Webisodes Pop Online For 30 DAYS OF NIGHT!!!
Hey folks, Harry here with what is very close to being the project entering production that I'm currently most excited about. That's the feature film adaptation of 30 DAYS OF NIGHT. It's based on a graphic novel by Steve Niles. That it is being directed by David Slade, whose HARD CANDY kicked a lot of ass - without really being about showing much at all... is terrifically exciting. In HARD CANDY - Slade created tension and suspense effortlessly and paid the film off beautifully. Here - with Niles' story - he has material that is just aching for a director that knows how to ramp up the tension and anxiety - because - this is going to be very very scary - if they stay true to the material. Which they seem to be saying they're attempting. It has a very understated cast topped by Josh Hartnett and Melissa George - and what seems like a lot of natural New Zealand talent. Over at the official site - they've got some webisodes started - not that they're particularly thrilling at this state... there is one location scout - where as they pan the camera around... if you're familiar with the story - you can begin to imagine it all. Can't wait. Here ya go...
This takes you to the first webisode - the others are on the left hand side of the screen!!!
Thanks goes to Leontyne, who dropped us the links!

apparently nobody cares

no rock soundtrack, no bullet tiem, no heavy CGI, no MTV stykle camera movement. Just a slow burn to a falme. Oh, and dont show the shark ubtil the final 3rd if ya know what I mean.

Slade - (paraphrasing) "Those children better not make any fucking noise." Oh, and what happened to the automatic login and all the old talkbacks we were promised while you were "updating"? Was this all just a little bullshit to tear down the Hi I'm Megatron talkback... and every other talkback that blasted Transformers for the piece of shit its going to be?

Been waiting for this for what seems like forever, I'm really curious to see how they handle the vampires in this as the way they are portrayed in the graphic novel is quite visceral and i'm not sure if the brutality of the attacks can be handled without using some kind of optical/cgi effect. A similar bloodless effect was used in Van Helsing to handle the vampire attacks using cgi, but as portrayed in the comic a much more vicious, bloody effect is needed. Watched Hard Candy last night as well to get a feeling for the director and I must say was impressed by the film, it was very well shot and high in production values for a low budget film and the atmosphere was very intense. Hope to see some effects test webisodes to see how they are going to visualise the film :)

does the fact that theres loads of these things on the site not tell you that you're mega late with this bit of news? superherohype has been running these for months.

Thought I was going to complain? Fuck no. Josh Hartnett is a solid choice dammit. Can't wait for this to come out.

you are a sorry excuse for a human being. Transformers already OWNS this site and you.

I bet you'd like to own you Mr Aintitshot. Put a collar on you and walk you around the room like a sex puppy? Michael Bay riding on your back maybe? ...I don't really care about Transformers. I just fucking HATE the whole 'owns' garbage that was funny with pwned for about 3 days and now years later is very annoying. Its the internet's wasssup. BTW this looks pretty cool so far. Dude's head is on straight.
-
for some real funny and fucked up webisodes. And yes, it is my website.
-
that's one jittery looking director who could do with smiling a bit I think! and how did he get a Vampire gig from Hard Candy?

Can't wait for this film,but if you've ever been to Alaska theres no other place in the world that can match it....but I guess if you've never travel there or lived in the last frontier you wouldn't notice...Maybe they try shooting some second unit. Has anyone seen the horror thriller film titled COPE...IT WAS SHOOT IN KODIAK ALASKA. You can check it out at www.eztakes.com. Great thriller very independent
