Cursed Films

There have actually been many films that have a supposed "curse" on them that has affected the production, and even the cast and crew. The most famous are probably the Poltergeist series, "The Exorcist", "The Crow", and "The Omen." It is rumored that cast member have died because of the curses. Supposedly, there is something out there that did not want these movies to be made.
In 1982, Steven Spielberg and Tobe Hooper released the horror hit "Poltergeist", which spawned two sequels and even a television series. The trilogy comprises of "Poltergeist" (1982), "Poltergeist II: The Other Side" (1986), and "Poltergeist III" (1988). Each film recounts an episode in the lives of the Freelings, a family who unfortunately moves into a house filled with evil spirits.
But beneath the ghosts on screen, there is something even more chilling. An unusually large amount of deaths have accured among the former cast of the movies. These deaths have risen the rumor that the productions were cursed due to the stories of the films. It was as if the monsters of the movie world were claiming victims of our world where monsters don't exist. Although coincidence would be a much more common response, four of the cast members have died from this trilogy, two were expected, the other two were not.
22-year-old Dominique Dunne (Donna Freeling) died on November 4th, 1982 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. It was four days after her boyfriend choked her into a coma from which she never awoke. A few weeks earlier, Dunne had ended her abusive relationship with Los Angeles chef John Sweeney. On the night of October 30th, 1982, he dropped by their former shared residence to plead with her to take him back. The visit did not go as he had hoped, and with what he thought was going to be a quiet conversation, ended with him strangling her for what was later determined to be 4 to 6 minutes, then leaving her for dead in her driveway.
Sweeney was convicted of voluntary manslaughter, sentenced in November, 1983, and released in 1986 after serving only 3 years, 8 months of a 6 and a half year sentence. His sentence is controversial to this day.
"Poltergeist", the film in which Dunne appeared, had been released earlier that year, in June.
12-year-old Heather O'Rourke (Carol Anne Freeling) died of septic shock in on February 1, 1988 at the Children's Hospital in San Diego. What had been thought to be a bout of ordinary flu launched her into cardiac arrest during the drive to the hospital as bacterial toxins set loose by a bowel obstruction made their way into her bloodstream. Her heart was successfully restarted and she was flown by helicopter to the larger Children's Hospital where she underwent an operation to remove the obstruction. The toxins destroying her system proved too much, and she died on the operating table.

Are You Cursed or Are You First

I was sitting at a benefit dinner as the speaker was interrupted, the final scores were announced, and everyone cheered. That night the Red Sox made history! In the American League Championship Series they became the first team in Major League baseball to come back from being down 3 games to win the series against the Yankees with 4 straight wins. Then, with another 4 straight wins, they swept the Cardinals for their first World Series in 86 years.Best yet, they overcame a powerful belief. They shifted from “Cursed” to “First”. Awesome! As my friend, Mark West, shared with me, “Not since Babe Ruth played with the Boston Red Sox have they won a World Series. They called it the curse of the Babe when, after they won the 1918 World Series, the Red Sox owner sold The Babe to the New York Yankees. The Red Sox had not won a World Series until now.”
As an extra added touch, Mark told me that the Captain of the 1980 Olympics ice-hockey team, inspiring the movie Miracle, sent each team member a MIRACLE t-shirt after their ALCS comeback. Sometimes we need to be inspired to believe in our greatest possibilities, potentials, and powers for success. Most of all, we just need to believe in miracles. We need to believe they can happen for us.
The Red Sox moved from “I can’t” to “I can” to “I AM”!!! They moved from Cursed to First! They created their miracle.
If they can do it, you can do it.
Now, the truth is that I don’t know what sparked their comeback or inspired them to live their dreams. I don’t know what mighty force catapulted them to their great success. I DO know that something important shifted their consciousness, their beliefs that they ARE winners!
In our own lives, we may be taken out of our game by something small or something seemingly large. We may believe we are somehow “cursed”. Beliefs or memories from the past can come back to haunt us and hold us back from stepping into our true power and prosperity. Sometimes we listen to the people around us who think in a world of lack and limitation. We may even allow those people who play small to keep us from playing large and embracing all the abundance and unlimited wealth that surrounds us.
Some people may feel they’re not worthy or deserving of success and prosperity. Let me be clear – if you’re here, you ARE worthy and you DO deserve. Your wealth and success is not related to deserving, it is based entirely on your consciousness.
What you believe is what you receive.
I wasn’t in the locker room and I wasn’t at the team meetings, so I don’t know if visualizing played a role in their success. I DO know that visualization is a key ingredient for many sports teams and individuals. Pat Riley of the Los Angeles Lakers visualized with his winning team regularly in the 1980’s. Jack Nicklaus has said that he’s never taken a shot without visualizing it first. J.K. Rowling constantly visualized “instant fame and fortune” for Harry Potter and herself as she wrote her celebrated series.

