New Asylum Title Announced (Kinda)

So, in this post over on The Asylum site, producer/writer Paul Bales gives us a look at Asylum coverage from around the world, including this list of the so-called "Worst of Cannes" - the "worst" projects offered at the prestigious festival - on which a project they "haven't even made" made an appearance. And the title of that project? Brace yourself:

NAZIS AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH

Holy fucking shit, right?! If that's not the greatest title/premise for a movie, I don't know what is.

Furthermore, when I expressed my unbridled elation for such a project on The Asylum's comments board, Paul Bales himself replied to my reply saying not only is the project legit, but it springs from his very pen, the same pen that wrought Legion of the Dead, 2010 Moby Dick, Sherlock Holmes, MegaFault and 100 Million BC, among others.

No word what the plot may be, other than a brief mention of "mutant zombie Nazis threaten[ing] to overrun the world from their secret underground cavern," which could only be a reporter's speculation, but honestly, with a title as informative as that, as long as all the major elements are in play - Nazis, a secret world within the world, some kind of drill-car - this film will be one of the greatest things B-cinema ever conjured. Nazis. At the center of the Earth. C'mon, people, get excited!

Dig This Video with The Asylum at Cannes!

As all movie buffs are aware, Cannes 2011 is wrapping up, and you better believe the fine folks of The Asylum were there pitching the goods. A media outlet called Digital Spy sat down with two of the three head honchos - producers David Rimawi and Paul Bales - for a talk on all things Asylum. Besides getting a quick glimpse at the (unreleased) posters for Born Bad and Dragon Crusaders (and also posters for those somewhat dubious alleged SyFy projects Bigfoot and Zombie Apocalypse), the interview really gives one a sense of how much fun these guys have, and how much enthusiasm they have for the films they make. It's awesome. Check out the interview right here.
