EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW AGAIN, Vol. 19 - September 2020

‘Sup gang? Let’s start things off with some good news: The Spooky Season has begun! I don’t make the rules, y’all: Shudder has started their 61 Days of Halloween programming block and stores nationwide are rolling out their H’ween wares earlier than ever! Another bit of positivity: Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 & 2 are getting a remastered double game re release on Sept. 4th! [Or check out the documentary Pretending I’m Superman about the game here. -ed.] If like me, you’ll be spending All Hallow’s Eve at home this year for safety, maybe the kinds of tricks you’ll be treating yourself to will be sick grinds (that’s one’s for you, Ashley Jane!) and general shredding of the gnar! (*)

(*) DISCLAIMER: I haven’t skateboarded in 20-ish years and even when I did, I didn’t speak it.

On that upbeat note: welcome to Everything Old is New Again! My now-monthly column covering the Remakes, Adaptations and Long-Gap Sequel concepts coming to screens in September. Basically, if it’s a movie or series based on a previous idea in any appreciable way, I will endeavor to find out about it, watch the trailer(s) and give you my opinion on what you can expect. That’s why I opened with the THPS news, it’s essentially a reboot.


Apologies, btw, for the relative lateness of this column. I was quite busy writing coverage of the films playing at Fantasia Fest this year - and I hope you read all the Moviejawn coverage, it was all great and you’ll wanna keep an eye out for a bunch of those flicks in the future - and anyway, time just got away from me. So let’s delay no longer:


AMAZON PRIME:

PREMIERS:

4th:


THE BOYS: Season 2 - Based on the comicbook series created by writer Garth Ennis and artist Darick Robertson, the first season stayed pretty faithful to the central conceit of the comics - that if absolute power corrupts, imagine what that says about folks with superpowers - while changing enough of the details that fans of the series won’t see every twist and turn coming. This season features the rise of a supe (person with super powers) named Stormfront (Aya Cash) who seems to have motives ulterior to just being a “good guy”. There’s also plenty of fighting, explosions, blood-spray, a scene where the titular Boys drive a motorboat through a whale and, oh cool, Giancarlo Esposito! If you get down with irreverent humor and stylized, splattery violence then you should be marathoning the first season to get caught up.

Die, Monster, Die! (1965) - loosely adapted from H.P. Lovecraft’s The Colour Out of Space.

22nd:

DISNEY+:

PREMIERS:

4th:


MULAN - The live-action adaptation of the 1998 animated flick finally becomes available at an increased price which some people have an issue with. I am one of those people. Remember that thing I said above about absolute power corrupting absolutely? Well the Mouse House’s entertainment monopoly means that they don’t have to make Mulan available on multiple streaming platforms for its Sept. 4th premier. They can afford to risk a $200 million movie on the opportunity to see if people will pay a (frankly ridiculous) rental fee ON TOP of a Disney+ subscription fee (which is required). So basically, if you aren’t a subscriber but absolutely MUST SEE Mulan ASAP, you’ll have to pay $7 just to be able to pay an additional $25 to rent Mulan for a few days. I strongly encourage people boycott Mulan and also rise up against our rodent-eared capitalist overlords and bring me the head of Mickey Mouse under a silver cloche! ...or just boycott the Mulan premier. That’s good too.

4th:

HULU:

PREMIERS:

28th:


FARGO: Season 4 - Not unlike what I praise about The Boys above, this series inspired by the Coen Bros. 1996 crime comedy masterpiece mimics the tone of its source material without being especially beholden to the actual depicted events. I mean, I love Fargo, but would I watch a story that I’ve already seen the 2 hour version of play out over 10? I dunno about that. Luckily, that isn’t what showrunner Noah Hawley is asking of us. Each season of his show is self-contained featuring a new story and cast. This one seems focused on the crime syndicates, mafia and unions of the 1950s with Chris Rock as the head of the African American group attempting negotiations with the Italian mafia. Also in these trailers I spotted Jason Schwartzman and - be still my heart - Timothy Olyphant, but boy oh boy, I could go my WHOLE LIFE and never hear Schwartzman say the phrase “slow-pump a baby into your daughter” again, thank you very much.

NETFLIX:

PREMIERS:

1st:



BARBIE PRINCESS ADVENTURE – Based on the enduring doll created in 1959 by Ruth Handler, this promises to be an “all new musical adventure” where Barbie and her cohorts travel to the fictional country of “Floravia” (?) for some reason and Barbie ends up switching places with the local princess. I would imagine that fun and hijinks ensue, but I couldn’t find a trailer so… I’ll just speculate on what *could* happen. Seeing as how she’s deeply unqualified for the job of running the country, I guess she could distract her people from that by waging a very real terror campaign against imaginary foreign agents, perhaps promising to construct a deeply shitty border wall or putting children in internment camps and then simply misplacing them somefuckinghow, all while wasting the country’s money on frivolous trips to go play golf. Actually, no, I don’t think Barbie would do that. Even though she’s the fictional star of an atrociously-animated Netflix special based on a lifeless hunk of plastic, she’s still too smart, too caring, and too ...human to do those things. You’d have to be a real subhuman piece of absolute soulless garbage to do that.

