| JIM CARREY SET FOR 'CHRISTMAS CAROL' |
 Jim Carrey will play Ebenezer Scrooge plus the three ghosts that haunt him in “A Christmas Carol,” an adaptation of the Charles Dickens tale that Robert Zemeckis wrote and will direct for Walt Disney Pictures.
Zemeckis will shoot the film using “performance capture/Disney digital 3-D” animation, a continuing evolution of techniques he introduced in “Polar Express” and continues with "Beowulf".
“A Christmas Carol” will feature a touch of live action and computer graphics, the latter of which ImageMovers employed in “Monster House.”
The technology provides a playground for the chameleon-like Carrey, who will act the character of Scrooge through the periods of his life, as well as the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. Zemeckis wrote the script specifically with Carrey in mind, and the actor said yes straight away.

| ZOMBIE PREPARING ‘HALLOWEEN’ SEQUEL |
 Dimension Films and writer-director Rob Zombie are teaming for a second helping of Halloween madness this October, according to Daily Variety. Zombie will write and direct H2, the sequel to his 2007 reinvention of the John Carpenter horror classic.
The new film picks up right as the first remake ended, following the aftermath of Michael Myers' murderous rampage through the eyes of the sister he hunted.
Zombie said it won't resemble the original second installment, as the 'House of 1000 Corpses' helmer continues to take the franchise in different directions.
Zombie took Carpenter's original and stamped it with an original storyline that treated Myers as a clinical psychopath. The film grossed $60 million domestically in 2007.
