The guys over at the H.P. Lovecraft centered blog Unfilmable.com have just posted an interview they made to visionary director Richard Stanley, the guy behind Hardware (1990), Dust Devil (1992) and The White Darkness (2002). For those of you who are interested, Stanley goes on to talk about many of his upcoming projects including his participation in the upcoming anthology film called The Theater Bizarre thats being produced by Severin Films.
The interview is in depth and extremely epic! He even talks about a treatment he wrote for Argento that would have been the third film in the whole Three Mother Trilogy wich sounds a heck of a lot more interesting then what The Mother of Tears ended up being. Stanley also speaks about the possibility of seeing Hardware II: Ground Zero (the sequel to Hardware) getting made. He also speaks about his favorite Lovecraft stories as well.
Head on over to Unfilmable.com and check out this amazing interview to this offbeat and extremely imaginative director!
And finally, for my review of Stanley's Hardware (1990) head on over here.
Thanks for the heads up on this. I've always found Stanley a fascinating guy and his stories about working on THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU are fascinating. And I've thoroughly enjoyed HARDWARE and DUST DEVIL. I sure hope he gets those feature-length films off the ground.
ReplyDeleteHe's always been one of my favorites as well. He is not the kind of filmmaker that Hollywood loves, but I love that he can still find a way to make the movies he wants to make. He has that integrity to himself as a filmmaker, the integrity that doesnt allow him to sell out, which is great, I respect the guy for that.
