MANIAC Wins Over The Queen

“I warned you not to go out tonight.”

This horror movie quote was my favorite throughout the ’80s and ’90s; ironically, it summed up the advice I gave most of my friends in college.

SHORT FILM -- Kill Your Television!

The title is awesome...but was the film just as awesome?

FILM -- Jonah Lives

A story of revenge from beyond the grave!

FILM -- Saturday Morning Massacre

This film starts off with four paranormal investigators...

I'm finally recovered from that awful cold! Let's ROLL!!! V/H/S is one of those found footage, horror anthologies compiled from the works of different directors.

FILM -- The Haunting of Whaley House

Upcoming Horrors for November 2012!

It's November! It's time to share the list of all the delightful horrors that are coming out this month! It doesn't matter if it's straight to DVD or theaters--horror is HORROR!

If you've already checked any of the movies out, please let me know; or if you plan on checking any out...let me know anyway! Or! If I'm missing any, let ME know!

Supernatural Activity - RELEASE DATE: November 6th, 2012

So by the looks of the cover can't you tell? It's a parody of Paranormal Activity--duh! So expect ridiculous, perhaps funny videos!

Vamps - RELEASE DATE: November 13th, 2012

I doubt that this is a horror, but of course because it has vampires in it, they slap it in the horror section. Anyhow, its the modern day tale of two young beautiful female vampires living the good nightlife in New York. UNTIL!! They fall in love...and now they have to choose between LOVE or jeopardizing their immortality.

Hellsgate - RELEASE DATE: November 16th, 2012

A business man, his wife and son experience a horrible accident while visiting Bangkok. In the aftermath, they find there is a shadow world between life and death where endless darkness lies.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (Part 2) - RELEASE DATE: November 16th, 2012

Not a horror but it has horror elements plus SURPRISINGLY, I'm a fan of Twilight. So. Yeah...judge all you want! I'm a secret romantic.

Hitchcock - RELEASE DATE: November 23rd, 2012

This film is based on a non-fiction book by Stephen Rebello. It's pretty much about how Hitchcock arrives at his highest point of directing and decides to make a horror.

Silent Night - RELEASE DATE: November 30th, 2012

A small-town sheriff and deputy are on the hunt for a murderous Santa Claus who terrorizes their community on Christmas Eve. But with the streets full of Santas for the annual Christmas parade...the killer is hiding in plain sight! Surprisingly! I'm looking forward to this film and have been since last year. :P

The Collection - RELEASE DATE: November 30th, 2012

Synopsis: “When Elena’s (Emma Fitzpatrick) friends take her to a secret party at an undisclosed location, she never imagined she would become the latest victim of The Collector, a psychopathic killer. The Collector kidnaps and transports her to an abandoned hotel he’s transformed into his own private maze of torture and death. Upon learning of his daughter’s disappearance, Elena’s wealthy father (Christopher McDonald) hires a group of mercenaries to retrieve her from the vicious grips of The Collector. These mercenaries coerce Arkin (Josh Stewart), the only man to have escaped the wrath of this heinous monster, to lead them through thegruesome labyrinth. Now, Arkin finds himself fighting for his own life in order to save Elena. “The Collection,” directed by Marcus Dunstan and written by Dunstan and Patrick Melton, is a suspense horror film with nonstop thrills at every turn.”

I'm sooo looking forward to The Collection!


Sadly, that's all the horrors that are coming out this month...
Happy Horror!

Zombie WATCH 2012!

I knew this day would come! I'm excited yet nervous because I've been in training before I can even remember; thanks to my awesome Mom and zombie paranoid siblings. Clearly, the government is trying to cover up the Zombie Apocalypse! [/end dramatic, scary music]

Anyway, if you haven't heard, a young man (Rudy Eugene) in Miami was eating off another man's face (Ronald Poppo). Yep...his face. Eating IT! And they both were naked. Reports said it was because the attacker had been suffering from a drug-induced psychosis which causes the body to heat up. It basically prompts some users to remove their clothes in an effort to cool down. Hmm...I thought it was because it's hot in Florida...

Suspecting Zombie: Rudy Eugene, 31, North Miami Beach.

Ronald Poppo, 65

The man who got his face eaten, Ronald Poppo, is in critical condition. I feel so horrible for the man. It's horrifying and sad at the same time. I couldn't imagine how he feels. There are some pictures surfacing on the web.

In another case, in New Jersey, a 43-year old man (Wayne Carter) was barricaded in his room with a 12-inch knife and planned on harming himself. The cops kicked in the door and ordered him (Wayne Carter) to drop the knife. Ignoring the officers’ orders, Carter allegedly began stabbing himself in the abdomen, neck and legs. BANANAS! The police tried to stop him from stabbing himself, so they decided to spray him with pepper spray. Perhaps, that would work. But no, it didn't. It actually just enraged him even more. That's when he started throwing his intestines and other pieces of his skin at the cops.

To make a long story short, the police called in the Bergen County SWAT team, who were able to eventually subdue Carter and get him to a hospital. He remains in critical condition. Ahem...they believe it was drugs or mental illness that led to this horrific incident.

If I was cop, after seeing some stuff like that--as much as I love horror movies, I'd just retire.

Suspecting Zombie: Alexander Kinyua, 21, Maryland

In the most recent zombie attack, 21-year-old Maryland resident Alexander Kinyua ate his roommates heart and part of his brain.  He now faces first degree murder. Kinyua's brother found what he thought was human remains in the basement at the family's house.

The brother told his father but when the father went downstairs to check it out--duh, Kinyua was cleaning out a canister and there were no signs of human remains. Kinyua's roommate, Kujoe Bonsafo Agyei-Kodie, was reported missing Friday. Although detectives have not positively identified the body, police say they have a strong suspicion it's the missing man since he went for a run but never returned.  As a result, the police department was able to get a search and seizure warrant and found body parts in the home. Body parts were also found in a nearby dumpster. Scary!

Basically, people are saying that in each zombified situation, the criminals were on this new party raver drug called "Satan's Bath Salts"

"CDC does not know of a virus or condition that would reanimate the dead (or one that would present zombie-like symptoms)."

~David Daigle, spokesman for Center For Disease Control and Prevention,

I know we're all wishing for a zombie apocalypse, but this is just sad and I don't know if we are all ready for something like that! If it does happen and it's the running zombies...good luck to us all!
