I recently talked a lot of yang on Dylan Dog Dead Of Night the upcoming film adaptation of the world famous Tiziano Sclavi comic. Having one of your favorite comics, TV shows, or movies being remade/adapted for a modern audience can be a very nerve-racking experience. At the same time, I also promised I will see it in theaters regardless of how bad it looks. Luckily with the announcement of a US release for April 29th, a new poster design, a new trailer, and an official website, things are looking a little better for us skeptical fans.
Here’s the new trailer.
Looks like they’re going for the Buffy The Vampire Slayer fans, and don’t take that as a complaint. I may not love Buffy, but its not like it makes me cringe. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the movie might suck but if it gets people into the comic, more power to ya! Lets hope it doesn’t blow and that the interest is so overwhelming they’re forced to release more editions in English.
Matt D has been a manager, buyer and event coordinator at Forbidden Planet since 2005 or maybe it was 2006. Who can remember? We didn't even have computers back then. A native New Yorker from the borough of Queens, raised on Sunday Funnies, Monster Movies and Rock N' Roll. What better place to end up than Forbidden Planet where he can use his position to influence the city's pop culture. A responsibility he takes seriously more now than ever due to New York's consistent change for the worse. The last thing NYC needs is another cafe or bank so thank whatever it is you believe in that Forbidden Planet is here to stay. Beyond the walls of FP, Matt is a publicly recognized expert in cult and horror cinema with a focus on VHS. He is the founder of Horror Boobs a collective that books screenings and distributes weirdo films, the producer of the documentary Adjust Your Tracking: The Untold Story of the VHS collector, the publisher of the Blood Video zine, and is regrettably responsible for resurrecting the career of schizophrenic Shot-on Video director Carl J Sukenick.
