Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. It was a busy day for me personally... two interviews, a screening and an attempt to get into another screening (I just didn't make it... the screening was packed and there were no seats). But on the news side, it's kind of a lazy day...

There's two stories that caught my eye and both of them are awesome sounding. This one... I grew up with KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE. I love the Chiodo Bros work. I was first drawn to this story announcing a psychological thriller called BORN by the impressive cast. They have Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany so far, but then I did a double take when I saw the Chiodo Bros' mentioned as being brought in to "integrate" stop motion animated sequences.

The movie's about a couple that settle down in a quiet English town to raise a family. The husband is a claymation artist and begins to find his creations taking on a life of their own, acting out a living nightmare.

How cool does that sound?
