It's In The Blood - coming soon!

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 20:17:19 +0000

Coming soon...

It's In the Blood is a wholly unique cinematic movement. At its core a father-son story, the film is a deconstruction of the prototypical "creature feature", incorporating elements of mystical realism and psychological thriller. The producers call it a Psyche-Saga. Lance Henriksen stars in this nightmarish descent into the Wilderness, the very heart of darkness where more than your guilt can eat you alive.

We recently heard from Scooter Downey, writer/producer/director of It's In The Blood who advises that his film is now complete and ready to head to film festivals.

Scooter further advises that he has arranged screenings that are coming up at the Derby City Film Festival (February 18th) at the Eifler theater in Louisville, Kentucky (his hometown). Lance Henriksen will apparently be in attendance and after the show they'll be live streaming a Q@A session with the cast and crew including Scooter himself.

There will be additional screenings at the New Jersey Film Festival (January 28th) and at the upcoming Durango Independent Film Festival in Durango, CO this February.

For news about the movie, stories from the set, Lance adoration, and movie musings you can follow the action on Twitter @inthebloodmovie.

More information is available at the film's website itsinthebloodthemovie.com which recently went live inluding the trailer, pictures etc. There are future plans to include interviews, clips, and outtakes. You can also learn more at the inevitable Facebook page.

Scooter says he is "excited to begin to share the movie with Lance fans, horror movie freaks, and indie cinema connoisseurs".

Lance Henriksen at FedCon

Mon, 16 May 2011 10:39:26 +0000

As you may know, Lance Henriksen appeared at FedCon, Europe's largest Star Trek & Sci-Fi convention at the Maritim Hotel, Düsseldorf. The event took place from the 28th April to the 1st of May, 2011. We recently heard from Melanie of www.serieasten.tv who kindly sent us a link to a video which you may like to watch. Serieasten.tv have covered the Sci-Fi convention FedCon for the last 3 years, producing some great video reports about it and this year as Melanie says, was no exception. The video is mostly in German language, but Lance Henriksen and many of the shows guests were speaking in English. Of course you don't need to know the language to get a great feel of the expo and enjoy the great costumes and props.

Check out the video at (and be sure not to miss Lance's hilarious improvisation at the end!):

SYFY's 200th Original Movie Scream of the B...

Tue, 15 Mar 2011 09:49:19 +0000

The premiere of SYFY's 200th Original Movie takes place on Saturday, March 26th at 9pm with Scream of the Banshee, starring Lance Henriksen and Lauren Holly from After Dark Films.

Press Release

SCREAM OF THE BANSHEE WILL BECOME THE 200TH SYFY SATURDAY ORIGINAL MOVIE, PREMIERING MARCH 26 AT 9PM (ET/PT)

New York, NY -- February 28, 2011 -- Since 2002, Syfy viewers have experienced mutated sharks, mosquito men, alligators as big as blimps, vengeful demon moths, pterodactyls, werewolves, dragons and really, really big snakes. Plus earthquakes that split the U.S. in half, man-made volcanoes, space storms, tornados made of ice, magnetic meteors and plagues of killer locusts -- every unnatural disaster imaginable.

Now Syfy celebrates its bi-weekly assault on humanity with the premiere of its 200th Saturday Original Movie, Scream of the Banshee, on Saturday, March 26, at 9PM (ET/PT).

In Scream of the Banshee, when a college professor opens a mysterious and ornate box discovered hidden in the tunnels under her university, she and her students hear the horrifying scream of a bloodthirsty Banshee. Everyone who hears the scream is fated to die a strange and terrible death. Now the professor, her daughter and a few of her students must try to stop the Banshee. A production of After Dark Films, Scream of the Banshee stars Lauren Holly (NCIS) and Lance Henriksen (Alien).

Said Thomas Vitale, Executive Vice President, Programming and Original Movies: “Over the years, the growing popularity of Syfy’s original movie franchise has transformed the Syfy Saturday Original Movies into a pop culture staple. As the largest producer of original movies on television, we’re delighted to be the Saturday night viewing destination for millions of fans of independent sci-fi, creature feature and horror films.”

