Sophie-Dee-Porn-Star

Nasty little porn queen Sophie Dee took a short hiatus from fucking groups of angry black men to star in the horror short Unmimely Demise. Featured in the upcoming anthology Theater of the Deranged II, the film follows a murderous mime who kills with invisible weapons.

Unmimely Demise is directed by some guy named James Cullen Bressack and stars a bunch of people you don’t know, including Alexei Ryan whose performance as Cheeky the Mime trumps Jean Dujardin’s silent turn in The Artist.

Dee’s most notable creds include the family classics I’ll Take It Black 3, Drink from the Stink, My Daughter Is Fucking Blackzilla and Irritable Bowel Syndrome … as if you didn’t already know. Peep the trailer:

This Sunday, while most of you are busy worshipping the baby Jesus, model/actress and former “World Poker Tour” hostess Sabina Gadecki will be hard at work on Caliber Media’s new monster movie Dark Was the Night.

The 28-year-old, Massachusetts-born stunner joins a cast that includes Kevin Durand (“LOST”), Lukas Haas (Red Riding Hood), Heath Freeman (“Bones”) and Nick Damici (Stake Land). Jack Heller directs from a 2009 Black List script written by Tyler Hisel.

Dark Was the Night follows a group of desperate townsfolk as they attempt to survive an evil beast freed from the woods by a careless logging company. Durand and Haas play the town’s sheriff and deputy. No word on Gadecki’s role, but let’s hope she lives long enough to get a shower scene.

Y Zorro Tambien: Gael Garcia Bernal Is ‘Zorro: Reborn’

Gael-Garcia-Bernal-Hot-Chick-Panties

Gael Garcia Bernal (pictured above … if you look really hard) is set to topline 20th Century Fox’s Zorro: Reborn, an outside-the-box reboot that finds the Spanish swashbuckler turning vigilante in a post apocalyptic wasteland … well, at least he isn’t a vampire.

Zorro: Reborn is written by Glenn Gers, the scribe behind the surprisingly taut Anthony Hopkins/ Ryan Gosling crime thriller Fracture, and newcomers Lee Shipman and Brian McGreevy, whose Dracula based script Harker is set up at Warner Bros.

Bernal’s genre creds include Michel Gondry’s fantasy-romancer The Science of Sleep and Fernando Meirelles’ outbreak thriller Blindness, opposite Julianne Moore. He is, however, best known for his work in dramas The Motorcycle Diaries, Y Tu Mama Tambien and Amores Perros.

Kristin_Kreuk_Leggy

“Smallville” alumna Kristin Kreuk is set to star in The CW pilot “Beauty and the Beast,” a re-imagining that Deadline reports to be loosely based on the CBS series that ran in the late ’80s with Linda Hamilton and Ron Pearlman in the lead roles.

The re-do finds Kreuk playing beauty as a tough NYPD cop named Catherine who protects the identity of the man/beast vigilante—the victim of a military experiment gone bad—who avenged her mother’s murder nine years ago.

Kreuk is best known for her role as Clark Kent’s love interest Lana Lang on The CW’s “Smallville.” The Canadian stunner can also be seen in Shunji Iwai’s indie-pleaser Vampire with Rachael Leigh Cook, the less pleasing Street Fighter: Legend of Chun-Li and the hilarious comedy EuroTrip.

Sherilyn-Fenn-Nude

“Twin Peaks” star Sherilyn Fenn stars in The Asylum’s new creature-feature Big Foot, set to premiere on the Syfy Channel later this year. Actor-turned-sometime-director Bruce Davison helms the project about lifelong rivals hunting down the legendary beast.

Fenn joins a cast that includes Davison (X2), Andre Royo (“The Wire”), Howard Hesseman (“Head of the Class”), rockers Alice Cooper and Billy Idol, and Barry Williams (“The Brady Bunch”) and Danny Bonaduce (“The Partridge Family”) as the Big Foot hunters.

Sherlyn-Fenn-WTF

Unfortunately, time has not been kind to Fenn, whom your penis probably still remembers as sultry sex kitten Audrey Horne on the David Lynch ABC series “Twin Peaks.” If only someone had really amputated the Boxing Helena star’s limbs, she would have never gotten her hands on so many Taco Bell burritos. Damn you, Jennifer Lynch!

Gemma Atkinson’s Horror Debut ‘Night Wolf’ Hits DVD!

gemma-atkinson-orange-bikini

Lionsgate has set an April 24 DVD release date for director Jonathan Glendening’s Night Wolf (formerly titled 13HRS). The film marks the horror film acting debut of British model-turned-actress Gemma Atkinson.

She tells Film 4:

I hope it’s the first of many as I loved it! What drew me to the role is the fact that it’s a horror movie; I love a good gory movie. Yes, many of them are cheesy and predictable, but there’s something about them which we all love. It was also a good story and a great cast and crew, so I was thrilled to be involved.

Night Wolf tells the story of a dysfunctional family trapped in their house during a violent storm while a bloodthirsty creature hunts them down. Toplining the film are Isabella Calthorpe and Harry Potter franchise star Tom Felton.

Atkinson will also be seen later this year in Black and Blue Films’ in-flight frightener Airborne. The busty (34-E!) stunner is best known for playing self-cutter Lisa Hunter on the British teen-soap “Hollyoaks” and its various spinoffs.
