Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead (2011)
Aahhh yes … just read that title again!! The Texas Frightmare Weekend 2012 dug deep for this one (hee hee)!! This was listed on the program as a “Secret Screening” due to it not being picked up yet for North American distribution. The title, ZOMBIE ASS: TOILET OF THE DEAD, captures exactly what this film … Read more
It’s in the Blood (2012)
The first film I watched at this year’s Texas Frightmare Weekend 2012 was one I heard absolutely nothing about: IT’S IN THE BLOOD. The film has a very small main cast, is filmed in isolated and remote areas, and often times has a very hallucinatory feel to it. IT’S IN THE BLOOD is an indie … Read more
The Cabin in the Woods: The Official Visual Companion (2012) & Novelization (2012)
Forgive me but I’m gonna start off this review on a bit of a rant. What the fuck is wrong with horror fans? All most of them do is bitch and moan about all the remakes and re-imagings of beloved classics pouring outta Hollywood. They often yell, “I know there’s gotta be some original, kick … Read more
Area 407 (2011)
I’ve been doing something new lately. Whenever possible I try to go into watching a new horror flick blind. I don’t look it up on IMDb.com, I don’t don’t look for the trailer on YouTube, and I don’t read any of the details on the spec sheets I get when I receive screeners. This is … Read more

The Raven (2012)
Edgar Allan Poe inspired many writers, thinkers, and academics. His life was filled with sadness, death, alcoholism, drug addiction, and scholars who study Poe’s writings even hint that the man suffered from depression. But goddamn the man knew how to write a dark poem/short story!! The man had his demons and even the events surrounding … Read more
Ever Hear of The Butcher Fairy? You Better Hope You Never Do!!
As a parent and horror fan, there’s just some “myths” I can’t wrap my head around. The Easter Bunny, for one. What the hell does a giant rabbit have to do with Jesus poking his head out of the ground, and if he sees his shadow we get 4 more weeks of winter. Wait a … Read more
Severed (2011-2012)
Huge thanks to my buddy Steve Spatucci who not only turned me on to SEVERED, but who mailed them to me!!

But nothing gets me angrier than buying a comic … Read more
