Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with an update on the goings on from Danny and Oxide Pang (Directors of THE EYE). Looks like they're taking a whack at Top Cow's comic book THE DARKNESS, about a mafia hitman who finds out he's an heir to a spooky and supernatural force. Platinum Studios and Blue Star Pictures have raised half the budget on their own and Miramax has an option to distribute the flick. When I first read about the Pang Brothers and Darkness it took me a while to shake Charlie Murphy and Rick James out of my mind... but that's probably just me.
I don't know this material, but I really liked the first EYE flick (apart from the "raining bodies" scene I didn't much care for the second one). Very curious about this one. Hopefully the fans (or haters) of the Top Cow comic can give their two cents below.
