Marvel + Disney = Twisted Princesses? (We Can Dream)

500x_twistedprincess_thelittlemermaid-456-small

With all the talk of Disney buying Marvel, you know this is what you’re secretly hoping for.  Dark, twisted versions of the Disney Princesses!

As imagined by illustrator Jeffrey Thomas, these pictures are pretty awesome.  These were drawn before the infamous buy-out, but we all can dream, right?

Check out the pics after the jump:

First Image of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger!

newfredddys

When I heard that Academy Award Winner Jackie Earle Haley (Little Children, Watchmen) was putting on the striped sweater, hat and claws to play the iconic Freddy Krueger, I was pretty excited.  I think he’s the only actor that can pull off this role made iconic by Robert Englund.

Anyway, here’s the first glimpse of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy from the Platinum Dunes remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street.  If you were disappointed by the campiness of the Friday the 13th remake (I actually dug it), prepare for a serious, non glossy and scary Nightmare on Elm Street.  I’m hearing some great things so far through the rumor-mille.  We’ll have to wait and see.

More pics of the new Freddy will be coming later today . . .

Joe TV shows will be available in mid-July.  These are the sets I’ve been waiting for! Although a bit pricey, this is a large chunk of my childhood I’ll finally be able to own.

**UPDATE: Blu-Ray most likely in the works! (AintItCool)

For Horror fans, we can all breath a sigh of relief.  The awesome 80′s zombie flick Night of the Creeps is FINALLY set to arrive on DVD in October! After suffering through our VHS copies, crappy bootlegs and signing online petitions we can have a decent copy of Night of the Creeps in our collections.

From Chud:

Until this October. And it’s going to be a special edition! Red Shirt Pictures’ Michael Felsher was on Dead Pit radio today and said that he had just spoken to Sony and the disc was official. He said: ‘It’s going to be the director’s cut with the original ending. We’re going to go balls to the wall with the special features on it.’

When I heard about this, I busted out my white man dance and am now scouring Amazon for Pre-Sale info.  I’ll keep you posted.

Outlander has been a movie I’ve been looking forward to for some time.  It’s got Spaceships, Monsters and Vikings.  What more could you ask for? Looks like the DVD/Blu-Ray is finally on it’s way after a very limited theatrical run.  Look for it in stores or online May 19, 2009.  I know I’ll be picking it up that day!
