Do you remember the Garbage Pail Kids? If you were born in the late 70's or early 80's you probably do. They were collector cards created in 1985 as a parody to the Cabbage Patch Kids, but they took off. They even had a movie in 1987. Now, as horrible as that movie was I loved it. I haven't seen it in probably more than a decade, but the memory remains. Now, there is talk that Michael Eisner's company will take on a new Garbage Pail Kids movie which will be directed by PES who is an award winning director of short films like Fresh Guacamole.
Deadline
Michael Eisner’s The Tornante Company will finance and produce the development of a feature film based on Garbage Pail Kids, the trading card line published by Topps. Eisner bought the card company in 2007 and this is his first feature spinoff project.
It's funny that Michael Eisner, formerly of Disney, is bringing these sick little bastards back to life. I'm not too sure about PES, but I've seen Fresh Guacamole and if that's any indication of his talents it looks like he can visually meet the challenge of The Garbage Pail Kids.
What do you guys think of another Garbage Pail Kids movie?
