UPDATED: It's a Sleestak from Will Ferrell's 'Land of the Lost'

Uh, who cares?


UPDATE: We now have a higher res look at the pic above right here.

Okay, so there is a big debate going on as to whether or not Speed Racer will be able to beat What Happens in Vegas this summer at the box-office. If people are questioning Speed Racer buy the dudes that made The Matrix trilogy what is going to come of an even older and more obscure TV throwback in Land of the Lost starring Will "Semi-Pro Tanked" Ferrell?

USA Today published the picture above which is the first look at the villainous Sleestaks from Land of the Lost, lizard creatures with the single horn and giant eyes from the feature film remake of the '70s TV show.

Personally I have no interest in this flick, but you may feel different. Below is the synopsis and you can click here to check out the full article at USA Today and here for a larger look at the pic above.

Space-time vortexes suck.

Will Ferrell stars as has-been scientist Dr. Rick Marshall, sucked into one and spat back through time. Way back. Now, Marshall has no weapons, few skills and questionable smarts to survive in an alternate universe full of marauding dinosaurs and fantastic creatures from beyond our world--a place of spectacular sights and super-scaled comedy known as the Land of the Lost.

Sucked alongside him for the adventure are crack-smart research assistant Holly (Anna Friel) and a redneck survivalist (Danny McBride) named Will. Chased by T. rex and stalked by painfully slow reptiles known as Sleestaks, Marshall, Will and Holly must rely on their only ally--a primate called Chaka (Jorma Taccone)--to navigate out of the hybrid dimension. Escape from this routine expedition gone awry and they're heroes. Get stuck, and they'll be permanent refugees in the Land of the Lost.

Based on the classic television series created by Sid & Marty Krofft, Land of the Lost is directed by Brad Silberling and produced by Jimmy Miller and Sid & Marty Krofft.
