Yet another horror-themed comic is being adapted to movies, as told by the Hollywood Reporter, produced by the writers of the Beetlejuice sequel:
But the saddest part is realizing that depending how the pendulum swings, this could sadly become a blockbuster like Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street during the 1980s. If that happens, it just confirms what continues to go wrong with both comics and movies.
The Ice Cream Man is ready to ring you up a scoop of suffering.Suffering is exactly what this amounts to. This seems like all they can possibly think of in Tinseltown now, and the way these news sources turn these projects into such a big deal is head-shaking. It's enough to wonder if companies like Image have any humor titles to offer in contrast to this, or if Hollywood has any interest in seriously adapting them.
Sony genre label Screen Gems has acquired film rights to the horror anthology comic book that was written and created by W. Maxwell Prince.
Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, the creators of the smash hit Wednesday series and writers of the new Beetlejuice movie, are on board to produce the adaptation via their Sony-based Millar Gough Ink. The company’s Aaron Schmidt is also producing.
Ice Cream Man serves up a range of horror flavors and genres, all threaded by the weaver of these tales, the titular character, who could be friend or foe, an angel or a devil. Artists Martin Morazzo and Chris O’Halloran joined Prince on the book.
But the saddest part is realizing that depending how the pendulum swings, this could sadly become a blockbuster like Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street during the 1980s. If that happens, it just confirms what continues to go wrong with both comics and movies.
