Stephen King has always been a hot commodity in Hollywood. We've been seeing his books and stories adapted into films and TV shows since the 70s. But, with It exploding at the box office, he's probably more popular now than ever.
Deadline reports that a new King project is being adapted into a feature film. It's based on a supernatural short story called Suffer the Little Children and it's being adapted by writer and director Sean Carter. This story was published in King’s Nightmares & Dreamscapes and this is what it's about:
Suffer the Little Children is a supernatural thriller that centers on a recently divorced first-grade schoolteacher who notices some “unsettling” traits in the children in her class: flashes of a bizarre texture lurking underneath their skin and a chilling, conspiratorial secrecy to the way they play together. And now, people in her new town are dying mysteriously. Is this all just paranoia,...

Ashley Judd, wife of racer Darlo Franchitti, was at the Las Vegas racetrack Sunday when racecar driver Dan Wheldon was killed in a crash. Judd tweeted, "As we continue to absorb Dan's accident -- we forget, remember, re-experience shock, denial, anger, pain -- I'm reminded of a favorite poem: Death be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for, thou art not so, For, those, whom thou think'st, thou dost overthrow, Due not,...

This is the former; click here for the newbie-safe version. A review of episode 8, "Suffer the Little Children," coming up just as...

From Canadian horror filmmaker, Ryan M. Andrews (Black Eve, The Devil Walks Among You, Suffer The Little Children) comes the psychological zombie horror film of
Sick
With the completion of his latest horror film, Black Eve (an 80’s style slasher film) starring up and coming scream queen Veronika London, Ryan M. Andrews is switching it up to take on another style of horror-
the zombie sub-genre.
Having already tackled multiple sub-genres of horror,, surprisingly, Andrews was not expecting to do a zombie horror film any time soon. He explains, “I love zombie films, but I wanted to refrain from doing one, because it tends to be almost too common for low budget horror. Many times it is done wrong. The best zombie films always offer something new. Just look at “28 Days Later” or “Shaun Of The Dead” for example. They were huge, because they were different. At the time when...

Canadian independent filmmaker Morgan Muscat (Severance, The Devil Walks Among You) has announced that he will write and produce a new short film for his Moonlit Road Entertainment banner, with principal photography slated to begin next summer in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. The film, entitled Suffer The Little Children, is an adaptation of a Stephen King short story from the author's Nightmares and Dreamscapes collection. Ryan M. Andrews is set to direct this adaptation.
The film tells the story of an elderly elementary school teacher who begins to suspect that aliens are slowly taking over the bodies of her students. Is her attempt to save them an amazing act of courage, or a fatal trick of the mind? Muscat obtained the rights from King earlier this year and has since written two drafts of the script, which he calls "a tense, nerve-shattering story that will stick true to King's work". The...

Morgan Muscat is the producer behind Severance (2010) starring Ash Catherwood. Originally, Morgan Muscat started out working as a production assistant (a job that he still does here and there) climbing his way up the ladder. He also bought the rights to the Stephen King short story "Suffer The Little Children" which he plans to produce into a short future starring Astrida Auza. We took a min. out to ask Morgan a few questions, here is what he had to say.
So who is Morgan Muscat and what is he all about?
I’m an independent filmmaker based in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada and I write and produce short films and mini documentaries under my small production company, Moonlit Road Entertainment, which I formed in 2005. In 2008, I graduated with honors from the Media Arts program at Sheridan College and have since been working steadily in the industry, working on personal independent projects as well as mainstream productions.

The Walking Dead will be the best new show of the fall. I can now say that it's a fact, after having seen the trailer (twice!) for the new AMC series. With creator Robert Kirkman, director Frank Darabont, executive producer Gale Ann Hurd and AMC exec Joel Stillerman on hand, fans got their first look at actual Dead footage and it looks incredible.
The trailer took snippets of scenes from the opening of Kirkman's graphic novel, where Kentucky cop Rick Grimes goes down in a shootout and awakens in a hospital, to find himself completely alone. In between shots, we sees flashes of the Dead, as Rick comes to terms with his new reality. We see Grimes on horseback in downtown Atlanta, as zombies surround him and well, demonstrate their taste for horsemeat (this scene in particular was not shown. Gale Ann Hurd explained that Sdcc organizers asked for a...
