Well, I’ll be damned. The Red Band bump for Evil Dead has hit the net, and my expectations hit the deck. This may well be enough to take back all the snotty things I said about Diablo Cody permanently. See? This and the upcoming Maniac reboot may finally prove that remakes don’t have to suck. [...]

No Comments »I Am Not A Hero: Manborg
Posted by hembree on December 19th, 2012
Hellbots. Katana blades. War. Cyberpunk-dystopia-supreme. Demonic first impressions going down like lead balloons. One hero must rise from the ashes of humanity, forged in the retro-futuristic technology of 198X to save us from the foulest evil of the darkest depths of hell and banal, idiotic mainstream entertainment. Welcome to Manborg, the newest addition to the [...]

Posted by hembree on December 11th, 2012
At some point around the time vacuum that was Thanksgiving/Black Friday, I received a message from one Tim Willis. He had included some artwork that pulled me out of my tryptophan induced glutton-coma and my mind was blown. If you aren’t familiar with vector artwork, google it and behold the insane amount of this legion [...]

Posted by hembree on November 22nd, 2012
I’ve been away trying to purchase a home and learning to juggle more responsibilities than I ever thought I’d be capable of. The review list is getting longer and longer, but meanwhile the film world marcheth onward. We’ll get caught up soon, but right now we’re gonna be kind and rewind to last Summer before [...]

Posted by hembree on October 15th, 2012
Back momentarily with some good news! Before I scurry off into the darkness while I try to get some projects under control, I need to alert you to the most excellent weekend you could have this Friday through Sunday – it’s time once more for the Dark Carnival Film Festival at the historic Buskirk Chumley [...]

Posted by hembree on September 15th, 2012
I was on time for once, but it was still Sunday Bloody Sunday as far as I was concerned. I arrived at the hotel hoping to wrap up loose ends and finally put a definition to the weekend and summarize the point. There weren’t as many people around today – and due to the massive [...]
HorrorHound Weekend Recap: The Agony and The Ecstasy, Part 3
Posted by hembree on September 13th, 2012
There’s a thread that has run through my life that’s almost Dickensian in its humor. It really was the best of times and worst of times, and usually within minutes of each other – for every epoch there’s a serious dirge mere moments away. I don’t believe in astrology – as Mr. Mojo Rising once [...]

Posted by hembree on September 11th, 2012
I never adjusted to the time change. A creature of habit and natural symptom of the night, I despise mornings. It should have been no surprise I’d oversleep, much as I have every day for the last seven years. I write this in fact, coming from a fever induced slumber. If it picks back up, [...]

Posted by hembree on September 11th, 2012
24 hours ago I returned from HorrorHound Weekend Indianapolis. I attended the event to bear witness on behalf of Globsters everywhere, to speak to the icons of Horror that we’ve watched indefinitely, to bear goodwill when available, and to get to the heart of the beast. I had entertained the notion of conventions for years, [...]

Posted by hembree on August 30th, 2012
I think I’ve mentioned that I’m really into rad artwork from time to time. Film in itself is an artform, and it’s no surprise that the whole cycle kind of inspires itself. Not only do I try to feature awesome filmmakers, but actors, composer, artists, anyone who helps to keep the cycle of excellent films [...]
