Rob Zombie did a great interview regarding his upcoming “remake” of Halloween.

Here’s how he answered the question that everybody wants to know the answer to :

QUESTION: Can you please clarify what you mean when you say you are “not making a sequel” and that your Halloween will be a “re-imagining” of the series? Isn’t that just another word for “remake”? (from Cole in Chicago)
RZ: Well, sort of. I am basically making a prequel and a semi-remake of the first film all in one. So really in theory there will be more original content than remake content. That’s why I don’t like the word “remake.”

Good Answer!!! Okay so if you want to check out the rest of the interview just click on the link below.

Go Zombie!

Stacilayne from Horror.com does an interesting side by side comparison of scenes from the original and the remake - if you haven’t seen either I wouldn’t recommend clicking this link - The Omen vs The Omen

Good stuff!

According to Horror.com contributor stacilayne -

The following (Masters of Horror: Season II) episodes have been confirmed:

Family, directed by John Landis and written by Brent Hanley, tells the story of a young married couple (Meredith Monroe and Matt Keeslar) that moves into a new home in a new city and finds out that their neighbor (George Wendt) is not what he seems.

Pelts, directed by Dario Argento, written by Matt Venne, adapted from F. Paul Wilson’s short-story, is an erotic tale about stolen raccoon pelts that violently turn against those that covet them in this Giallo-style adaptation of F. Paul Wilson’s short story. Meatloaf and John Saxon star.

The Damned Thing, directed by Tobe Hooper, inspired by Ambrose Bierce’s classic short-story and written by Richard Christian Matheson, is the apocalyptic tale of a monstrous force that devastates Sheriff Kevin Reddle’s family and his small Texas town. Sean Patrick Flanery, Marisa Coughlan and Ted Raimi star.

Pro-Life, directed by John Carpenter, written by Drew McWeeny & Scott Swan, tells the story of a young girl trapped inside a clinic, that discovers the only thing more dangerous than her pursuers is the demonic secret that she carries within her. Ron Perlman, and Caitlin Wachs star.

The V Word, a vampire film directed by Ernest Dickerson and written by Mick Garris, reveals the punishment visited upon two teenage boys who make the very poor decision to break into a mortuary. Michael Ironside stars.

Sounds Like, directed and written by Brad Anderson, adapted from a short-story by Mike O’Driscoll, tells the story of Larry Pearce - an ordinary man blessed with a gift of extraordinary supernatural hearing that drives him to the brink of insanity and forces him to take violent action to silence the horrific cacophony in his head.

The Screwfly Solution, directed by Joe Dante, written by Sam Hamm and adapted from the Raccoona Sheldon short-story, is about a nightmare virus infecting our nation, transforming men into psychotic killers who attack every woman that crosses their paths.

Valerie On The Stairs, directed and written by Mick Garris from a Clive Barker original screen story, tells the tale of a novelist who discovers there are fates worse than literary anonymity in this sexually-charged tale of terror.

We Scream For Ice Cream, directed by Tom Holland from David J. Schow’s adaptation of John Farris’ short-story, depicts a local ice cream man who, in this case, is turning sweet-toothed children against their parents.

The Black Cat, directed by Stuart Gordon and written by Gordon & Dennis Paoli, has the great Poe, out of ideas and short on cash, tormented by a black cat that will either destroy his life or inspire him to write one of his most famous stories.

I wait with baited breath . . .

I read an interesting article on Bloody-Disgusting regarding an interesting horror compilation in the works - Masters of Italian Horror

I know that I for one will be taking a gander at this! I love my Italian horror!

Well I guess I am a bit behind the ball on this one folks, but I didn’t know till now -

George Lutz ( the infamous owner and 28 day occupant of the Amityville house) died of a heart attack on May 8 2006.

Sorry to see you go George!

Right now we are getting into the conclusion of Thir13en Ghosts on SciFi. Next up is Freddy Vs. Jason. Good TV viewing day if you ask me. Tonight at 9pm there will be a SciFi originals film called Boo - looks pretty interesting!

I saw another trailer for The Omen which is slated to open on 6/6/06. I can just say that the kid looks rather creepy and I cannot wait for this one. Although again, another remake.

Fingers crossed on this one!

