The Books of Blood were the first thing I read by Clive Barker, and I fell in love. I'm happy to see they are getting some treatment ala Midnight Meat Train which is directed by Ryuhei Kitamura who did the gangster/samurai/zombie flick Versus. Another plus is the ever vicious Vinnie Jones of Snatch fame (and about Kevin Bacon other films) will be playing the serial killer, rawsome! The release date will be sometime in 2008.

"When his latest body of work – provocative, nighttime studies of the city and its inhabitants - earns struggling photographer Leon Kaufman (Bradley Cooper) interest from a prominent art gallerist (Brooke Shields), she propels him to get grittier and show the darker side of humanity for his upcoming debut at her downtown art space.


Believing he’s finally on track for success, Leon’s obsessive pursuit of dark subject matter leads him into the path of a serial killer, Mahogany (Vinnie Jones), the subway murderer who stalks late-night commuters - ultimately butchering them in the most gruesome ways imaginable.

With his concerned girlfriend Maya (Leslie Bibb) fearing for his life, Leon’s relentless fascination with Mahogany lures him further and further into the bowels of the subways and ultimately into an abyss of pure evil - inadvertently pulling Maya right along with him."
