The Buzz: The Hack/ Slash and Suicide Squad Movies

Aiight, cuzzo. Its been announced that Rogue Pictures is making a live action movie based on the Hack/ Slash comic book. The comic involves a girl named Cassie Hack who hunts down and kills monsters called "slashers" with the help of her gas mask wearing partner Vlad. Vlad's face is deformed so he wears a gas mask and his choice of weapons are two meat cleavers. This sounds outta control! Here's more on the story [Hack/Slash Story]. Writer, Justin Marks (Heman, Voltron), and director, Fredrick Bond, will be working on this film.




It was also reported that Warner Bros. is developing a live action adaptation of the comi
c book The Suicide Squad. The comic book is about a government group of supervillains that is sent of various suicide missions. Often during their missions, members would die and it was never clear which team members would survive so it added to the suspense of the story. One thing this story does is focus on the villains instead of the heroes so it should be pretty cool if well executed. Here's some more info on the story [Suicide Squad Story]. This also being written by Justin Marks. I'm not fimiliar with these comic books but from the sounds of their plots, I'm curious to see how they turn out. What do you guys think?
