Horror/Monster News Update
Greeting boys and ghouls,
A quick update about things going on in the Monster/Horror world.
I for one have been extremely busy, preparing a massive amount of goodies for your trick or treat baskets, this upcoming Halloween season will feature a virtual flood of new portraits as well as the premiere of ScOttRa Monster Art radio! That's right media whores that we are we are jumping on the podcast bandwagon. So be sure to check back often starting October 1st.
In other news, The Nefarious Johnny Refund continues to countdown "The Dreadful 69." Be sure to check it out and LEAVE COMENTS, let him know he got it right or why he didn't!
This Tuesday September 12th at 9:00 pm eastern time marks the debut of The Horror Channels original series "Shadow Falls" the first original online horror series. The eight episode first season will culminate on Halloween night. Be sure to check it out. In order to watch you will have to register for a free account at The Horror Channel and have Windows Media Player installed. I checked out their showing of "Night of the Living Dead" this past weekend, and was amazed at how well the technology involved works, the picture was crystal clear, and the ability to chat with other horror fans while watching a classic was great, they were one of the friendliest group of people you could hope to find on the interwebs. I can't wait to check out "Shadow Falls."
Also, I'm probably way late on this, but if you haven't see the video to Naked Ape's "Fashion Freak" then be sure to click here. I'm not sure life gets any sweeter then a Hawt Zombie Chick car wash.
Over at the Pee Money blog, my blood brother Phill Weber has posted his chilling new story entitled "Doctor Lamb," be sure to stop in and give it a read. you won't regret it!
Also, AMC has sent out a press release about this years Monsterfest. Check it out at the Rue Morgue forum.
And just in case you missed it, the new issue of 1313 Magazine is now available, and comes HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Check it out here.
Dimension Films announced that October 19, 2007 will be the release date for Rob Zombie's new version of the classic 1978 horror film "Halloween." I'm keeping my fingers crossed, I wasn't originally a big fan of "House of 1,000 Corpses" but I was surprised at the level of filming he showed in "The Devil's Rejects," And I'm a big fan of his comic "Spookshow International," so I'm hoping he can pull the "Halloween" franchise out of the toilet.
And lastly but not leastly, Friday October 13th 2006 is the "Horror Day of Action," a campaign to inspire all lovers of the horror genre to reach out to the world on Friday, Oct. 13, 2006. The idea caught fire and spread to every area of horror, from haunted house operators to videogame designers to movie makers and writers. But the most important and basic ingredient of Horror Day is each fan's participation.
On Oct. 13, fans are asked to buy a horror book, give away a horror book, rent a horror video, read ghost stories to children, host an art show, or talk to the nearest library, bookstore, video store, newspaper and to call your local radio station. Be sure to check out The Official Horror Day Myspace Page for more information.
