Without them we’d all be DOOMED, I tell you, DOOMED! Here’s a list of my favorites. Mr. Diehl, from The Children of [...]
happy friday the 13th! because i’m a giant dufus, i forgot to plan ahead and write some new content for this super-special holiday… so instead, here are a few links to some of our old friday the 13th related posts that don’t suck too much! The Fashion of Camp Crystal Lake Part 1 The Fashion [...]
the idea of store-specific pre-order incentives for games usually annoys me and i don’t think i’ve ever been influenced to buy a game based on them — until now. i didn’t have an overwhelming interest in NAUGHTY BEAR (coming soon to ps3 and xbox360), although i have to admit the idea of being a homicidal [...]

poster-iffic awesomeness from strange, foreign lands where they do things like eat mayonnaise on their french fries, brew good beer, smoke inside restaurants, wear clothes with wacky names like “lederhosen” and produce awesome flicks like [REC] … The Birds (Czechoslovakia) Dawn of the Dead (Germany) Carrie (Turkey) Carrie (Spain) The Exorcist (Turkey) The Howling (Belgium) [...]
saw this while out shopping for an upcoming halloween party… is this really the best jason costume available to today’s youth?
a few weeks ago i defiled the images of some classic horror icons using the nintendo dsi’s photo manipulation tools. well, i got bored and took a crack at a few more…
