Variety Pack... Horror Special...

Some interesting slices of news I found regarding some upcoming horror releases... indulge...

First of all... I just thought this was cool. I'm pretty stoked for David Fincher's upcoming thriller ZODIAC, scheduled for release January 19th, 2007. I was depressed when the rumors of a trailer being attached to The Departed were untrue until The Departed was over and I felt all zen-like. But none the less, here's a teaser poster which I think is an interesting shot considering it's a film about a serial killer... it leaves a lot to the imaginiation but successfully develops some intrigue.

And then last night at The Scream Awards an official trailer for the upcoming Quentin Tarintino/Robert Rodriguez collaboration (aka EGO-showcase) Grindhouse was premiered. (Not to send any mixed signals... I like Rodriguez a lot and I think Tarantino is only slightly over rated- but the idea behind this "highly anticipated" horror film seems pretty far fetched and unneccesary, to me. Nonetheless, the trailer looks sure to appease fans of at least Rodriguez, (I don't think there was any footage of Tarantino's contribution.) Rodriguez directed the hour long segment Planet Terror, while Tarantino's segment is entitled Death Proof... the two films are connected with a series of fake horror trailers. Grindhouse is due out sometime next year.

Next we have an interesting tidbit for fans of the Saw franchise. As fans, and nonfans alike all probably know the third installment opens wide October 27th. Promotional heads over at Lionsgate brainstormed the brilliant idea of making a limited edition poster to sell on their website for $20. The image is that of actor Tobin Bell (the Jigsaw killer) cloaked in a bright red hood which was colored using his very own blood. Eerie? Perhaps. Appropriate? Sure... Well intentioned? ABSOLUTELY... all proceeds from the sale of these posters go to the American Red Cross.

So to sum up... it's a creepy idea, but you gotta admire their angle.
