‘Suspiria’ Remake to Shoot in 2010
In a brand new article on Variety, news was reported that plans are still underway for a remake of Suspiria, which is to be produced by Italian helmer Luca Guadagnino (I Am Love). “Guadagnino also said plans are on track for his First Sun shingle to produce the long-in-gestation remake of Dario Argento’s 1977 cult hit “Suspiria.” It will be helmed by David Gordon Green with a 2010 shooting date.” No other details were given, but at least they confirm it’s still in the cards for the near future. In the original Suzy Banyon, a young American ballet dancer who arrives at a prestigious European dance academy run by the mysterious Madame Blanc and Miss Tanner. But when a series of bizarre incidents and horrific crimes turn the school into a waking nightmare of the damned, Suzy must escape the academy’s unspeakable secret of supernatural evil.
Fresh off his brief appearance as Longlegs in Scary Movie, Deadline reports that Chris Elliott will star alongside Michael Ian Black in Sasquatch creature comedy Bad Day for Bigfoot.
Sara Tomko (Resident Alien), Oliver Cooper (Project X) and James Duval (Donnie Darko) also star in the film from filmmakers Zach Green and Devin O’Rourke (Foil).
Deadline details in today’s exclusive report, “The film follows a Bigfoot hoax that goes horribly wrong in the middle of an actual Sasquatch hot spot, leading to a chaotic struggle between the hoaxers, investigators, and a supernatural force that defies explanation.”
“I have always been drawn to cryptids and monster lore, and the over-the-top sincerity of 80s and 90s protagonists,” director Zach Green said in a statement. “Bad Day for Bigfoot is a love letter to those creature-filled adventure comedies. I couldn’t be more proud of the cast and crew we’ve assembled, and for the support and enthusiasm from the people of La Grande [Oregon]. It was their gumption that proved to us that making this thing was very possible, and that what’s lurking in those woods may be very real indeed.”
The cast also includes Ashley Rae Spillers, Brian McGuire and Kyle D. King.