4th:


I’M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS - Based on a novel by Ian Reid, this trailer makes it seem tailor made for Charlie Kaufman to direct. A Young Woman (that’s how she’s credited - Jessie Buckley) goes with her relatively new boyfriend Jake (Jesse Plemons) to meet his parents (Toni Collette and David Thewlis, both in absolute weirdo mode) and things are ...strange to say the least. There’s a deeply unsettling vibe in the trailer (notice that the sound of the dog shaking water off itself plays constantly in the background of the scenes in the parents’ house) and it’s full of strongly Kaufman imagery all seeming tied to the concept of time. The Young Woman describes feeling like she’s seeing the family “as they are, as they will be and after they’re gone” and that while “people like to think of themselves as points moving through time, but I think it’s the opposite” she says, “We’re stationary and time passes through us”. There’s also a line about a photo of Jake that A Young Woman swears used to be a photo of her? I’m definitely intrigued. Just a regular day at the high concept office for ol’ Chuck Kaufman. You can read The Old Sport's review HERE on Moviejawn.

18th:


RATCHED: Season 1  – I’m not saying this isn’t worth doing (one of Ryan Murphy’s trademarked high drama, high production value, high concept, character actors’ cavalcades) but basing it on the villain from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest seems dubious. I’m fully aware that we all contain multitudes and all that, but this tendency nowadays to “humanize” the bad guys troubles me. Not that there aren’t good stories to be found there, but I feel like there’s a direct line between the tendency to turn villains into antiheroes and our current “there are good people on both sides” world. Maybe I’m just a cynic (I am) but the prospect of watching it happen on this show makes my skin crawl. It also seems, tonally, like just another season of American Horror Story, which leads me to believe it will likely suffer from what I have dubbed American Horror Story Syndrome - that being a proliferation of style over substance and a tendency to attempt to mask that fact with an overabundance of topics and talking points (quantity over quality) and an inability to stick the landing. BUT. I know more than a few Ryan Murphy fans who will definitely tell me if this is ultimately worth checking out. If his darker output is your thing, maybe this is for you. I don’t think it’s for me.

23rd:


ENOLA HOLMESMillie Bobby Brown is once again allowed to emerge from the containment unit Netflix keeps her in to film a new project for them. This time she’s playing the 14 year old sister of a 30-something Sherlock Holmes who is also a sleuth. Based on the series of novels written by Nancy Springer beginning with The Case of the Missing Marquess in 2007. To be clear, the character of Enola is a creation of Nancy Springer and has nothing to do with the estate of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but that hasn’t stopped them from filing legal documents claiming that the depiction of Sherlock Holmes violates copyright by having emotions, a trait he did not develop until later in the Doyle stories (and that those specific stories are still trademarked, I guess). Hey, here’s a solution: just create a new sleuth! Here he is Morlock Boneston; he’s a genius, he cries while reading poetry, and he rides one of those goofy pennyfarthing bikes with the one big wheel! Look at that, a completely original character for Enola McNobody to be related to! Solved your problem, Netflix! I presume my check’s in the mail.

ARRIVALS:

1st:

Coneheads (1997) - big screen adaptation of the comedy sketch characters created in 1977 on Saturday Night Live.

Glory (1989) – inspired by the 1973 book Lay This Laurel by Lincoln Kirstein and the 1965 book One Gallant Rush by Peter Burchard. 

Grease (1978) - based on the 1971 musical by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. Also streaming on HBO.

The Muppets (2011) –7th film featuring the characters created in 1955 by Jim and Jane Henson.

Muppets Most Wanted (2014) – direct sequel to the above.

The Producers (2005) – remake of Mel Brooks’ 1967 classic which had become a musical in 2001.

Puss in Boots (2011) – Spin-off from the Shrek films [themselves based on William Steig’s picture book from 1990] starring the character from the fairy tale.

Red Dragon (2002) – based on the 1981 novel by Thomas Harris.

The Smurfs (2011) – feature length CGI/live action hybrid film starring the blue gnomish creatures made popular in a Tv series that aired from 1981 to 1989, but actually began as a Belgian comic strip in 1958.

11th:

How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014) – second in the series of CGI animated films based on a series of children’s books written by Cressida Cowell beginning in 2003.

15th:

Smurfs 2 (2013) - completely uncreatively named sequel to the above Smurfs movie. Hell, at least the second Alvin & the Chipmunks movie had the decency to be called The Squeakquel.

