Okay, okay. In response to this post , my in-box is full of angry brickbats from readers who liked the made-for-tv Shining movie. Apparently, King hated the Kubrick version -- which I think was one of the few Kubrick movies that wasn't overrated! -- and he, and quite a few King fans, think the miniseries was a more faithful adaptation of the book. Noted. Perhaps my curmudgeonly attitude is attributable...
What an awful, awful idea. I had to look up something about The Shining and found out they made a remake with Steven Weber (the goofy ladies' man from Wings) in the Jack Nicholson role and Rebecca De Mornay in the Shelley Duvall part. Melvin Van Peeples picks up the torch from Scatman Crothers. It's like one of those fake movies Bill Murray previews at the beginning of Scrooged. Like this one: The...

Darren Bousman is up in Toronto filming the MOTHER'S DAY remake with Rebecca De Mornay, Jaime King, Briana Evigan, Alexa Vega and Shawn Ashmore and has taken some time out of his busy day to file a video blog from the set. It's less a blog than just a behind-the-scenes little vid of Bousman talking to the actors and prepping the scenes (oddly narrated by Bousman's Twitter updates). It's supposedly...
Rebecca De Mornay stars as the mother in this horror film about really sick and disgusting members of a villainous family return to their childhood home to terrorize the new home owners and their guests. The producers are calling this horror movie a remake, but the story doesn’t appear to be like the original. Anyway this is a [...]
According to the Philadelphia Business Journal, even taking the politically correct de novo tack of promoting "diversity" doesn't seem to be able to buy new bank organizers a ticket to the FDIC's dance. While existing startup banks grapple with the...
