Charming badass nurse Sarah Polley from that sorry little Dawn of the Dead remake is looking to get some new horror action on with Splice. Splice features two young scientists out to make their mark by illegal and unethical experiments into combining human and animal DNA. Of course, you don’t have to be a serious horror buff to know what will happen following that ridiculous combination, but it helps. For the neophytes in the crowd I’ll go ahead and explain. All sorts of nastiness will happen, lots of people will get torn to teeny little bloody chunks and, only possibly, the half-human animal-thing will be killed in a loud and grotesque fashion as the climax of the film.

There’s also an outside possibility said half-human animal-thing will survive and slink off into hiding to create a sequel possibility.

Okay, sure, we’ve all seen it before, but with a cast list featuring names like Sarah Polley, and of course the usually-solid Adrien Brody, it might well come off solidly enough to be worth watching.

And until then, we’ve got Dead series trivia on Kwanzoo just waiting for you to catch up.
