You're welcome. Stick around for more Halloween Monday Buzz Break!

• Universal's new would-be Wolfman reboot has begun filming, but will be going straight to DVD/Blu-ray just in time for Halloween 2012. Here's the synopsis:

A monstrous creature terrorizes a 19th C European village by moonlight and a young man struggles to protect his loved ones from an unspeakable scourge in Untitled Werewolf Thriller, Universal Studios' all-new addition to its time-honored legacy of supernatural thrillers. During his studies with the local doctor (Stephen Rea), Daniel (Guy Wilson) witnesses the horrific consequences of werewolf attacks. Watching as the beast's fearsome reputation draws bounty hunters, thrill seekers and charlatans to the tiny town, Daniel dreams of destroying the ruthless predator. So when a mysterious stranger (Ed Quinn) and his team of skilled werewolf hunters (Stephen Bauer, Adam Croasdell) arrive to pursue the monster, he offers to join them, despite his mother's (Nia Peeples) protests. But it soon becomes clear that this creature is stronger, smarter and more dangerous than anything they have faced before. As casualties mount and villagers see their neighbors transformed into ravening monsters, the townsfolk take up arms against each other to find the true identity of the werewolf. Amid the hysteria, Daniel begins to suspect he's closer to his target than he ever dreamed.

    Remember that energy is "catchy" - your children's hysteria
    and loud screeches can cause your adrenalin to run and then you'll be screeching as well.
    This creates increased tension and division within the dome,
    where the alcoholic, pill-popping Bruce (who is keeping a creepy holographic live journal) is becoming
    even stranger'but, honestly, who brings a man named "Bruce" into space, anyway.
