I Give You... The First-Ever Zombie TV Series
The Vault of Horror — ... Mind-blowing, yes? The definition of must-see TV, right? Ah, but here's the catch: The show has yet to find a distributor. Meaning, not one network thus far has bellied up to the bar to greenlight the project. Sasich and company are still shopping it around, and according to a recent report on DreadCentral, they are making some promising headway. But nothing as of yet. ...

Halloween Convention Wrapup
Horror Movie A Day — ... a few. We had to pay for drinks, but since the con was free and I didn’t find anything to buy, I was able to use the money I figured I’d spend at the con for drinks without too much concern. And towards the end of the night we got a few drink tickets, so woooo! Not a lot of the Halloween folks came, but Derek Mears, aka the new Jason, aka the nicest man in the entire world, was there, and even though I have my hobo beard, he remembered me. And I got to pal around with Uncle Creepy, who lives in San Diego, so I only see him every couple of months. Also: ...

The Scary Bits: Raimi's Return, Jason's Resurrection & Some New 'Thing'
Cinematical — ... Me, I'm fine with it. But if you come into my house and mess with my The Thing DVD, I may have to cut you. (More from Pete right here.) Sam Raimi's long-awaited return to horror is called Drag Me to Hell, and while I won't get to see it for a few more weeks (sadface), the early buzz from the L.A. horror hounds is nothing but enthusiastic. I refuse to read ANYthing about this movie, but you can click around Bloody, Shock, and Dread to see what those gorehounds thought. Oooh, next week we get a bunch of new Friday ...

Ebert: Legendary Critic And HMAD Reader!
Horror Movie A Day — ... My buddy Andrew from DreadCentral.com alerted me to this a little while ago: Roger Ebert's Last House review. In the 5th paragraph, you will notice that he singles out HMAD's review (as it was the only one online at the time) when making a point about rape scenes in films. Now, he seemingly missed the point I was making (not that the RAPE was tone down, but everything ELSE was, which made the rape scene more powerful, and thus HARDER to sit through and also easier to justify the parents' actions), but I'll chalk that up to my poor writing skills. And ...

This doc is clearly following in the footsteps of other franchise retrospectives like Halloween: 25 Years of Terror and His Name Was Jason: 30 Years of Friday the 13th (especially considering that Daniel Farrands, director of the latter, is once again in charge). Also helping out is Andrew Kasch of horror website Dread Central.
