GO TO HELL

Bwahh? Remaking ANGEL HEART? Really? Is this freaking necessary? Apparently so. In a sludge-brained quest for material Hollywood is dropping the deuce on Alan Parker's cinematic horror/noir masterpiece. Hey, man...I'm not against writer William Hjortsberg making some scratch, but come on. DeNiro? Rourke? Oh, what's that? The producer did "Ghostrider"? Yeah. Like THAT was awesome. Heard a rumor that Cruise and LaBeouf were attached and I nearly had a stroke. Calm down, people. Thankfully that rumor was just hearsay. But cripes...you never know.
