Brian Yuzna

Oh my! There's film news and there's super-good film news, and this little tidbit certainly falls into the latter. Has anyone ever told you I love 3D movies (yeah, you, every time you see me)? Ok, I probably did tell ya before, but 3D movies are one of my most favouritest things for giving a bit of kiddified magic into the piss and shit world of adulthood. Well, a less well-known fact could be that I also really rather adore Brian Yuzna for having a hand in some of my fave horrors (Society, Re-Animator, The Dentist, Necronomicon, Dagon,) ergo, with all the remake/sequel news to boot, this unique piece really excites me.

This trio of goodness, the first of which will be giant sea scorpion-based Amphibious (!), is to be Indonesia-made in conjunction with distributor Queen Imperial Films. The second 3D feature output from this shingle will be Necronauts, a Terry Bisson-written journey into the realm of death which will be helmed by Lawnmower Man's Brett Leonard. Richard Stanley (Hardware, Dust Devil and an infamously short stint on Dr. Moreau) will helm the final instalment of this terrific tryptich, Cold Blooded, an island survival story featuring komodo dragons (!) Happily, all films will be shot in English sourcing local talent and will even more happily be low-budget. Yippee!
