What's Next Up For The Mouse Factory? You Guessed It ... A Bigfoot Movie!

Written By: Ken Hulsey

It seems that the lure of the Bigfoot movie craze is just too much for any movie maker or movie studio to resist ..... even Disney. Move over Mickey, take a seat Jack Sparrow, there's a new property about to be exploited and thy name is Sasquatch ..... well The Yeti to be precise. Yes, since "Pirates of the Caribbean" has become such a huge movie franchise Disney has taken a good look around their theme park for another movie sensation and zeroed in on The Matterhorn.

And what monster pops out at you on The Matterhorn ride? The Yeti. So what monster is going to be the antagonist in the movie based on the ride?

Bingo!

So far the film is in early development but what is known about the script sounds alot like "Escape to Witch Mountain" meets "The Abominable Snowman of the Himalayas". A group of five kids are mysteriously drawn to the top of the mountain by a group of Yetis. What the monsters want with the kids at this point is anybodies guess ..... but I'm sure there is a gift shop up there.

Justin Springer (Tron: Legacy) will be producing the film (tentatively entitled "The Hill") from a script by Jason Dean Hall (Spread).

Three New Images From FRIGHT NIGHT

Written By: Ken Hulsey

Disney has just released three brand new pics from their remake of "Fright Night" which is due out this summer. Unfortunately none of these feature every ones favorite Doctor, David Tennant as Vincent. I know that will make a few of you, and you know who you are, rather miffed.

Regardless, they do feature Colin Farrell and Anton Yelchin which will make others very happy indeed.

Here's the synopsis from the Mouse Factory:

Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone, Charlie has to find a way to get rid of the monster himself in this Craig Gillespie-helmed revamp of the comedy-horror classic.

Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) is a high school senior who’s on top of the world—that is until Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door and Charlie discovers that he is a vampire preying on the neighborhood.

And here are the photos with descriptions and legal stuff:
