last night rules!

SCENE: a bar

ME: I totally loved you in Friday the 13th Part VIII.

KELLY HU: Oh my God! Who are you?

It's highly possible that I was the first person to mention Jason Takes Manhattan to Ms. Hu in quite some time, to say the least. She told me all about the shoot and when I suggested she consider bringing back the criss-crossed suspenders look, she replied "What was I thinking?"

She's kind of awesome.

In other news, so is beer.

Horror Roundtable – Week Eighty-Three

Name your favourite giant monster movie. Donald May, Jr. - Synapse Well, I’m fond of the GODZILLA series and still have a great fondness for the original B&W version (the Japanese one, not the Raymond Burr recut).

Are Zombie Video Games Supporting Anti-Undead Racism?



Chronicling the history of undead abuse featured in popular video games, a report last month from Game Asylum takes the stance that killing zombies in video games is just as bad as killing humans. Told from the point of view of "Richard," a contributing member of the living dead community, the article is peppered with quotes like:
Back in the days of Ghouls & Ghosts [...] we zombies were so pixelated and badly animated that we were almost a caricature of our now proud race. Indeed, when Sir Arthur threw a spear at the undead folk in Ghouls & Ghosts they just exploded in a most inoffensive way. Capcom even gave us comical blue skin and red hair. The wags! No offense meant; none taken.
And
Then it all went horribly wrong…Two words: Dead Rising. To us, it’s like the holocaust times a thousand. The holoooocaust. Shooting us with a shotgun was unsettling enough, but now gamers could crack us over the head with a bowling ball, cut us in two with a katana, ram us with shopping trolleys and even humiliate us by throwing CDs or cans of carbonated soft drinks.

awesome movie poster friday- the GOBLIN edition!

You may notice that these aren't technically movie posters- rather, they're LP covers. However, when searching for Argento posters last week I came across many a sweet Goblin soundtrack cover and they just wouldn't be ignored, so there. I do what I feel like!

Middle three Dawn of the Dead and the razor wire Suspiria for the win.


















Jan 25, child ghost under church bell

Hey, a long ago I saw a move (80's) where the plot revolved around a child ghost trapped underneath a fallen church bell. I want to say it was put