When I went to see An American Haunting yesterday, I saw a trailer for a new movie coming out starring Hilary Swank. It’s called The Reaping and looks like it has the potential to be quite good.

Here’s the synopsis of the plot I found on IMDB:

Hilary Swank plays a former Christian missionary who lost her faith after her family was tragically killed, and has since become a world-renowned expert in disproving religious phenomena. But when she investigates a small Louisiana town that is suffering from what appear to be the Biblical plagues, she realizes that science cannot explain what is happening and she must regain her faith to combat dark forces threatening the community.

On Sci-fi they are showing a Ghost Hunters Marathon! It started at 9am and goes straight through till 10pm.

If you love Ghost Hunters then you should definitely be watching Sci-fi right now!

Okay, so I was visiting some friends down in St. Augustine, FL this week and for those of you who don’t know, St. Augustine is rumored to be a very haunted town.

Unfortuntately I was unable to go on any of the ghost tours or anything this time around due to some time constraints but while we were at the condo a freaky thing did happen . . .

So we were sleeping in the living room of their rented condo and before I went to sleep I turned off this light above the stove that they had on (you had to turn a little knob on the top of the hood - it wasn’t all that easy to turn off). All of a sudden about 15 minutes later the light just turned back on by itself. Everyone else was sleeping. It was a bit freaky.

I didn’t go the whole route of turning it back on again and seeing what happened though b/c I had myself freaked out enough and I figured that if some ghost really wanted the light on, who am I to stop them?

Here is a post that was on www.gorezone.net about the remake of the sequel to The Hills Have Eyes:

THE HILLS HAVE EYES remake 2: Wes Craven revealed that he and son Jonathan will be writing the sequel to Alexandre Aja’s THE HILLS HAVE EYES remake. “We want to continue the story of the miners,” Craven tells us. “This time, a group of National Guard screw-ups come face to face with the mutants on their last day of training in the desert. We will take the audience underground [into the mines] as well. The studio, Fox Searchlight, wants the sequel out a year to the day after the last one, so we have to deliver our script in a matter of weeks.”

I predict that the mutants will be just amazing. I just love mutants!

“Bring the dog, I love animals. I’m a great cook.”
-Alex Forrest - Fatal Attraction (1987)

“I bet you can squeal like a pig.”
- Mountain Man - Deliverance (1972)

” I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I’m all out of bubble gum.”
- Nada - They Live (1988)

“Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to.”
- Dolores Claiborne - Dolores Claiborne (1995)

“We all go slightly mad sometimes.”
-Norman Bates / Psycho (1960)

“Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape.”
-Taylor / Planet of the Apes (1968)

“Your mother’s in here with us, Karras. Would you like to leave a message? I’ll see that she gets it.”
-Regan MacNeil/Satan / The Exorcist (1973)

“The Greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.”
-Verbal Kint / The Usual Suspects (1995)

I have got this little goodie recorded on my Replay TV. I am starting to get a little worried though as I am seeing blocks on my screen meaning that my cable was not cooperating at the time this movie was recorded. It could just lock up on me but I hope not. This looks like a good movie, based on Stephen King’s short story and directed by Tobe Hooper. This came out in 1995.

Wish me luck!

We are in for a long day of beast related horror TV from SciFi today. Starting with Jaws 2 through Jaws: The Revenge then moving onto Watchers 2 through Watchers: Reborn and ending this frenzy of fear with Rottweiler it is sure to be a day you will be able to sink your teeth into . . .

Sharks and dogs and more dogs . . . oh my

Oh, I got to get me one of these . . .

This toy created by McFarlane Toys based on the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror IV entitled “The Devil and Homer Simpson”. It is actually a crank action, donut feeding machine which feeds Homer donut after donut.

Looks pretty cool . . . mmmmm. . . . donuts . . .

McFarlane Toys recently took over Simpson toy production from Playmate Toys.

There is an “A Haunting” marathon going on right now on the Discovery Channel. Already this evening I watched one on the haunting of a farmhouse in my old hometown of Seymour, CT. Kinda freaky! I didn’t even know it was there. Makes me want to go and visit the old stomping grounds and see if I can’t find it!

