Ick
According to Jeff Sneider’s The Insneider, Brandon Routh, Mena Suvari and Malina Weissman have wrapped filming on Ick, a horror film heavily inspired by Chuck Russell’s 1988 remake of The Blob from director Joseph Kahn (Detention, Power/Rangers). The story is said to concern “a dark, mysterious, and ‘innocuous’ alien substance that has slowly taken root in the world. Routh will play Hank, a failed football star-turned-high school science teacher who has spent years blaming the Ick for his limp. When the Ick eventually evolves and begins to attack, Hank must decide whether to save the life of a student who he suspects may be his daughter, or save the lives of all the other students at risk.”

He comes up with all of the ‘skadooshes,’ all the ‘sha-sha-booeys’ and stuff. We could watch him forever. That said, we have made the most epic chapter of this franchise here.
