This could have gone in short films, but it is horror.
This is not safe for work in video or audio. This is a freakin
nightmare of claymation.

This looks to be a completely different take of the worn out
'cabin' and 'woods' horror films. Check out the trailer

[glow=red,2,300]YouTube Launches Genre Channel 'BlackBoxTV';
What Horrors Can We Expect?![/glow]
[quote]It was only a matter of time before YouTube used its
domineering online presence to transform into an authentic
television medium. Launching this April on Friday the 13th is
"BlackBoxTV", a new online television station dedicated to our
beloved genre. Moving away from independently produced content,
"BlackBoxTV" is the real-deal folks, a genuine web-based channel
that will be jam-packed with all sorts of horror goodness from
scripted anthology shorts to a documentary-style visit to
haunted location across the planet. The most exciting endeavor,
though, is that Bloody Disgusting will be partnering on "Black
Friday," their weekly program dedicated to what's new and cool
in the genre!
Now that the "BlackBoxTV" initiative has officially been
announced, Bloody Disgusting caught up with creator Tony E.
Valenzuela and producer Anthony E. Zuiker ("CSI") who both
exclusively reveal what we'll see in the coming year on the new
station! Dig on the interview after the break and go join the
350,000 subscribed members here. Watch this spot for tons more
in the coming months.
BLOODY DISGUSTING: Can you tell us the origin story of how the
two of you came to team up on BlackBoxTV?
ANTHONY E. ZUIKER: About a year ago, I was shown BlackBoxTV on
YouTube. I was blown away by the quality of the storytelling,
the visuals, as well as, admittedly, the viewership. We sat down
with Tony and initially set about developing an anthology TV
series based on the shorts. Right around this time, Tony
approached us and said that YouTube was interested in him
pitching a channel idea for their new Premium Content
initiative. He asked if my company, Dare to Pass, and I would
come on board and, of course, it was a no-brainer! We pitched
our take and fortunately for us YouTube loved it and we received
this really amazing opportunity.
Bloody Disgusting: Tony, you are one of the pioneers of horror
and thrillers in the new media space on YouTube. What made you
decide to jump into this world?
TONY E. VALENZUELA: For me it's about Ray Bradbury, Alfred
Hitchcock and my general love of short stories and scary tales.
I decided to start making content for YouTube that I wanted to
watch, and wasn't already on there. I wanted horror, science
fiction, thrillers that I could only get through classic TV and
film. When I worked on my first project, "2009 A True Story", I
really became involved in the art of online scripted content,
and from there I knew it was something that grabbed me.
Bloody Disgusting: What does this new deal with YouTube mean for
scripted programming in general?
Anthony: I think we have a really amazing opportunity here. Our
goal is to bring the same level of storytelling that you see on
television and in features to the web. Thanks to YouTube, not
only have been provided the means to produce those stories at an
exceptionally high level but we also have a distributor who is
interested and willing to provide that content to the masses.
Tony started that with BlackBoxTV. Using little more than a 5D
and favors, he's built up a loyal following that any
writer/director would love to have. And he did it with story and
characters and concepts that connected to the YouTube audience.
We're looking to build on top of that foundation, expand the
content a little bit, bring in high-level writers and directors,
and say, here's what web content can be.
Bloody Disgusting: Can you gives us an overview as to what the
content of BlackBoxTV will be releasing when the new channel
goes live?
Anthony: The bulk of our programming will be the return of
BlackBoxTV, in the form of a series. It's a new anthology genre
series, containing horror, thriller and sci-fi, that we're
describing as "The Twilight Zone" set in the town of Twin Peaks.
We'll be premiering two of those a month. Once a month we'll
have a short film of the week in the form of Anthony E. Zuiker
Presents. High-level writers, directors, stars coming in and
delivering a new, fresh short film. Another show we have is
called "True Stories," a doc-style show that is an overnight
experience where unexplained events have occurred, which will
have both a live and edited component to it. "Black Fridays," in
partnership with Bloody-Disgusting.com, is a hosted show
featuring what's new in genre programming, from debuts of movie
trailers, to video games, TV and more. And finally, a couple
times a year, we'll have a "Film Festival" style show where we
premiere or highlight the best of short films, web series and
more. As you can see, it's a lot.
Bloody Disgusting: Tony, how does this new line of programming
and original content differ from the BlackBoxTV that so many
fans have learned to love.
Tony: I think the main difference is that we want to not only
have the anthology series but really draw and support the
genre-based stuff that Anthony and I love so much.
Bloody-Disgusting is one of my favorite sites out there, so I
feel very lucky to partner with them. Through our live
"Hauntings," we'll get to go to some amazing locations like the
Villisca Axe Murder House in Iowa. Dive deeper into narrative
and anthology with the plethora of directors and talent that
Anthony is bringing in for Anthony E. Zuiker Presents. Anthony
has a twisted and awesome mind, and to work with him on a
project like this is truly amazing. We also have an amazing
production team working with us, including Carly Feingold, who
had worked with Wes Craven for so long.
We are going to show YouTube and the world exactly what we can
do with the medium. I honestly don't see a limit to YouTube and
I want to see how far we can push it. This is something very
different. Not a cookie-cutter reality series, that fans of the
genre can really sink their teeth into.
Bloody Disgusting: When can fans expect to see these shows go
live?
Tony: Weekly programming begins April on Friday the 13th 2012.
Leading up to that, however, we are putting out a series of
prequels on the main channel, YouTube.com/BlackBoxTV, as well as
a few live "Hauntings" fans can tune in to. Also, over at
YouTube.com/BlackBoxTVExtras, we will have plenty of content
going up before the April launch which will include casting
news, weekly behind-the-scenes features, and production diaries.
You won't want to miss it!