To mark the occasion, Syfy.com will launch March Monster Madness, the ultimate tournament to determine the king of all Syfy monsters. Thirty-two of our fun and frantic abominations, ranging from Mansquito to Sharktopus, Mega Shark to Gatoroid, and Rock Monster to Basilisk will square off, with users voting to determine the winner of each round and, ultimately, the champion of the Syfy creature pantheon. Fans will be able to see custom trading cards featuring their favorite monsters, share their votes with friends across social media platforms and enter a sweepstakes to win monster-themed prizes.

Not bad for a human: The Life and Films of Lanc...

Wed, 02 Mar 2011 14:38:57 +0000

Writer Joe Maddrey kindly sent us the following press release concerning actor Lance Henriksen's eagerly awaited biography...

Lance Henriksen will be at the Armageddon Expo in Adelaide, Australia, this coming weekend – meeting fans, signing autographs and talking about his forthcoming autobiography, Not Bad for a Human. The iconic actor has been working with writer Joseph Maddrey for more than a year to make the project a reality. “This thing has taken on a life of its own,” Henriksen says. “It started with me and Joe talking in my living room, and it’s become a labor of love by a community of amazing artists.”

The book will be published in a limited edition by Steve Niles and Alex Lodermeier’s Bloody Pulp Books, and will feature original artwork by Bernie Wrightson, Eric Powell, Tim Bradstreet, Mike Mignola, Bill Sienkiewicz and Tom Mandrake, among others. (The lineup may change.) Niles, a well-known horror writer and creator of the 30 Days of Night series, says, "I had no intention of publishing a bio. It's funny because we started Bloody Pulp as a way to publish something I could sell at cons. Artists always have these really cool sketchbooks they sell, so I wanted to do a writer’s sketchbook of sorts. When I read Lance’s book I was so struck by the honesty of it, and the fact that he talked about the work and not gossip, it made me want to publish it... and here we are. I knew we were onto something when I started calling artists. Every single artist I called said yes to the project straight out. I told Lance that's the power of his work. He has fans everywhere."

Co-author Joseph Maddrey, who wrote and produced the 2009 horror documentary Nightmares in Red, White and Blue, adds, “This book shows all sides of Lance Henriksen. We’ve talked about every one of his movies and written about all of the iconic characters he’s played over the years. On top of that, Lance has been very forthcoming about who he is as a person. He said in the beginning that he didn’t want to hold anything back, and he hasn’t.” Henriksen concludes, “This isn’t just a book about me becoming an actor. It’s a book about all the people I’ve crossed paths with over the years who have helped me to flourish in spite of the chaos of my early life. It’s about this lifelong process of becoming a human being. It’s all in there. Believe me, there’s not going to be a sequel!”

The limited edition will be released in late spring / early summer 2011. Excerpts and updates will be posted on the official website, notbadforahuman.com, and on the publisher’s website, www.bloodypulpbooks.com.

Be quick for your chance to own unique Bone Dry...

Thu, 16 Sep 2010 09:23:39 +0000

Back in July, we brought you the heads up news on the forthcoming opportunity to own Lance's amazing vehicle Duke, from Bone Dry. Now courtesy of director Brett A. Hart himself, the auction is live for a very limited time so act quickly.

Not only is there a chance to own the imposing one of a kind Duke, if you are a fan of the movie you may also like to own the actual cactus prop that Lance handcuffed Luke Goss to out in the Mojave desert during that intense 'cactus torture' scene.

Full information follows below but if you're the impatient type, here's the all important links...

Auction Link - 1989 Chevrolet Suburban Lance Henriksen Signed SUV from Feature Film Bone Dry
(Autographed script for the movie ‘BONE DRY’ and rearview mirror signed by Lance Henriksen will be included with the car.

Auction Link - Lance Henriksen Luke Goss "Bone Dry" CACTUS MOVIE PROP
(Autographed copy of script included as bonus)

Good luck!

