Criterion Collection announced this week that it will release a new special edition two disc set of Dreyer's 1932 classic VAMPYR. Though sometimes hard to follow the film Carl Theodor Dreyer created is one no true fan of the horror classics should miss. The plot focuses on a student of the occult who finds himself involved in the supernatural mysteries surrounding an inn outside Paris. The

Bloody-Disgusting.com has learned that THE WOLFMAN will now be released April 3, 2009. This is two months later than it's original February date. I suspect the sudden Director change added to the delay. If you haven't seen the original 1941 WOLFMAN in a while take another look. It is one of the most tragic horror tales and a true classic.

For those who did not find these exclusive Entertainment Weekly photos I present the link. I am so excited and happy to see that they have returned to the more "wolfman" style as opposed to the "werewolf" style that is now the norm. Rick Baker has created an amazing look and has let Benicio Del Toro still shine through. Enjoy!

WOLFMAN has a new director, Joe Johnston. Though this may not have been the most exciting of the contenders it really came down to finding a director who's ego would allow them to step into a film that already has a concept and direction of another director. Joe Johnston started out as an art director on among other things-EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK and RETURN OF THE JEDI. His

Update on THE WOLF MAN. Right now it seems Brett Ratner is out, while The Hollywood Reporter and Ain't It Cool News have listed the directors currently playing hot potato with the wolfs bane. In no particular order they are: Bill Condon, although he most recently directed DREAMGIRLS, not too long ago he made the brilliant tribute to the greatest of the original Universal monster directors James

The upcoming Universal remake of THE WOLFMAN is on track with cast and preproduction in place and is scheduled to begin filming in about three weeks. The problem is the attached director, Mark Romanek (One Hour Photo), has walked. Now Universal begins the mad scramble to find a director available and willing to step in on such short notice. Rumors are flying in Brett Ratner's direction much to
