Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I'm of the opinion that DJ Caruso is a great shooter. He knows how to put a flick together and pull great performances out of his cast. Sometimes the scripts he directs aren't... completely there, but when the material is right he gives us movies like SALTON SEA and the incredibly fun, but underseen BLACK CAT RUN (scripted by Frank Darabont).
Looks like his next project post-EAGLE EYE will be JACK THE GIANT KILLER, according to this story on Variety, which I would assume means Y: THE LAST MAN isn't quite ready yet.
Darren Lemke wrote the script and it seems to be a adult look at the fairy tale, which is already fucking creepy by itself. What's interesting is that it doesn't look like they're trying to modernize it. It still appears to be set in a land of princesses and brave young farmers ready to rescue said princesses from big bad giants.
Could be a fun flick. Be interesting to see how the cast fills out. Who wants him to bring Michael Chiklis over from EAGLE EYE and their collaboration on THE SHIELD to play a giant (or at least a booming voice)? Maybe I'm alone there...
