Chillerama (REVIEW)

If I had to guess, I would assume that nostalgia plays a huge role in a lot of horror fans love of the genre. Personally, I know that when people ask me why I like and write about genre flicks, my go-to answer usually involves growing up watching these films with my father and childhood friends. Given that I grew up as a child of the nineties, anthology horror in particular triggered that nostalgic feeling more than almost anything.

Album Review: Rose Funeral - "Gates of Punishment"

More work to do. That's was my initial and lasting impression of Rose Funeral's "Gates of Punishment." The band prides themselves on their unique character of groove-based death metal, but that quality doesn't come through quite like the band would have you believe.

Horror Headlines: Wednesday October 5th, 2011

Trouble in Miami kids. It looks like Showtime and Michael C. Hall have yet to come to an agreement on a contract to extend Hall's run as "Dexter" two more seasons. Seems that Hall wants a shit load more money and Showtime only wants to give him a crap load. It's getting pretty heated. If an agreement can't be reached it looks like season 6, which premiered this past weekend could be the last.

The list of people who want nothing to do with "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" continues to grow with one Miss Blake Lively now passing on the leading role. Natalie Portman, Emma Stone and Mia Wasikowska have also given a big "aww hell no" to the role. I don't want to jinx it but this sounds like wonderful news for Monica Keena. It's only a matter of time before she gets offered the role.

A bunch of new stills have found their way onto writer/director Darren Bousman's twitter page for "The Barrens", a new flick that follows a family on a camping trip where they run into the Jersey Devil. Hunky "True Blood" star Stephen Moyer takes lead in this one along with Mia Kirshner, who I don't know but from her IMDB picture I assume is a ball buster. I mean that in the best way possible.

"The Lost Coast Tapes" is a new found footage flick that follows a group who encounter the one and only Bigfoot. The forest beast not the monster truck. Although that would be pretty cool if it was just a bunch of kids being chased around by a giant truck. Anyway this isn't that. It's about the big hairy guy from the beef jerky commercials. I think we've gone off topic though. Take a look at the new poster for the flick. It's got a guy impaled on a tree. Grave Digger would probably be scarier anyway.

In Real People News: 

It's Halloween time kids and that means all kinds of creative lawn decorations. Like this one in North Carolina of a fake body stuffed under a riding lawn mower. Of course people in North Carolina are pretty dumb so a bunch of people called 911 when they saw it and a big to do broke out. Silly hicks.

Good news, Canada! You can now legally dress up like a woman, watch Simpsons porn and have sex with a Cabbage Patch Doll hooked up to a vacuum cleaner without fear of legal persecution. Long live freedom!

Trailer: "Devil's Night" (2011)

Our favorite little scream queen Danielle Harris stars in the Canadian film, "Devil's Night" about a masked killer who stalks a fraternity and their girlfriends. Why would anyone want to bump off a bunch of fraternity brothers one by one you ask? Well, it just so happens that this fraternity was involved in a Halloween prank the year before that resulted in the death of a teen. "Devil's Night" is written and directed by Christopher Harrison and stars Danielle Harris, Steve Byers and Shawn Roberts.

New Video For Behemoth's "Lucifer" Is Super Evil

Poland's Behemoth are so freakin evil it will make you gouge your eyes out. Need proof? Check out their new video for their track "Lucifer" off of 2009's "Evangelion". It's so chock full of evil that I don't even know what to do with myself. What took them so long to make the video you might ask? Well lead singer Adam "Nergal" Darski was busy kicking leukemia's ass all over the place, fighting charges that stem from a 2007 incident where he tore up a bible on stage in his homeland and lastly landing a spot on Poland's version of "The Voice". Seriously, that last one isn't a joke.