Connecticut in general is beleived to be a very haunted place. The demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren have lived there for years. Don’t know if it still is, but they used to have a museum of haunted things on their property in Monroe CT that you could tour.

I never did go to their house, but I did go to a lecture they gave once and they seem very genuine!

Hooray - this weekend is opening weekend for Silent Hill in theatres nationwide! I am seriously stoked for the release of this film which is based on the popular video game of the same name. Looks like it will be really good.

I will definitely be out to see it sometime this weekend!

Just saw a somewhat disturbing news article on bloody-disgusting.com that the Robert Rodriquez’s segment of Grind House has been possibly shut down for good? Not sure what to think of that little tid-bit right now, but that would be sad as it might mean a later (if at all) release date for the film.

Hmmmmm . . . or is this just some clever marketing scheme? It’s terrible, I feel so jaded even mentioning that. Damn you marketers . . .

The new horror flick, Grind House due out December 2006 will feature two 75 minute movies. ONe by Quentin Tarantino which will be a slasher and one by Robert Rodriguez which will be a zombie based film.

With involvement from actors like Tom Savini, Danny Trejo, Rose McGowan and Lucy Lawless this seems like it should be quite interesting . . . can’t wait to see it!

Looks like a day full of fantasy for SciFi on Sunday. Starting with 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea then sliding into some mini-series it looks like a great line up for anyone into their fantasy movies!

Check out the line up through the link below:

SciFi Fantasy Sunday

SciFi is airing some teen horror movies tomorrow during the day. Gems like Final Destination, Cherry Falls and Jeepers Creepert (I and II). They also have one on called How to Make a Monster but I am not sure what that is all about. Guess I’ll have to watch it and see . . .

I have heard alot about this movie but have never actually seen it. Well, now I am watching it - we picked it up for like $7 at Circuit City.

Looks pretty interesting so far.

I am currently watching Friday the 13th VII: The New Blood. I have it on my DVR, it was on one of the movie channels tonight. Kane Hodder plays Jason Voorhees in this installment. He has much broader shoulders than I remembered . . .

I haven’t seen this one in years. It is in my Netflix rotation and I just popped it in for a viewing - so far, so good! It’s all I remembered and more . . . let you know more once I finish watching it!

Looks like the fourth installment in the Hannibal the Cannibal series is coming to fruition. Check out the link to blackfilm.com to see the details.

Looking to buy 40 acres of land in Wisconsin that also happens to have been the home to one of America’s most notorious serial killers, Ed Gein? You won’t be able to get it on eBay.

eBay has just pulled an auction off their site for Ed Gein’s home in Wisconsin because it conflicts with their “no murder memorabilia” policy.

According to the seller, he did receive one offer that was far below the asking price of $250,000.

I don’t know what the real estate market is like in Wisconsin, but I’m not sure this land is worth $250,000. It seems like alot of money for land that was once owned by a serial killer – the house he lived in is not even there anymore! Now if the house was still there, it might be a different story …

Okay, so I have recenlty found that I am a big Lucio Fulci fan. Over the last couple of days I have watched two of his films ( Zombi 2 and The House by the Cemetery) and I have really enjoyed them immensely. It’s funny too because I had Zombi 2 from Netflix sitting around for a while and just watched it last night. I just happened to pick up The House by the Cemetary today out of that Fright Night Classics set I have. Isn’t that just a little wierd?!

At any rate, I found his Fulci bio on IMDB to be quite interesting. To learn more about Fulci click the link below:

Lucio Fulci

It’s too bad that we lost him in the mid-90’s he was quite obviously very talented and creative. Time to find more Fulci for me . . .

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:

SLiTHER trailers

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:

Interview with Wes Craven

. . . 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:

Craven on The Hills

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:

Day of the Legends

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

To read more clidk on the link below:

Hellboy 2: 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.

The Hills Have Eyes

Tomorrow looks to be all about the living dead, raising hell and we’ll throw in some blood hungry, genetically altered bats for good measure!

Click on the link below to see the full schedule . . . hey how many Hellraisers are there anyway????

SciFi Scheduling

Tonight at 9 the SciFi Originals film Raptor makes it’s debut. Corbin Bernsen is starring . . . what could be finer?

