So this is an unexpectedly cool way begin my morning – Anthony Michael Hall, Danny Trejo, and Mickey Rourke have all signed on to star in DEAD IN TOMBSTONE, an action-adventure flick which starts filming next week.  Written by Shane Kuhn and Brendan Cowles (THE SCORPION KING 3: BATTLE FOR REDEMPTION) and to be directed by Roel Reine (also SCORPION KING 3), the plot synopsis runs something like this:

“Trejo plays Guerrero Hernandez, leader of the Blackwater Gang of outlaws. But after freeing his half-brother, Red (Hall), from prison, Guerrero’s plan to loot the mining town of Edendale backfires spectacularly when he is double crossed by Red. After making a deal with the Devil (Rourke), Guerrero comes back from the dead a year later to seek his revenge. The town, which has presciently been renamed Tombstone will soon have its dusty streets running knee-deep in a river of blood.”
