Director Wainwright promises his version of "The Fog" will be scarier and have a higher body count than the 1980 Carpenter film. Featuring Maggie Grace ("Lost"), Tom Welling ("Smallville") and Selma Blair ("Hellboy"), this 2005 version of "The Fog" follows the same basic premise as the original horror hit, but kicked up a notch or two. Once again the inhabitants of the small town of Antonio Bay are terrorized by a malevolent force cloaked in a thick, eerie fog. (Photo of Maggie Grace in "The Fog" © Sony Pictures)

Richard Kelly Discusses "Domino"
Even though he's only directed one feature film (though to his credit he is currently at work on his second movie - "Southland Tales"), I don't mind admitting that Richard Kelly is one of my personal favorite directors. Always a great interview, Kelly didn't direct the soon to be released "Domino" movie, but he did write the script. Director Tony Scott helmed the pic and after years of trying to get the script just right, it was "Donnie Darko" writer/director Richard Kelly who came up with the winning screenplay.

In this interview from a little while back, Kelly talks about writing the "Domino" script, why it's only loosely based on the life of bounty hunter Domino Harvey, collaborating with Tony Scott, and "Southland Tales." (Photo of Keira Knightley and Edgar Ramirez in "Domino" © New Line Cinema)

Box Office Report – October 7-9, 2005

"Wallace & Gromit" didn't do quite as well as the studio had expected, however DreamWorks has to be happy the film finished its opening weekend at the top of the charts.
