The BEAST IN SPACE review has been updated with information on the DVD releases. This update will not be reflected in the archived version of this review posted on CRYPT SPACE. However I will attempt to update the old Mise-en-scene Crypt blog entry (A call for a new Karnstein Trilogy!

Hollywood. Remake capital of the world. Never shall a original script or screen play be left unflogged. Yet, with an ample supply of movies and scripts to reuse, they seem rather myopic in which they choose. They are Godzilla, fierce and unstoppable with goals we mere humans fail to comprehend. Especially with television series. How easy it is to take a show slap it's title on a re-envisioned adaptation, remold it for the big screen, flog it with hype and. . .
But who decides which...Hollywood Remakes: If you can't beat them, join them.

There is no stopping the assembly line productions of Hollywood remakes. So, instead of griping about it, I've decided to present five proposals for re-envisioning movies and/or television series that I feel would have a great chance in the current Hollywood system. Be warn I may have been slightly biased towards science-fiction. 5. CLASH OF THE TITANS (the series) This would make a great HBO series. They've done ROME examined THE TUDORS so why not turn to a...Yet more sci-fi news!

Is BLAKE'S 7 getting the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA treatment and getting a new series? According to the Hollywood Reporter, "Sky One is planning to remake cult '80s space (opera) series Blake's Seven."
For those who've never heard of it that's a classic British series, created by Terry Nation, from circa the...CLASH OF THE TITANS!

Since I couldn't turn up any information about the CLASH OF THE TITANS remake I decided to re-post a little something from the pages of the old Mise-en-scene Crypt blog. Obviously I'd probably have a slightly different line-up for the cast if put this together today, which probably wouldn't include Zach Braff since I picked him solely based on youth and looks at the time. Anyway enjoy...STAR ODYSSEY

Country: Italy Year Released: 1978 Starring: Yanti Sommer, Gianni Garko, Malisa Longo, Cristea Avram, Ennio Balbo, Roberto Dell'acqua, Aldo Amoroso Pioso, Pino Ferrara & Filippo Perrone. Director: Alfonso Brescia. I am fascinated by Italian movies from the seventies and eighties, especially those strange and wonderful 'exploitation' titles that were produced, often on shoestring budgets, solely to cash in on Hollywood box office hits. Movies like Starcrash, 2019 - After the...DVD or DVDr: Can you tell the difference?

How well can you detect the subtle differences in video quality? Does it even matter to you? Well here's a fun little test I put together. .

Somewhere in the world brand new DVDs of Beast in Space are playing to shocked and awed audiences. Alas as my local Borders only stocked a copy of Caligula: The Imperial Edition earlier this month (and only a single copy at that) I somehow doubt I'll be seeing it any time soon. In the meantime there's quite a few interesting items to look forward to while waiting to see if any of the local brick and mortar stores actually decide to stock it. For instance. .

Last year when I reviewed the Sci-Fi original movie Sands of Oblivion I issued a plea to the Sci-Fi channel asking they "step away from these cheap horror productions for a while and get back to your SF roots. Give your producers and directors a chance to explore different frontiers of storytelling. Even a bit of tongue-in-cheek sword-and-sorcery...Lloyd A. Simandl

Who is Lloyd A. Simandl? Lloyd A. Simandl is a director (Escape Velocity, Starfire Mutiny) and producer (Project: Shadowchaser, Xtro II: The Second Encounter) of under appreciated mid- to low budget genre fare. According to IMDB he has some 38-42 credits in his collective filmography. So how is it I didn't know who he was before I started to write the review for
OneLine Bio

When not trying to capture the ever elusive snark I like to read. I also write. Which, sadly, does seem more like a hobby than anything else most days. Playing
around with GIMP is also fun, mostly because I don't draw very well and find this a fun creative outlet within the visual medium.
