SciFi Wire brings more news of the ever-shittier-sounding The Dark Is Rising film adaptation, aka The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising: For some reason it’s now simply called The Seeker. You can check out director David L. Cunningham’s explanations for some of the major changes made to the book for the movie, if you’re into that sort of thing. Believe it or not this movie comes out this Friday; I love the books so much that I’ll probably see it, even though I really oughta know better.
