Just when you thought his career was finished, Skeet Ulrich has followed his Scream baddie's example and come back from the dead for another stab at screen success. And who better to resurrect the young Johnny Depp-a-like than his old Scream compadres, director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson. Obviously forsaking the early retirement he announced he was taking in 1998, Ulrich is leaving the safety of his country ranch to take the male lead in Williamson and Craven's typically post-modern take on the werewolf flick, Cursed. With Christina Ricci already confirmed for some lip-smacking lupine fun, the ever-so-ironic horror buddies have also lined up an impressive list of where-are-they-now luminaries to star in the bloodthirsty goings-on. Not only have they bagged Happy Day's Scott "Chachi" Baio but have even dug up 80s star Corey Feldman to run for his life under the full moon. Shooting on the tongue-in-cheek werewolf flick starts this month in Los Angeles and should arrive in all its gory glory on our screens in early 2004.
