After years of remakes that make you go “…but *why*?” here’s one that actually, for some reason, appeals to me:

Disney Planning Live-Action Film Based on NIGHT ON BALD MOUNTAIN

Not much info other than it’s being scripted by the same folks what done brung us “Dracula Untold Meh.” Still, the source material was pure awesomeness, and the idea of it somehow getting some sort of actual plot and being realized in modern technical glory gives me the giggities. Of course, Disney previously released “Sorcerers Apprentice,” which didn’t exactly wow the world, so who knows. And of course there was “Malificent,” which turned a properly evil character sympathetic. So long as the writers remember that the demon Chernabog is *supposed* to be evil and downright terrifying, basically a bignormous Balrog, the movie has a chance.
