Simon West to direct the 14th century set action-fantasy WAR WOLF
Simon West may not be the most prolific director, but when he’s stepped behind the camera he’s delivered some solidly entertaining movies with titles like Con Air, The General’s Daughter, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and, more recently, The Mechanic and The Expendables 2 under his belt; and I’m quite intrigued by his next project – the action-fantasy War Wolf. The official story …
Director Simon West talks THE BLOB remake – 'More along the lines of Alien and Predator'
I’m sort of torn over a remake of The Blob. On the one hand, I kinda feel that the monster has been through enough already in the original 1958 film, it’s 1972 sequel and the underrated 1988 remake. On the other hand, I kind of do want to see what Simon West has planned when he hurls a ton of …
Stay in the fridge! A remake of THE BLOB is on the way!
For some reason, I have a sfot gooey center in my caustic being when it comes to The Blob. Not the 1958 version starring Steve McQueen but the remake of that from 1988 that had terrific suspense, fantastically terrible acting and special effects that sold the movie in an age before CGI become popular. It’s a magnificent horror movie, and …
Always bet on Jason Statham in this trailer for WILD CARD
Jason Statham hasn’t had a great run at the box office lately. Over the last couple of years, he’s starred in a ton of crap that was worthy of a direct-to-DVD release. Which is a shame, because Statham is a plenty competent actor and one of the finest action stars in Hollywood. He’s like Steven Seagal, minus the daily diet …
This trailer for WILD CARD is not violent, it's just good at it
Jason Statham is a simple man. That’s no hit on his intelligence, but rather his acting niche. You have a movie where some morally reprehensible person with a dubious goatee is being a big old meanie to somebody (mostly cute kids, spunky teens or attractive middle-aged women) and you need their foreheads to be violently introduced to the business end of …
Director Simon West wants to see CON-AIR 2 set in space
It wouldn’t be a Thursday afternoon at this office without the gang re-enacting scenes from the greatest movie of 1997, Con Air. Usually, that results in terrible accents, an intern being mangled in our impromptu aircraft and Nick being set alight while Kervyn threatens stuffed toys. It’s the kind of film that is just perfect as a done-in-one experience. But …
