It's Alive (2009)

Friday's @ the Rant are for new upcoming horror flicks. This week there has been some buzz about a 3minute extended trailer for the remake of 1974's It's Alive to be released sometime soon. Maybe this year, maybe 2009... no one is sure just yet. Keep your eyes open to see if you can catch the new monster baby. Will it be cheesy or will it be frightening?

Larry Cohen is back as the writer while Jeff Rusnak (Second Unit Director on 1998's US Godzilla) takes the director reins. The movie stars Bijou Phillips (The Wizard of Gore, Hostel Part II), James Murray (BBC's Primevil), Skye Bennett (BBC's Torchwood), Raphaël Coleman, Jack Ellis.

So here it is ... It's Alive
