I don't know how many of you know this.... but the internet news business is essentially a sham. Especially movie news. What Fangoria received was a press release which they rewrote and tried to make their own. Bloody-Disgusting/Dread Central and I'm sure a gazillion other sites will be posting their (poor) rewrite of it online soon. Below is the original press release as received it in my inbox earlier today.
I've also uploaded the Angus Scrimm photo that came with it. I'm not uploading any of the others because Angus isn't in them.

PHANTASM cast members reunite for SATAN HATES YOU!
Reggie Bannister is the latest genre name added to the cast list for
SATAN HATES YOU, following his PHANTASM series co-star Angus Scrimm.
This is the first film to feature both actors since 1998's PHANTASM
IV: OBLIVION.
SATAN HATES YOU is the latest feature film from producer Larry
Fessenden's Glass Eye Pix and writer/director James Felix McKenney's
MonsterPants Movies. The film has been in the process of being shot
in small segments since 2005 while McKenney and company worked on
other projects, including the critically acclaimed AUTOMATONS. The
final shoot, which makes up the bulk of SATAN HATES YOU, will be
completed in June of 2008.
Inspired by films from the golden age of religious "scare" cinema
such as A THIEF IN THE NIGHT (1972), IF FOOTMEN TIRE YOU, WHAT WILL
HORSES DO? (1971) and STALKED (1969), SATAN HATES YOU is a graphic
horror film that tells the stories of two individuals and their
personal struggles with the ultimate horror villain -- Lucifer
himself. The film's producers are in the process of assembling a
large ensemble cast, mixing well-known genre names with MonsterPants
regulars.
"Don Coscarelli's PHANTASM is one of my favorite films. It's the
movie that introduced me to the work of Angus Scrimm, who we have
used in three films so far. This has been such a wonderful working
experience, that I figured I'd push my luck and see if we could
borrow another talent from the Coscarelli pool. Reggie has such a
unique screen presence and personality, that it was easy writing for
him. I don't think his fans will be disappointed." says McKenney.
He continues: "SATAN HATES YOU is very different film type of film
compared to our earlier efforts. Despite the Christian morality play
themes in the movie, it's the closest thing to a straightforward
horror film that I've done so far. I've abandoned my usual slow-as-
molasses pacing in favor of a faster-moving film filled with sex,
drugs, violence, gore and Satan!"
