Preview of Horror Shorts Movie Leaked, Hot Dog Vendors Threaten to Strike

Due to unplanned circumstances, Flip Brothers Studios has pushed its two upcoming movies each back a week. UWC: Bloodbath is advertised as "Bigger, Better, Bloodier." The second of Mr. Grell's wrestling events, the studio is keeping tight-lipped about the card.

"We'll be advertising it shortly" a studio representative stated. "We don't want to blow the surprises too soon."

The second movie to be set back a week is Horror Days, a continuation of horror short movies and an HTG TV series. On slate this time so far is a film based on a franchise not owned by the producing Ritchie Steven. As of this writing, RS has not heard back from the owner of the property to make sure that he can release the story. The other half of Horror Days is titled Daydream, a Lonely Island story from producer Marlowe.

"More shorts are invited to join" explained an FB staffer. "Please let us know if you want in on the fun."

Horror Days is slated for October 2. Also set for the month is PJ Flip's Ash vs. The Wizard of Oz and Lucian's XCC 4: Women on Top.

After a week of light bidding, the Warcraft franchise has fallen into the hands of Miracle Pictures. Encompassing games, books and other varied media, the property was recently released by producer Aaron Rowland. Aaron is in semi-retirement on an undisclosed tropical island, so decided to get Warcraft into the hands of someone who will provide use for it.

Currently valued at 75 million dollars, Lucian Carter declared that Warcraft could be worth as much as 300 million. Miracle Pictures grabbed it for 275 million.

"It seems like an exciting opportunity," remarked Miracle Pictures chief Marlowe. "In fact, the world of Warcraft (pardon the pun) is big enough that I think multiple films can be based upon it."

Marlowe also informed this reporter (ha?) that he has had multiple requests on purchasing the product. The MP head insists that it is not for sale.

"Anyone who wants to pen something for Warcraft is invited to get in touch with me."

Actress Denies Being a Witch, But Enjoys Great Taste of Diet Dr. Pepper

Celebrities are victims of rumors on a regular basis. Beauty Charlize Theron is no exception.

"She's a witch! I can prove it!"

Such was the exclamation of an anonymous visitor to the Happening offices this week. He wished to remain unnamed in fear of reprisal from the Oscar-winning actress.

"I'm happily married, really!" he explained. "But every time I see Miss Theron, I become more and more enamored with her. It's a love spell, I tell you!"

When asked why the actress would cast such a spell, the accuser was quick with a response.

"So we'll see her movies over and over! I remember seeing Escaping Dead Island a couple years ago. I must have seen it a hundred times! Now she's coming out in another film. I'll grow broke at this rate and my wife will leave me!"

The documentary XCC: In For a Penny will open on June 26th. Theron has been slated at the narrator of the film. Martial artist Steven Seagal also appears doing color commentary.

"Someone has to help me! I bet she's in a coven somewhere. Yeah, that's got to be it!" cried the distressed visitor.

XCC: In For a Penny, the second in a series of films covering the mixed martial arts franchise, was written by Ship of Fooles and directed by Steve James.

Britney Spears is not “secretly planning a wedding” with HTG mega-producer and star Chris Harmer, despite rumors floating around the city. A source close to the pop star exclusively told Happening that the story is untrue.

According to the gossip, “They talk about getting married all the time.” The rumor alleges Spears has “already started working on the details of her big day,” and claims “the guest list will be limited to close friends and family, plus anyone who positively supported any of Harmer's projects."

“She wants something simple, but memorable, nothing too over-the-top,” a supposed source claims. And that’s not all. The rumors further allege that Spears and Harmer “had planned to marry after her Las Vegas residency ends in December and before the release of 'I Am Harmer 2.'

Don’t go buying a gift just yet. Again, there is no wedding in the works.

"Isn't Chris already married?" pondered a visitor to the Happening offices.

Chris Harmer is next set to star in Monty Python's Harmergedon, a fantasy parody from Miracle Pictures. A release date has not been set.

Once a source of movie magic, actor Eddie Murphy's luck in HTG Hollywood has been non-existent. In fact, the star of The Nutty Professor has yet to be hired in more than 10 years of the city's existence.

"I thought when Miracle Pictures bought the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, poor ol' Eddie would get some work," stated a local movie fan. "But, in usual fashion, the guy who runs that company is taking his time with getting the project done. Also, I hear that Eddie's Axel Foley isn't even going to be the primary star of the show. It'll be some younger guy! Eddie just can't get a break, huh?"

Fortune for Murphy continued to diminish when he arrived at the casting call for Matthew Atwood's Space Travel on a Budget. Eager to get hired, Murphy was disappointed to discover that the agents had meant to call the next person on their alphabetical list of talent... Bill Murray.

"You should have seen his face," a worker at the meeting witnessed. "He wanted to try out anyway, but they said no. He cried out that he was Pluto Nash, but that didn't impress anyone. Pity. I liked that movie. Why won't people hire Eddie?"

According to those on hand, Bill Murray did nail the part for Space Travel on a Budget. He will star as Demitri, an apparently lazy and dumb engineer who is set to guide a young man to the stars.

Others set to star include Zooey Deschanel, Adrien Brody, Noomi Rapace and Kodi Smit-McPhee. The comedy has Sofia Coppola as director. Space Travel on a Budget, a Miracle Pictures release of a Slacker Mafia Films production, opens on June 12.

No, Kate Upton does not appear in it.
