For those of a certain age, he was always there to warn his human friend of "Danger! Danger, Will Robinson!" Now, Parkinson's disease and cancer survivor Dick Tufeld is gone at age 85.
For those old enough to remember the iconic 60's space opera "Lost in Space," there is one voice that clearly cuts through the fog of time.

John Carter director finds humanity on Mars
EMERYVILLE, California - He stands nine feet tall, and is equipped with four arms and tusks. The elongated body, covered with green skin, may seem emaciated, but be warned: This creature comes from a mighty warrior culture and can be a ferocious adversary.
His name is Tars Tarkas, and where do you find him? On Mars, of course - or rather on Barsoom, the name bestowed on the Red Planet by writer Edgar Rice Burroughs a century ago for a series of cult science-fiction novels which have been now disinterred by Disney for its new $250-million adventure, John Carter.

'Prometheus' International Poster Looks Very Familiar
A new international poster for "Prometheus" has been released, but for those of you hoping it would give some insights into the movie's many mysteries, it's a little bit of a letdown. This is pretty much the same poster as the one released in the United States, albeit showing a bit more of that giant stone head that we've seen floating around in the promotional material.

The island of Banoi is a lush, tropical paradise in the South Pacific where its flagship Royal Palms Resort serves as the ultimate getaway for vacationers with money to burn. However, all good things must soon come to an end - and the picturesque resort falls into madness, carnage and chaos after a mysterious and contagious zombie outbreak claims its once peaceful atmosphere. Cut off from the rest of the world, only four individuals who strangely find themselves immune to zombification have the power to protect the remaining survivors from the horrors of the island, to discover what's really going on and find a way to escape before their own fatal ends.
Watch the DEAD ISLAND trailer at Feo Amante Theater.

AIRBORNE NEWS
Welcome Gals and Goblins!
And a warm wet welcome to all of you Goblin Gals!
I'll be tracking the news as it comes for Mark Hamill's latest flick, AIRBORNE.
Mark is probably best known for leaving one of the most popular franchises in cinematic history while it was still great! And before GUYVER he also did Star Wars!
And after GUYVER he did one of the hottest video game franchises of the 1990s, WING COMMANDER! Those were the good old days before the movie put a cigarette out on the whole thing.
Anyway...
Looking back through Mark Hamill's career, Stephen King must have seemed like a good risk back in 1992, but not with Mick Garris directing SLEEPWALKERS.
John Carpenter must have seemed like a good risk back in
1995, but not with his remake of VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED.
