Sars Wars – Big Trouble in Bangkok

Love is the international language. So are Zombies.




Vampire a Go-Go – Victor Gischler

Vampire a Go-Go – Victor Gischler

Vampire a Go-Go, by Victor Gischler was as ridiculously awesome as his last novel, Go-Go Girls of the Apocalypse. As you may have guessed from the titles, Gishler does not write serious novels. In fact, he’s kind of like the Tarantino of horror fiction, and it makes me very happy. He has written a handful [...]




Carrion Comfort – Dan Simmons

Carrion Comfort – Dan Simmons

                I realize that I am late to the party when it comes to Carrion Comfort by Dan Simmons. To be perfectly honest, I am 20 years late to the party, and the edition I picked up is the special anniversary re-issue. Be that as it may, Carrion Comfort is an epic novel, both in scope [...]

Pre-Release Reviews: Low Budget Pictures drops 2 new films into our lap-Geek War & Filthy McNasty 4

Awhile back, we posted an interview with director Chris Seaver and he mentioned a couple of his films that were around the bend. Well, that day has arrived.




Who is the MIDNIGHT SKATER?

Who is the MIDNIGHT SKATER?

A blood-splattered, punk rock fueled romp celebrating zombies, dick jokes, serial murder, and skate boarding.

Frankenhooker (1990, Levins-Henenlotter)

Greetings, readers. The issue of remakes is a big one in the horror community at the moment, particularly with the remake/reimagining/rewhatever of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET coming out tomorrow.

Trick ‘r Treat: Tales of Mayhem, Mystery, and Mischief- Video Book Review

Trick ‘r Treat: Tales of Mayhem, Mystery, and Mischief- Video Book Review

I know what you’re thinking.  “A video book review?  Is that really necessary?” Yes, yes it is.  “Trick ‘r Treat: Tales of Mayhem, Mystery, and Mischief”  is a companion book to the movie “Trick R Treat” and is one the most unique books this horror fan has ever had the pleasure of purchasing.  Check the [...]




Blockade Billy – Stephen King

Blockade Billy – Stephen King

Let me start this review with two clarifications. The first is that Blockade Billy by Stephen King isn’t technically a novel. It is a novella, but seeing as how it is new Stephen King, and a limited edition press run, I feel that it is more than adequate to be reviewed on the site. If [...]

Bits and Bytes Video Game Review- “Hysteria Project”

Bits and Bytes Video Game Review- “Hysteria Project”

“In “HYSTERIA PROJECT”, YOU are the hero!” The year was 1993.  The Toronto Blue Jays won the World Series, “Jason Goes to Hell” was scaring horror fans at the movies, and a video game by the name of “Night Trap” was causing a shit storm at meetings of the joint Senate Judiciary and Government Affairs [...]




Frankenfish (2004, Bayou Films Inc.)

Frankenfish (2004, Bayou Films Inc.)

Greetings, readers. I think everyone here, or at least viewers of American Cable television, will be familiar with the Sci-Fi Channel, or as it has recently been redubbed, the SyFy Channel. This change has caused a lot of enmity, which I shan’t be commenting on here. No, readers, what I would like to talk about [...]




The Mall of Cthulhu – Seamus Cooper

The Mall of Cthulhu – Seamus Cooper

                The Mall of Cthulhu by Seamus Cooper was a fun read, very light and fast paced. Cooper, a pen name for Brendan Halpin, is a talented writer, and has created a fantastic first novel. The Mall of Cthulhu is half homage, and half satire, poking fun at some of the more ridiculous aspects of Lovecraft’s [...]




Hideous! (1997, Full Moon Pictures)

Hideous! (1997, Full Moon Pictures)

Greetings, readers. When you hear the name Charles Band and Full Moon Pictures, certain films might spring to mind. PUPPET MASTER, most certainly. DOLL MAN or DEMONIC TOYS perhaps. Maybe even TRANCERS, CRASH AND BURN, or GHOULIES come to mind. For me, the first film I think of is this little number. You see, when [...]




The Gates – John Connolly

The Gates – John Connolly

Take two parts Douglas Adams, one part Neil Gaiman, and one part H.P. Lovecraft, then toss them in a blender. What would most likely come out would be The Gates, by John Connolly.  Connolly began his career in the Detective fiction genre, with the character Charlie Parker, and from there he has begun to expand [...]
