Ridley Scott talks Alien prequels...

Legendary director Ridley Scott spoke with the Independent recently about what you can expect from his forthcoming Alien prequels, to be shot in 3D...

"Jim's raised the bar, and I've got to jump to it," Ridley told the site. "He's not going to get away with it. The film will be really tough, really nasty. It's the dark side of the moon. We are talking about gods and engineers. Engineers of space. And were the aliens designed as a form of biological warfare? Or biology that would go in and clean up a planet?"

Sounds Lovecraftian to me...

More News about MoM

And I wish it sounded more promising. I sent these links to Craig tonight, but I couldn't wait to post them because I was curious to see what people thought:

MoviesBlog mentioning a script review of MoM: http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2010/08/30/at-the-mountains-of-madness-script-review-appears-online/

And here is the review itself: http://templeofghoul.blogspot.com/2010/08/at-mountains-of-madness-script-review.html

As you can see above if you scroll down far enough the review is supposed to be for a leaked script that was fake (and that Lawyers supposedly had Twitch Film take it down).

Some part of me is upset...I was hoping for this film to finally be a solid adaptation of a Lovecraft story without any cheese or campiness.

Updated: The Oklahoma Horror Film Fest is today...

I will be attending the Oklahoma Horror Film Fest today, so if your there, stop by and say hi! Just look for the shirt with tentacles on it!

Update: Day one is over, and a good time was had by all! Will be wearing my Strange Aeons shirt today! Hope to see you there...
