The MPAA has finally given a viewer rating for Laura's movie "The Burrowers" sadly though, it's been given an 'R' rating in America, restricting those who may see it.

Lionsgate who recently saw a rough cut of the film ae still yet to announce a release date or promotional material.

"The Burrowers" was one of the more well received horror films at this years Cannes. A review from Fangoria.net - A film that had been completed just in time for Cannes was J.T. Petty’s THE BURROWERS, best described as THE SEARCHERS meets TREMORS. After a Dakota family is brutally murdered in their 1879 home, a group of ranchers and infantrymen embark on a crusade to find the killers, which they think are a renegade American Indian tribe. The truth is far worse: Carnivorous creatures hiding beneath the High Plains surface and immobilize their prey with saliva that turns flesh mushy for easy eating. Unusual in its sepia-infused Old West setting and going for a slow burn as it heads toward an ethnic-cleansing message, THE BURROWERS keeps its XTRO-style monsters offscreen for a tad too long. But Petty’s SOFT FOR DIGGING-esque cowboy creepiness evokes a strange and weirdly affecting atmosphere.

The Feb 2008 issue of FIRST magazine featured an interview with Laura about how she keeps the peace in her hectic home. The interview came with a stunning photograph taken by Larsen & Talbert. The interview is below, the picture, in the gallery. Enjoy!

I do apologize about the delay, but after some technical difficulties, LauraLeighton.net is now back and ready to move on!

There hasn't been much news to date Laura wise. The Burrowers is still awaiting a release date through Lionsgate, and there has been little news about pilot season since the writers strike ended.

Came across a nice little interview with Laura and the Fame and Fortune website. You can read it here
