Tyrannosaurus Rex...

...The new Rob Zombie film. Not much is known about the film, but he did release a teaser poster of sorts for it, which is looking pretty badass.

Oddly no...it's not about a dinosaur. It's based on a comic Rob Zombie co-wrote called The Nail.

Ironically enough I just read this series in the last week. It was good but a movie?? Eh I dunno if I wanna see a movie about a pro wrestler who's family is in danger by evil bikers who have to kill a bunch of people cuz of some curse.

And incidentally Tyrannosaurus Rex is the name of the wrestler (real name Rex Hauser). In the comic he's called The Nail cuz he wrestles with a 2x4 with a nail stuck in it.

Another excuse to put his wife into some poorly made film that mirrors the movies he so idolizes. If it looks like he learned how to make movies since "Devil's Rejects" then I might give it a try. I only found his first film mildly amusing simply because I saw it as him paying tribute to everything he grew up enjoying, the only reasons I find movies of that nature acceptable, but once he tried taking himself seriously it just made me laugh. The ending sequence to "Devil's Rejects" was laughable.

See, I thought House of 1,000 Corpses was mediocre at at best. But hey, it was the man's first movie, so I gave him a break, he still didn't really know what he was doing. The Devil's Rejects showed that he knew what he was doing and he had some sort of talent hidden in their somewhere. I thought it showed some real promise...Then he made Halloween, and he went back down to the bottom.

Sounds more interesting than most of the films coming out these days.

If he made Werewolf Women of the SS into a full-length film it would have been even more of a blatant rip-off of old B-movies. That preview was already based off an old B-movie called Ilsa, She-Wolf of the SS.

As a fan of Ilsa, I can say that Werewolf Women of the SS is nothing like it. An homage, maybe, but certainly not a rip-off.

Hmm... I guess this is as close to Machete as we're going to get? No problem here... so far.

^^ I'd absolutely love to see Machete...i thought that'd be awesome.

That's an awfully long title...

I certainly hope he doesn't put his usual cast in there. It's kinda boring to see that same people over and over.

Looking at the poster, I'm guessing (from L-R) - Ken Foree, Bill Mosely, and Sheri Moon.
