Ali Lohan of E!’s Living Lohan wants to destroy her nonexistent career by starring in the remake of the 1986 motion picture Troll (the original starred Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Sonny Bono). “How fitting that she already kinda looks like one? Yeah yeah, we’re more evil than the creatures she’ll fight in the flick, we know,” Kate Spencer of VH1.com jokes.
Apparently the director of Troll is already gushing about her acting capabilities, “The camera adores her. She’s a really good actress…I am personally going to fight for her.” Ali has auditioned to play the role of Eunice St. Clair who aids a boy named Harry Potter, Jr. (no relation) fight an evil troll. I know, it just gets weirder and weirder. D-List jests that one of the Olsen twins should be cast as the evil troll.
I hope we get to see Ali’s audition, rehearsals, shoots, and any other drama that could involve Long Island’s resident troll, Dina Lohan, acting like a crazed stage mother.

Looks like a Dead Zone movie is possible. Anthony Michael Hall, who starred in the USA network sci-fi show, told SCI-FI wire that he’d be interested in doing a Dead Zone motion picture. Hall, who played psychic Johnny Smith for the show’s six-season run, reminds everyone that he’s not optimistic a Dead Zone movie will be made. “I don’t think we had the size of a cult following that, let’s say, The X-Files did. You look at Sex and the City or The X-Files, these movies were done long after the shows pumped out their last episodes,” states the actor. Also, The Dead Zone having a previous incarnation as a feature film might preclude any new attempts. (In the film, which was released in 1983, Christopher Walken starred as Johnny Smith.)
Whatever the case might be with the possible motion picture, Anthony Michael Hall remains grateful about the chance to star in The Dead Zone. “I would certainly be open to the potential for [a reunion feature]. I would never turn my back on what [the show’s late producer] Michael Piller did for me. He gave me this astonishing opportunity. When I look back at [my] career, I view him and John Hughes as almost guardian angels of my career,” Hall states.
