Dark Room Theater Double Feature looks surprisingly funny..

Apple.com always has some awesome trailers to check out, in my search of the newest (as of every friday/wednesday) I came across Dark Room Theater. It has a very Tales from the Crypt esq feel to it.. of course in a very B Movie feel. This is what Apple.com Synopsis said about it:
Dark Room Theater is a double feature in the vein of The Twilight Zone, about ordinary people who find themselves in extraordinary, usually supernatural, situations, using both ironic and comic twists. The show is hosted by an animated character entitled Dr. Brainly, a brain that lives in a glass beaker from an experiment gone wrong or right depending on your point of view.

Todd McFarlane's Haunt is finally here!!!

The long anticipated comic collaberation of Robert Kirkman and Todd McFarlane has finally been put in to pressing. The first issue being released by Image Comics (most famous for McFarlanes SPAWN) will hit sometime in October and is going to be hot!!!
The title centers on a pair of brothers, Kurt and Daniel Kilgore, who couldn't care less for one another. Kurt, a secret agent, and Daniel, a less than holy priest, bond in a way neither of them expects after Kurt's untimely death. A surprise fusing of Kurt's ghost with Daniel's body creates a chain reaction, turning the brothers into the character, Haunt.
Kirkman had alot to say about Haunt and working with McFarlane calling it "a dream come true".. reserve your first copy at your local comic shop today!!

Rob Zombies Halloween 2 review

***WARNING-SPOILERS AHEAD***

Can I first start off by saying this, I was a big fan of the first Halloween Zombie did. With that being said I was also a fan of the original series where Michael was killing the entire Myers family. This film seemed to go in the direction of Myers being a bottom line serial killer. Which by all means isn't bad but it didn't feel like a Halloween. Zombie hit the nail on the head in the the first film, but this one was more of a crappy story to get his wife in the film.. The idea of having Michael see his mother and her leading him to kill is kind of lame but could be pulled off if Zombie had done a better job with that part of the story. When watching you get the feeling that she is telling Michael to do all these bad things. I think the movie itself could have done without all of that and it would have made the film ten times better. Dr. Lumis you find out in the first ten minutes isn't dead and has a new book that pisses off a lot of the characters in the movie. Revealing to all that the main girl "Angel" is in fact Michael's little sister, who can't one good nights sleep due to freaky dreams of being murdered by her brother. Lumis the whole movie is promoting his book (I would read it) and trying to convince the public that Michael Myers is dead. Only to by the end of the movie find out he isn't dead and feels the compelling need to fulfill his destiny and bring down that evil that is MM. I won't ruin the ending just incase any of you decide to go see it. Overall I give Halloween 2 ...
6 out of 10 skulls..

new moving Poster for Pandorum

Since the first trailer for this movie came out I have stoked to see it. Sci-fi thrillers are just intense and border line realistic in my opinion. Check out the link to see the moving poster for "Pandorum" right "here"
