We told you about House of Re-Animator possibly getting ready to go the other day. Today Fango got the word on a terrific piece of casting news. Here is the report straight from Fangoria:
Confirming an item we first reported here, Halcyon International Pictures has officially announced that William H. Macy will star as the President of the United States in HOUSE OF RE-ANIMATOR. The sequel, which reunites the original RE-ANIMATOR team (director Stuart Gordon, producer Brian Yuzna, writer Dennis Paoli and lead actor Jeffrey Combs), focuses on a Bush-like president who dies in office. His staff covertly brings in Dr. Herbert West to reanimate the Commander in Chief, and the expected chaos ensues.
Man, I love the original film and with all the key players returning for this new film I am having high hopes that some of that magic may get recaptured. This one could end up being a major genre event, keep it right here for all the latest.
