Bite-sized Horror
Curse of Chucky
I went into watching Curse of Chucky with very few expectations and came out quite delighted. The movie is full of great fun and lots of nods to fans of the original trilogy with one really special treat. I won’t spoil anything (if you somehow haven’t seen it yet), but one of my only gripes …
Flowers in the Attic (TV Movie)
Just watched the Lifetime adaptation of the book Flowers in the Attic. While I did enjoy it and it’s apparently much closer to the book than the 1987 movie, I enjoyed the theatrical movie endlessly more and much more deeply.
Graveyard Shift
A very underrated Stephen King adaptation with low ratings and bad reviews across the board, but I absolutely love it.
Once Bitten
Once Bitten (1985) is a little gem of an 80s pop culture film, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer of the 80s and just an all around fun movie. Probably more popular in later years because of Jim Carrey‘s later success, this film originally being one of his first movie roles, five years before In Living …
Definitive Friday the 13th Doc Coming
We’re talking 7+ hours of an in-depth look at the entire Friday the 13th franchise. Based on the book of the same name, Crystal Lake Memories likely dives into additional areas than the book did. I’m excited to get my hands on this Blu-ray exclusive documentary, being a huge (possibly obsessed) fan of Friday the …
Mob of the Dead
UPDATE — Character bios: UPDATE — And here’s the official trailer: UPDATE — A video that takes a much closer look at “Mob of the Dead” was released on Xbox Live, but not officially online yet. A few fans recorded it and put it up on YouTube, naturally. Have a look: Very exciting news, we’re …
Cool Halloween Inventions
I was only recently introduced to Kickstarter, a social platform that helps ideas get off the ground both in the “spread the word” sense and the “funding to put it into production” sense. What surprised me, is all the fun Halloween and horror themed ideas. For example, the zombie mugs: Here are a few others …
New Lords of Salem Trailer and Official Release Date
Finally, after many delays we have an official theatrical release date as well as a new trailer to tide us over. Also, the official website is now live. I haven’t been this excited for a movie to come out in a long time, and we’ll finally get to see it Friday, April 19th, 2013. If …
Hunting Bruce (Shark from JAWS)
NPR, back in 2010, posted a wonderfully nostalgic article about whatever happened to the mechanical shark(s) from the original JAWS film? I have a minor obsession with the whole thing myself. So, what I’ve been continuing to wonder, is whatever happened to the sharks from parts 2, 3, and 4 as well? If anyone has …
