About David Gordon Green and Horror Movies...

Now that it has been commented online that David Gordon Green will be directing "Splatter Sisters", you might also want to know that among his filmography is the remake of none other than Dario Argento's "Suspiria", catalogued as one of the scariest movies of all times.

You might recall the hit "Pineapple Express", a completely different genre, which was also directed by Gordon Green. The remake of the Italian horror film will be produced along with Natalie Portman, who will play the leading role and is listed as a producer.

Curiously, Asia Argento, the daughter of Dario Argento has participated with Marilyn Manson a couple of times, directing the highly controversial video of 2003, (s) AINT, which was banned in some countries like the US. Manson also starred with Argento in "The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things" from 2004 in a smaller role which wasn't that distant from the approach of "Splatter Sisters".
