Netflix, which started as a simple “DVD delivery to your home” service and has grown to delivering movies straight to computer and Xbox is now about to tackle the world of web content. And they are doing it with a bang. Literally. To Corey Feldman’s head.
Feldman announced yesterday on his blog that not only will he be reprising his role as Edgar Frog in Lost Boys 3: The Thirst…he’s also going to be starring in Netflix’s first ever web series, Splatter. Not only that, he’s teaming up with legendary directors Joe Dante and Roger Corman to do it.
Says Feldman: “This will mark the 3rd project I have done with Joe (Dante), the first since 1989’s The Burbs. It came as a shock to me when I received a call from Roger Corman’s (Little shop of Horrors, Rock n Roll High School, Pirannah and hundreds more) office telling me that they were producing a new project that Joe would be directing and they both wanted me to head up the cast as the lead character. Now this will prove to be my 4th project together with Roger, previously we have done Rock and Roll High School Forever, Stepmonster, and Born Bad. Apparently this will be Joe’s 7th project with Roger. So the point is we have all worked together individually, but we have never teamed up together.”
