Horror Headlines: Friday September 28th, 2012

Hey gang, Casey here! Joe's on the move, [read: Mid Westerner Indoctrination Camp] so I'll be stepping in to man the news desk on this almost-October Friday morning! I may not be quite as sassy as Joe, but I still have a few yuks left in me. In the meantime, you kids? Get off my damn lawn.

Daniel Radcliffe taking the lead as 'the hunchback' in Fox's upcoming "Frankenstein" revisionist take? Sure, why not! It's not official as of yet, but I'm just saying Fox... if you give Radcliffe what he wants, my ticket's already bought.

Fangoria's teaming up with Anthrax's Scott Ian and the Nerdist Network to bring you a new YouTube show called "Blood & Guts With Scott Ian". They're going to talk about horror FX work. Scott Ian, geeking out on gore FX. I'm not trying to be snarky here, this sounds bad-ass!

After Rupert Wyatt's abrupt exit, Who is 20th Century Fox turning to for "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes"? The decision is far from final, but "Cloverfield" helm Matt Reeve is high on the list of contenders. If I have to watch Caesar fight the Cloverfield Monster? Well, I'd be all right with that.

In Real People News:

A former Idaho beauty queen slips and hits her head on a rock causing massive brain swelling. In response, doctors remove a quarter of her skull and store it in her stomach for six weeks! See, there's proof that not all beauty queens are full of hot air up there.
