According to a report in The Hollywood Reporter, Summit Entertainment is remaking Highlander. Before you start remembering with horror all those Highlander sequels and your bitter regret for having lost those precious, precious hours of your life, there's some good news! Iron Man's co-writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway are teaming up again to write the script. Back on the possibly less optimistic end of the scale, Peter Davis will again be producing, as he has for most of the franchise's run. He even produced last year's Highlander: The Source, no doubt earning him some sarcastic fans' quoting of the original movie's famous promise that "there can be only one."

Also a little on the iffy side of things is the news of Dawn of the Dead's update. The classic horror flick is not being remade. Rather, the original footage is being gussied up with "stereoscopic 3-D for a planned theatrical release." Because a horde of zombies wasn't scary enough on their own, New Amsterdam Entertainment dug them up for re-processing with In-Three's proprietary "dimensionalization" process. The film will be converted to 3-D at a cost of $50,000 to over $100,000 per minute. For that kind of money, you should be able to create a plague that would make you some actual zombies.
