Ridley Scott has been doing a lot of talking lately about the ALIEN prequel he’ll direct for 20th Century Fox. Following his comments that we reported on here, he dished some more about his plans for the 3-D production over the weekend.

Word from those involved in Dimension’s upcoming PIRANHA 3-D has been promising that there’ll be plenty of blood in the water when the movie hits theaters August 27. We previously heard from Eli Roth, who has a small part in the film, here and director Alexandre Aja made the promise here, and now Adam Scott (pictured), who plays the lead role of Novak Radzinsky in the film, is making the claim.

After a typically secretive production, Lionsgate has let a few details loose on SAW VII, the latest entry (and first in 3-D, via the brand new SI-3D digital system) of its popular series, due to cut into theaters October 22. The company released a synopsis as well as a cast list, which includes a returning star from the original film.

Thank heavens we live in a world where B-movie czar Bert I. Gordon, he of the larger-than-life-monsters-vs.-puny-humans classics of the 1960’s and 70’s, still walks among us. With pictures like THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN, EARTH VS THE SPIDER, THE BEGINNING OF THE END, VILLAGE OF THE GIANTS and FOOD OF THE GODS on his résumé (he also worked with Orson Welles on THE WITCHING and made the underrated Zsa Zsa Gabor Gothic PICTURE MOMMY DEAD), Gordon has firmly stamped his signature on B-cinema, creating a body of work that will stand the test of time.
