Katie Cassidy tweeted a picture recently from the set of the new horror flick The Scribbler in character as Suki, and we have it right here next to an image of the original graphic novel character. Cassidy cut her hair and added piercings for the role. God love her!
This comes after The CW announced they would be picking up "Arrow" based on the DC comic book series Green Arrow, in which Cassidy stars as Dinah Lance, who later becomes Black Canary.
In other Scribbler news, Richard Riehle (Office Space), Brad Culver (Growth), Luke Barnett (Sedona) and an English bulldog named Sir Hollywood have all been seen on set playing supporting roles. This adds to an already impressive ensemble cast that includes Cassidy, Michelle Trachenberg ("Buffy"), Garret Dillahunt (No Country for Old Men), Gina Gershon (Showgirls), Michael Imperioli ("The Sopranos"), Eliza Dushku ("Dollhouse"), Billy Campbell ("The Killing"), Kunal Nayyar ("Big...

SXSW 2012 film review
complete coverage of SXSW Film 2012
Extracted
Director & Screenwriter: Nir Paniry
A scientist is trapped in the memories of a criminal and must solve a crime in order to get back home to his family.
Cast: Sasha Roiz, Dominic Bogart, Jenny Mollen, Nick Jameson, Brad Culver
(World Premiere)
Film Synopsis (from SXSW.com)
Who’S It For?: Fans who are perfectly satisfied by science fiction television shows.
Overall
Extracted has a concept that is perfectly sexy for the lower standards of a cable TV series. With its simple story and lack of magnetic tension, it’s a reminder of the lower attention span asked for by most TV shows compared to any theatrical experience. Most TV shows (especially the ones that look like Extracted) feel like they’re meant to amuse viewers in-between commercial breaks. Viewers can move about their rooms while full episodes play out.

The 2012 South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Conference and Festival runs March 9–17 in Austin, Texas, and now the full film program lineup has been announced. From a first glance at the list, it's pretty light on horror, but there are a few standouts.
In addition to the world premiere of Lionsgate’s The Cabin in the Woods as the Opening Night Film, which we already knew, here are the horror (and a few horror-ish or just very interesting sounding) highlights:
Killer Joe - Us Premiere
Director: William Friedkin | Screenwriter: Tracy Letts
Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Gina Gershon, Juno Temple, Thomas Haden Church
A garish, Southwestern tale - a violent black comedy about a desperate Texas debtor (Hirsch) who plots to kill his mother with help of his family (Haden Church, Gershon). They hire a crazy Dallas cop who moonlights as a contract killer (McConaughey) to do the job, but Killer Joe...

Other highlights include The Hunter, Killer Joe, The Babymakers, frankie goes boom, God Bless America, The Imposter, The Raid, Bernie and Casa de mi Padre just to name a few. After the jump, read descriptions of all the films that have been announced so far. Before I copy and paste the rest of the list, a few minor notes.