Cursed Movies Done Right

That fact, combined with my unexplainable love for werewolf movies, is why I was so excited when I first learned Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson were ramping up to film a new lycanthrope flick in the early part of the aughts.
The film stared Christina Ricci and Jesse Eisenberg as two siblings who must face the curse of the werewolf after they are injured by a beast.
From all initial reports, Cursed seemed it could very well be the greatest thing to come for horror movie fans since the image of Sam Raimi miraculously appeared on the cloak of Mexican villager Juan Diego in 1531.
Cut to February of 2005 where I’m the only person sitting in an opening night screening of what turned out to be an almost inexcusably jumbled mess of a film. That night I cried like I was a country western song character and my hound dog had just gotten run over by my ex as she stole my pick-up truck.
So what went wrong for the two creators of the ‘90s biggest horror movie franchise?
It would be easy to blame the colossal failure of the film on the Weinstein Brothers’ insistence to release Cursed as a PG-13 film instead of the R-rated horror film that had been shot. This claim is not easily backed-up, though.
Having seen both the 97-minute theatrical cut and the 99-minute unrated cut, the added gore and dismemberment included in the unrated cut does not do much to improve the general movie-watching experience. In fact, the overabundance of CGI wounds and gore actually increase the chances that audiences will laugh at the film instead of jumping. It’s hard to take any film seriously that insists on having a geyser of computer-generated blood spray from a character’s neck like an Old Faithful tribute designed by Tom Savani’s nerdy little brother.
No, even before the Weinsteins had the film re-edited to attract high school students, the film suffered its share of problems.
In fact, production on the movie was halted for nearly a year as script problems were worked out. When the movie resumed production, a ton of footage was completely scrapped — footage that included performances by eventual non-cast members Skeet Ulrich, Mandy Moore, Omar Epps, Illeana Douglas, Scott Foley and Corey Feldman.
In the end, I think Cursed’s biggest problem was that Williamson and Craven bought too many shares of their own hype. While Scream was fresh due to its tongue-in-cheek meta-referential nods to the horror genre, Cursed overdid the camp — resulting in a movie that fails as a horror movie due to its unwillingness to shake the silly but never quite succeeds as a comedy either.
When you have a werewolf appear out of nowhere to give cops a middle finger, it’s very hard to take the movie seriously when it then tries to become dark and brooding five minutes later.
It’s a shame that the film couldn’t rise above its sub-par script. The movie featured some pretty decent performances by its cast which included Joshua Jackson, Shannon Elizabeth, Milo Ventimiglia, Portia de Rossi and Judy Greer — with cameos from Scott Baio and Craig Kilborn as themselves.
Jesse Eisenberg’s performance as Jimmy Myers is especially good — essentially a preview of what would later be his biggest hit to date, Zombieland. As a nebbish young man navigating the supernatural, Eisenberg is plenty funny — in that Michael Cera-sorta way.
There have been a lot of werewolf movies in the last few decades. Most of them have been terrible. Cursed could have broken free from the curse that seems to strike films about shapechangers but, in the end, it failed due to its instance on being cute instead of scary.

