Bog Bodies (2008)

Oh dearie me..

New Irish horror film planned for release sometime this year called Bog Bodies starring Vinnie Jones, and with a synopsis as follows:

When a 'bog body' a 2000 year old murder victim preserved in a peat bog is disturbed by developers in rural Ireland, an archaeologist, a hunter and their helpers face the task of sending him back where he came from.

Sounds absolutely terrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-ific! :rolleyes:

I'm sure this can be nothing but a quality production. Also,

from the movie poster, we can already see what happens to Vinnie Jones. Should movie posters have spoiler tags too?

That's a winning tagline though:

He's had 2000 years to get grumpy

Hope it reaches the high standards of other Irish horror productions such as Shrooms, Boy Eats Girl, and Dead Bodies.

What the Irish Film industry needs right now is another crap horror movie made by people who don't even like the genre. Seem to be ideal territory for filmmakers who have nothing to say and can only copy others. They can't even make a "real" horror movie but have to add in stupid comedy elements.
Let's have the ultimate bad Irish horror movie - "Cannibal Leprechauns" starring Deirdre O'Kane and Vinne Jones directed by Paddy Breathnach.

Irish horror has a lot of potential in my opinion. Honestly, we've plenty of talented people, but it's just a pity that the only horrors to come out of Ireland are lame slashers (Shrooms) or lame zombie flicks (Dead Meat), and most of them really just played for laughs, it's like a few mates just had a go at it for the craic. I'd like to see someone making a serious attempt at it; an Irish ghost story could be fantastic, something like The Changeling.

That's the problem - most Irish horror film producers would not have seen or even heard of that movie.
