Todd Farmer on How ‘Halloween 3D’ Fell Apart, or, How the Weinsteins Waste Everyone’s Time
Oh boy what a treat! I hope you have some free time, and if you don’t, make some immediately. Toff Farmer, the man who had been attached to pen Halloween 3D for Dimension Films, has posted a lengthy blog detailing how Patrick Lussier and himself got attached to the project — and how it all fell apart. It’s just the meat an potatoes, but click here and start reading because it’s pretty f*ckin’ entertaining (they wanted to cast Tom Atkins? Sweet!). I really dug My Bloody Valentine 3D, so it’s a bummer they won’t be bringing Michael Myers to the big screen, but hey, we got Drive Angry going in production! After you’re done reading, start talking about it below.
One of the genre films set to premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in June is the sci-fi/drama She Loved Blossoms More, and a bonkers first-look photo has arrived this week (above).
Additionally, Variety reports this afternoon that Yellow Veil Pictures has secured world sales on She Loved Blossoms More, billed as a “family drama in science fiction disguise.”
In the film, “three brothers build an unusual time-machine in order to bring their long-dead mother back to life. When their delusional father comes into the picture, the experiments go awry, and they descend into a psychedelic hellscape where the past and present fuse in a comedic yet deeply disturbing exploration of grief.”
Yannis Veslemes directed the film and co-wrote with Dimitris Emmanouilidis.
Veslemes said in a statement shared by Variety, “[She Loved Blossoms More is] a ballad for the defeated, a comedy for the accursed, a moral tale for us all and our beloved families.”
“She Loved Blossoms More is the first film we’ve onboarded at script stage, and it’s been quite amazing to see it come alive,” said Hugues Barbier of Yellow Veil Pictures. “We couldn’t be more proud of Yannis’ vision and the amazing team he has around him. Blossoms is an emotional thrill ride and a calling card for one of the most exciting new filmmakers.”
