Oh frabjous day. Calloo! Callay!

I announced this in another folder. I deliberately avoided THIS one. So I'll add that the same issue of Daily Variety features an article announcing a remake of George Romero's THE CRAZIES. Director is Brad Anderson, writer is Scott Kosar, who wrote the remakes of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE and THE AMITYVILLE HORROR. These two guys made last year's THE MACHINIST, which was badly written and painful to watch--Christian Bale starved himself to concentration-camp-victim thinness for that bad movie.
