Phantasm and Dead Things update

Phantasm & Dead Things Update
Source: Icons of Fright
October 25, 2005


Icons of Fright talked to both Don Coscarelli and Bob Clark about such projects as Phantasm, a Bubba Ho-Tep sequel and a Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things remake. Here are some highlights thanks to the site:

-The widely reported rumor that New Line is going to be producing a new Phantasm trilogy is NOT true! Apparently, it was a premature leak and the deal did not pan out for whatever reasons. Coscarelli said he would definitely like to do them because he loves working with Reggie and Angus, but wants to wait for the right studio that will treat the franchise respectfully. Good for you, Don!
-He fully intends on doing a sequel to Bubba Ho-Tep, it's just a matter of "when". He said Bruce loved being Elvis and he's rarin' to go again! He also told mea fact involving The King and kung-fu! Did you know that he was like an 8th Degree black belt in karate and he sparred in dojo's with the Memphis Mafia, who let him kick the crap outta them because, after all, he's The King? All true!

Director Bob Clark is making steady progress with his Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things remake. Actor Adam Beach, previously seen opposite Nick Cage in Windtalkers and recently cast in the new Clint Eastwood WWII movie, has been confirmed as the male lead. Clark intends on remaining true to the original movie's spirit, while updating it slightly with a few interesting twists for today's audiences. This time around, a group of filmmakers head out to shoot at an old mansion on an island with a bizarre past. Ghouls show up, calamity ensues with a heapin' dollop of humor.

"Other films have handled zombies with comedy before, but in those movies it's the humans that are comedic in the way they react to the zombies. Well, we wanted a fresh approach, so in this one I want to show our ghouls living it up, doing the funny stuff while the people run around horrified! It's going to be outrageous and frightening, but we're also having fun with the genre. Think Monty Python with zombies!" says Clark.