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! I really enjoyed both Resident Evil: Ground Zero and Resident Evil: Nemesis . . . hopefully Resident Evil: Afterlife will keep up the good work. Click the link below to read an interview with Milla Jovovich on the upcoming film :

Resident Evil 3 : Afterlife

Looks like Scifi is airing one of my favorite episodes of The Twilight Zone entitled Jess-Belle. I must have seen this one about a million times, but it still holds a special place in my heart . . . talk about doing anything for love!

It’s on Monday February 13th at 1:00am, catch it if you can.

Question: . . . What is the theme of tomorrow’s movie line up on Sci-Fi?

Starting with Shark Attack 2 and ending with the SciFi premier of Earth vs. Spider the programming for this Sunday definitely has teeth!

To see the complete line up click the link below:

SciFi takes a bite out of Sunday

Hooray, it is official. There will be a second season of the awesome Showtime original series - Masters of Horror. Click the link below for more info straight from the horses’ mouths:

Season Two

I have so enjoyed this first season. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that the second season can at least stay at the same level. Don’t get me wrong, I am hoping for it to surpass this season, but this season has just been sooo damn good!

So I was traveling last week and I missed Masters of Horror. Guess I will have to double up this weekend! Nothing wrong with that other than the fact that I am having withdrawls from having missed it last weekend.

Oh woe is me . . .

I missed Pick Me Up directed by Larry Cohen and written by David Schow.

This week is Haeckel’s Tale story by Clive Barker, written by Mick Garris and directed by John McNaughton.

But fear not, I will be back on schedule this weekend.

Okay, so Friday night I had too much recording on my DVR so I couldn’t record the Masters of Horor episode. No problem thought I, I will just record it Satruday night and watch it Sunday. . .

Imagine my horror and surprise when I realized that the silly boxing match ran over by about 1/2 hour and I only had 1/2 of my beloved Masters of Horror recorded. No worries though, it hopefully recorded last night and I will be able to view it tonight.

I am seriously having withdrawls I tell you, withdrawls!!!!

AAGGGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Tonight don’t forget to watch the Masters of Horror episode titled Fair Haired Child directed by William Malone of FeardotCom and House on Haunted Hill (1999) fame.

Check out the link below to learn more about Showtime’s amazing horror series:

Masters of Horror

I went and saw the movie Wolf Creek last night. I can only say - Wow - Aside from one or two things that made me go HMM?? it was a very, very good movie. But I didn’t know anything about it when I went to see it - other than the fact that it was based on actual events.

See more about the movie Wolf Creek by visiting the official movie website. I will also have a review up hopefully by tonight. But suffice it to say that I enjoyed it very much!

. . .Stephen King that is . . .

According to the website cemeterydance.com our beloved Mr. King will be doing an eight part series entitled “Nightmares and Dreamscapes: From the Stories of Stephen King.” Sounds like an awesome series. Course I could be a little biased since King is one of my alltime favorite horror writers. It is slated for debut on TNT next June!

Cemeterydance.com and it’s section titled “Stephen King News” is a great website for all things Stephen King. There is also a section on the site called “Graven Images” that has some really macabre yet stunningly beautiful artwork.

Good stuff!

Wow, I have really been lax. There have been soooo many great things on TV over the last few days and I haven’t even made one post! Sorry!

I have been very busy watching the New Years Twighlight Zone Marathon on SciFi. It’s kind of a New Years Eve tradition in our household to eat Chinese and watch the old marathon before the ball drops. This year my New Year’s Eve was a little bit different but some things never change as the marathon was still on. Back to old traditions next year I hope!!!

I also have Masters of Horror: Horror Feast - a dinner/commentary with Mick Garris, Joe Dante, Stuart Gordon and John Landis - on my DVR.

Not to mention a few Mediums that are on the DVR that I have to get to.

I did see that there will be a new SciFi Original next weekend Caved In: Prehistoric Terror - is there anything more terrifying than a giant rhinoceros beetle? Be still my beating heart . . .

SciFi Originals

Happy Holidays to all you FearSceners! Hope that Santa brings you all your favorite holiday horror fare.

I wanted to take a moment to thank all of you loyal FearSceners who have been checking out and adding input to the site throughout our first year. It has meant alot and we hope to keep going strong for years to come.

