I like challenging films. I view movies as an art form – a particularly important art form at that – every kind of artistic discipline comes together here to create something larger than life. The definition of good art for years has been art that makes us think, that makes us feel something, that challenges [...]

I recently watched indie screamer Rites of Spring – if you remember correctly, I playfully mocked the poster a few weeks back, because it reminded me way too much of my daily life – and the seemingly mundane is more maddening than an army of Cthulus. Throw ritualistic demonic harvest rites and a botched kidnapping [...]

I gave it a lot of thought, and I’m not going because I’m broke I’m really just not into the whole comic book movie thing anymore. After witnessing Rainn Wilson lose [...]

It’s been a long week, and the nights have left me somewhat maladjusted. It’s been a little too quiet, and thought I’ve kicked the habit, I’ve been really…thirsty as of late…I could really go for a ‘martian’ right about now, but it’s nearing midnight, and I’m not sure if I want to leave as the [...]

It goes back to the same root as many other people who got into the genre many years ago with the classic Rankin Bass holiday specials. Die-hard RB fans don’t just check in at Christmas tho – and now, the wait is over for some truly excellent figures based on [...]

Consider me splatterhoused. Ok, now what the hell’s that supposed to mean? I’m sure the vast majority of horror fans and pop-culture obsessives are familiar with the video game; Splatterhouse was a blood-soaked homage to monster flicks in 16 Bit form, where you play as a Jason-masked hulk obliterating everything in his path – at [...]

I’m not an expert on foreign movies by any means, but I know a headtrip when I see one. Compared to such diverse series as Evil Dead and Scooby Doo, House is like a Polaroid snapshot of a bubblegum covered corpse, an odd juxtaposition of sunshine, friendship, a cannibalistic demon, blood, gore and insanity with [...]
