Anchor Bay Entertainment and Dimension Films announced today the 3D Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD release of the campy comedy-horror film, Piranha 3DD. A sequel to Piranha 3D – the 2010 reboot of the fan-favorite franchise from the ‘70s – Piranha 3DD stars Danielle Panabaker (The Crazies, Friday the 13th), Katrina Bowden (TV’s “30 Rock”), David Koechner (Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Get Smart), David Hasselhoff (TV’s “Baywatch,” “Knight Rider”), Christopher Lloyd (Piranha 3D, Back to the Future), and Gary Busey (Lethal Weapon, The Buddy Holly Story). Directed by John Gulager (Feast) and written by Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton (the writing team behind four Saw and three Feast titles), Piranha 3DD heads to retail on September 4. READ MORE
“30 Rock” sex bomb Katrina Bowden is featured on the cover of this month’s Maximum magazine where she talks about her upcoming horror roles. Having already starred in Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, Bowden can also be seen in Dimension Films’ upcoming Piranha 3DD and Lionsgate’s Nurse 3D. That’s a hole lotta 3-D. READ MORE

Bloody Disgusting exclusively broke the news before Thanksgiving that Nora Arnezeder (Safe House) and Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings) have been cast as “Anna” and “Frank”, respectively, in Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes, Piranha 3D, Mirrors, High Tension) and producing/writing partner Grégory Levasseur’s remake of William Lustig’s classic 1980 slasher Maniac. Now we’ve landed the first two images featuring Wood attacking actress Genevieve Alexandra. READ MORE
Now in stores from Mulholland Books from Marcus Dunstan (writer of Feast 1-III, Saw 4-7, Piranha 3DD and director of The Collector) and Stephen Romano (“Shock Festival”) is “Black Light“, a new horror novella reviews by Ryan Daley. READ MORE

Yeah yeah yeah. I know that the “Scream Awards” celebrate other genres besides horror. But the thing takes place in October. And it’s called the “Scream Awards”. And it’s kind of weird that Super 8 is nominated for best “Scream-Play” since it has very few screams and certainly isn’t a very good screenplay to begin with. READ MORE
If you needed a second reason to check out Apollo 18 this weekend, Dimension Films has some bait…the official Facebook page for Piranha 3DD writes:
“Dying to see PIRANHA 3DD in all its horror glory? Check out he horrifically epic Apollo 18 this weekend!” READ MORE
Back in 2010 is was revealed that Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes, Piranha 3D, Mirrors, High Tension) and producing/writing partner Grégory Levasseur would be remaking William Lustig’s classic 1980 slasher Maniac, with rumors that the French filmmaker would possibly be directing. READ MORE
Even more mysterious than the actual movie is Dimension Films’ inability to decide on an official release date for their found footage sci-fi horror pic Apollo 18. READ MORE
Grab a drink and a cheeseburger because David Hasselhoff is heading back to the water in this year’s Piranha 3DD. He joins the previously announced cast which includes Ving Rhames, Christopher Lloyd, Paul Scheer, Gary Busey, Katrina Bowden, Danielle Panabaker, Matt Bush, Chris Zylka and David Koechner. READ MORE
The Piranha 3D (now on DVD and Blu-ray everywhere) sponsored “Hottest Babes in Horror” playoffs have come to an end with the stunning 30-year-old Eliza Dushku coming from behind to defeat goddess Diora Baird. Most moviegoers probably know Dushku best as spunky “bad girl” Missy Pantone in fluffy cheerleader movie Bring It On, but horror fans will always remember her for her role in 2003′s underrated backwoods slasher flick Wrong Turn, which had the olive-skinned sexpot running around in a clingy white tank top for the duration. Since then she’s remained close to the genre, by parlaying her television success as the rebellious “Faith” on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” into roles in two “horror-adjacent” Fox series, “Tru Calling” and Joss Whedon’s “Dollhouse”. More recently she has taken lead roles in strictly B-level fare like serial murderer flick The Alphabet Killer and “killer board game” movie Open Graves, and will next appear in the recently-announced horror-thriller Zoe with Freddie Prinze Jr. and James van der Beek.
