“Piranha 3DD” Status Update & US Theatrical Release Confirmation

The Daily Dead has posted a new statement from “Piranha 3DD” co-writer Patrick Melton about the status of the film and when we can expect to see it in the US.

Patrick Melton: “To clarify, the Thanksgiving release was always overly optimistic. Marcus and I started writing the script around Thanksgiving a year prior. Making the film within that time period is plausible (we’ve done it on Saw, obviously), but it became clear very early on that our goals were not realistic because we needed sun, water slides, and bikini-clad coeds… three things not very prevalent in the United States during the months of January and February. We initially scouted Louisiana and realized that we wouldn’t be able to shoot until late March because of the cold weather. Now, with the additional FX worked needed to create/enhance the piranhas, the Thanksgiving release was out the window.

Nevertheless, we plowed on and finished shooting in late May. Over the summer, Gulager edited and picked up a few shots around Los Angeles. This is typical of every movie made. Scenes, jokes, and kills were simply enhanced to make the movie more of an event. About a month ago, it was tested and scored very well. So well the studio gave us more money to enhance the FX. Soon, it’ll be done and ready for a theatrical release. Because of the “Spring Break vibe” in the film, spring was the obvious time to open it. And because Dimension Films financed the movie and owns the movie, they call the shots on when it’s released worldwide.

So, that’s the long and short of it. All good. In theaters this spring. See you then.”

The Producers talk about 19 of the original cast coming back to make this movie and all of them seem like they’re genuinely pleased to be back.

Katrina Bowden Kisses Chris Klein — And Tells All

Joining one of the most iconic casts is no easy task, but from the moment 30 Rock actress Katrina Bowden met the American Pie gang, she felt right at home. She rounded out the cast for American Reunion, the latest edition in the series, and will play the drunk, party-obsessed girlfriend of Chris Klein‘s Oz.

While most of the filming was fun and games, she wasn’t so thrilled about the kissing scenes! So what was it like locking lips with Mr. Klein?

“It was awkward and weird, but he’s a nice guy and so sweet… We have a couple kissing scenes, so we just tried to do it well the first time, so it’d be done with. It’s just so awkward forcing a kiss in front of all these people,” she told Celebuzz at the Motorola Mobility launch party.

In the film, the Pie cast reunites in East Great Falls, Michigan for their high school reunion — and of course, they’re back to their old antics. Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott, Alyson Hannigan, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Chris Klein, Eugene Levy, Tara Reid, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Jennifer Coolidge and Mena Suvari all return for the film, set to debut April 6, 2012.

Katrina believes fans of the original films will love the reunion. “It’s such an iconic group of people and the fact that the entire cast was back was really awesome. It’s going to be really funny. There are lots of throwbacks to the original film,” she says.

With a cast full of pranksters, Katrina admits she was thrown off a few times when she became the center of pranks — even during key scenes.

“At one point in the film, I’m talking to Chris and all of a sudden the boom mic comes down and hits me in the side of the head. At first I thought I was going crazy, really getting into my drunk character, and here Jason Biggs is poking us in the middle of the scene,” she recalled, laughing.

“American Reunion” Official Red Band Teaser





Eli Craig Talks Blu-ray/DVD Extras for ‘Tucker & Dale vs. Evil’

Dread Central’s Andrew Kasch reported in from the press junket for Tucker & Dale vs. Evil with some news regarding what we can expect on the upcoming DVD/Blu-ray release for the film along with a bit of a tease from writer/director Eli Craig as to what his next project might be.

First off, the home video release of Tucker & Dale vs. Evil from Magnolia (coming on November 29th) will include a lot of outtakes and a brand new 15-minute short film called “Tucker & Dale Are Evil”, which is essentially the events of the film told entirely from the point of view of the teenagers.

The hilarious horror-comedy feature centers on two redneck buddies, played by “Firefly”’s Alan Tudyk and “Reaper”’s Tyler Rabine, who, thanks to a series of misunderstandings and unfortunate events, are mistaken for psychopathic hillbillies by a group of judgmental college brats, who themselves turn homicidal, after the duo’s rescue of one of their friends, “30 Rock”’s Katrina Bowden, gets misconstrued as a backwoods abduction.
