A Bit About Bubba..

That's right, kids... Your very own Uncle S. has just found out a few more details about Bubba Nosferatu-- supposed prequel to Bubba Ho-Tep starring our B Movie Cult Favorite, Bruce Campbell.. Sadly, Mr. C. won't be in this version..He's doing his own thing, starring in tv shows, directing, yada yada(whatever bs he came up with to get out of it..).. but.. there's still plenty of reasons to rejoice(lol, really?).



Here's a definite one. Paul Giamatti. Yessir. He's one of mein own fav actors, and the idea that he'll be in a movie like this sorta thrills me....as Colonel Tom Parker no less. Get outta town!







Also, there's some scuttlebutt about Ron Perlman(of Hellboy and to a lesser extent, Beauty and the Beast tv series following..) being Elvis in this one.. Should be interesting to see how he pulls it off.. He's a good actor, though you hardly ever know it's him under all that makeup.



As for me, yes, I'm thrilled. You? Probably lukewarm on it..but who knows.. some of us have had experience with this sort of thing, and are vaguely interested at least. One can only hope. :)


But..seriously.. the idea of Giamatti going all underground to do some high paced, minimal plot, low budget entertainment like this?

It's a no brainer, folks.

And to think I'd actually forgotten all about Bubba. How could I have let that happen?!
