Rise

Lucy Liu, who looks stunning in the photo, stars in an upcoming vampire movie, Rise, that actually sound good (I refuse to get too excited after so many disappointments).

“We’re walking around a lot of potential landmines - we don’t want to go into an Anne Rice Gothic/romantic terrain, or an UNDERWORLD/Ridley Scott sort of thing,” he added. “I’m not knocking those movies, because they’ve all been done very well, but we’re trying to do something that’s more like a modern-day noir. It’s very stylized, because it’s horror - all the colors are very saturated. We’re keeping away from the usual look you see in these movies, which is that steely-grey, industrial sort of thing”, the director concluded. Lucy Liu will play reporter Sadie Blake, who discovers she's no longer among the living, as she wakes up in a morgue. Sadie refuses to join the ranks of the undead, seeking revenge against the vampires responsible for putting her there. She decides to hunt them down one by one, with the help of a troubled police detective (Chiklis) who lost a daughter to the same group.

I could do without Marilyn Manson in the movie. His 15-minutes expired long ago. Hopefully he'll be staked early.
