** KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE remake: Ryan Gosling will produce a film remake of KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPAC at Amazon MGM Studios. The 1988 cult classic sci-fi horror comedy received positive reviews at the time and follows a clan of evil extraterrestrials who resemble clowns.

Attempts have been made over the years to either make a sequel or remake the property as a film or TV series, all have stalled over the years. Back in 2023, the original film's director Stephen Chiodo had hopes for an eight-episode limited series that would end up on the clown planet at one point. The one successful revival of the property in recent years came in the form of an asymmetrical survival horror video game released last year to mixed/positive reviews. (thanks to DarkHorizons.com)

** WEAPONS and BARBARIAN linked: One of the most raved-about reveals at CinemaCon this year was the first footage from BARBARIAN breakout director Zach Cregger's new film WEAPONS which opens in August.

Warner Bros. Pictures has started the marketing campaign for the movie and while there aren't yet any official stills with cast, or any trailers for that matter, the studio has launched a website named MaybrookMissing.net disclosing some more information about the film's story.

Written like a newspaper article, a description goes into the film's central mystery in which seventeen children wake up and voluntarily walk out the front door of their homes at 2:17am one morning – inexplicably disappearing without a trace. The site also includes a text link to another article headlined "Underground Prison Discovered in Rental Home" which goes into an article going into the events of 2022's BARBARIAN.

This has led to plenty of speculation that the films are connected with WEAPONS set in the same universe as BARBARIAN, and could even potentially tie-in to that film somehow. Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich and Benedict Wong star in WEAPONS which opens in cinemas on August 8th. (thanks to DarkHorizons.com)

** A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET PART 2: From Jack Sholder: "I just spent last week on the Warners lot working on the restoration of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2. The remastered 4K picture off the original 35mm negative looks fantastic, and I was able to make adjustments and corrections only possible thanks to the incredible digital tools now available. The original mono mix from 42 years ago(!) was brought into Dolby Atmos and blew me out of my seat. I heard things in Chris Young's score I never knew were there and that, combined with some added sound fx work, really lift the film into another dimension.

We were careful not to change the look and feel of the film, but even the rather lame scene with the exploding parakeet felt like THE BIRDS. The whole experience was like someone restoring an old Renaissance painting and finally seeing the amazing blue that the painter had used, or the cat now seen hiding behind the table, although in this case, those colors and sounds had never fully been seen before but were implicit in the material and now are explicit. Warners also shot some interviews for the new release and I got to see my old buddy Robert Englund whose performance now jumps off the screen. Keep an eye out for announcements of the release from WB. The new version really needs to be experienced by new fans and re-experienced by old ones"

** AMERICAN PSYCHO remake: Filmmaker Luca Guadagnino appeared on screen during Lionsgate's presentation at CinemaCon on Tuesday and teased his new adaptation of author Bret Easton Ellis' AMERICAN PSYCHO. In a video speech to the crowd, the director said: "We are really working hard to bring to the screen a new adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' AMERICAN PSYCHO, a book that I deeply love that is something that influenced me so much."

He then confirmed that Scott Z. Burns, the film's writer, is "doing an incredible job" and that "the script is coming out very handsomely." He also confirmed that conversations are underway with "very exciting performers to play the leads."

Frenesy Films is backing the project which is expected to be a whole new take on the novel, as opposed to a remake of director Mary Herron's previous film adaptation in 2000 starring Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman. (thanks to DarkHorizons.com)

** CARRIE TV series: Milly Shapiro, who had a memorable role as the younger sister in HEREDITARY, has reportedly scored the title role in filmmaker Mike Flanagan's upcoming TV series based on Stephen King's CARRIE. In addition, Flanagan regular Samantha Sloyan (HUSH) is also in talks to star as Carrie's mother Margaret. A writer's room for the series is set to open soon with the title being produced by Amazon MGM Studios for its Prime Video service.

King's first novel and published in 1974, the story follows a shy girl, tormented by an abusive mother and bullies at school, who develops telekinetic powers and takes revenge on her tormentors. The property was adapted into the famed 1976 Brian DePalma film which scored a widely panned 1999 sequel, and was followed by a mixed-reviewed remake of the original in 2013.
