“Creep Street means you ain’t afraid to get epic and live life to the very last drop!”

Creep Street is an exuberant, colorful and 80’s street-inspired brand of clothing. Combining the flamboyant street style of the 80s with horror themes, Creep Street’s fusion of bright neon colors and monster designs create outspoken and unique clothing for fans of the 80s AND fans of horror movies.

Everything about Creep Street is giddily energetic, from their shirt designs to their old-skool Nintendo website intro (check out their killer site at www.madcreepy.com)! Horror fans that want to add a spark of vibrant color to their gory gear should check out the fun and playful designs of Creep Street.

The origins of Creep Street are as simple as the plot to an 80s slasher movie. Boris and Chip, two kids from New York with wayyyyy too much energy were bored with the current street-wear styles. They wanted clothes that they could relate to, clothes that expressed their love of monster movies and the 80s.

Creator Boris says:

“With us being 80’s babies, living in the 90’s and rocking out in the 2000’s, we quickly clicked for the love of neon colors, monster movies, skateboarding, dinosaurs, food, bad commercials and basically weird & creepy irrelevant things that were ultimately poor in taste.

With that being said and always wanting to start our own project - it was only proper to call ourselves Creep Street! We are our favorite movies, TV shows, and current Hollywood tabloids combined with the raddest of colors, love for gore, horror, b-movies, hip-hop, rock, and pretty much everything your parents told you not to do.”

And with that, Creep Street was born and is intent on taking over the world!

I got to check out four of Creep Street’s creep-tacular designs, and let me tell ya, any horror fan worth their 80s’-loving salt would flip over the horror-inspired designs. Their “Chopping Mall” shirt comes in an eye-popping blue, pink or yellow and features a gory-fied monster head emblazed on the front.

Their “Filthy” shirt features Popeye getting the closest shave of his life by his nemesis Bluto! It’s my personal favorite and comes in toxic-waste green or clean-shaven white.

“Feast on Flesh” comes in putrid purple or ravaged red, and features a hungry-looking she-zombie looking for braiiiiiins! It even glows in the dark! Neat-O!

“Street Trash” features the gaping jaws of a very hungry looking vamp. It comes in putrescent pink or bottomless black. Don’t drink the hobo hooch from the film that the shirt takes its inspiration from!

Besides the four fearsome shirts I got to check out, Creep Street features many more designs that can be seen on their site, www.madcreepy.com.

Besides having totally tubular designs, Creep Street’s shirts are very high quality and pay careful attention to detail. The tags on the inside even have personalized messages on them! The shirts also boast a Creep Street logo on the back – something that looks cool but isn’t obtrusive.

Creep Street is definitely in it for the love! And the creators want to include as many people as they can in their world of monster movies, tabloids, video games, gore, hip-hop and horror! Highly original designs and colors make Creep Street one of the more unique horror brands out there today. If you want to stand out in a crowd and wear the most bodacious shirts, Creep Street is the place you wanna be.

Creator Boris puts it best when he says, “We get epic and hope you do too!”

Review by Gabrielle Faust

There is no greater travesty in the movie world than the obliteration of a classic. As a member of the advertising world for nearly a decade, I understand intimately the power of propaganda and the almighty dollar. Sequels are examples of capitalism at its finest; industry executives hungrily attempting to wring every last gore-streaked penny from a good idea. However, just as a scorpion’s last sting is never as potent as its first, as Hollywood writers try desperately to twist and distort the original into something palatable by modern masses, the quality of the films go down exponentially. Unfortunately, this seems to be the fate of the fourth edition of the Pumpkinhead legacy.

