Halloween Jack-O-Lantern‎

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Sadly, I didn’t have much time to carve my pumpkin this year. I’ve been quite busy lately, restoring old caskets from ancient, underground crypts. I also had no idea what I was going to carve. So I  ran out to the local farm and grabbed the best pumpkin I could find. I came home, put on Creepshow and quickly brainstormed on what my Jack-O-Lantern should be.  When you’re short on pumpkin-carving time, do what I do; choose a famous horror icon. This year I went with an old friend from Crystal Lake. His name was Jason.

Michael Myers Played Football?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

A friend of mine gave me this football card and I couldn’t believe who was on it! Michael Myers! I had no idea he enjoyed tossing around the ol’ pigskin with the boys. I knew he liked killing pretty women, mysteriously disappearing after being shot multiple times and that his favorite day was October 31st. But football? I guess you really do learn something new everyday. Damn shame he didn’t play for the Haddonfield Boogeymen.

Myers lead the Crimson Tide in sacks as well as tackles behind the line of scrimmage in 1996.

How do you feel about this Blob Fish? Would you keep it as a pet? Would you bring it to 6 Flags with you? Would you teach it to recite Arnold Schwarzenegger quotes? Discuss.

The Zombie Theory

Friday, June 12th, 2009

“In Night of the Living Dead, zombies are brought back from the dead by a “mysterious force” that allows their brains to continue functioning. But how exactly does a zombie brain function? Finally, a Harvard psychiatrist has the answers.

Through education Dr. Steven C. Schlozman is an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and a lecturer at the Harvard School of Education. He is also an avid sci-fi and horror fan – and, apparently, the world’s leading authority on the neurobiology of the living dead. He has even drafted a fake medical journal article on the zombie plague, which he calls Ataxic Neurodegenerative Satiety Deficiency Syndrome, or ANSD (the article has five authors: one living, three “deceased” and one “humanoid infected”).”

Monster Weekend

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

I recently got a call from some Universal Monsters who said they were in town and wanted to stop by. I normally sleep in on Saturdays, but I figured “what the hell”? So, after visiting the local Home Depot to pick up new neck bolts for Frankenstein, we headed off to the movies. At the end of my block there is an old movie theater. They were playing the 1958 version of The Fly, starring Vincent Price. This is Dracula’s favorite film, so he was pumped. Of course the Wolfman had to get popcorn and the Creature bought Swedish Fish. The Mummy fell asleep during the movie. He was out late the night before – he was dead tired. Frankenstein and his Bride were too busy muggin’ out in the back of the theater to watch the film.

After the flick, we stopped by the cemetary where the Monsters tried on some Headstone City horror t-shirts. It was a great time; digging up corpses, waking the dead and taking pictures. Enjoy the pics I took on my Monster adventure.

Friday the 13th

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Happy Friday the 13th!!!
In recognition of Friday the 13th being released on Friday the 13th I have posted a wonderfully made compilation of every Jason kill from all of his films, including Freddy Vs. Jason.
I love number 29 from Friday the 13th Part 3…eyeballs always make that sound when forced out of a human skull. But my favorite is number 148 from Jason X, when he freezes the chicks face in liquid nitrogen and then smashes it on the counter. Tell us what your favorites are!

Viewer discretion is advised – lots of BLOOD! But you know what I always say; “The gore, the merrier.”

Nazi Zombies! Run!!!!

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

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. 


 

3-D Adventure

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

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!!!
