Paul Giamatti On The Long Gestured ‘Bubba Nosferatu’
It’s been more than a decade since Phantasm director Don Coscarelli’s Bubba Ho-Tep independently made the festival and theatrical rounds turning it into cult classic. In the film, Elvis (Bruce Campbell) and JFK (Ossie Davis) are both alive and in nursing homes fighting for the souls of their fellow residents in a battle with an ancient Egyptian Mummy.
Since then, Coscarelli has been battling to get the sequel into production with A-lister Paul Giamatti. Collider spoke with the star about the long gestured Bubba Nosferatu: Curse of the She-Vampires who confirms the existence of a script, while also keeping hope alive.
“When I first met Don, it was just through funny circumstances. We got together and he told me he had the idea for a sequel to that, and I read the script, which was great,” said Giamatti. “I don’t know how much I would want to give away about it, though. The part I would play would be Colonel Parker, who was Elvis’ manager, and it was always a sinister relationship between the two of them, with how he had such control over him. The movie answers that question. It’s a vampire movie, and that’s part of how he has a hold over him. It’s a fantastic script! It’s different from the other one, but it’s still all about aging and compromising yourself. The way Bubba Ho-Tep was about getting old, this one’s about being middle-aged, in a great way. I hope that maybe we can still get it done ‘cause it’s a really great script.”
Ron Perlman at one point was attached to replace Campbell.
Giamatti can be seen in Coscarelli’s John Dies at the End through Magnet On-Demand December 27, 2012 and in theaters February 3, 2013.

[Book Review] David Wong’s ‘John Dies At The End’ Sequel, ‘This Book Is Full Of Spiders’
Jason Pargin’s first novel, John Dies at the End, was originally published as an online serial. It eventually developed enough of a cult following to evolve into a full-blown book deal, with a hardcover print run and everything. The wacky misadventures of Dave and John––two 20-something slackers facing down a host of otherworldly monsters in their pathetic hometown––caught the attention of esteemed horror director Don Coscarelli (Phansasm, Bubba Ho-Tep), who adapted the novel into a Paul Giamatti-starring film that’s been bouncing around the festival circuit since January. Magnet is planning a VOD release sometime in late December.
It sounds like a dream scenario for any would-be novelist, but Pargin (writing under the pseudonym David Wong) proves he’s no fluke with the hilarious, hallucinatory sequel This Book is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don’t Touch It. Dave and John are back, this time attempting to quell a surge of giant parasitic spiders that have infected their undisclosed hometown. Their investigation goes predictably awry, resulting in a full-on zombie oubreak. This Book is Full of Spiders hit American bookstores back on October 2. Read on for the full review. READ MORE

Blu-ray Review: ‘Ironclad’
The last few years have brought plenty of vicious historical actioners to cinemas, including Centurion and Black Death. Ironclad purports a stronger historical accuracy than its competition, but it certainly doesn’t hold back on the brawn and body trauma. It’s overlong, but Ironclad provides a righteous jolt, working as a gritty work of period recreation and as a sword-swinging marathon of squirting blood and flying severed limbs.

Ironclad (limited)
It is the year 1215 and the rebel barons of England have forced their despised King John to put his royal seal to the Magna Carta, a noble, seminal document that upheld the rights of free-men. Yet within months of pledging himself to the great charter, the King reneged on his word and assembled a mercenary army on the south coast of England with the intention of bringing the barons and the country back under his tyrannical rule. Barring his way stood the mighty Rochester castle, a place that would become the symbol of the rebel’s momentous struggle for justice and freedom.
