January 31, 2010

Wherein myself and the opinionated Count Vardulon of Castle Vardulon wade through the good and the bad of the French “hypergore” flick, Inside.

The Why of Simon in “Session 9″

Session 9
It should be noted beforehand that this post contains so many fuckin’ spoilers your face will melt.
When asked what my favorite horror film I always say without missing a beat, “Session 9″ (review). There was a brief period a couple of months ago where Paranormal Activity (review) took the top spot, but careful reflection [...]

Another round of “Bear with me” while I fuck with the layout of the site.
Special thanks to Corey from Evil on Two Legs for helping out a CSS newb.

Bloody Disgusting’s Horror Blogger Awards

January 26, 2010

Bloody Disgusting’s little horror contest to spite Total Film is up and running. I’m not going to tell you to vote for me, because pandering for votes is pathetic. I won’t place this all over Facebook, or Twitter, and I certainly won’t e-mail everyone, because no one wants to be bothered with that. All I [...]

Sold on the “The Signal”

January 25, 2010

This trailer sold me completely on The Signal, which currently stands as one of my favorite horror films. It’s a damn shame it had be taken down due to the unauthorized use of Lou Reed’s “Perfect Day,” covered in by Jon Thomas Hall in a delightfully appropriate rock styling. The Signal also made me realize [...]

Total Film Drops the Ball, Revealed to be Incredibly Self-Serving

January 14, 2010

2010 Horror Blog Awards
I normally don’t give a shit about stuff like this but this cause célèbre is worthy of mention for a few reasons.
Recently, Total Film released their list of nominees for Best Horror Blog. Although featuring some top quality websites, one would be hard pressed to accurately deem any of them blogs. [...]

Nothing Should Be Sacred

Dawn of the Dead

“Zombies don’t run.”
Well, why the fuck not?
With Zack Snyder’s plot-hole ridden and downright hilarious re-imagining of Romero’s Dawn of the Dead, convention was turned upside down and the commonly accepted notion of the slow zombie was thrown to the wind. Fast zombies, heretofore relegated to more comedy-themed horror films such as Return [...]

An Assortment of Minutiae

I was a guest on the AVOD this past week. Myself, Count Vardulon, and the Dive Mistress waxed poetic on the best films of the decade and why New Moon is a horrible movie. If I recall correctly, all I could mutter was more shit about God being dead, but good times were had all [...]