Is Blackbox TV a separate entity that will just used YouTube to
get a wider audience or is it exclusive to YouTube? What I'm
getting at is if it's seperate like that of Crackle.com, then
this might end up on my Roku which I'm all for. If it's YouTube
only, then I'll have to make do from Computer.

Unbeknownst to the group, the site was formerly used as an

I typically don't link rumor's until it's a go on the set, but
this just hits home with me. I have a special place in my heart
for certain movies and the cheesy Day Of the Triffids is one of
them (The movie, I've not scene the mini-series). There are
certain scenes that are very creepy and for the time it was
made, not a bad movie. I could see this being remade with some
very up to date look and feel. Still maybe cheese, but then
again, maybe the best monster movie evah.
The book was decent. Much like War of The Worlds
[glow=red,2,300]Ghost House Pictures Taps Writer For 'Triffids'
Revamp[/glow]
[quote]Ghost House Pictures has tappped Neil Cross ("Luther") to
write The Day of the Triffids, based on the sci-fi horror novel
written by John Wyndam and the 1962 film, reports Variety. Still
no word on if Sam Raimi will direct.
"A shower of meteorites produces a glow that blinds anyone that
looks at it. As it was such a beautiful sight, most people were
watching, and as a consequence, 99% of the population go blind.
In the original novel, this chaos results in the escape of some
Triffids: experimental plants that are capable of moving
themselves around and attacking people. In the 1962 film,
however, the Triffids are not experimental plants. Instead they
are space aliens whose spores have arrived in an earlier meteor
shower."
Cross currently has several feature scripts being produced by
Guillermo Del Toro including the horror film Mama, staring
Jessica Chastain, which is in post-production.
The film will be produced by Ghost House Pictures, The Mark
Gordon Company, and Preger Entertainment, LLC.[/quote]
While this has nothing to do with this news, I ran across this

Now imagine this thing alive and
attacking you.

I won't be paying to see this, but I will be seeing it. Good fun
in every way possible. Blood, gut and gore, sex, cussing and
drinking. What else do you need?
