Not too long ago Variety got the horror community in a frenzy by announcing that George A. Romero would be doing a remake of Dario Argento’s Deep Red.
Last week Romero told Fangoria that there “is no deal” locked for him to direct. Furthermore, he won’t do it “if Dario doesn’t approve.” Argento then announced to an audience at the Los Angeles Weekend of Horrors that the Deep Red remake is “not true”.
So there you have it. Deep Red is dead.
