H.R. Giger enters The Gate...


Dread Central reports that Swiss surrealist H.R. Giger (Alien, Species) has signed on to design the creatures for Alex Winter's remake of The Gate (in 3D)! Alex will direct from a script written by himself and Kerric Macdonald...

The press kit for the film states that the film will be a PG-13 children's fantasy (just like the original), and that additional creatures were designed by Academy Award winning FX artist Randall William Cook...

About the film: When best friends Miles and Terry discover a mysterious crystalline rock in Miles's back yard, they quickly dig up the lawn in search of more. Instead, they unearth the Gate—the opening to an underground chamber containing terrifying evil.

The teenagers soon realize the horror they have unleashed, as one dire event follows another. With supernatural fiends invading suburbia, it's up to the kids to find the secret that will lock the Gate forever...if it's not too late.

Check out an early example of concept art below, and click here for more...
