No, not the zombie flick - Shock Waves starring Peter Cushing. This post is about a couple of hackers from downtown Austin Texas who felt the need to make everyone aware of a nazi zombie attack. Apparently, these hackers managed to alter a road sign to warn drivers of zombies ahead. This clever prank is downright awe inspiring. Some people didn’t find this prank amusing. But I did. I would love to shake the hands of the people who did this. Well done.

Check out the video below. 

Hey Fright Fans! The Dr. is back with another addition to my Prism Horror Sticker collection. As promised, I have posted more kick butt prism horror stickers from my youth.
I’ve been doing some research on these and there doesn’t seem to be much information out there. I doubt the studios had any involvement with them, so obviously some company decided to disregard the law and print them up themselves. I’m happy they did. I’ve also noticed that they are also referred to as Prisma Stickers.
I also seem to be one of the last people on the planet to even own them. I can’t seem to find anyone else who has them. I suppose everyone who had the stickers, stuck them on their books, lockers and pets. Fortunately for me, I never stuck them on anything. I saved them all and kept them hidden in my basement for years.

Anyway, this week we have some iconic monsters of mayhem with some cult hits thrown in for good measure. I really like the outlined Leatherface sticker and the Jason mask is bad ass. I’ve honestly never seen Zombie Nightmare but They Live is one of my favorite Carpenter classics.
Be sure to tune in next week - same bat-time, same bat-channel for my final installment of Horror Stickers.

I made it over to my local theater this weekend and I have this to say….Ladies and Gentlemen, the slasher film is back! I’ve said it before; I’m not a fan of recent horror remakes, but occasionally there is a diamond in the rough. My Bloody Valentine 3-D is one of those diamonds. A remake that doesn’t stray too far from the original but also doesn’t make a carbon copy of the original.

Just like the 1981 film, this 2009 remake has solid character development (for a horror flick), interesting locations and balls to the wall gore. I was able to see it in 3-D which made the experience 10 times more enjoyable. Come on! Horror and 3-D go together like peanut butter and jelly. And the filmmakers know this. They take full advantage of the 3-D and deliver the blood right from the get go. 

Tired of all the recent “torture porn”? Me too. So it was nice to see an old-fashioned thriller flick again. Who knows, it might get old real quick once the Friday the 13th remake is released. But let’s enjoy it while it lasts. 

3 Headstones out of 5

Surprise, Surprise. Another horror remake is scheduled to be released this Friday. The slasher classic My Bloody Valentine has been given the remake treatment for mondern audiences, but with an added bonus. It’s in 3-D!!!!
I hate remakes as much as the next guy, but I cannot wait to check this one out. I probably would have passed and waited for video, but I’m a sucker for 3-D. So, in recognition of this new 3-D obsession Hollywood has, I decided to join in on the fun. I’ve made some 3-D pictures for everyone to look at. If you don’t have any 3-D glasses lying around, you can pick them up dirt cheap right here.

So get out those blue and red specs, sit back, relax, pop some popcorn and enjoy these non-moving 3-D pictures!!!

Last week I was down in my crypt looking for my lucky scalpel and I stumbled upon some old horror stickers. I hadn’t seen these things in years! Man are they cool. I especially love the 80’s prism that stylishly borders each one.
I remember when I was a boy at Doctors In Training Day Camp. We would visit the bowling alley every Friday. I’d go there, play a few games and stop on over at the sticker machine. I’d put 50 cents into the machine and pull out a piece of cardboard with an unknown prize sticker inside. The bowling alley only sold them for one summer. Too bad. I would have loved to collect more.

I’ve posted some here. Be sure to check back in the coming weeks for the remainder of my horror sticker collection.

Vampires got you down? Tired of constantly fending off blood suckers? Sick of bolting your door and locking your metal shutters just before the setting sun? Fear no more with Vampicillin.

New to the market for 2009, Hemoglobin Industries has released a new form of antibiotic which makes your blood unappetizing and even deadly to Vampires. Vampicillin is sold in tablet form and can be taken once a week. Created from a new species of super-garlic, the pill is ingested and absorbed into the blood stream. The pill works by bonding to the blood cells and creating a kind of garlic barrier around the cell. Vampires can sense this garlic barrier and will not travel within 100 yards of the antibiotic user. Don’t waste another moment – Vampicillin will give you the freedom of leaving the house at sundown and will allow you to walk down those dark alleyways without fear.