As for me, I am looking forward to lots of new horror flicks for Christmas to review throughout the year. Usually the day of and after Christmas at my house is full of film watching because everyone knows that there’s nothing I like better than good scare!

So whatever your particular beliefs and traditions at this time of year, here’s to a very happy and healthy holiday season and a wonderful and prosperous new year to come.

milliefs

Looks like some pretty good movies are set for this weekend. The SciFi premier of “Shallow Ground” debuts on Saturday ngiht. Looks pretty good.

“The Haunted” looks pretty interesting too. I will have to record them for later viewing if nothing else. See the complete lineup for Saturday below:

Saturday’s Fright Fest

There is also an interestingly eclectic mixed bag of goodies available on Sunday . . .

Sunday’s Mixed Bag of Tricks

Click the link below for a schedule.

SciFi Cheese Fest

For all of those who thought you missed it, the second in the series is airing again tonight at 11:00pm on Showtime High Definition . . . if you get it.

This episode entitled, Dreams in the Witch House and directed by Stuart Gordon originally aired last night, but I missed it. Thankfully, I will be able to catch it tonight! If not, I would have had to have killed my husband because he told me it was on Saturday nights, not Friday nights . . . he is saved by a thread!

To see the episode guide check out the link below:

Masters of Horror

Saw II is coming out in theatres this weekend so we can all guess where I will be. I plan to see it on Saturday so hopefully I will have a review up by Sunday. I really enjoyed the original but can Saw II make the cut? We’ll see!

Take a look at the offical site: SAW II in theatres October 28, 2005

Oh yes, there will be blood . . .

Tomorrow looks like Scifi is into all things that slither and crawl and creep into our nightmares! Check out the schedule of movies for tomorrow on Scifi!

Creepy Crawlies all day and night!

Tonight, Scifi premiers Lost Voyage starring Lance Henrickson and Judd Nelson (two of my cheesy horror movie faves). It’s a movie about the SS Corona Queen which was lost at sea twenty five years ago. It has suddenly reappeared and apparently seven people go on board in search of the “truth” of what happened.

Looks like it has potential - we’ll see!

Scifi Originals: Lost Voyage

A couple of episodes into the second season and I am still officially loving Medium. There is something endearing and believable about Arquette’s performance as Alison Dubois. For those of you who haven’t checked it out you should do so.

Monday nights on NBC at 10:00pm

Medium

Is nothing sacred? Here’s another in the laundry list of remakes of great 70’s horror flicks. Oh Hollywood, this is getting old!

I saw this on IMDB and after seeing some of the other remakes of the classics I again, hope for the best but expect the worst. We’ll see . . .

Race with the Devil 2006

Originality, the lost artform . . .

I was recently contacted by Dave Gebroe, the director of an independent film called Zombie Honeymoon. It looks like a killer zombie flick. Keep your eyes open for an interview and review of the soon to be released film coming soon. For now, take a look at the trailer by clicking the link below. Also, take a gander at the entire site - it’s quite nice!

Zombie Honeymoon Trailer

zombiehoneymoon.com

If you are in the mood for something a little different, check out The Machinist with an emaciated Christian Bale. I just watched it last night and I am still a little blown away by it. I couldn’t stop staring at Bale’s bony little body! It was quite freakish.

Look for my review soon. But I wanted to get out the word right away. See this film it is very, very good!

The Machinist

Right now on my TV is a a Twilight Zone episode called “The Little People”. Oh how I love The Twilight Zone!

Also today, Sci-Fi will be broadcasting Wishmaster 3: Beyond the Gates of Hell and Wishmaster 4: The Prophecy Fulfilled. I haven’t actually watched these in their entirety yet. I have a feeling that they may be a bit lacking for me as they don’t have my favorite character from Wishmaster and Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies, Andrew Divoff, as the evil Djinn. I always thought that might be why the Wishmaster series didn’t get the amount of attention it deserved. The original and sequel are actually pretty good. Thanks in the most part to Divoff. Hmmm. . .

Woo-hoo a full day of blood sucking fun on Sci-Fi today starting out with Salem’s Lot which is on right now! To check out today’s full line up click on the link below:

Today on Sci-Fi

Don’t forget to watch the Sci-Fi Pictures’ Original - Bloodsuckers - on at 9pm and replayed at 1am!

