Remakes get a bad rap, and frankly it’s sometimes deserved. At their worst, remakes can be pointless exercises in flattening an interesting film into something broader and less singular. Whether it’s a shot-for-shot remake like Gus Van Sant’s notorious “Psycho” redux or a misguided switch up like the execrable 2012 “Total Recall,” many remakes offer nothing of value.

These issues are often only magnified when an American director decides to put their own spin on a film that originated from outside the states. From overly sentimental mush like “Coda” or “The Upside” to dismal J-horror remakes like “Apartment 1303 3D” (remember that? No we didn’t either) to Will Ferrell starring in a broad comedic take on “Force Majeure” called “Downhill,” these international remakes often have nothing to offer compared to their originator except for putting the story in English. It brings to mind Bong Joon-ho’s famous...

Apartment 1303 3D is already available on VOD, but it’s getting a limited theatrical release this weekend and we have three new clips from the movie.

“Having grown up under the controlling grip of her fame-hungry mother (Rebecca De Mornay), Janet Slate (Julianne Michelle) jumps at the opportunity to move into what looks to be a great high-rise apartment in downtown Detroit. Yet some deals are too good to be true as one night her boyfriend Mark (Corey Sevier) finds her in the middle of the street – having fallen from the balcony thirteen stories above. When her sister Lara (Mischa Barton) tries to investigate the mystery of what happened, she moves into the same apartment and encounters the odd neighbors in the building, including an eerie nine-year old girl who seems to somehow know the real reason for Janet’s fall. Lara soon realizes that her sister’s death...

Thank you very much for taking the time to chat with us. Apartment 1303 3D is your first horror film. What attracted you to the role of Janet?

Julianne Michelle: Thank you, Jonathan!

In my last film, Awakened (with Steven Bauer, Edward Furlong, John Savage, Stelio Savante, Sally Kirkland,...

Struggling to find your place in society, and achieve personal freedom from an overbearing parent who only thinks about themselves, are powerful incentives to drive vulnerable young adults to become susceptible to evil entities and influences. That’s certainly the case with Janet Slate, one of the lead characters in the new independent 3D horror film ‘Apartment 1303 3D,’ which is set to be released on Friday in theaters and on cable/internet VOD. Actress Julianne Michelle explores how the character’s questioning of the unknown lurking in her new apartment, which is supposed to offer her solace from her family, can actually cause more harm than she ever expected.

Warner Bros. was confident enough in The Conjuring that they gave it a summer release, but we’re not sure that they expected the R-rated horror movie to cross the $40 million mark. Strong word of mouth should keep this movie in theaters for a decent amount of time and, as we reported earlier, a sequel is already in the early planning stages.

On the other hand, Warner is having a tough time with Pacific Rim. The movie won over genre critics and fans, but wasn’t able to attract a large enough audience to make up for its $190 million production budget with domestic ticket sales alone. It earned $15.9 million in its second weekend and has made a total of $68.2 million since opening in the Us.

R.I.P.D. failed to generate any real interest, placing seventh in its opening weekend. The movie carried an estimated production budget of $130 million...

Another indie drama is coming, so you better get ready for some Fast Life!

Sounds awkward, but now when Barton is on board – we’ll give them a try! So, at this moment, the only thing we know about Fast Life is that the story will center on an ad exec who falls in with an unsavory fast money crowd, only to be drawn to its antithesis when introduced to an unimpressed young woman.

The latest poster for Apartment 1303 3D has been available for awhile now, but this is the first time info' on this horror title has passed along the newswire. Apartment 1303 is a remake of a 2007 film from director Ataru Oikawa. Both versions of the film deal with a cursed apartment that leads many occupants to suicide over and over again. The curse cannot be broken. In the North American version, filmed in Montréal, Québec, the cast is made up of Mischa Barton (Homecoming) and Rebecca De Mornay (Mother's Day). Expect De Mornay to play the mother and Barton will play the older sister who has just lost her sibling to suicide. This film is in post-production and fans of the Japanese style of filmmaking might find something that draws them nearer in this latest title. More cast and crew details for Apartment 1303 3D are inside.

Writers: Jim Steele (screenplay), and Michele Taverna.

Mischa Barton isn't afraid of the "Dark."

The former "O.C." star is set to get existentially romantic as she's signed on for the lead role in "I Will Follow You Into the Dark," according to Variety.

Barton will be playing a young woman (the "I" in the title, we're assuming) who's drawn out of a deep depression over the death of both her parents by an unexpected romance; when her new lover goes missing, she sets out to find him -- a journey that may take her beyond the "living" world. Leah Pipes ("Sorority Row"), Ryan Eggold ("90210") and Jaz Martin are also attached to star.

Hmm ... we hate to say it, but this kind of reminds us of Lindsay Lohan's brilliant train wreck of a movie, "I Know Who Killed Me," especially since it has another somewhat troubled young starlet in the lead role. Well, if the comparison ends up sticking,...

Bloody-Disgusting got their hands on the official one-sheet for the remake of Apartment 1303 3D, based on the Japanese flick.

The remake stars Mischa Barton ('Homecoming'), Rebecca DeMornay ('Mother's Day') and Julianne Michelle ('Horrorween'). Check out the poster and synopsis below along with a nice pic of Miss Barton....

Bloody Disgusting just scored a pretty awesome sales one sheet for Daniel Fridell's 3-D remake of Apartment 1303 3D, which will star Mischa Barton (Homecoming, Walled In, The Sixth Sense), Rebecca De Mornay (Mother's Day, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle), John Diehl (Stargate, Jurassic Park III), Julianne Michelle (Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps), and Robert Blanche ("Crash," "Ghost Whisperer"). The poster, featuring a wall coming to life, looks inspired by the infamous sequence in A Nightmare on Elm Street. Penned by Kei Ohishi and Michele Taverna, the redo of the 2007 Japanese flick is a modern ghost story which turns a love/hate relationship between mother and daughter into a tale of horror. Some rentals are too good to be true.
