Occasionally, movies come out that are so bad, studios refuse to screen them for critics. To help give you a heads-up, here's our take on the trailers.
It appears Wainwright stayed true to his source material in his remake of John Carpenter's famous 1980 horror flick about a cursed island.
A century earlier, the inhabitants of Antonio Bay lured a ship onto the rocks to kill its leper-ridden passengers and steal the ship's gold. Now when a mysterious fog rolls in and blankets the town on the wreck's centennial (sorry, Oscar), people start to die in all sorts of fashion.
Blair takes Adrienne Barbeau's role and Grace plays then-scream-queen Jamie Lee Curtis' part, with Smallville's Welling taking a character played by Tom Atkins.
The original made a big deal out of the zombies with meat hooks only having an hour to kill (between midnight and 1 a.m.). It's a brilliant idea and a real tension-builder—the timer, not the hooks—but it's impossible to say whether Wainwright followed the master's lead in what is still a nail-biter of a movie trailer. We just have to trust he left out the zombie-meat-hook aspect.
