Rob Cohen Talks ‘Mummy 3’ DVD Plans
This morning SpookyDan interviewed The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor director Rob Cohen who revealed that the third MUMMY film will hit both DVD and Blu-ray this Christmas in a variety of different versions. “Just last week I saw the different versions,” Cohen tells a group of reporters. “Yes, we are working on a Blu-ray edition, a MUMMY Trilogy Pack with all three films (no surprise), an Ultimate Edition with over 20-minutes of deleted scenes and of course the Uncut Edition with more violence than what is being released into theaters.” Click the title for more on the film, which arrives in theaters August 1.

‘Jimmy and Stiggs’ – Argentine Spinoff Movie ‘Burger Night’ Announces All-Female Cast
Released by Eli Roth’s label The Horror Section last year, Joe Begos (VFW, Christmas Bloody Christmas) horror movie Jimmy and Stiggs is getting an official spinoff movie.
Sebastián De Caro has acquired the Argentine spin-off rights to Jimmy and Stiggs from The Horror Section, and his spinoff movie will follow new characters in Argentina.
The title? Burger Night: Luli, Magda & Lore. Eli Roth and Joe Begos will Executive Produce the film, which centers on the same alien threat from Jimmy and Stiggs.
Variety reports this afternoon that the film will feature an all-female cast.
Agostina Palazzolo (“Ciclón), Agustina “Papry” Suásquita (Netflix’s “Envious”) and Maia Tarcic (“Letters to My Ex”) will star in Burger Night: Luli, Magda & Lore.
“I am thrilled with the cast — these are women of extraordinary talent, true cinema lovers, brave and wild. They are going to surprise everyone. Each one understands her character perfectly and they all fell in love with the original material,” Sebastián De Caro said.
In Jimmy and Stiggs…
A perfect storm of lousy news sees out-of-work filmmaker Jimmy spiral into a bender, during which he claims to have been abducted by aliens. Fearing their return, he contacts his old friend Stiggs to help him gear up for war. Begos stars alongside Matt Mercer (Contracted), practical alien puppets, and a whole lot of gore captured on 16mm film.
Daniel Kurland wrote in his review, “The world needs more playful, gonzo small-scale-yet-apocalyptic horror films like Jimmy and Stiggs. It’s a movie that has constant tricks on display and perpetually sprays blood in the audience’s face, but there’s an earnest center to it all.”
