Eva Green to join Dark Shadows cast

Eva Green ("CASINO ROYALE", "KINGDOM OF HEAVEN") is in talks to join the cast of Tim Burton's "DARK SHADOWS" for Warner Bros. Pictures. A feature adaption of the classic 1960s soap opera, the film stars Johnny Depp as vampire Barnabas Collins.

This will be the fifth version of the Dark Shadows story to be told (sixth if you count the Gold Key comic book from the sixties). There was the original soap opera (which Barnabas didn’t become a part of until the second season, though he has since become its most enduring character), two feature films in the seventies, the revival series of the early nineties, and a failed pilot for The CW from 2004. Dark Shadows was also groundbreaking in being one of the first franchises to show the vampire in a sympathetic light, hating his existence and longing for his humanity. It also followed Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend as showing vampirism as a medical disorder.

Priest 3D info and Trailer

One upon a time, Priest, Korean comic series created by Hyung Min-woo, was going into production as a movie by U.S. film studio Screen Gems. To be released in 2008, it was going to be produced by Sam Raimi, directed by Andrew Douglas, and would star Gerard Butler as the title character. However, both Butler and Raimi have dropped out of the project leaving the future of the film adaption of Priest unknown for some time.

Now, on the vampire killer's point of view the world looks a bit brighter, as Priest is an upcoming action horror film directed by Scott Stewart and stars Paul Bettany, Cam Gigandet, Stephen Moyer and Maggie Q. It is set to be released on May 13, 2011 in 3D.

BTW; Both Cam Gigandet and Stephen Moyer have starred as vampires: Gigandet in Twilight as James, and Moyer in the HBO television series True Blood as vampire Bill Compton as well as Jack in Channel 4's Ultraviolet.

So, here's the trailer:

Review: Underworld Evolution (2006)

Beginning where Underworld (1) finished, Selene and Michael are on the run from the vampires. Being the cause of Viktor's death, Selene can only hope to plea to the last remaining elder, Marcus. However, Marcus has already awakened and has become a more powerful creature than before. Now his only remaining goal is to awaken his Lycan brother, William from his eternal imprisonment. With time running out, Selene and Michael must piece together the final clues to unlock the secrets of their bloodlines and stop Marcus before it's too late.

Underworld Evolution is a film for fans of the genre - if you like it, prepare for two hours of undiluted pleasure. If you enjoyed the first film in the series, you will probably love this one.

Underworld is a dark domain where age-old enmity between Vampires and Lycans (werewolves) is played out with terrifying fury. Normal people are fairly peripheral to the plot (vampires have emergency blood transfusion type supplies to save the need to attack humans). Both sides are armed not only with traditional blood-sucking and flesh-tearing fang-capacity, but with all the gadgetry of customised guns and other scientific paraphernalia with which to track and kill each other. Here is no disneyfied world of a timid picture-book 'Dracula' hidden in a battered old coffin somewhere - these guys exult in state-of-the-art locking crypts, massive stone fortresses, and raids conducted with military precision. The film unashamedly boasts an adults-only certificate and has consummate amounts of nastiness, gore, head-ripping and scary battles as well as realistic dollops of sex.



A number of great performances from polished actors complimented some truly spectacular action scenes and plot developments and twists.


The pacing was very good, the dialogue was at times great, overall very fitting (and never poor), all questions a viewer could have possibly coming into the film are addressed and sufficiently answered, and some of the subtleties of the film, such as the appropriate use of brief flashbacks, kept the film from ever becoming confusing or difficult to follow, which I felt happened on occasion in the first film the first time I saw it.

Kate Beckinsale delivers a performance that shows she is a very versatile actress who just so happens to be strikingly beautiful, and Scott Speedman was more than just a little eye-candy for the ladies, delivering a performance that made me believe he was the perfect Michael Corvin far more than the first film. And the supporting cast around the two main stars were all equally up to the task, with many turning in performances that are likely to be career defining.
