Phoenix Pictures and Mike De Luca Prods. have picked up the rights to “Already Dead”, a vampire novel by Charlie Huston. Scott Rosenberg will write the screenplay while De Luca will produce with Phoenix’s David Thwaites and Brad Fischer. The movie “Already Dead” is the first of a five-part series. The book tells of a vampire who works as a private detective and is hired by a socialite to find her runaway daughter in a city where vampires run rampant and feast on the blood of humans in clams. A new virus arises, however, which turns victims into zombies and threatens to destroy the balance between humans and vampires, says Variety. Anyway, I don’t know about you, but the plot sounds pretty nice, I just hope it doesn’t disappoint me in the end. No other details are known, like who’s going to star in “Already Dead” when and where the filming will start and take place, not mention the release date. For this and more information stay tuned!

Sony Pictures set the release date of the last Resident Evil movie for 21 September 2007. The third and final installment of the franchise. The movie “Resident Evil: Extinction” is based - as you already know - on the wildly popular video game series and picks up where the last film left off. Alice (Milla Jovovich), who’s hiding in the Nevada desert, once again joins forces with Carlos Oliveira (Oded Fehr) and LJ (Mike Epps), along with new survivors Claire (Ali Larter), K-Mart (Spencer Locke), and nurse Betty (Ashanti) to try to eliminate the deadly virus that’s turning humans into undead. Since being captured by the Umbrella Corporation, Alice has been subjected to biogenic experimentation and becomes genetically altered with super-human strengths, senses and dexterity. These skills, and more, will be needed if anyone is to remain alive.

Personally I am a fan of the entire series, both movies and games, so I can hardly wait for this horror release of Sony Pictures.

Jessica Alba is working on Sin City and Fantastic Four sequels this year but also has been focused on rehearsing for her role as a blind violinist in her upcoming film “The Eye”.

I’ve been training. I wear a sleep mask and carry a cane to get around with. I’ve also been practicing the violin - it’s hard! It took me three months to figure it out!
