Bloody Disgusting Selects’ Outcast and The Pack Headed to DVD in February, March

It seems that the Bloody Disgusting Selects series might have abandoned its initial plan of showing indie horror movies in select AMC Theaters locations. After sending six films to the big screen in 2001, its December release, Chop, went straight to DVD, and now comes word that the series’ next two entries will likewise head directly to home video. Those two are Outcast (February 21), a British film about a mother and son on the run from a mysterious man, and The Pack (March 6), a French film about a kidnapped woman who finds herself on the menu for a group of hideous creatures. Although the cinematic experience is nice, I’m just glad the series is still going strong, and I hope it continues to release quality genre movies — regardless of where they play.

The British horror movie Kill List is what the ill-fated 2006 remake of The Wicker Man should’ve been (i.e., good). It’s also one of the most divisive genre films in recent memory, in part because so much of it is left up to interpretation. Read about it in my review of Kill List.

Insidious Director, Star Re-Teaming for The Conjuring

Director James Wan and actor Patrick Wilson, who teamed for last year’s surprise hit Insidious, are joining forces for another ghostly flick. The Conjuring, according to The Hollywood Reporter, follows “a husband and wife team of demonologists and psychic investigators who enter the most horrifying case of their career, spirits in a Rhode Island farmhouse.” Vera Farmiga (Orphan) will play the wife in the equation. The story is based on real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren and their investigation of the legend of Bethesda Sherman, a witch who supposedly cursed anyone who took over her land after she died.

The Crow Remake Back on Track with New Director and Writer

It seems the remake of The Crow has more lives than the undead titular character. It’s gone through several iterations, with Stephen Norrington (Blade) and Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks Later) each attached to direct at one time or another and Bradley Cooper and Mark Wahlberg each tapped to star. On top of all the personnel shuffling, The Weinstein Company last year filed a lawsuit to to halt Relativity Media’s plans for the “reinvention.”
