We’ve reached the end of another week – thank god! – which means it’s time to once again take a look at the coolest, weirdest and/or most awesome images that I’ve stumbled across on social media this past week. So let’s get right to it, shall we?! It’s been a long time since I’ve laughed

Mother’s Day: A Remake That’s Just Begging for More Attention

Exactly two years ago, on this very date, Darren Lynn Bousman’s remake of the 1980 Troma film Mother’s Day was released on home video. And over the course of those past two years, I’ve heard very little discussion about the film, within the horror community. It’s never celebrated as being one of the best remakes

Taking a Trip: Beyond the Black Rainbow 2010

I must have had hundreds of conversations over the years about movies and stuff related to movies and one thing I notice a lot is that many people I’ve met ‘Need’ something specific from their movie watching experiences.

Yesterday, the fine folks over at Scream Factory unveiled the cover art for their upcoming Blu-ray release of 1988’s Pumpkinhead, which marks the very first time the late Stan Winston’s directorial debut has ever made its way onto the high-def format.

The River — Good, Stupid Fun

The River television series, which is yet another shaky, found-footage venture from the Paranormal Activity guys, was surprisingly fun. I would chalk this up to being a guilty pleasure because the writing and dialogue were painfully stupid. From characters that don’t understand a word of Spanish, to being able to speak it fluently after a

A Warning About Full Moon’s ‘Tourist Trap’ Blu-ray

On the surface, it’s kind of hard to dislike Charles Band, as he seems like a nice enough guy, and he’s made some pretty noteworthy contributions to the genre. In addition to being the man behind Empire Pictures and Wizard Video, Band is of course also the founder of Full Moon; a production/distribution company that’s

Defender of the Corkscrew: My Q&A with Halloween H20’s Adam Hann-Byrd

This August Halloween H20 will be 16 years old … Where the hell does the time go!? I remember the summer of that year fondly. At the time I was working in a large department store in my home town of Plymouth. The wages were terrible (£3.60 per hour!), we had to get there at
