It’s a mockumentary feature produced by Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted) that will be shot in the Paranormal Activity/The Last Exorcism found-footage style, purporting to depict lost recordings from Apollo 18’s mysterious mission to our lunar friend where, suffice to say, something very,…

The Wrap is reporting Warner Bros. and CBS Films are in talks with Showtime to mount one hell of an interesting deal with regards to the upcoming adaptation of Stephen King‘s massive, post-apocalyptic tome “The Stand“.

Update: In quite possibly the greatest bit of irony, the video has been taking down due to copyright claims by Funny or Die. They held a contest to insert the footage into people’s own video projects, and now that contest is over. I guess that footage could only be free for that amount of time. Damn…

The move only makes sense considering Weinstein/Dimension already had The Road hitting…

We first learned M. Night Shyamalan had commenced work on a new micro-budgeted film titled Sundowning back in late February, but nothing else was known of the project until today.
