The Producers Of TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN And G.I. JOE Sends Paramount To HELLIFIED!!

Published at:  Jun 26, 2009 8:11:50 AM CDT


Merrick here...




Lorenzo di Bonaventura will produce HELLIFIED for Paramount; Dan Bradley (the forthcoming RED DAWN remake) will direct.

"Hellified" is known to be a supernatural action movie involving a journey to hell.


...says THIS write-up in The Hollywood Reporter.

HELLIFIED comes to us from writer Andy Burg. If anyone out there knows more about this project, drop me a line and I'll update this article.

I wonder if it'll be anything like BILL & TED 2?

    descent. We see glimpses of hell in Spawn and Constantine, but do we really want to see those glimpses for 2 hours? But as Nice Marmot said at least it's not a remake. I much prefer the movies where hell is trying to conquer this plane. The Omen comes to mind. There's also the underrated Kirk Douglas film Holocaust 2000

    by grammaton cleric binks

    He was also in Shawshank, and in Star Trek DS9 as the head of Section 13 or was it 31, whatever the number was. I don't want to use IMDB as a crutch. It will come to me. I want to say William something.

    by grammaton cleric binks

    He goes from sidekick goofball in Shawshank to cold as ice in Die Hard 2 and DS9. Along with Viggo, Lionel Luthor, and Jamie Sheridan, he'd make a great Satan.

    If you have never read Clive Barker's short story, find it.
    I always thought that the people that found the tower at the end of the movie would have been a great movie.

    It's going to suck. Oh, I'm sorry, is it wrong to pass judgment based solely on the fact that this will be brought to us by the people who have provided Transformers 2 AND that G.I. Joe turd, along with a sew of the ever popular remakes? Fuck...and this site lends them creedence by reporting on this shit. Ugh...

    100% with you on that one. What Dreams May Come and Bill and Ted's are the best two I can think of. I have been waiting for years for a true adaption of the Divine Comedy. Probably never going to happen.

    by grammaton cleric binks

    the whole movie. I've only seen parts of What Dreams May Come. I think I saw the first hour, so we don't even get to hell at that point. I'm not saying two hours of hell can't work, I'm just saying as of yet it hasn't been done, and my feeble imagination can't come up with a way to make it work. Maybe someone else can. Hellraiser II was another good one, but again, two hours of that? I don't think so.

    by olguinland

    yeah, i dont what hellified is nor do i care but if the people behind the shitting of my childhood heroes are behind it, it wont be good. First of all, Transformers 2 sucked balls. Devastator sized balls to be exact. The twins?! What about sideswipe, Ironhide even Arcee, and they give these lousy characters major screentime? I can go on and on how bad and how shitty this movie was but that would be like the extra hour they tacked on this "film". totally not needed. 2nd,WTF! GI Joe...judging from the poster, its Kabal from MK3, one of the Mercs from Army of two, Charlies Bad Angel i guess and one of the ninjas from that Chuck Norris flick, Sidekicks. And Marlon Wayons? Couldnt they get Damon or Keenen, even Shawn? Hell, a Baldwin Brother would do it, theres like ten of those too. 3rd, Red Dawn Remake!?! Jesus, how else can they destroy the 80's? little long for talkback, but had a lot to say.
