OFFICIAL REMAKE OF ORIGINAL IN THE WORKS!!

Personally, I have nothing to do with Hollywood -- I am a teacher at Beverly Hills high school -- but my husband works in Hollywood and a good friend of his is hard at work on a remake (or re-imagining) of the classic 80's horror film SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT.

He aquired the right to shop the project around town and, while there was a great deal of interest from several studios and independent film companies, it was New Line Cinema who really stepped up to the plate. The executive producers of SNAKES ON A PLANE really responded to the marketing campaign of the original film, though not the film itself, and were extremely interested in a re-imagining of it. The two creative producers are hard at work trying to come up with a new and interesting take on the Santa Claus killer concept while staying true to the tone of the original film.

While no official deal has been struck, as the studio is waiting for the right take on the material, they are very interested and there is a very real possibility that you may see SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT at your local multiplex in the next year or so.

While this could all fall apart, at least with New Line, I figured it didn't hurt to let people know that a SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT remake is indeed in the works.
