LUZ: THE FLOWER OF EVIL

THE SOUL COLLECTOR

New Funko Pops!

Funko just announced a few cool items. Still, not a huge collector of Funko but the McDonalds figures look fun. And as of writing this, the Funko web site is old out!

I guess Chucky in a can is some type of mystery package and already I'm not sold on the look. But fest your eyes below!!

Look at that Minnie and Mickey!! Now, these just might find its way into the Man Cave! And it also looks like Hocus Pocus will get another run this year although they seem to have sold out as well.

October 24 Casper will finally be immortalized in plastic! Now this one might have to sit in the Man Cave for sure!

And a new wave of Simpson's Tree House of Horror is on its way.

So are you looking to pick any of these up? Do you collect Funko? Let me know in the comments.

Suspiria Trailer

Amazon Studios dropped the first trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s remake of the cult classic thriller “Suspiria,” where Dakota Johnson portrays a dance student who unwittingly finds herself in the midst of a “suspicious” coven of witches at an academy abroad. Dario Argento directed the original 1977 supernatural horror film, which starred Jessica Harper.

Guadagnino, known for his intimate character features like “Call Me By Your Name,” is reuniting with Johnson and Tilda Swinton, who plays the elite school’s artistic director Madame Blanc, after working together on “A Bigger Splash.” He also worked with Swinton on “I Am Love.”

The cast also includes Chloe Grace Moretz, Mia Goth, Lutz Ebersdorf, and Jessica Harper. Radiohead lead singer Thom Yorke is composing the film’s score.

“Suspiria” will make its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival. Amazon Studios is opening the movie in New York and L.A. on Oct. 26, a week before it hits theaters nationwide on Nov. 2.

Check out the trailer and let me know what you think?

The Nun to hot for YouTube

The Nun add that was to hot for YouTube!

Because of the fear the six-second clip has incited in unsuspecting viewers, YouTube has notably taken the video down from the site. The preview, which was streaming before other videos would load on YouTube, displays a typical volume sign increasing in volume and then lowering all the way down when suddenly, the titular nun in full-horror mode appears and makes a blood-curdling scream.

One Twitter user issued a warning about the choice jump-scare in the video and cautioned viewers to turn down the volume “if you have anxiety or just straight up hate jumpscares.” The tweet received over 145,000 likes and 132,000 retweets.

According to its “violent and shocking content in ads” policy, YouTube strives “to avoid offending or shocking users with websites, or apps that are inappropriate for our ad network.” Examples of content considered violent or shocking include “gruesome imagery” and “promotions that are likely to shock or scare.”

Shocking factors in video ads concern items like “whether the video shows scenes containing violent and/or graphic imagery that can be shocking or disturbing to viewers” or “whether the violence contained in the video is realistic when posted in a dramatic context.”

Oh boy well here is the official add and its better anyway!

You won't be going home for Christmas!

Brinke Stevens

Helene Udy

Kaylee Williams

Synopsis:

Students attending a Christmas party at a sorority house with a sinister past are stalked by a bloodthirsty killer disguised as Mrs. Claus.

Mrs. Claus hit the film festival circuit earlier this year taking home a few awards will hit the small screen this winter. "Originally titled Stirring and penned by Troy Escamilla, Mrs. Claus is inspired by Escamilla’s favorite horror film, 1974’s Black Christmas and will focus a group of students attending a Christmas party at a sorority house with a sinister past who are stalked by a bloodthirsty killer.

Horror icon and Scream Queen Brinke Stevens is set to star in the film alongside Helene Udy who appeared in the classic 1981 slasher My Bloody Valentine and up and coming indie horror actress out of Chicago Kaylee Williams (Porkchop 3D). For some low budget Christmas flick, Mrs. Claus looks to fill the Creepmas bill later this year!

Breaking Full Moon Features News

Well, the E-Mail that Charles Band just sent out has fan boy's like me jumping for joy with anticipation.

