For those who haven't heart, 
horror is not doing so well these days. But that picture above, from 
George A. Romero's upcoming 
Diary of the Dead, leads us to believe that there's still some life in the old dog yet. Sure, it's just a pic of a zombie state trooper walking away from a burning car. But don't you want to know more?
Meanwhile, after a bitter dispute over ... something, it seems like Peter Jackson is 
back on board with New Line Cinema the 
Lord of the Rings prequel, 
The Hobbit. Seems like the smartest move for all involved, but we're not exactly looking forward to this. A family-oriented prequel to a beloved trilogy? Where have I seen 
that before? Although if Ian Holm, Andy Serkis, and Ian McKellan reprise their LOTR roles, it may not be a total washout.
Finally, we knew the whole retro-80s marketing thing was in full effect in the wake of 
Transformers with new 
He-Man and 
GI Joe movies, but now 
Voltron is getting the treatment as well with a script from a guy who, among other things is working on updating 
Street Fighter (
how can it top the original!?) for the new decade. Surely 
this can't be far from a reality, can it?
