Last week, writer/director Michael J. Bassett's (Solomon Kane) sequel, Silent Hill: Revelation 3D reportedly added newcomers Adelaide Clemens (X-Men Origins: Wolverine) and British actor Kit Harington (HBO's Game of Thrones) to the cast alongside the returning Sean Bean (Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring). In a press release, Silent Hill's Radha Mitchell and Deborah Kara Unger were also announced to be returning for the sequel. Said Bassett in the press release:
It wouldn't be the same without some of the original Silent Hill cast. Sean, Radha and Deborah's return will certainly thrill fans of the franchise and compliment Revelations stars Adelaide and Kit.

The Saints' lead didn't last long. Indianapolis came and took it back. But not to be outdone, New Orleans narrows the score to 17-16 although The Colts are ahead. 10 minutes into the 4th quarter and Indianapolis has the ball — and take it within field goal range. No goal! The Saints march the ball down field and Jeremy Shockey makes the TD! Saints lead again 24-17!
Five minutes left in the game and now that we're wrapping up; here's a little horror movie that saw air earlier. The Crazies is about a lawman (Timothy Olyphant), his wife (Radha Mitchell), and two companions fight to make it out of town alive after an unknown toxin turns ordinary citizens into bloodthirsty lunatics.
Tracy Porter for the New Orleans Saints intercepts a Payton Manning pass and runs it in 74 yards for the score. With the extra point it becomes 31-17 Saints! With only 3 minutes left, The Colts get it all the way down to the goal line but can't convert. That's all she wrote. Saints win!

Breck Eisner's remake of The Crazies has received three new posters depicting some of the infected townspeople from the movie. Eisner's The Crazies continues to look like it is going to be more of a zombie move than the original, as evidenced in the new trailer Overture Films has released online. Check it out below.
The Crazies opens February 26 and stars Timothy Olyphant, Radha Mitchell, and Danielle Panabaker.

This is a busy year for George Romero. Only two years removed from his last zombie epic, Diary of the Dead, Romero has been making the rounds at film festivals with his latest zombie flick, Survival of the Dead. However, there's another Romero movie out there as well, a remake of Romero's 1973 movie The Crazies, though Romero is only serving as Executive Producer. Breck Eisner (Sahara) is directing this Crazies from a script by Ray Wright (Pulse) and, no stranger to remakes, Scott Kosar (The Amityville Horror and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre).
While the remake is similar in plot to the original — townspeople slowly go insane after a contaminant is released in the city's water supply — both the new poster and the trailer of the remake look ironically more in keeping with the zombie genre than the Romero original, which focused more on the military's inability to control the situation than infected people chasing the non-infected.
The Crazies has a solid cast of horror actors with Timothy Olyphant (Scream 2), Radha Mitchell (Surrogates), Danielle Panabaker (Friday the 13th), and Justin Welborn (The Final Destination), and unlike Survival of the Dead, which is still currently seeking domestic distribution, The Crazies already has a release date in 2010's horror season. You know, February, the month where studios decide to release all their genre pictures to counteract the Oscar hangover.
Enjoy the trailer below:

In the future, we will live our lives even more vicariously than we already do — that's the basic story behind Surrogates, a cinematic vision of a world in which living life through your robotic avatar is so compelling that no one really wants to live an ordinary life inside his or her own body anymore. It is a world of seemingly unlimited fantasy devoid of any consequences. You can be as attractive as you like. You can be a man, or a woman. You can even die and come back again. A lot like Second Life, but with much better graphics. And it all feels real.
The movie's cast and crew try to make this vision of the future as compelling as possible in a new featurette laced with an assortment of eye candy from the movie. It is, they contend, a cautionary tale about the de-humanizing direction online life seems to be heading. Along the way, we are treated to glimpses of telephone booths repurposed as avatar charging stations, a Terminator-like avatar assembly line, and Bruce Willis — or at least his avatar — engaged in all sorts of Die Hard-like action.
