TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (S2) – TBA
With TERMINATOR SALVATION hitting theaters soon, THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES is wasting no time getting out in front of people to sell Season 2 of the series. They didn’t have time to settle on a release date, but they DID have a chance to put together some decent cover art. I always love seeing Sarah Connor sport that badass shotgun of hers!
The Goods:
NECESSARY EVIL – July 28th
With names like Lance Henriksen and Danny Trejo on board, you’d figure they would have at least put some effort in making this cover interesting or compelling. Instead it’s boring, forgettable, and (worse of all) it barely pimps out its two biggest stars! I get that Henriksen and Trejo have done their fare share of STD crapfests, but come on! This bitch looks lame, even by their standards!
The Goods:
SCREAM (1981) – June 30th
Forget everything you know about Wes Craven’s SCREAM, and get ready for the original SCREAM, comin’ at ya from 1981! A rafting trip with a layover at a ghost town, this vacation turns deadly when these college kids get taken out one by one! Sounds like a mix between THE BURNING and some other shitty movie, and it’s claim to fame is that it’s the original SCREAM. And now, after almost 13 years later, they’ll be able to capitalize on it. Sign me up! For curiosity’s sake, at least…
The Goods:
DEVIL GIRL –July 14th – Because it features fast cars, loose women, and the devil! My kind of party!
NIGHT OF THE :LIVING DEAD (plus Free T-Shirt) – July 14th – Because you get the movie and a free T-shirt! A T-shirt, people!
MONSTER X STRIKES BACK – June 30th – Because Japanese monster movies are going to make a serious comeback–starting with this.