"the really big deal this weekend is that Charlie will be making a special appearance to unveil what just might be the most EXCITING and IMPORTANT feature film development in recent Full Moon history...On Saturday, August 4th at 1:30 PM SHARP live at Flashback Weekend, Band will screen a sneak peek at an EXCLUSIVE highlight reel for the most mythical and talked about movie in our 30 year history. A long-in-the-vault stop-motion animation magnum opus begun by Band and FX wizard David Allen that was shelved after his death in 1999. That movie will FINALLY be completed and released early next year.

What is the film, you ask?

We're not saying another word. You'll have to BE at the show to find out!"

It's no secret that Band has been trying to get this done for years now, about a year ago he started talking about Primeval and found footage. He also mentioned that out of the 250 stop motion shot's that they needed to finish only 150 were done before Allen passed away from Cancer. As soon as I hear more I will be sure to post it!

Turning eighteen is going to be hell.

Director:

Stewart Sparke

Writer:

Paul Butler

Stars:

Lyndsey Craine

Michaela Longden

Lizzie Stanton

Synopsis:

Sophie's 18th birthday party becomes a bloodbath when six terrifying monsters descend upon her house, intent on devouring the party guests and killing anyone who tries to leave. As her school friends are torn apart and eaten, Sophie must rally a band of misfits and take up arms to send their party crashers back to hell. To survive the night, Sophie will face her destiny; monsters are real - and she's the only one who can stop them.

This movie looks batshit crazy and I like! Premiering at Freight Fest August 25 it is safe to say I'm looking forward to Book of Monsters hitting the States. Take note in the trailer the use of practical effects!

As soon as release info is sent out I will let you know in the meantime enjoy this wonderful trailer for Book of Monsters!

Halloween Trailer 2018

Ok, be honest what did you think? I'm still not sure what I think yet it looks good but something about it seems kind of silly. Only time will tell.

USA Today Post Halloween's First Look

Dang if the New Halloween mask does not look kick ass! The trailer drops Friday and the fan community is drooling in anticipation. So USA Today posted a first look and it has me jumping for joy. Have a look if you haven't already.

Slender Man

According to Variety ‘Slender Man’ is being Shopped to Other Studios while Sony and Producers Clash! Distribution rights for the upcoming horror movie are on the block because the film’s producers are having heated disagreements about the release strategy with Sony set to debut the film in August. Sony sees the film as a low-budget style release according to two insiders, while the producers have more confidence in the movie and are pushing for the picture to play on more screens. They also want a bigger marketing push, which will cost more money than Sony is willing to spend.

As for me, its the dark cloud over Slender Man that inspired two 12-year-olds to stab their friend Payton Leutner 19 times. Leutner survived, and the girls were institutionalized. Bill Weier, the father of one of the two girls who stabbed Leutner, has criticized the film as “extremely distasteful” and has said it is “popularizing a tragedy.” An online petition calling on the studio to pull the film from release has attracted more than 19,000 signatures.

Even though “Slender Man’s” plot is fictional and doesn’t reference the real-life stabbing it could be factoring into some of the release strategy disagreements. And I agree I have no desire to see this movie at all based on the events that took place I don't care if its the best film ever! How do you feel about this? Will you be heading to the big screen to watch?

Predator Day

In our first official look at Shane Black’s “explosive reinvention” of the franchise, Jacob Tremblay’s character messes around with some Predator technology, unintentionally piloting a Predator spaceship to certain doom here on Earth. From there, we catch up with a group of assassins, led by Boyd Holbrook, who go on a little hunt of their own. The Predator returns on September 14, 2018.

The Monster Squad team of Fred Dekker and Shane Black are back this year for another monster movie turning their attention to 20th Century Fox’s The Predator.

“From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.”

Not sold on the trailer so far, what are your thoughts? It is good to see that Hollywood finally gets that Halloween is the holiday we look forward to more than Christmas 😏

Dirtier. Hairier.

Welp, I guess I should not be surprised that we will get yet another Wolf Cop movie. The upcoming Blu-ray release of Lowell Dean's action thriller will release on July 3rd. Starring Leo Fafard, Amy Matysio, Jonathan Cherry, Laura Abramsen, and Yannick Bisson.

