Say hello to my little remake! – Scarface remake gets a new writer!

October 17, 2012By

Scarface

That rumored Scarface remake inched closer to reality when a writer got attached. Paul Attanasio is set to rewrite the David Ayer script. Now, before all you people with Scarface posters and underoos get upset, remember the beloved film that you hero worship Tony Montana for is a remake itself. Universal is careful to say this isn’t a remake or sequel, but a film that takes the common elements of the first two films about an immigrant entering a criminal organization and taking it over through violence and ambition.

So basically a remake.

Just don’t tell Universal that if they say a remake isn’t a remake, it’s still a remake. Because they’ll probably respond with several paragraphs of brain-melding garbage that if deciphered will be a road map explaining everything wrong with Hollywood ever. I do hope they don’t decide to reuse the element from the original Scarface that caused Harold Lloyd’s brother Gaylord Lloyd to be shot in the eye with live ammunition while visiting the set.

Son of Ernest to reboot Ernest P. Worrell

October 15, 2012By

Now, I love me a good Ernest movie. I’ve been known to get a hot cup of miak and watch commercial compilation videos. But that doesn’t mean I want another Ernest P. Worrell. I even reject those CGI Ernest commercials, and that one commercial done by the guy who wasn’t Jim Varney.

So when Son of Ernest was announced but a little bit ago, I was understandably angry. But then, why was I angry? It’s not like the Ernest movies are considered high art or anything. They’re escapist fun as we follow a good-hearted dolt and his wacky misadventures. The reason we do like the Ernest films is Jim Varney’s charisma. Now, if you get a likeable person into a roll that is respectful but not an imitation, then you have a way of bringing Ernest back without all the mess. John R. Cherry III is behind this, he co-created the character along with Varney for commercial spots and directed almost all the films. At the very least, he should keep it from getting too terrible. Maybe. Dan Ewen is set to write the script.

The correct way to do Son of Ernest is a way that follows the legacy of the father. Make Ernest Jr save something that his dad saved, like Kamp Kikakee, and through that learns about his father. And please don’t make Ernest a deadbeat dad.

One thing this has done is make me want to rewatch all the old Ernest films, which I have scattered around in various boxes. Time to go digging!

Gatorshark vs Zombie Cheerleaders – Suck on this, Walking Dead!

October 14, 2012By

Gatorshark vs Zombie Cheerleaders

Gatorshark vs Zombie Cheerleaders is a flick in preproduction that I heard about thanks to the wonderful news source of them following me on twitter. Their official site is a facebook page, with the synopsis

A half-shark half-alligator creature wreaks havoc at a cheerleader camp full of hot & sexy brain eating zombie cheerleaders.

And some neat artwork. There is also casting news, so Gatorshark vs Zombie Cheerleaders is actually happening and is not just one of the films that maybe one day will get around to doing a kickstarter that also follow me. Bob Madia is writing, and the announced cast so far is Tara Beaulieu from Naked News fame as Jennifer, Trisha Paytas as Kendra, Jade Bryce as Caren, and Kristen Kelly as Chantal. Aside from that, there isn’t much info until the film starts shooting at the beginning of next year, and the writer promised nudity (that would probably not make it to tv if the film was on SyFy.)

The only question to as is with Gatorshark vs Zombie Cheerleaders combining four things together, who will be the brave movie pioneer with an X vs Y vs Z movie title? That day will happen.

Age of Hobbits Trailer!

October 14, 2012By


Asylum’s Age of Hobbits director Joseph Lawson stopped by to personally let us now that the Age of Hobbits trailer dropped, and we couldn’t be more grateful here at TarsTarkas.NET, because this looks like it could be very interesting. Hobbits, Bai Ling, Christopher Judge, and flying komodo dragons!!!!

In an ancient age, the small, peace-loving Hobbits are enslaved by the Java Men, a race of flesh-eating dragon-riders. The young Hobbit Goben must join forces with their neighbor giants, the humans, to free his people and vanquish their enemies

It comes out December 11th, and won’t be split into three movies just to add a bunch of random stuff!

Age of the Hobbits

Easily better than Eragon!

Smiley is a film people actually made, based on 4chan memes

October 14, 2012By

Hi, folks, if you’re like me, then you want your internet as far away as possible from movies. But someone doesn’t know this simple fact of life, and set out to create a dumb slasher movie jam packed with 4chan memes and serious Hollywood actors reading awful internet catchphrases. Smiley is the complete opposite of win. It’s…non-win! /b/, Pedobear, Candyman ripoff, lulz, all mixed together like a stew of Epic Fail. This thing is an abomination of awfulness.

I’ll try to track down a copy.

Tuesday Never Comes (1993)

October 14, 2012By

Tuesday Never Comes

Directed by Jason Holt
This is going to be a review that begs for the angry comment. Once I misinterpreted a character’s inflection in Beauty and The Boss (1932) over at my blog and I got a three paragraph response which basically called me an Obama/Bush-loving atrocity-condoning socialist.

I need that here. I need someone to point out to me what actually happens in Tuesday Never Comes and I need them to do it quick because this may be a wholly inaccurate review and I’ll never know about it. Then again, anyone else watching may come across a different interpretation by design; maybe this movie is whatever you want it to be.

The reason for the confusion is that a good three quarters of the dialogue in this film is muffled beyond recognition. The other quarter is either screamed or comes from a man who has what can generously be called ‘the fakest Irish accent in the world’. By comparison he makes Chief O’Hara sound vaguely Russian.

Zack (Jason Holt) – You know the leprechaun who shills for Lucky Charms cereal? Now imagine someone made a movie about him where he’s an assassin who’s into dirty sex and crack cocaine. Not enough for you? Now imagine he’s played by the guy who directed the film, so his performance is completely uninhibited. Scary, right?
Mecelli (Erik Estrada) – Estrada is in full scenery chewing mode as he pretty much plays Robert DeNiro in The Untouchables; hell, he even kills a goon with a sporting implement, though here it’s a golf club. He also enjoys the company of women, running drugs, rubbing guns up and down, and laughing maniacally.
Michelle (Karen Black) – Cross eyed, Academy Award nominee Karen Black needs some money to satisfy her crack habit, so she sleeps around to get it. And I presume that’s what her character is doing in the film as well.
