More Writing in the Diary of the Dead 2008-07-18 10:02:03 I never thought i'd see the day when news of a new George Romero zombie film did not excite me. I'm a huge fan of Night, Day, Dawn, hell I even liked Land. But I draw the line at Diary
of the Dead. I found the movie to be terrible, almost as bad as the Day of the Dead remake.Well, thanks to an inside scoop from website Dread Central, it has been pretty much confirmed that Romero will begin film
Fear Itself - New Year's Day 2008-07-17 23:41:01 So I think i've established the fact that based on the two episodes of Fear Itself
i've seen, the show pretty much sucks. But this weeks episode was directed by Darren Bousman and for me that's enough to draw me in. Bousman directed Saw 2,3, and 4 and most recently directed the hotly anticipated Repo : The Genetic Opera. Being a big fan of the Saw films and of Bousman himself, I was pretty exci Read more:New Year

Maneater Series : Croc 2008-07-17 15:19:05 If you've been into your local dvd store in the past couple months and were granted with the gift of sight at birth, you've probably come across what is being called the "Maneater
Series" (aka how to take a shitty sci-fi original picture and make it somewhat appealing via a slipcover and a snappy emblem.) This is a collection of several horror films centered around large (cgi) animals terrorizing
The Dark Knight - First Six Minutes! 2008-07-17 02:38:03 Check out the awesome first six minutes of The Dark Knight
:So it's not exactly horror, but so the fuck what...I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I didnt have some kind of coverage for this movie. This just might turn out to be the best movie ever created by man and i'm not just saying that cause Heath Ledger's no longer with us...not that it hurts...The Dark Knight hits theaters this Friday Read more:First
He'll Huff And Puff And Rip Your Guts Out 2008-07-15 19:56:37 Big Bad Wolf (2006) is at first glance your typical werewolf film and your typical horror film. A group of cliche fraternity pals (the kind of kids you just cant wait to see get ripped limb from bloody limb) use their geeky school mate to gain access to his dad's remote cabin in the woods. They were even directed there by the stereotypical creepy old dude, played by Clint Howard as usual. Whil
Scream A Little More 2008-07-15 10:15:16 Today it was announced that the Weinstein Company has signed a 7 year film deal with Showtime that will begin in 2009.

Of The S.S, is being turned into a comic book series. While plans for a real feature film have been talked about, no plans have been set yet, but this is definetly a step in the right direction.

I'm So Hungry, I Could Eat A Whore 2008-07-11 16:53:10 Microwave Massacre. The worst horror movie of all time? It's certaintly up there. Although, it's not so much a horror movie as it is a sleazy dark comedy with some cannibalism thrown into the mix. If the director of a film proudly exclaims it as being the worst horror film of all time as part of the advertising, it must be pretty bad, right?Check out the TRAILERI would post it right on here, b Read more:Hungry

Haven't I Seen That Before? 2008-07-11 01:19:25 Are you ever watching a horror film and during a certain scene get a sudden sense of deja vu? You have seen this before, but you can't remember where. Filmmakers, especially horror filmmakers, who have a deep love for the genre, tend to put clever little winks and nods into their own films. Sometimes, they even replicate an entire scene from their favorite classic horror film. Quentin Tarantin Read more:Haven
Even More T-Rex Art 2008-07-10 23:08:42 Rob Zombie keeps it comin. Gotta love this kind of vague marketing. Wrestler, boxer, biker, all three? Just what the hell is T-Rex!? Given Sheri Moon has already been cast, you can bet your ass that that's her on the back of the bike as Rex's right hand lady.Looking forward to many more hints and clues in the months, and even year to come. T-Rex is slated for release August of next year.
A True Nightmare 2008-07-10 02:07:54 I feel it is my duty as a horror fan to spread the word on this.It seems a diehard Tara Reid fan has started a petition for her to get a role in the upcoming Nightmare
on Elm Street remake. In retaliation, Mr. Disgusting over at Bloody Disgusting started an opposing petition, to keep her out of Elm Street.SIGNThe petition for Tara Reid has 741 signatures, while the petition against her has only 3
Take A Ride Into Hell 2008-07-10 01:26:24 Quentin Tarantino, Dennis Hopper, Vinnie Jones, David Carradine and Michael Madsen....need I say more?Set for release August 8th, the Tarantino produced Hell Ride centers around the biker gang of Pistolero (Larry Bishop), Comanche (Eric Balfour), and The Gent (Madsen) who set out to avenge the murder of one of their members at the hands of the deadly 666ers. As expected, all hell breaks loose alo

