Hellraiser "Reboot" Director wants movie to remain "Faithful and Transgressive"
Director Pascal Laugier told Sci-Fi Online that he wants to be "faithful to the book and Clive Barker's world" - Grimpuppy"The reboot of Hellraiser is one of my projects," said Laugier. "I was lucky enough to sign for three or four various projects in Hollywood and we'll see which one happens first," said Laugier.
"The idea behind Hellraiser is not to do a remake - it's to do what they call a reboot - that is to say a new version. So what I am proposing to Dimension, the studio behind Hellraiser, is some elements coming from the first film mixed with brand new stuff.
"My main problem, honestly, with the Hellraiser reboot is that Hellraiser is very transgressive material - it deals with S&M, and gay issues, and I really want to be faithful to the book and Clive Barker's world - I don't want to betray him. So if I have the feeling that I am being asked by Hollywood to soften the franchise I will leave in a blink."

'Freddie Krueger' to remake Soviet horror classic 'Viy'
Robert Englund, better known as the long-nailed psychopath Freddie Krueger of the Nightmare on Elm Street films, is to remake a Soviet horror classic.'Viy' is a 1967 Soviet film based on the short story of the same name by Nikolai Gogol, in which a young man accidentally kills a witch and is then forced to spend three nights in a church with her coffin. At the end of the film, Viy appears, a hulking monster whose eyelids are so heavy that they have to be opened by accompanying demons.
"The shooting of the film will begin in Italy in 2009," a source involved in the remake of the Soviet classic told RIA Novosti.
The film, the source said, is also likely to be filmed in a village near Lazio.
The original film, the first horror movie to be made in the Soviet Union, has been the subject of a curse rumor since its release. Natalya Varlei, the actress who played the witch in the film, has spoken of a "bad period" in her life after the completion of the film. The original actress cast in the role fell ill after getting the part, and withdrew from the project.
The church in the film, located in present day Ukraine, burned down in 2006.
Englund has been reported by Italian media as saying he likes the film for its elements of "Gothic fantasy."

Yoo Talks New Jason in Friday the 13th

Actor Aaron Yoo is no stranger to the horror genre having starred in DreamWorks' 2007 hit thriller Disturbia with Shia LaBeouf, but next year, he's one of the young stars going back to basics when he stars in Platinum Dunes' relaunch of the classic slasher franchise Friday the 13th.
In Toronto for the premiere of his new movie Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Yoo told ShockTillYouDrop.com a few things about the upcoming remake.
"I think the biggest difference is that Jason is fast, and he's realistic," he began. "It's not the kind of horror movie where stalk slowly, run fast and somebody catches up, there's none of the teleportation thing (from past movies)...the basic storyline idea of Jason is the same, and he's got this 2 and a half foot machete."
Along with John Carpenter's Halloween, the original Friday the 13th, released 28 years ago, created some of the horror cliches that have been diligently followed in so many other teen horror movies, including most of the previous Jason Voorhees movies where we know exactly who's going to die. We wondered if the same was going to be true for Yoo's character, who presumably plays the funny guy who never survives a slasher flick. (And there's a fairly big SPOILER WARNING in his response.)
"There are horror conventions that are there because they work. Like when my characters goes to this toolshed by himself, you know what's going to happen, that's partially the point. I spent 14 hours covered, covered, covered in fake blood and that is the worst situation you could ever be in...it's the grossest. But yeah, from what I'm hearing and what we were trying to do, is that it might be one of the most well-made horror movies that you'll see. I'm hearing really, really good things about it. We're calling it 'F13' and I don't know if that will actually wind up being a tagline for it, but I know our Platinum Dunes guys, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form, they did Texas Chainsaw Massacre, they told me this is the best movie they've made."
Considering the raging debates that have surrounded movies like Zack Snyder's remake of Dawn of the Dead in terms of "slow zombies" vs. "fast zombies", we wondered whether the same sort of debat...es might surround the new movie. "I don't know what kind of stuff it's going to start. I've always loved horror movies and they took a piece to Comic Con, and it just struck me how crazy and rabidpeople who love horror movies, it's a really big obsession," Yoo said.
