If there’s one remake I’m actually looking forward to, it’s Adam Gierasch’s take on the 1988 classic Night of the Demons. The original flick totally rocked, and Adam is just disturbed enough to really make this one work!

Seven Arts Distribution announced today that the movie has been slated for an October 9th, 2009 release. The remake, written by Gierasch and Jace Anderson, sports itself quite the genre pedigree as evidenced by its cast of Diora Baird, Shannon Elizabeth, Monica Keena, Bobbi Sue Luther, Jonathan Beach, Michael Copon, Tiffany Shepis, and Edward Furlong.

So what’s it about? “Angela Feld is throwing the Halloween party to end all Halloween parties at the infamous Broussard Mansion in New Orleans, where dark events transpired almost a century ago. But when the packed party gets busted by the police, Angela and her friends Maddie, Lily, Suzanne, Colin, Dex and Jason are the only ones left behind. Soon Colin and Angela make a grisly discovery in the basement and inexplicable events start to take place. With the mansion gates mysteriously locked, the seven find themselves trapped for the night…and soon they’re fighting ancient demons for their very souls.

Wow! Miss Diora Baird was the #1 searched for person/place/thing today on Yahoo!, congrats to her! It’s great to see people taking such interest in Miss Baird.

A few months back Diora Baird contributed a joke to Esquire magazine. If you have the September issue please donate a scan.

As told by Diora Baird

“You need to stop masturbating,” the doctor says. The man asks, “Why?” The doctor replies, “Because I’m trying to examine you.”

About the jokester: Twenty-five-year-old Diora Baird won our hearts when she dusted off a classic George Carlin bit about getting on a plane versus getting in a plane (punch-line spoiler: less wind). She sounded like Christopher Walken impersonating Carlin, but we laughed anyway. “Everyone’s always surprised that I’m funny,” she admits. “They say it with a question mark: ‘You’re funny?’” This month, Baird is funny as a woman on a terrible first date in My Best Friend’s Girl, and next year she’ll be funny-looking in J.J. Abrams’s Star Trek. She plays the Green Girl, an alien temptress from the original series. Chances of her tempting Spock? Slim. “I think Spock’s gay. But I’m not supposed to be outing Spock in Esquire.”

There is a set report for Night of the Demons here, on ShockTillYouDrop.com. There is also some new teaser poster art here.

The gallery has been updated with more than 600 screencaps from arguably Diora’s most known role as Bailey in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. This update includes the film and also a ton of features! I don’t know about you, but this is the movie that made me a fan! Big thanks to Alyssa once more for this great donation.

Be warned the caps feature a lot of graphic material. So people with a weak stomach, you might wanna think twice. ;)
