Man oh man. I finally caught Splinter the other day due to my friend Carl’s recommendation and HOLYCRAP WAS IT AWESOME. It’s about a couple who gets kidnapped by an ex-con – only to end up trapped inside a gas station by the craziest parasite ever put on film. I mean, this thing is BRUTAL.

If you’d like to actually listen to me talk about movies instead of just reading what I write about them, the lovely people at Scarecrow Video had me on their podcast as a guest — in which I cover some Italian Horror, Eli Roth’s films, and movie soundtracks. You can find it here. {photo
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! For my “trick” today, I got to experience catastrophic hard drive failure, and have spent all day trying to restore and back-up files. So uh, yeah. I’m behind on my 31 Days of Horror postings – and there’s no chance of catching up tonight. It’s cool to just pretend November is still October,

Not to mention mazes of; The Thing: Assimilation, Alice Cooper’s Welcome to My Nightmare, Rob Zombie’s House of 1,000 Corpses, and tons of other
The Human Centipede News Network Because my friend Rich and I are ridiculous, he kicked around the idea of creating HCNN and I said I would contribute if he set it up…which he did. So yeah. It’s um. Live. The funniest part? Rich doesn’t like bloody disgusting movies. So he’s never seen HC, and will
What. the. hell. I stumbled across this completely incomprehensible, but still weird enough that I’m intrigued show (?) thing (?) creation (?) performance art (?) called Psychoville on BBC today.

The Walking Dead promo truck in San Diego for ComicCon! Please tell me one of you got to see this AWESOMENESS in person.
They finally released a trailer for Lucky McKee’s The Woman, which I wrote about a few weeks ago.