LANCE HENRIKSEN, BONE DRY (2007)
“If you haven't seen BONE DRY yet, you really need to. You're missing out on one of the best B-movies of all time, and one of Lance Henriksen's best performances of all time. Supremely awesome stuff.” - 411 Mania.com

BRETT A HART, BONE DRY (2007) - BEST B-MOVIE
“He's only directed one movie so far, 2007's Bone Dry, but it was and is such a great movie that he at least deserves an honourable mention. It's one of the best B-movies I've ever seen.” - Bryan Kristopowitz, Honourable Mentions

— Director Brett A Hart offers the ultimate souvenir to the fans of Lance Henriksen, Luke Goss and BONE DRY (2007) —

LOS ANGELES (September 15th, 2010) – In celebration of Lance Henriksen’s 70th birthday this year, Director Brett A Hart www.brettahart.com is offering the fans an opportunity to own the picture vehicle for ‘BONE DRY’ www.bonedryfilm.com lovingly named on set as “DUKE” based on John Wayne’s family nickname ‘THE DUKE’ – as he had a ‘no nonsense’ and ‘take no prisoners’ mentality.

After extensive research on off road vehicles, the Producers of ‘BONE DRY’ chose a Suburban as Jimmy’s menacing means of transportation. The theory was that it was a family vehicle, and when Jimmy’s family is unceremoniously taken from him by Eddie, played by Luke Goss, he and the vehicle undergo a metamorphosis. The truck becomes an extension of his hallow self. Co-writers Jeff O’Brien and Brett A Hart wanted it to appear as if Jimmy, the family and vehicle had all died … and were reborn from hell.

Hart says: “I chose grey with rust to be the polar opposite of another menacing vehicular film that inspired ours – ‘DUEL’. The grey also was a nod toward the first film that shocked me into filmmaking ‘JAWS’. In a way DUKE is homage to Bruce the Shark from ‘JAWS’, the menacing semi truck from ‘DUEL’.”

When having DUKE art directed Hart asked for the vehicle to feel like a prison on wheels, hence the mesh in the back. The fan on the dash was a nod towards ‘DUEL’. He had additional buttons inside to give DUKE a ‘Road Warrior’ vibe.

The horns on the side of the vehicle were suggested by Lance Henriksen himself. They served a dual purpose of appearing like a demonic vehicle and allowed for him to bind and tortured ‘Eddie’ - Luke Goss, throughout the desert hunt that takes place due north of the Mojave Desert all the way to the shocking climatic conclusion.

Now the fans of Lance Henriksen, Luke Goss and ‘BONE DRY’ have the chance to own DUKE by bidding on eBay for this fabulous original picture vehicle used on set by Lance Henriksen. In addition a script cover for the movie ‘BONE DRY’ and rearview mirror signed by Lance Henriksen will be included with the car. This is a wonderful piece of memorabilia for any Lance Henriksen fan.

CACTUS SCENE, ‘BONE DRY’ (2007)
I’m more than a little impressed with Brett A. Hart’s directorial debut. He offers a stylishly grown up thriller that isn’t afraid to get wet with the red stuff. There are a couple moments that will make even a strong man cringe… seriously, the cactus will mess you up - Jimmy O’ Arrow In The Head

THE TOP 5 MOST HORRIFIC NON-HORROR, ‘BONE DRY’ (2007)
Luke Goss is chased across the desert by a whacked out Lance Henriksen for reasons that are not made clear until the end. Goss is exceptional as the protagonist, and Henriksen is insanely good as the villain. He puts Goss through some nasty stuff (handcuffed naked to a cactus, strapped to the hood of a truck, stuff like that). Just a brilliant flick from start to finish – 411 Mania.com

— Director Brett A Hart offers the ultimate ‘one of a kind’ souvenir to the fans of Lance Henriksen, Luke Goss and BONE DRY (2007) —

In celebration of Lance Henriksen's 70th birthday this year, Brett A Hart is offering the fans an opportunity to own the torturous CACTUS from the movie ‘BONE DRY’.

Three years before reading the script ‘BONE DRY’ Director Brett Hart came up with the idea for the cactus scene. He wanted to do a western thriller and this scene was one of the first ideas he had. In high school Hart scraped his hand across a very small cactus on a teacher’s desk, it was immediately painful and his hand quickly started to swell. It was then he realised, if he really wanted to torture someone, imagine how much more painful it would be to be forced to climb a full grown cactus. Then his mind started thinking - what would be even worse, to be forced to climb a cactus naked.

Hart said “When an incomplete script entitled “Mojave” came to me I knew within the first 20 pages that this would be my debut feature film. A simple premise in epic locations, full of suspenseful opportunities with primarily two characters. I quickly assured co-writer Jeff O’Brien that I’d do everything within my means to bring the story to life. The first two things I suggested were to change the title to ‘BONE DRY’ and to add the viscerally disturbing cactus scene I had conjured up years before.”