This time around A year has passed since the dark eclipse transformed hard-drinking Officer Lou Garou into the infamous lycanthrope crime-fighter. Although the evil that controlled Woodhaven was defeated, the community is far from returning to normal. A villainous entrepreneur (Yannick Bisson) is looking to open a new brewery and revive the local hockey team, but it's clear he has ulterior motives. With a new mayor (Kevin Smith) and the new chief of police (Amy Matysio), WolfCop has his work cut out for him when he has to save the town all over again.

Ok, wait a sec Kevin Smith is in this one so yeah I will give it a shot. Read up one part one here.

A Halloween treat bag of all the things that go bump in the night. From masked killers to scarecrows, witches, and tricksters. There’s a scare for everyone in this anthology of horror and the macabre from the creators of The Barn and Volumes of Blood.

In the vain of V/H/S, Creepshow, and Bodybags this Halloween we get another anthology to toss into the mix. 10/31 has not let much out of the "bag" just yet but they did surprise their fans with a trailer that dropped 9/18. 10/31 will give the viewer five interwoven tales of terror taking place on Halloween last year.

In the film, a videotape given to a group of teens by a sinister trick or treater turns Halloween into a wide-awake nightmare. Hmmmm how many teenagers even know what a VHS tape is or how to use it. And honestly how many homes still have a VCR? Anyway here is the trailer let me know what you guys are thinking on this one!

This Christmas, the only thing under the tree is terror.

A mother must protect her family on Christmas Day from a demented stranger who is hell-bent on tearing them apart.

I know it seems early for me to post about Christmas but this movie looks bat shit crazy! Artsploitation will deliver the ultimate stocking stuffer with the home video release of the Australian horror film Red Christmas on October 17th. Look for it on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD, including iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Google Play, Vudu and more.

“A troubled matriarch must defend her family when a mysterious stranger turns up at her secluded country mansion on Christmas day. A day of celebration becomes a night of terror, as the stranger reveals a secret from the family’s past, and threatens to destroy their future.”

For me, I can not wait to see funny man David Collins from the Nick Jr show Upside Down Show. You need to google him on YouTube and watch some of their skits these guys are funny as hell having done a kids show for years.

The Blu-ray and DVD include a feature-length commentary with Craig Anderson, interviews with Dee Wallace, Gerald Odwyer and Craig Anderson, bloopers and more.

Check out the trailer!! And let me know is this something up your alley or not?

You can bet your sweet candy corn ass I will be reviewing this bad boy in November.

Holy S*%t...

Dementia 13 Remake News

When it comes to horror movies that beloved horror host's use often it would have to be Night of the Living Dead and Francis Ford Coppola’s Dementia 13. It's is a wonderful telling of a ghost story. In DEMENTIA 13, a vengeful ghost, a mysterious killer and a family brimming with secrets converge in one night of terror! Chiller Films have announced that Richard LeMay’s will be retelling Dementia 13 and it is set to hit theatres this October 6th and then on Digital HD this October 10th. The image above is the only one I can find so far Its like Chiller is really out to tease us slowly. Dementia 13 has always been a Halloween staple for me it was a very well done movie, and Dark Ride was great, so maybe we will get a fun little remake here. As soon as the trailer hits the interweb I will post it here.

Friends till the end, remember?

Confined to an asylum for the criminally insane for the past four years, Nica Pierce (Fiona Dourif) is erroneously convinced that she, not Chucky, murdered her entire family. But when her psychiatrist introduces a new therapeutic "tool" to facilitate his patients' group sessions - an all-too-familiar "Good Guy" doll with an innocently smiling face - a string of grisly deaths begins to plague the asylum, and Nica starts to wonder if maybe she isn't crazy after all. Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent), Chucky's now-grown-up nemesis from the original Child's Play, races to Nica's aid. But to save her he'll have to get past Tiffany (Oscar-nominee Jennifer Tilly), Chucky's long-ago bride, who will do anything, no matter how deadly or depraved, to help her beloved devil doll.

I don't know about you but I'm good with getting a new Chucky movie! This is the first Child's Play movie, since 1991's Child's Play 3, that will feature the character of Andy Barclay as the main protagonist. Andy did, however, make a post-credit scene at the end of 2013's Curse of Chucky. That was more or less a fan service scene lasting less than 5 minutes, though. I will be sure to keep you guys posted on this one.
