Ray Bradbury's A SOUND OF THUNDER trailer rumbles upon the net!

Hey folks, Harry here with the latest on A SOUND OF THUNDER, the film based upon Ray Bradbury's incredibly influential short story that was first translated into visual form by Al Williamson in WEIRD SCIENCE FANTASY #25 from the vaunted pages of E.C. way back in September of 1954. Now Peter Hyams has been working for seemingly ever, to bring forth a feature length film adapted from the work. With Crash's creature designs and a more traumatic effect and action given to poor future Chicago... I think we'll see a bunch of coolness... I really dig the Baboon Lizard thingee. Very cool! Here ya go...

Click to clamor for A SOUND OF THUNDER!

Here's what Williamson made it look like back when comics still cost only 10 cents... If you're out at San Diego's phantastic Comic-Con this week you might be able to find one of these nice old books, buuuut the price will be closer to $500.00 now. Luckly ol' Father Geek picked this one up in the early 1970's for around 15 bucks.







Ain't it cool?
