Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a little info on what's new in Terry Gilliam's world, as well as a little bit on what that wicked soul who directed the original CUBE is up to. Some might think that directing a documentary on the making of a movie is a step down from a feature film, but those who don't believe directing a doc on the making of a Terry Gilliam film isn't just as rich and interesting as a feature would be haven't seen LOST IN LA MANCHA and THE HAMSTER FACTOR, which is the Doc on 12 MONKEYS. Unfortunately for Gilliam, and sometimes for us in the case of his MAN OF LA MANCHA, he's cursed with the most insanely troubled productions. If TIDELAND is a different story, we'll still get Gilliam's patented madness to entertain.

Anyway, all this is to say that I'm very much looking forward to what Vincenzo Natali does with his Gilliam doc before he's buried in work on the Paul WS Anderson produced NECROPOLIS. I'm not sure if "biological horror" is a sure bet, but looking at CUBE I'm damn curious as to what a Natali horror film set in a hospital will look like. Let's hope Anderson isn't a creative producer, eh? Anyway, thanks to THE HORROR CHANNEL'S DREAD section for the info! I should have some words with a certain Creepy Uncle about where the Horror Channel stands in the very near future, so keep an eye out for that one soon!

According to Dread Central Vincenzo "Cube" Natali is currently at work shooting a documentary on the new Terry Gilliam film Tideland !!!

Afterwards Vincenzo Natali will direct "Necropolis" a "fusion of biological horror and ghost story" that takes place in a hospital...
