What do you get when you merge a dork with a saucy ex-13-year-old and a tough, star-tattooed fighter of evil?Variety reports that DJ Qualls, Nikki Reed, and William Sadler have signed on for an indie comedy by Vlad Yudin called Last Day of Summer. The film, which has a SAG waiver and is already in production in the Big Apple, focuses on an an agitated dude who works at a fast-food place. When he can't take it anymore, he plans to get revenge on his boss, but finds the plan disrupted by a beautiful customer that drops by. I'll take a wild guess and say that Qualls is the worker, Sadler is the boss, and Reed is the customer. It may be a crap job, but at least you know that if Billy Zane comes to kill you, Sadler can fight him off.
So, we know that Reed is getting vampiric these days with Twilight, and Sadler is taking a trip to The Hills Run Red, but what about Qualls? Do you even remember the guy? I had totally forgotten his name, but this is the dorky dude who played Kyle on Road Trip and starred in The New Guy. Remember? Is it time for a Qualls comeback!?
Casting Bites: From Hills That Run Red to S. Darko

Here are some horrorific casting bites, courtesy of Variety:Have you ever adored a man from just one role, even if you haven't/don't see him in much else? That's me and William Sadler, whose name always catapults me back to Friday the 13th, 1995 when Demon Knight opened in theaters, and his Brayker took on Billy Zane's The Collector. Now the actor is teaming up with Sophie Monk for a new slasher movie called The Hills Run Red, which is filming in Bulgaria. The film focuses on a movie fan who is obsessed with finding a full print of a slasher movie, finds himself in the woods where the film was shot, and then realizes that the filming never ended. Dum, dum, dum.
Also, further cast have signed on for the dreaded sequel -- S. Darko. Now, if you pop over to Variety, don't get excited thinking Paige Davis has signed on. While her picture is currently attached to the post (as of 11 AM), it's actually Matt Davis, who played Reese Witherspoon's snooty boyfriend in Legally Blonde, who has signed onto the film with James Lafferty (One Tree Hill). Sorry, Trading Spaces fans. Meanwhile, Briana Evigan defended the film on Friday, but even with her glowing recommendation, I still think this sequel is one of the dumbest movie moves in a while.
