Chris Columbus To Bake a Killer Pizza

[The Apatow Crew]

1492 Pictures, a production outfit run by Chris Columbus (Harry Potter, Gremlins, The Goonies), and CJ Entertainment are at work on three new horror films.

Most notable is it appears Adam Green (Hatchet, Frozen) has been accepted into the Columbus fold. Green will be directing Killer Pizza under the 1492 and CJ partnership. The film follows a teen who takes a gig at the eponymous pizza delivery joint which is really a cover for a monster hunting organization.

Neil Gaiman's "The Graveyard Book" is also part of the deal. The adaptation focuses on an orphan raised by ghosts. Neil Jordan was once attached to direct.

And, finally, Columbus will write Carpe Demon. This adaptation of "Carpe Demon: Adventures of a Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom," by Julie Kenner, concerns a soccer mom turned demon hunter.

I like the monster hunting thing organization. Plus I like the director Green.

lOL.

People say they want more original, its kinda original, plus there aren't much monster hunting movies. i feel it could be a mixture of Monster Squad and Goonies, but they are grown ups.

That seems to be the case.

I enjoyed Monster Squad a while back.

It should be good. Columbus made two of my favorite childhood movies of the 80's with The Goonies and Gremlins.

Funny, I thought of the giant pizza from that one season of Power Rangers.

The title is kind of misleading, but the plot is pretty damn cool sounding.

HA! Yeah, I forgot about that work.

But apparently this is based on some sort of kids novel.

I know, I hate when certain movies only get a limited release in theaters and then have to wait forever for them.
