Axe Giant: The Wrath Of Paul Bunyan is a contemporary take on the tall tale of lumberjack Paul Bunyan.

Official package art is in for Ghost House Pictures' Boogeyman 3 , coming to DVD on January 20th. In the third chapter of this supernatural saga, the crotchety ghoul that goes bump in the night gets some higher learning and heads to college where he causes trouble for student Sarah Morris ( Supernatural 's Erin Cahill). Boogeyman 2 scribe Brian Sieve returned to write this entry for director Gary Jones ( Ghouls ). Sony's DVD will come with a trailer and three making-of featurettes. But why wait for the disc?

DVD Active confirmed the suspicions none of us cared to have that there would indeed be a second direct-to-video Boogeyman film. Gary Jones, who brought us the memorable Ghouls (review), has been tasked with the challenge of making a budget DVD movie in Bulgaria. How could any of this go wrong?

"When college sophomore Sarah Morris witnesses the alleged suicide of her roommates, it sets into motion a series of horrific events that cause Sarah to fear the supernatural entity known as the Boogeyman. As she tries to convince the rest of her dorm that the Boogeyman does exist, the evil force grows stronger and her friends begin to pay the price. Now Sarah must stop this ultimate evil before the entire campus falls prey because the question isn’t whether or not the Boogeyman is going to get them…it’s How and When!"

How can we pass all...

Director/VFX Supervisor Gary Jones (Mosquito, Spiders) dropped me an email about Ghouls, his new film premiering on the Sci-Fi Channel this weekend. Sci-Fi must really be high on the film since I've seen ads hyping it as not just an original movie premiering, but as an "event".

Ghouls tells the tale of a college student (Kristen Renton, "Days of Our Lives") returning with her father (William Atherton, Die Hard, Ghostbusters) to his home country only to discover her family holds a dark secret that involves her.

It also involves some spectral ghouls that fly around attacking people, not all that dissimilar to the Dementors from the Harry Potter films, though I suspect the aftermath of one of their attacks is far more unpleasant.

Also starring in the Romanian-filmed fright flick from writer Brian D. Young (Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep) are James DeBello (Cabin Fever, Detroit Rock City) and...
