ELIJAH WOOD ON HIS NEW MOVIE 9


Elijah Wood talks about his new movie 9. This new movie is a cartoon, but not what you would normally think. 9 is a very dark film. It's about after the Apocalypse, when all humans are dead because machines have taken over. It is the harsh topic of man vs. machine. But one scientist brings his little puppets in hopes that something sort of human lives on. Now that the puppets are alive they have to battle the machines. The movie is supposed to be action packed, fun to watch and make you think. Lets hope it lives up to its reputation!

SCOUT TAYLOR!


Scout Taylor-Compton, from Halloween 1 and 2, wasn't very freaked out about all the blood a dead bodies on set. Wanna know why? Because her dad was a MORTICIAN! Thats right Scout's dad dealt with dead bodies all day. Apparently she grew up in a mortuary for half of her childhood. Scout even used to help out! She would embalm the bodies. EW! So the fake dead bodies were nothing to her compared to the real ones her and her dad used to work on. Do you think that it's just a coincidence that she went in horror films?
