Dino-Madness in ‘The Land That Time Forgot’
Flying under all of our radars, production is expected to begin next week on a remake of The Land that Time Forgot, based on the classic book by Edgar Rice Burroughs, later remade into a 1975 film, reports Moviehole.net. Actor C.Thomas Howell will be behind the camera directing from a script by Darren Dalton (Scanner Cop). The site reports that the flick stars Howell (The Hitcher, Gettysburg), Christopher Showerman (George of the Jungle 2, Commander and Chief), and Timothy Bottoms, who coincidentally was a star of the recent “Land of the Lost” TV series which aired from 1991-1992. The original takes place during World War I, where a German U-boat sinks a British ship and takes the survivors on board. After it takes a wrong turn, the submarine takes them to the unknown land of Caprona, where they find dinosaurs and neanderthals. Awesome trailer beyond the break.
“It’s action, danger and and adventure on an epic scale!”
A creature wreaks havoc upon a community in Hope, from writer-director Na Hong-jin (The Wailing), and the new poster gives a closer look at the snarling beast.
The Korean monster movie will be released in theaters in the United States by NEON on September 9.
Check out the new poster below.
Set in the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to find a mysterious creature that has wreaked havoc on the village.
In the nearby forest, a coterie of hunters, including Sung- ki, set out to track the beast and find themselves hunted instead. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading.
What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.
Hwang Jung-min (The Wailing), Zo In-sung (“Moving”), Hoyeon (“Squid Game”), Taylor Russell (Bones and All), Cameron Britton (“The Umbrella Academy”), Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina), and Michael Fassbender (Prometheus) star in Hope.
Hope had its World Premiere at the Cannes Film Festival back in May. The festival’s director, Thierry Fremaux, previously teased that Hope “constantly changes genres” to capture a story of “no part of history that’s ever been told before.”
