Daft Punk is scoring the new Dario Argento movie. I'm very happy that we are getting new Daft Punk for the first time in 7 years but when was the last time Argento made a good movie?

Sounds like the perennial Hellraiser reboot movie plans are dead because now HBO is having David Gordon Green turn the franchise into a TV series. There is precedence for a serialized Hellraiser as Barker shepherded a comic book back in the day. There were two types of stories, standalones where some poor schlub runs into the Lament Configuration or the "Harrowers" which were basically good guy Cenobites who were empowered by a goddess to fight against the bad Cenobites.

Personally I thought the standalone stories were better because they let authors be weirder, like "Wordsworth" which was written by Neil Gaiman and has the box show up in the form of a crossword puzzle. While the Harrowers stuff (even when written by Barker) are too goofy.

Not having read any Hellraiser comics, I could see Harrowers maybe working in a "Cure just as bad as the disease" sort of way. Beings in opposition to the Cenobite's pure hedonism, swearing their lives to destroying them in the name of chastity and moral restraint. But like the Cenobites, they are purely dissociated from mortal reality and human needs and desires. So in their pursuit, they will destroy everything in the attempt to claim one cenobite. So a Pinhead and his fellow cenobites might relentlessly come after you, if a Harrower comes along you might be destroyed by a careless and completely apathetic being.

McBride is going to be an EP on the show. There was an announcement a couple of weeks ago about another director being attached to a movie but Hellraiser is kind of like Highlander and the Crow where someone is always making a deal to do a new one and it somehow never materializes.

The Harrowers were the name given to the team of humans who entered hell to defeat Pinhead after he had amassed all of Earth's magical knowledge, killed the other members of his order, and went to Satan's Cathedral in hell to steal the devil's armor. He finds Satan dead, steals his armor, the devil comes back to life, they fly around shooting bolts of energy at each other, then Satan pulls out all of Pinhead's nails. Satan then moves to NYC and eats nothing but pizza for the rest of his days.

I am not making any of this up.

That is some Sandman rear end ideas going on right there. Which would be fine if it were a Sandman comic. But I'm assuming the Hellraiser comics didn't take on Gaiman-esq sense of dark whimsy.

I like my idea of killer all-but-in-name-Angels, just to continue Hellraiser's existential 'You are hosed and you brought it on yourself' theming

That was the last time he used Motorhead at least, to my knowledge. I do dig movies later than that myself, while not as magical as before, I take them as their own thing. A different vibe and scene, kind of like digging the B or C tier of Wes Craven movies. Goblin rules, got to see them one time.

Also, by any measure, I think Opera (1987) is one of Dario's best. But I'm a fan of that crazy playing metal during the mayhem tone of horror movie. Which Phenomena was also into. Demons (as producer) also does that, just such a unique time and place stylistically. It appeals to me so much. And I dig a few of his 90s movies, and Mother of Tears is a fun B-movie. I liked Giallo (2009) too, so that's the most recent hit for me.

It is nice to see a comeback. And either way, we'll get a sweet album out of it.

Sleepless is his last legit good movie. I liked The Stendhal Syndrome a lot too. Trauma was filmed in my hometown, so it's kind of neat to see those locations in a movie, and the cast is great, otherwise it's a huge, fun mess. Do You Like Hitchcock? and The Card Player are fine, not perfect but for Italian TV movies (I believe) they are pretty watchable. I guess the less said about Dracula 3D the better. Argento is one of my favorite directors, so I'm a bit biased. Whatever happened to his movie he filmed with Iggy Pop?

It's just a tweet, no article? My first thought was what kind of competition does this new Trolls have? Never mind that theatrical releases in the Before Times had to compete with every activity one could do outside of the home but currently Trolls is one of the few new movies out that was supposed to be released theatrically but done so digitally. Its competition in terms of other new content is mostly the same kind of content that streaming services or cable or On Demand provided normally.

The first one made 346 million dollars BO worldwide, while the article says this made "almost" 100 million on VOD. The budget for this movie is reported being 90-100 million so it's barely breaking even. We can talk about theater cuts, but Apple/Google/Amazon also take their commission from digital sales I'd imagine.

Normally this kind of lower-end franchise would not do that well theatrically, but because so many kids are stuck at home, they will probably do this instead of watching Frozen 2 for the 80th time