Ethan Hawke Joins Colin Farrell in Total Recall Remake

According to Heat Vision, Ethan Hawke will appear in the forthcoming remake ofTotal Recall, starring Colin Farrell.
Details about Hawke’s role are being kept secret for the time being, but according to THR it is only a cameo.
Hawke, of course, is no stranger to science fiction and genre films, having appeared in both Gattaca and, more recently, the vampire film Daybreakers.
Total Recall is based on the 1990 Paul Verhoeven adaptation of the short Philip K. Dick story, “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale.” The original starred Arnold Schwarzenegger as Douglas Quaid (to be played by Colin Farrell in this version), a man haunted by a recurring dream of journeying to Mars who buys a literal dream vacation from a company called Rekall Inc., which sells implanted memories.
As the story unfolds, the man comes to believe he is a secret agent and ends up on a Martian colony, where he fights to overthrow a despotic ruler controlling the production of air.
Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel are in negotiations for the female leads in the film, which will shoot in Toronto beginning in June.
The Len Wiseman-helmed film is slated to open theatrically on August 3, 2012.

Edward Zwick Directs American Assassin

Those of us who are fans of director Edward Zwick’s films — from his more recent efforts such as The Last Samuraiand Blood Diamond to the excellence that was 1989′s Glory — have cause to be excited today. CBS Films as announced that the Oscar-winner has inked a deal to direct a feature adaptation of the Vince Flynn best-selling novel “American Assassin”.
Zwick has adapted the screenplay himself alongside Last Samurai writer/producer Marshall Herskovitz.
“The Mitch Rapp novels are as thrilling and entertaining as they are relevant,”said Zwick, “and I am delighted to be given the opportunity to translate them to the screen.”
Here’s the official description of the story:
American Assassin tells the story of legendary CIA agent Mitch Rapp. Long before he began hunting terrorists, Rapp was a gifted college scholar/athlete. Then, tragedy struck and Rapp was recruited into the nation’s most elite covert operations program. After completing training designed to teach the kind of lethal skills necessary to target our most dangerous enemies, here and abroad, he is a man reborn with a mission of retribution.
Zwick and Herskovitz will also produce, alongside Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Transformers, RED) and Nick Wechsler (The Road, We Own The Night).
“American Assassin” marks the eleventh entry in the author’s series. Another adaptation, “Consent to Kill” is also in development by CBS Films.

George Clooney’s The Descendants Trailer Bows

Vin Diesel has revealed that the long-in-development ‘Riddick 3′ is scheduled to begin filming this summer. On hisFacebook page, the actor said that the movie has been greenlit, but he will need to take a reduction in salary to realize the project.
Diesel earned about $15M for Fast Five, but with the choice to make the next Riddick film R-rated, the resulting limited audience will likely mean less dollars at the box office. Thus, Diesel may have to wait to see the tallies before he realizes any real money.
Complicating matters is the actor’s attachment to an action-comedy calledThe Machine, from the producers of The Pacifier, which could create a scheduling conflict with a potential Riddick project. Then there’s the actor’s own reservations about revisiting the Riddick franchise.
“[David Twohy] the writer/director just landed in New York with the good news. We can start filming this summer,” the actor explained. “However, there is a catch… In order for us to make a true R-rated film, I must work for scale upfront. Money is always second to art, integrity and spirit, but the real issue is deeper. Can I suspend my life, to momentarily venture to that dark place called Riddick?”
Later, Diesel added:
“I am off to another meeting with David, the director of Riddick, to see concept art and discuss the potential schedule.”
Do you think it’s time for Diesel to leave Riddick behind, or are you pining for another film?

New Look at David Tenant from Fright Night Remake

You probably recall that DreamWorks has been filming a remake of the 1985 cult film Fright Night. Word is that the new film will remain true to the frightening but fun spirit of the original, which starred Chris Sarandon, William Ragsdale, Amanda Bearse and the late, great Roddy McDowall. What this really means is thatFright Night will not morph into Twilight.
We’re interested already.Meanwhile, two new images have been released from the film, courtesy of DreamWorks, including a look at Doctor Who veteran David Tennant as Las Vegas magician and all-around vampire hunter Peter Vincent. Check them out to your left and below.
According to rumors, DreamWorks is planning a big PR push for the film just around the corner, doubtless hoping to capitalize on the big summer movie season that is almost upon us. Some strategically-placed trailers in front of the upcoming tentpoles ought to do it.
Official Synopsis: Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood.
Craig Gillespie (forthcoming Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Lars and the Real Girl) helms the remake, from a script by Buffy the Vampire Slayer veteran writer Marti Noxon.
