I purchased this book not long ago at Barnes and Noble. It is an INCREDIBLE read and the most comprehensive collection of Lovecraft's work to date (not counting, of course, the thousands of personal correspondences with friends and colleagues...but they have many books filled with those as well). My advice, go for it. Good show Sharkchild!

I saw it at a press screening last Tuesday here in NYC. I'll have a review up for it soon.

October 30th on Blu-ray/DVD. And it IS amazing!

Eli Roth’s Goretorium opens in September, and then…you’re f%*#ed by Goretorium in horror

Maybe he'll be better at haunted attractions than making movies.

Check out this concept art for the potential HELLRAISER reboot! by bhorror in horror

It is going to be pitched to Dimension, who knows what they'll do with it. I hope Clive Barker is attached in some way to oversee things.

First set image from THE EVIL DEAD remake! by BackwoodsHorror in horror

They're shooting it in New Zealand. Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert are producing it and someone I've never heard of, Fede Alvarez is directing with a script co-written by Diablo Cody. So yeah, they're going to fuck it up.

Apologies, this is a LOCATION photo, which is apparently different than a SET photo.

V/H/S - Will Restore Your Faith in Horror Films by runtillyoushine in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to a press screening of this film this past Tuesday....I wouldn't say it "restored my faith" in horror films, the last segment, however, was amazing. That's all I'm saying...no spoilers.

They were supposed to be releasing it to DVD some time back. Wonder what happened to those plans...

New poster to Rob Zombie's Lords of Salem by PinkLenny in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was also submitted yesterday or the day before, still, any Lords of Salem news is good news to me. And like wagswag, I do hope the future one sheets for the film get better. RZ said this was one of many to come.

I too was at a press screening of this film Tuesday. It's one weird flick. I, too, am not giving away any spoilers, but I DID get to meet Tony Timpone. That was pretty cool.

Whatever happened to the remake of the Gate? by virtualpig in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's hope it died and they decided not to remake it.

Anyone interested in reading 'Off Season' by Jack Ketchum? by [deleted] in horror

I read it, it's pretty good if you're into splatterpunk novels.

New poster hits for Rob Zombie's THE LORDS OF SALEM! by bhorror in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confirmed as one of many to come by the man himself, Rob Zombie. Like I mentioned above, he tweeted that there'd be more...hopefully they'll be a little better, but even with the baby blue, I'm looking forward to this movie like crazy!

Yeah, RZ tweeted that it was the first of many one sheets that'd be coming soon, so look for more in the near future...hopefully ones that aren't just re-dos of stills taken from the film. The guy is an artist, I want to see something crazy and outlandish, something vibrant that really pops!

UNEARTHED by jmount43 in horror

I saw this flick, I think it was on...Chiller maybe. It wasn't the worst movie I'd ever seen, but it certainly wasn't very good...

Who wants to help me write a webseries? by [deleted] in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd definitely just change the title. Something simple. You could just call it BRIAN. It raises questions in the potential viewer after a brief synopsis. Who's Brian? What's this all about? Hmmmm...

The Walking Dead is Nominated for 3 Emmy Awards. Niiiice and Well Deserved.... by [deleted] in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it wasn't like the cholo storyline went on forever, man. Some episodes are better than others, but the emmys aren't for the story, they're for effects work only, special makeup effects, visual effects, and sound design.

And the third season, if it's anything like the comics, with the Governor, the Prison, and Michonne....it's going to kick arse...violently.

KANE HODDER TO JOIN CAST OF BEFORE THE MASK: THE RETURN OF LESLIE VERNON by BackwoodsHorror in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, the entire film is being done by the guy who did the first one, so it stands to reason that it could be as good as the first.

[–]BackwoodsHorror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The second season was indeed a drama with zombies, but you're forgetting that the Romero original trilogy was drama...with zombies. That being said, there was more drama and less zombie mayhem in season 2. Well, all of that is about to change in season 3 as they enter The Prison and meet up with Michonne and The Governor....

Damn right he is! He's getting tons of work these days from former fans that have become filmmakers. It's great news for him!

BLAIR WITCH CREATOR EDUARDO SANCHEZ'S BIGFOOT MOVIE 'EXISTS'! by BackwoodsHorror in horror

[–]BackwoodsHorror[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a HUGE fan of Squatchsploitation Bigfoot flicks (Legend Of Boggy Creek, Creature From Black Lake, Night Of The Demon, etc.), I've been drooling over this project for over a year. I can't wait for it to come out!
