Dimension Extreme, the genre home video label on Dimension Films (which is, in turn, part of The Weinstein Company), released a string of high-profile horror releases in 2007 and 2008 -- including Mother of Tears, Diary of the Dead, Black Sheep, Inside, Teeth, Rogue, Eden Lake, Storm Warning, The Killing Gene and sequels to Pulse and Feast -- but abruptly ceased its hectic release schedule early in 2009. Now, like a zombie rising from the grave, Dimension Extreme is back!

Locke & Key, a TV adaptation of the Joe Hill (Stephen King's son) comic book, wasn't picked up by Fox for its fall schedule and despite reports of it being considered by CW and SyFy, it appears to be dead in the water...Or is it? Publisher IDW has arranged a screening of the pilot episode at this year's Comic-Con on July 22, ostensibly to "show you just what a void there will be on your TVs this fall," but you have to wonder if the company hopes it kick-starts something more.

Some casting news of note for several upcoming projects:
- Scott Foley (Scream 3, Grey's Anatomy) will play a major role on True Blood that kicks off in this season's final episode and continues into next season. (Can you say "cliffhanger"?) According to TV Line, Foley will play Patrick, "a tough and ruggedly attractive old army buddy of Terry's." No doubt there's more there than meets the eye...
- Idris Elba (Obsessed, Prom Night, The Unborn) has been hired to take over the role in Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim that was originally developed for Tom Cruise. The film, about humans using giant robots to fight off giant monsters, sounds a bit like Cloverfield meets Transformers.
- Veteran character actor Pruitt Taylor Vince (Drive Angry, Constantine, Identity) has joined the cast of The Walking Dead for the upcoming season, playing, according to TV Guide, an "easygoing but racist survivor." I guess he can take the place of Merle, the non-easygoing racist from the first season.

Originally, the Japanese film Cold Fish was slated to occupy the July slot in the Bloody Disgusting Selects monthly release schedule, but now that film has been pushed back to August in favor of Phase 7, an apocalyptic Argentinian flick about a man seeking to protect his pregnant wife during a pandemic. Phase 7 lands in select theaters (listed here) on July 13. In the meantime, check out the trailer.