I will admit that I never bothered renting Pumpkinhead II or III. This isn’t because I was being a snob; it’s because I hadn’t heard of them. They were so obscure, so quickly shoved into a back corner of the rental house that I did not even notice their existences. So, when I saw the fourth edition sitting on the shelf the other day I thought to myself, “My gods! Two decades and they are still creating these movies? It must be worth my $4 at least.” Ah, how gravely I was mistaken. Instead of being at least moderately entertaining as in the later installments of Nightmare on Elm Street or Aliens, what I witnessed on the screen was an inbred degeneration of original storyline absent of even a modicum of intelligence or entertainment. And what saddened me most of all was that Lance Henriksen is in this film! Are times so bad for this wonderful actor that he must take such lowly projects on? (more…)

HOT TOPLESS GIRLS!!!

I couldn’t think of a decent setup to this review of Hack, so I thought I’d try and grab you with that one. If you’re still reading this, then my dastardly plan worked and it’ll be up to my reviewing skills to keep you reading…

…Unless there are PICTURES of said topless girls in the middle of the review…you know, just to keep you interested. But, you’ll never know…unless you read on.

As such, I’ll just keep on hacking away at the review…Get it? Hack? And the name of the movie is ironically called…Hack. I’m sorry, that was bad. I know I’m responsible for my hacktions and I’ll try to keep from hackcidentally bad writing…

HOT COMPLETELY NAKED GIRLS!!!
And for you female readers: HOT WELL HUNG COMPLETELY NAKED GUYS!!!
For you gay guys: HOT COMPLETELY NAKED WELL HUNG GUYS!!!
For you lesbian women: HOT COMPLETELY NAKED GIRLS THAT LISTEN TO YOUR FEELINGS AND DON’T WANT YOU STRICTLY FOR SEX BUT REALLY CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU FEEL AND HOPE FOR THE FUTURE!!!
To people who engage in bestiality (I don’t judge): PUPPIES!!!
To people who think Josh Hartnett is a good actor: PUPPIES!!!

There, you’re back on my side. (more…)

Tales Of Horror Presents Peter Lorie in Those Who Walk In Darkness

Pretty/Scary, one of our favorite horror sites that is “for women in horror by women in horror,” recently posted their list of The Most Influential Women in Horror in 2007.

The list includes actresses Ashley Judd (for her role in Bug), Jessica Alba (for, um, being pretty? Oh, and for her role in the upcoming remake of The Eye and the end-of-the-year film Pathology), Sheri Moon Zombie (for her role as Michael’s stripper-with-a-heart-of-gold mom in Rob Zombie’s Halloween), horror journalist/writer Staci Layne Wilson (our personal favorite! Yay Staci!), Rue Morgue’s editor-in-chief Jovanka Vuckovic, horror personality Elvira, who made a comeback this year with her reality TV show The Search for the Next Elvira, scribes Diablo Cody (made famous by the critically-acclaimed Juno; her next project is the horror flick Jennifer’s Body) and Jace Anderson (who helped write Dario Argento’s upcoming Mother of Tears), producers Sarah Elbert (Hatchet) and Lisa Richardson (Masters of Horror series) and many, many more noteworthy women.

Read all about these influential and inspiring women over at the article on Pretty/Scary.

Welcome to the first episode of Drunken Zombie TV. Our video show. For the first episode we review the movie IT'S MY PARTY AND I'LL DIE IF I WANT TO, get some Life Lessons from Crazy Uncle Randy, and Dave has a chat with Tom Savini.

As part of Universal Pictures 2008 preview we've been supplied with the first official still for Paul W.S. Anderson's Death Race remake, which arrives in theaters September 26. The film stars Jason Statham, Tyrese Gibson, Joan Allen, John Fallon, Ian McShane, Natalie Martinez, Max Ryan, Jason Clarke and Fred Koehler. Read on for your first look at the film and watch this spot for a report from the set in 2008.

After The Descent one of our most anticipated films of 2008 is Neil Marshall's Doomsday, which is still looking for a release date. Today Universal Pictures provided Bloody-Disgusting with two brand spanking new stills from the film, which is set three decades after a lethal virus tore through a major country, leading to the country's walling off. When the virus, known as the Reaper, resurfaces in another country, an elite group is dispatched to the infected country to find a cure. There, they end up shut off from the rest of the world and must battle through a landscape that has become a waking nightmare.