To create the cactus was more complicated than the production team had initially imagined. Purchasing a cactus and striping it of its needles is both illegal and physically impossible. After much research the team went to Imagivation in LA to make two cacti, one to climb, the other to cut down. Finding needles that looked real was also complex; several different types had to be imported from China. Since this was our signature sequence in the movie with both Luke Goss and Lance Henriksen, we invested quite a bit of the overall budget into the cactus - as much as creating ‘DUKE’ the truck.

On the day the cactus scene was due to be filmed, Hart totalled his Tahoe in a 4 car/ semi truck collision. Still they kept on moving and started shooting perhaps the most “intense” scene of the movie. Hart said he had a different take on life after that wreck and wasn’t going to let anything stop him from shooting the “hallmark” scene he had envisioned for, by then, 5 years.

Now the fans of Lance Henriksen, Luke Goss and BONE DRY have the chance to own the CACTUS by bidding on eBay for this fabulous original picture prop. Click on the following link for the auction:

Lance Henriksen at the recent Rue Morgue/Fan Ex...

Mon, 13 Sep 2010 10:20:51 +0000

As you may know, actor Lance Henriksen appeared at the now somewhat controversial Fan Expo held last month, which is Canada's largest horror expo, attracting an average of 40,000+ fans to the heart of down town Toronto over three days in August. This powerhouse event is an extravaganza of celebrity guests, autograph signings, parties, Q&A sessions, seminars and workshops, and a colossal selection of movies and movie memorabilia, including books, comic books, toys, video games, trading cards, posters, anime, manga, and tons more.

For those of you affected by the overly long queues, alleged poor management and packed out event, you might like to know that the organisers have posted an apology on their website, and have issued a promise to increase the amount of space available at next years event.

According to Wikipedia...

Quote

The 2010 event left thousands of fans standing outside as capacity became an issue, many waiting several hours for re-entry. At one point during Saturday afternoon organizers announced (to a small group by the doors) that they would not be letting anyone else in, including those who had purchased tickets in advance, but the majority of fans remained unaware of this and continued to queue in ignorance until word-of-mouth reached them. Eventually they announced that they would be staying open an extra hour to try to accommodate the lines, though many had waited for more than 2 hours for re-entry.

...

Attendance reaches facility limit and Toronto Fire Marshal's office halts ticket sales for four hours on Saturday afternoon. Significant backlash from organizers continuing to sell tickets to new patrons while paid attendees locked outside documented by media.

The problems can be seen about 2 minutes into this video at Youtube which contains some strong language, be warned, but you have to feel sorry for these customers.

That aside, we really hope that you got the opportunity to get inside and meet Lance, if you did make it, why not share the moment with other fans in our dedicated Conventions and Appearances forum, or add some photos to our Gallery in the Convention Memories category, or links to online videos in our Convention Video Memories section.

As you can see we have added some photos of Lance's appearance to our gallery courtesy of the kind Rue Morgue and Fan Expo website contributors but we'd love to see some more, so if you managed to make it inside the massively over packed event, please let us know of your experiences and what it was like to meet Lance Man.

Godkiller is a series of graphic novels and illustrated films created by award-winning filmmaker Matt Pizzolo that tells the stories of human beings caught in the crossfire of warring fallen gods.

Resembling a violent sci-fi/horror comic, Godkiller is set to have a limited theatrical release coming September 29, 2009 followed by the inevitable DVD release.

Quote

Godkiller takes place in a dark future after economic collapse, after nuclear holy war, and after Earth is colonized by alien races. Tommy and his kid sister Lucy live in an orphanage in one of the few remaining city-states, but Lucy is critically ill and desperately in need of a new heart. Tommy's odyssey to find a new heart for his sister begins when he follows an organ-stealing prostitute named Halfpipe out of the city-state and into the savage border-land known as Outer City. Godkiller mixes unforgiving brutality, quantum physics, conspiracy theory, and secret history for an iconoclastic hero's journey like none before it. This "illustrated film" features intense comic art with mind-bending motion graphics, blood-pumping music, otherworldly sound design, and voice acting by some of the most exciting performers in genre films and youth-culture.
