Here's a copy of what's on the website, btw:
October 19: Tim Sullivan’s DRIFTWOOD ready to roll
Former FANGORIA scribe and longtime pal Tim Sullivan sure is on a roll. His 2001 MANIACS (which he co-wrote and directed) screens on Friday at Hollywood’s Screamfest (see below) prior to its Lions Gate debut, while SNOOP DOGG’S HOOD OF HORROR (which he co-produced and co-wrote) recently wrapped in downtown LA. Next week Sullivan steps behind the camera again for DRIFTWOOD, the supernatural thriller that we first told you about here.
DRIFTWOOD stars Ricky Ullman, Talan (LAGUNA BEACH) Torriero, Russell (RULES OF ATTRACTION) Simms, MANIACS’ Lin Shaye (“She’s my good luck charm,” Sullivan says) and DEVIL’S REJECTS/HOOD OF HORROR tough guy Diamond Dallas Page. As previously noted, DRIFTWOOD, which Sullivan co-wrote with HOOD/MANIACS partner Chris Kobin, concerns a teenage attitude-adjustment facility haunted by the ghost of a kid once murdered there. “These ‘Scared Straight’ camps have sprung up all over the U.S. ever since Columbine,” Sullivan tells Fango. “They are horrible places, but a good setting for a horror film. So I pitched the idea to Dark Horse Indie, executive producer Mike [ALIEN VS. PREDATOR] Richardson’s new company, and the film got set up there in record time. They loved the script.”
Fans should expect a different kind of horror movie than Sullivan’s blood-drenched previous directorial effort. “DRIFTWOOD is more subdued, more like SESSION 9 or THE DEVIL’S BACKBONE,” he says. “It’s character-driven and not a gorefest. In the story, Ricky plays a troubled kid who gets thrown into this hellish place. His character is having a tough time adjusting to life after his rock star brother, played by Russell Simms, overdoses. Ricky has all this guilt, and his trauma connects him with the ghost at the troubled youth facility. Our hero then clashes with the evil warden [Page] and Talan, one of the guards who beats on the kids. Connor Ross, who was just on SURFACE, plays the ghost.”
The filmmakers are already garnering a great deal of attention for the hot young cast who signed up. “This time I’m getting just as many calls from Teen People as from FANGORIA to cover the film, as the actors come from all these popular TV shows on Disney Channel and MTV,” Sullivan says.
Sullivan and company will be lensing at, appropriately, an abandoned juvenile correctional facility. His old New Jersey buddy Vincent (HOOD OF HORROR) Guastini will be tackling DRIFTWOOD’s makeup FX. The director had to pinch himself after he hired another key crew member. “Bud Smith will be editing DRIFTWOOD,” Sullivan reveals. “He edited THE EXORCIST, my favorite horror film of all time. He also cut CAT PEOPLE, DARKMAN and TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A., so this is a dream come true for me to be working with him. Bud will also direct my 2nd unit, like he did for William Friedkin on a few of his films [SORCERER, C.A.T. SQUAD]. He really loves our script.”
Sullivan will introduce his DRIFTWOOD cast at Screamfest’s 2001 MANIACS red carpet premiere this Friday, October 21, at 9:30 p.m. Tickets are available here. Watch for DRIFTWOOD updates on this site soon. —Tony Timpone

Yeah, I know. I had just visited his www.imdb.com page recently & didn't see it on there, but I checked it again after reading that article & it still isn't on there. I'm wondering how true it realliy is. I'd actually be relieved if it turned out to not be true, because I seriously do NOT want to see him in a horror flick. lol

LOL Oh yeah, I completely forgot about that. Yeah, that was a definite fake made up by RUP posers. This one seems to be more official, actually, but who knows. I'm not really believing anything, though, until he either says it himself or it shows up in his filmography on www.imdb.com.

I didn't think he'd do a horror flick so soon. I thought maybe-and was really hoping-he'd work us up to it with a cute movie like Hilary Duff did in Lizzie McGuire.

Yeah. Although I don't think Hilary's done any really heavy movies yet, has she?

weellll sorta .. Raise your Voice was pretty heavy on emotions.. b/c she played a gurl that got into a Car wreck w/ her Older brother.. ( who she was really close w/ they were like best friends)... anyways.. they got hit by a drunk driver in a truck . She survived but her brother didn't. It was really sad.
