No really! This is a brand new one that director Darren Lynn Bousman posted via his My Space blog last night! I'll honestly confess that I've been on the fence about this movie since the casting of Paris Hilton. However, Mike and I are huge fans of films like Phantom Of The Paradise, and this new trailer definitely shows that it's going to be something wild, wacky and bizarre in that vein. (Only... gorier?) Regardless, see the brand new trailer for yourself right Here! No release plans yet since the whole fiasco at Lionsgate recently (see Midnight Meat Train), but Bousman promises a great presentation at the San Diego Comic-Con in mid-July.

Anthony Head has revealed his desire to make another appearance in Doctor Who.
Speaking exclusively to Digital Spy, Head affirmed his interest in resurrecting the villainous character of Mr Finch, who he played in the 2006 story 'School Reunion'. "If they ask me I'd say 'yes' in a flash," he said. "I think he should come back. He was good fun. There is a school of thought that he's dead, but you don't see him die. Who knows?"
Head, soon to be seen in BBC One's The Invisibles, . . .

That Anthony Head is a man of many talents. Excellent coffee-bean shaker in those famous Gold Blend ads, the best Prime Minister we never had in Little Britain, and now a master crook in The Invisibles. However, his role as the calm, reserved librarian-cum-Watcher Rupert Giles on Buffy The Vampire Slayer allowed another of his talents to be broadcast to the world - his crooning! Here's the legendary moment which occurred during the fourth season episode 'Where The Wild Things Are'...
The Context
Sunnydale's Scooby Gang is consumed by a mystical force that has emerged from an old children's care home. Their hormones are going crazy and they can’t stop getting amorous with each other - particularly Buffy and Riley. Apparitions start to appear, but one middle-aged librarian needs to let off some steam in an unusual manner.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer was my favorite show while in high school. I had a bunch of friends who watched it and, like all of them, when we first became aware of the show we were all quite reticent to dive in. First of all, the title is simply ridiculous and it just didn't seem like a series that a fifteen year old guy would like. All it took was one viewing, however, and I was hooked. There had never been anything like it – it was a crazy comedy/horror/action/high-school drama hybrid that, somehow, spoke to me as a high schooler more so than any other high-school set series (to be fair, I had yet to discover Freaks and Geeks). Also, a teenage boy has no choice but to fall in love with Sarah Michelle Gellar after watching Buffy. I'd be lying if I said that had nothing to do with my fandom.
