Stuart Gordon Aims to Get Stuck
Filed under: Horror, Independent, Thrillers, Cinematical Indie
It only takes one true-blue classic for the horror fans to embrace a filmmaker -- just ask Sean Cunningham -- but in the case of Mr. Stuart Gordon, we have a solid handful of goodies to choose from. Yep, 1985's Re-Animator is the guy's big hitter, obviously, but over the years Mr. G has turned out some fairly entertaining pieces of genre, most notably From Beyond (1986), Fortress (1993) and Dagon (2001). The Chicago-bred filmmaker recently gave William H. Macy some great opportunities in a big-screen adaptation of David Mamet's Edmond -- and now it looks like it's back to the horror scene for Stu.Gordon's next film will be a thriller called Stuck, and it's about the terror that pursues a woman after she stupidly bails from the scene of a nasty hit & run accident. The director will be co-writing Stuck, which is reportedly based on actual events, with a guy named John Strysik, who once wrote a truly awful horror flick called Deathbed ... for producer Stuart Gordon.
Stuck begins production in New Brunswick next week. We'll let you know if any cool casting news hits the 'net. And there's been no new word on Gordon's apparent involvement in House of Re-Animator, but I have my fingers crossed.

I'll check out any Gordon film. His movies are almost always at least watchable. Dagon is one of my favorite horror movies of recent years, hampered only by some lackluster acting here and there.

I contacted Stewart Gordon in Flagstaff when his film "The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit" was showing as part of a festival. I met him in the lobby and he gave me his card from "Red Hen" productions. I called him a few months later to talk about my horror screenplay. He told me to type up a treatment and get back to me. When the treatment and screen play were completed I called Red Hen again and found that he'd moved. Ever sence, I've been trying to get in touch with him by e-mail or any other means and have come up emply. Does anyone know his e-mail or know him personally? If you do, please contact him and pass this info on: Andrew Tucker (623) 544-2741, e-mail: artattack13@cox.net. If you don't know him but you do know how to get a hold of him please contact me. Thanks in advance. I'm confident that he'd be willing to see the treatment he asked me for.-ANDY
