There are few things more representative of Halloween than the General Mills monster cereals, which return to supermarket shelves every September and only stick around through the big day. It’s their limited nature that makes them so special, though one could argue that the likes of Boo Berry, Franken Berry and Count Chocula would be …
As you can see by our always-running countdown up above, we are currently a mere 86 days away from Halloween 2014, which means it’s getting to be that time where Halloween shops start popping up in our hometowns, and normally boring stores become a whole lot more exciting. In fact, just this past weekend I …
This past weekend marked the theatrical release of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, which proved to be a big time success both critically and financially. The film’s weekend total reached a staggering $94.3 million here in North America, making it the highest-grossing August debut OF ALL TIME. Couple those insane box office numbers with an …
If there’s one thing I’ve been looking forward to from The Strain, it’s Abraham Setrakian’s transformation from badass old dude to badass old dude who kills vampires, which was has been all but promised in the past couple episodes.

Though being beaten over the head with Kickstarter funds admittedly gets a little annoying sometimes, it’s nevertheless awesome to see a young filmmaker use the platform to make a movie he otherwise wouldn’t have been able to, which is …

As movies like 1988’s Scarecrows (coming soon from Scream Factory!), Dark Night of the Scarecrow and even Batman Begins have proven, there’s something insanely cool – and totally badass – about scarecrows. Of course, it’s the gnarly burlap masks that define the look of scarecrows, and there’s nobody out there who’s nailing that look better …