Sci-fi Originals are like little tiny train wrecks, I just can’t look away!

The Devil’s Rejects Trailer

I will be reviewing this one soon!

I just finished reading Gerald’s Game. What a good book. Towards the end I had a real problem putting it down at all! If you are a fan of Stephen King books, it is a must have for your library.

Buy Gerald’s Game from Amazon.com

Okay, so I just happen to be reading Gerald’s Game by Stephen King right now and I also just finished watching Wrong Turn.

I was doing my review for Wrong Turn and it dawned on me that I recognized the name of Eliza Dushku’s character Jessie Burlingame. I kept wondering why I recognized it then I thought back to the scene in the cabin where Jessie is tied to the bedpost with barbed wire and it all just clicked.

Jessie Burlingame in the book is handcuffed to the bedpost because of Gerald’s Game and Jessie Burlingame in the movie is tied to the bedpost by a cannibalistic freakshow. . .

Coincidence?

By the by, I am almost 1/2 way through with Gerald’s Game - very good book!

Right now on my TV . . . Crocodile II: Death Roll.

Sci-fi has a great line up today of reptile movies: King Cobra, Silent Predators, Raptor Island.

Also some hairy favorites: Sasquatch, Sabretooth and premiering tonight: The new Sci-fi Original Movie - Attack of the Sabretooth! I’m sure it will be just as bad as the rest, but still good cheesy entertainment!

Click the link below for Sci-fi’s line up:

Sci-Fi Channel has the Twilight Zone Independence Day Marathon all day and into the night.

Nightmare as a Child is playing now. Up next . . . A Most Unusual Camera. That is a good one!

If you are a lover of Twilight Zone the TV show like I am be sure to check out the Twilight Zone marathon on Sci-Fi starting tonight at 11:00pm. It’s running all day on the 4th. Click the link below to learn more.

Twilight Zone Marathon on Sci-Fi!

I am a little disappointed because I didn’t see my favorite episode “The Howling Man” listed. They probably save that one for the New Year’s Eve Marathon!

Just as an aside - I have this little black bear with stars on it that plays the Twilight Zone tune when you press his little belly. He is a TV Tune Bear. I will be sure to have him by my side as I watch! Well, actually my husband probably will since I bought the bear as a gift for him a few years ago. . . Bear Hog!

Right now on my TV the third installment of the Hannibal Lecter series is playing on Sci-Fi. Not sure that I like the fact that Jodi Foster didn’t come back to play Clarice Starling, but it is a good flick none the less.

There are a ton of great movies on today and as a matter of fact they are replaying Snakehead Terror tonight at 9pm so if you didn’t get to see it the first time around, be sure to check it out tonight.

Stephen Spielberg has been out doing interviews for his new movie, War of the Worlds, and he has been referring to it as a “science fiction / horror movie”.

While I have yet to see the movie, I highly doubt that most horror fans would consider War of the Worlds a horror movie – science fiction definitely, but horror - I Don’t Think So.

Read the reviews, see the movie, and let me know what you think.

“Godfather of Gore still making films”

Howdy Horror Fans!

Horror Movies all day again today on Sci-Fi! Right now Night of the Living Dead III is on. This is a sick little monkey of a movie! If you have never seen it, turn it on quick we’re 12 minutes in!

Right now I am taping Dolly Dearest which is playing on Sci-Fi. It must be day of the dolls or something. Who doesn’t love a good demonic doll movie? I just finished watching Blood Dolls. What a hoot!

The Ken and Barbie of seiral killers are to be the subject of a new film which will chronicle “the life and crimes of Canada’s worst serial killing couple.” To learn more click the link below:

DEADLY

Okay, so I got caught up in it . . . I had to know “what they are doing today” . . . I hate to admit it, but yes I watched it. Hit Me Baby One More Time . . . what you may ask is that doing on a blog all about horror movies? Well, if you have to ask you didn’t watch it.

I want that 60 minutes of my life back. Of course, I am sure that next week I will be saying the same thing. I can’t pass up knowing what The Knack has been doing, can I? If I can, please tell me . . . save me from myself!

