Rezurrection: A Bitter Sweet Last Map Pack for Black Ops

I’m definitely excited that this map pack is coming. However, it is a little bitter sweet that it took so long and happened this way. The pack includes 4 maps that were originally released when Black Ops first came out and 1 new map. Those maps were remakes of the original 4 maps from World

Freddy Krueger Coming to Mortal Kombat

Freddy Krueger (from A Nightmare on Elm Street) is coming as a DLC (Downloadable Content) playable character for the latest Mortal Kombat video game. Take a look: I’m a bit disappointed they decided to go with the 2010 remake look for Freddy instead of the classic, although the audio tracks and fatalities appear to be

Shangri-La: New Zombies Map

Call of Duty: Zombies has quickly become one of my all-time favorite games to play. Check out the trailer for “Shangri-La”, which is part of the new map pack: Annihilation, which comes out June 28th, 2011:

Short Films That Inspire Me

Kitchen Sink Full version here. MORE I originally saw these two short films over ten years ago on Exposure and they’ve stuck with me ever since.

Night Gallery

The stories, sometimes full of the ghoulishness and macabre, sometimes a moral tale with a lesson to be held, and sometimes the most beautiful, thought and emotion inspiring stories. Severely underrated, Night Gallery is the last work of influential writer Rod Serling. Like Twilight Zone before it, Night Gallery was way ahead of its time.

[Haunted Houses and Rides]

Dracula’s Castle and Terroride of Lagoon Park

These two rides are some of my fondest childhood memories. There’s something incredible about old Halloween rides — the smell, the atmosphere. Something about how cheesy they are actually makes them all the more creepy. At a place called Lagoon Park that I visited as a child, I liked the other rides of course, but

100 Hidden Gems of Horror

Some of these films took me a long time to track down as they were only faint childhood memories. For example: Lady in White and Devonsville Terror made a huge impression on me as a child that lasted over the years. But, without the titles of the film, it took me some time to add

Halloween Music to Drive Deep in the Woods To

I’ve got a chance to listen to the new album Strange Tales for Late at Night by Casey Redmond. Smooth rockabilly with throwback to great songs like Purple People Eater.   If you’d like to pick up the album or learn more about Casey Redmond head over to: http://caseyredmond.weebly.com/.

Fright Night Remake

The original Fright Night was fucking awesome, but admittedly, the remake looks pretty cool too (although much different from the original as remakes should be): At first, I was thinking Colin Farrell as a baddie, nah? But, remember a time when people were thinking: “Heath Ledger as The Joker? Not going to work.” And then

Zombies: Coolest Fucking Thing Ever

I think this is hands-down, the coolest fucking thing to ever happen to horror fans, period. If you’re a big horror fan, but aren’t into video games, you should really give it a try. Video games are hardly the children’s toys they were of the past and have become quite sophisticated, adult-driven, immersible experiences. If
