Bruce Campbell wants to make an Expendables for horror.

[Aragorn]

In this internet age where all sites do is quote other sites quoting other sites, I have no idea where the original story came from but you could probably find it if you tried. Anyway, here's Bruce's quote:

"Yeah, "The Expendables," or more like the "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" of horror. I want to get so many horror movie stars that people can't possibly not see the movie. I want to give them other stuff to do. I want to have Kane Hodder be very particular about what he eats. I want Robert Englund to be a tough guy, like he knows tae kwon do or something. I want to find out the hidden sides of all these people. Some will play themselves, some will play alternate characters as well. I may approach Kane Hodder to play Frankenstein. He could be Kane Hodder himself fighting himself as Frankenstein. It could be crazy. It's a silly concocted story that we hope to do maybe in a year or so."

And here's what one site mocked up:

Can I just say:

HELL FREAKING YES!

Bring it on. Right now. With that exact cast, even.

THE WOMEN!!!

Seriously--how can you have an all-star horror movie without a few Scream Queens?

They'd have to get Jamie Lee Curtis, at the very least.

^ Yep I was just going to say they lack Jamie Lee Curtis. I'd toss in Jennifer Love Hewitt and Neve Campbell as well for the "Scream" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer" franchises. Instead of "The Slashables" I'd just call it "The Slashers". Have Wes Craven direct it.

 

[Aragorn]

Gotta have Lance Henriksen. Maybe Malcolm McDowell too? Clint Howard?

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

It won't be complete without Brad Dourif...

 

[God Magnus]

SOLD!

 

[Servo]

Needs Sid Haig, Bill Moseley, and Asia Argento in it too.

 

[barnaclelapse]

Yes please.

They'd probably want Sarah Michelle Gellar over Jennifer Love Hewitt since she's got a larger body of work in horror (though starring in one crappy horror movie after another may have done her in).

In alphabetical order, it'd probably go like this...

Tobin Bell (Saw)
Doug Bradley (Hellraiser)
Bruce Campbell
Neve Campbell
Jeffrey Combs
Jamie Lee Curtis
Brad Dourif
Robert Englund (A Nightmare on Elm Street)
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Lance Henriksen
Kane Hodder (Friday the 13th)
Christopher Lee
Dina Meyer
Tony Todd (Candyman)
with Max Von Sydow
and Christopher Walken

They would need Drew Barrymore to get killed in the first 10 minutes if they make this film.
