I got this really great box set of cheesy old movies . . . I think my brother got them for us for Christmas one year. They are called “Fright Night Classics” and the set is comprised of 8 classic horror DVDs including : God Told Me To, The Hatchet Murders, Pieces, Don’t Look in the Basement, Silent Night, Bloody Night, The House by the Cemetery, Lady Frankenstein and The Thirsty Dead.

So far I have watched two of them and I have really enjoyed them. One I have a review for up on the sight, Don’t Look in the Basement. The other I watched was God Told Me To - but that was one wacky flick. I have to watch it again to do a review on that one. It was just far out man . . .

If you see the set, pick it up. It is good for an octet of horror viewing fun!

This Friday is the opening of SLiTHER. This will be one that I will be out to see right away. Looks like it has just the right amount of cheese to make a real connoisseur the genre extremely happy.

I know that I have been fooled before, but hopefully not this time. I am holding out great hope for this little gem.

I mean, giant alien slugs, what could be better???!!

SLiTHER

I just got back from seeing V for Vendetta and I just have to say that it was one of the best movies I have seen in quite a while.

It both terrified and inspired me. With everything going on in America today it may be a bit of a wake up call for some.

Look for my review soon. I think I need to soak it in for a bit before I review it. Maybe even see it again . . .

But in case you don’t already know, I recommend you see it . . .

Not sure what the theme is for tomorrow’s lineup on SciFi . . . to check it out click the link below:

mixed bag o’ tricks

. . . any ideas?

Although something interesting is at 3am they will be showing Blood Dolls. That was a good flick, if you’re up be sure to catch it or just record it on the good ole dvr!

One of my favorite Twighlight Zone episodes is on SciFi tomorrow night - or should I say Monday morning? To Serve Man. Just remember, things aren’t always as they seem . . .

Oddly enough, I am really excited about this film. I am not sure why but I am waiting with baited breath for the March 31st release date. Click on the link below to see trailers for the film:

Good stuff!

I watched the first installment of the SciFi Originals miniseries The Triangle tonight. I have all three installments on my DVR. The first one sets up the story nicely. I’ll wait to do my review after watching all three, but I have to say after seeing the first installment I am actually intrigued . . . not to mention a bit impressed.

Here is another interview with Wes Craven about the new The Hills Have Eyes remake:

. . . could the old guy be going soft on us? Actually the Vegas show sounds kinda neat . . .

Oh boy, here it comes . . .

During the previews for the remake of The Hills Have Eyes, there was a trailer for Damien: The Omen remake. How perfect - it will be released on 06/06/06.

It was funny because as soon as I saw the dog, I knew what was coming next!

These remakes have been great and all, but can’t we get a little originality here? Okay Rob Zombie, when is your next flick coming out??? Or even M.Knight???

But through all my complaining, who will be in line to see the remake . . . me of course. And I know if we stop watching they will stop making but I just can’t help myself!

. . . but is the film industry doomed to just repeating itself?

SciFi interviewed Wes Craven on The Hills Have Eyes remake. It’s pretty interesting, to see more click the link below:

I have to remember to set my DVR to catch the SciFi miniseries “The Triangle” parts I, II and III will air on Sunday!

I meant to catch it the first time it was on but missed it. . .

Looks like a full day of legend type creatures with films like Sabretooth, Gargoyles: Wings of Darkness and of course the SciFi Originals debut of Minotaur . . . for the complete line up click the link below:

Hellboy 2 now has a working title, Golden Army . . .

Okay, so the re-make of The Hills Have Eyes will be in theatres March 10 and of course I had to go out and get the original version. We actually were able to get the original 2-disc set and not the re-release which does not have all of the cool special features on it. Haven’t watched it yet but probably will tonight.

I am really excited to see Ted Levine in the film as I can never forget his performance as Buffalo Bill in The Silence of the Lambs! Everytime I see him on Monk I just freak out imagining him saying “It rubs the lotion on its skin . . . ”

Hopefully I will be able to see the remake in theatres this weekend.

Next Saturday at 9 the SciFi Orignals film Minotour - this one looks kinda interesting. Bet you there will be a whole heck of a lot of cheesy effects!

Looks like the third installment in the Resident Evil franchise will begin shooting in May!