After watching Snakehead Terror, the sci-fi original film, I decided to do a little research on the fish. Here’s something interesting that I found!

Reel life Snakehead Terror!

Freaky, huh?!

Right now I am watching Monster! on the Sci-Fi Memorial Day Movie Marathon. This marathon has been great!

Yesterday I wasn’t home to watch Snakehead Terror, so I used my ReplayTV to record the movie and I watched it later. The ReplayTV is a must have for any horror fan. To learn more about this amazing piece of technology click the link below.

Don’t forget to watch Sci-Fi this weekend. The whole weekend is full of great movies like “The Twilight Zone: The Movie’, “Fangs”, “Snakehead Terror” and “Dinocroc”. A lot of really fun Sci-Fi originals and some old favorites!

Good Stuff!

I watched the season finale of Medium last night. If you haven’t caught the series, it is really great. It is loosely based on a real life psychic (Allison Dubois played by Patricia Arquette) and her work solving crimes.

It is superbly written and acted, the characters are developed so well. It is the first series I have watched in a while where I have been totally addicted from the first show. I cannot wait till the next season starts.

I miss it already…

Legendary scaremeister Sid Haig talked to Fangoria about his 2nd upcoming part II (I mean other than The Devil’s Rejects).

House of the Dead II: Dead Aim

There is just something scary about Sid, even the name Sid Haig, just has horror movie master written all over it. Despite the actor’s inability to watch the original House of the Dead, I think I will definitely have to check it out. If any of you out there have seen it, let me know.

Sci-Fi is now showing Poltergeist…they’re here….

This film still gives me the creeps. Especially when you think of all the wierd things that have gone on on the sets of the movies!

A frighteningly bad sequel…

Hello horror fans!

Right now I am watching Evil Dead II. Forgot how much I like the Evil Dead movies. I actually have the collector’s edition tin and everything. I got it a few years ago for Christmas.

Isn’t that special?

According to IMDB there is going to be a remake of The Entity. Oh no, here we go again! It is to be directed by Hideo Nakata (Ringu, The Ring 2).

Hmmmm…I am not sure how this will turn out, but I am the eternal optimist…maybe this time the ending will be better?

This was a pretty cool quiz. I got a 7/10. My husband is into computers…still not sure about him…

Who can resist? Even if I didn’t want to see House of Wax, I would watch it to see Paris Hilton die! House of Wax comes to theatres tomorrow. You can bet I’ll be seeing it soon. I have a love/hate relationship with Paris…well, I love Tinkerbell and hate Paris. Anyway it will be fun to see her die (in the movie anyway…I think Tink would be lost without her! ) Check out the interview with Joel Silver and Juame Serra regarding House of Wax.

This just warmed my heart! Kudos to Matt Schwartz and Brian Knight for organizing such great auctions for Devon Doherty and her family.

System of a Down’s guitarist DARON MALAKIAN has an interesting way to pass the time while on tour. Turns out he is a big horror movie buff. He’s got a point about George Romero’s Dawn of the Dead.

Check this out in an article at contactmusic.com where they interviewed Malakian.

Malakian: Horror Movies are vital for society.

Yep, using the free ticket was as easy as pie. Look for my review of The Amityville Horror remake soon!

I read about this on the IMDB recently…here is the link
Interview with George Lutz

Interesting stuff. I would’ve thought it might be the other way around?

I am going to use that free ticket today to see The Amityville Horror remake. Can’t wait!

Oh, I forgot to tell you, with The Amityville Horror Collection you also get a Hollywood Movie Money ticket good until May 8, 2005 for The Amityville Horror remake in theatres now!

I just picked up the Amityville Horror Collection. It’s a 4 disc set which includes The Amityville Horror, Amityville II: The Possession and Amityville 3-D. It also contains a 4th disc titled Amityville Confidential. This disc is pretty cool because it contains 2 History Channel specials on Amityville. I wouldn’t bother with the “For God’s Sake, Get Out” documentary on The Amityville Horror dvd. It was very lame and just contained alot of diarreah of the mouth from James Brolin and Margot Kidder. I couldn’t even sit through it! Would’ve been better titled “For God’s Sake, Don’t Watch”…