24th:

Real Steel (2011) - vaguely inspired by Steel, an episode of The Twilight Zone written by Richard Matheson that aired in 1963.

SHUDDER:

PREMIERS:

1st:


COLOR OUT OF SPACE - Nicolas Cage stars in this adaptation of one of H.P. Lovecraft’s more gently high concept stories (in that it involves humans realizing how infinitesimal we are in the grand scheme of the whole of existence without having a big, eyeball-y, tentacle-y, nightmare monster). This premiered out in the world last year but I feel like COVID and the quarantine severely limited the flick’s reach, so let’s call this the semi-premier! In this flick, a meteor(-ite? -oid?) lands on the farm of a regular family but since it came from Lovecraft’s deep space, it is all supernatural and spooky and capital-w “Weird”, causing mutations and emanating a light in a color never seen on Earth. A very cool premise for director Richard Stanley to make into a flick!

10th:


NOS4A2: Season 2 - Based on the book by Joe Hill, this series follows Vic (Ashleigh Cummings) and her interactions with an inhuman creature going by the name Charlie Manx (Zachary Quinto). Both have unique special powers - Vic can find lost things by travelling on a mystical bridge and Manx is a type of vampire with access to parallel dimension he calls Christmasland - and have been aware of the other for some time. The first season dealt mostly with Vic’s past while this season is set in her present. She now has a child and has all but forgotten about Charlie Manx, who was left comatose in a prison hospital. But when a news report mentions that Manx has died, Vic is right not to believe it. Manx is of course alive and is out for vengeance against Vic via her son Wayne (Jason David). This show rules, gang. Unfortunately, it was just leaked that AMC has no plans to continue with it past this season, which finishes adapting Hill’s novel, so we won’t get any exploration of the captivating and original world he and the showrunners have constructed. Shame.

24th:


VEROTIKA - If you, dear reader, know anything about me from reading this column - or perhaps THIS article I wrote - you may not need me to tell you that when Glenn Danzig sets out to direct his first feature film, I’m there with time to spare! The fact that it’s an adaptation of stories from his Verotik line of anthology comics (a portmanteau of “violent” and “erotic”, because of course) is just icing on the creepy cake. It should likewise not surprise you to know that I preordered this back in the beginning of the year. So I’ve *SEEN THIS*, gang and when I say you should watch it? You Should Watch It. Is it good? No (it actually starts off pretty weird and that’s cool but each of the three segments is substantially less interesting and less realized than the utterly bizarro first one) but it honestly is worth watching if you are in any way a fan of Glennjamin Danzig (not his real name). As I said in my Letterboxd review: “This was Danzig’s passion project. Every time he watched a movie and it wasn’t THIS, he was disappointed. Think about that.

ARRIVALS:

At some point this month, it seems that Shudder will be getting a bunch of Vincent Price flicks including House of Usher​ (1960), The Masque of the Red Death​ (1964), and ​The Tomb of Ligeia​ (1964) - all adapted from works by Edgar Allan Poe - along with ​Theater of Blood​ (1973; co-starring ​Diana Rigg​), and ​The Monster Club (1981) which aren’t technically EOINA fare but are still Vincent Price movies and therefore probably worth checking out.


1st:

Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992) - don’t let the title fool you, Bram Stoker didn’t produce or direct this flick (he’d died in 1912) but it *is* based on his novel Dracula written in 1897.

The Vampire Lovers (1970) - based on the 1872 novel Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu.

2nd:

Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley’s Island of Dr Moreau (2014) - this doc chronicles filmmaker Richard Stanley’s (of Color Out of Space, above) ultimately failed attempt to adapt H.G. Wells’ 1896 novel The Island of Dr. Moreau. The film *was* released in 1996 however, with John Frankenheimer directing.



So that’s it for this month everyone. I hope you’re all of good health, both physical and mental, and that you’re being responsible despite everyone’s ever-loosening restrictions on public safety. Stay home! Stay safe! Wear a mask! Maintain social distance! Watch movies! But not Mulan! You get my drift.

Thanks as always to Ben and Rosalie for Moviejawn and to my Jawnies for just being yourselves. Thanks to YOU reading this, for reading this! I hope you’ll tell your friends about all the good work being done on the site! Word of mouth, baby! DIY or die!

If you want to hear more of my ramblings, you can catch me on the Hate Watch / Great Watch podcast, on the Moviejawn podcast network, co-hosted by the lovely Allison Yakulis! At the time you are reading this, the latest episode will be Ep.37 - Joy Ride (where Paul Walker and somehow top-billed Steve Zahn drive cross country to pick up Leelee Sobieski and engage in a series of Deadly Goofs along the way!) which is a fun episode!

Until next time, Long Live the Movies!
