Thursday's parting shot

We received a lot of queries today about what was filming on Avenue A along Tompkins Square Park ... the production notices read "Nine Orchard," which is likely a fake name. 

Anyway, we don't know! But! There may have been a stunt vampire, per this phot by Derek Berg...

  1. The posted noticed called the production "L.T.R.O.I." which by some miracle my brain recognized immediately as Let The Right One In, which is a really fantastic Swedish vampire film from 2008. So presumably this will be the shitty American remake.

  2. The 2008 Swedish film was a well made shocker.
    The 2010 Americanized version, "Let Me In", total garbage.
    Why does Hollywood always assume that remakes are worth the effort?
    The only remake in recent times that was worth its salt was the 2012 movie "Dredd".

  5. If you have time this summer to sit inside with the a/c on and do some production comparisons, I recommend the sci-fi(ish) Glitch series. There's an Australian version, which I think is excellent, a French version which is pretty good, and then the shitty American version.
