Seems like our Sean has hit a bump...:(

Just spin I'm sure, Keller's movie will surely be Carpenter's next... I hope. In my opinion Carpenter really needs a good script to get him back in the game as a few of his more recent projects have been less than stellar.

I hope things can be ironed out for Sean's sake.

it's part of Hollywood. He's attached to direct. It takes quite a bit of time and effort to get the moeny in place when funding a film independently. Not a huge deal, it'll all work out.

He said "not sure" GOTHIC was next for him, not that he isn't doing the film.

Well, thanks for the update Sean.

We all have our fingers crossed...hopefully things will work out for the best and JC does LA Gothic after all. I am very excited to see it. :)



In other news...


- Yesterday, Bloody Disgusting reported that the Weinstein Company is seeking a new director for their remake of Hellraiser.

What's not clear yet is whether or not Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury - who directed the astounding French horror film Inside - are officially off the project. What could have happened to leave Dimension seeking a director? More news as it comes...keep watching this thread.