Is That Otis Movie Any Good? 2008-07-08 22:51:56 Why yes, yes it is. Quite good in fact. First off, if you haven't yet, check out the trailer:Otis is about a man, aptly named Otis, who kidnaps women and traps them in his basement, forcing them to act out his boyfriend/girlfriend high school fantasies. He just want's to take one of these girls to the "prom", which in this case occurs in his dark dank basement. Problem is, none of them seem to
"The Tarantino Murders" 2008-07-08 22:27:17 French Students' Slayings Shock LondonLONDON (July 8) - The tabloids are calling them the "Tarantino
murders."The two young Frenchmen, promising research students at one of Britain's top universities, had been bound and stabbed repeatedly in the head, neck and torso before their bodies were doused in fuel and set alight.

Not Just Any T-Rex 2008-07-08 17:19:19 New art from Rob Zombie's upcoming film Tyrannosaurus Rex has hit the net : Details on the film are still sketchy and in the dark. Some have speculated that the film is based on Rob Zombie's comic book The Nail, which was about a pro wrestler named Rex on the run from a satanic biker gang. While it seems fairly obvious that the comic will be the basis for this film, Zombie has denied these rumo
Kickin' It With Krueger 2008-07-05 17:03:25 Horror fans popped a collective boner when Nike announced their "horror pack." Sneakers based on Nightmare on Elm Street, Dawn of the Dead, and Friday the 13th. The only one's that really caught my eye and conveyed what they were representing, were the "Freddy Krueger's". The shoes that Freddy would rock if he had any sense of style. They were beautiful. Covered in blood and featuring Freddy'
Fear Itself - Spooked 2008-07-02 02:18:59 This episode was a bit better then In Sickness and In Health, but is that really saying much?Spooked was the 2nd episode, directed by Brad Anderson. You may know him as the director of Session 9 and The Machinist. Both films gained huge amounts of respect from most fans. It's still a mystery to me how such good directors turn out such poor mediocre films in series like Masters of Horror and thi Read more:Itself

(Don't worry you didn't miss the other editions, there never were any...if anyone's even reading this thing)This one comes from the French horror film Frontier(s). Why there's an s in question marks, I have no fuckin idea. That's just the way it is. I also don't know what was in the Pulp Fiction briefcase, so don't ask.Frontier(s) is very
I Do....Wanna Kill You 2008-07-01 18:51:08 NBC has a fairly new horror anthology series that's been airing the last couple weeks titled Fear Itself. It airs every Thursday at 10pm. From what I gather, it's simply Masters of Horror downgraded for NBC. When Masters was cancelled, Mick Garris re-tooled it for NBC under a new title. Contributors thus far to the series have been Breck Eisner, Ronny Yu, and Brad Anderson. Given that I have

! The film stars Kiefer Sutherland as a security guard at a department store who becomes the target of an evil force using mirrors as a gateway into his home.

Straight Out Of A Horror Film 2008-08-01 12:15:41 Two very interesting news stories were brought to my attention earlier this evening, with equally enticing headlines :"Passenger decapitated on Greyhound bus" and "Dead monster washes ashore in Montauk."-First off in Manitoba, a 40 year old on a Greyhound bus traveling across Canada calmly sat next to a sleeping 19 year old kid and repeatedly stabbed him some 40 or so times. He then just as calml Read more:Straight
More Comic Conny Goodness 2008-08-01 01:35:20 -Empire scored an exclusive look at the pretty cool looking poster for the more than likely flop remake of My Bloody Valentine...in 3D. Apparently, the MPAA rejected this poster. I'm all for some good old fashioned 3D horror, but if the remakes of the past have taught us anything, it's to not expect much from them. 10 years ago, there was a massacre on Valentine's Day that claimed the lives of Read more:Comic
