This is a dream pairing of directors for a horror movie. God knows what kind of dark depraved masterpiece this has the chance of becoming.

Check out the link.

Hmm. I love Lynch, but not Herzog. I found Grizzly Man to be morally questionable. It made me wonder if there was a kernel of validity in Kinski's spittle-flecked accusations that Herzog cared more about film than the lives of other creatures.

"I found Grizzly Man to be morally questionable."

How so? I'm familiar with the horrible incident, but haven't seen the film....

He used an obviously mentally-unstable man to represent the side of those who hold views that oppose his own (i.e., that nature is red in tooth nnd claw). I suppose he and Terrence Malick are antipodal on this one.

I watched The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser the other night, and I loved it.

The real life story behind the film is equally as bizarre. It's been a story that has fascinated me for years.

Ah. Having lived in the AK wilderness for many years, I don't need Herzog to convince me that playing with wild animals = playing with fire.

Werner Herzog: "I always wanted to make a horror film, but not with bloody axes and chain-saws. An anonymous fear should rather creep up at you."

Uuuumm...I'm quite sure you did, Werner, some thirty years ago. Remember Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht?

This pairing has potential, but I don't know if I'd say I'm "excited" by it. I admire the work of both men (Lynch moreso than Herzog) but I'm also wondering if this "horror movie" will end up being some tedious five-hour art-house film.
