Man, this movie looks positively sick! PRIMAL RAGE was released to theaters for one night only, Tuesday February 27th. And I missed it. I had a previous commitment that I couldn’t renegotiate. Now, sadly, I’ll have to wait for the video release. (Unless they do like they did with JEEPERS CREEPERS 3 and release it…

Lester
My parents, not surprisingly, know me well. They are simple country folks, farm folks; neither attended college, and one never even finished high school. Good, church-going, salt-of-the-earth types. Today they are rather cultured, knowledgeable about geek culture and all things odd and weird, as the result of having me as a son. I dragged them…
Dangerous Toys
Look out, Funko. Super7 is looking to give you a run for your money. Super7’s “ReAction Figures” line was previously licensed through Funko, but now the company will be doing its own thing. I have no idea if it and Funko are both owned by the same parent corporation or if they are truly separate…
An Exercise in Micro-Fiction: KRIEGHUND
I’ve got lots of prose fiction I’ve written over the years that’s just lying around in digitized piles. I thought I might try something new and start posting some of it here and on our sister site, VAMPIRES.COM, from time to time, to see if you all might enjoy it. The following story is one…
Hear F*ck-You-Tammy Cover The TWIN PEAKS Theme
A lot of fans didn’t care for Chrysta Bell in the third season of TWIN PEAKS. (Can you believe we are coming up on the anniversary of the show’s debut on Showtime last May? Where the hell has the time gone?) I was initially one of those fans, although Bell’s performance as FBI Agent Tamara…
More on THE TERROR
Last week I was talking about THE TERROR, the upcoming Horror miniseries from AMC, based on the novel by Dan Simmons. Which I read. And which I liked. More images from the forthcoming series have been released. What I really want to see, though, is the Monster! I know that’s not going to happen, but…
The Lohan Werewolf Movie
I’m going to now voice an unpopular and perhaps unbelievable opinion: I thought I KNOW WHO KILLED ME was actually fairly decent. Or perhaps I should say, I thought it had the potential to be pretty good. Lindsay Lohan was obviously stoned during the filming of the movie, and she ain’t no great shakes as…
Why’d It take So Long For Humans To Get Smart
We looked like us for a long, long time before we started acting like us. In other words, humans were anatomically the same as they are now some 200,000 years ago (except possibly for their brains, which might have been more elongated up until some 40,000 years ago). Why did it take so long for…
Toys, Toys, Everywhere Toys!
I can’t stand Todd McFarlane. I find his artwork only “okay,” his, ahem, “writing” skills an unfunny joke, and based on interviews I’ve read, the guy’s just a plain jackass in real life. But he sure does make some nice toys. In fact, I think McFarlane Toys produces the best action figures you can buy.…
Are You Ready For THE TERROR?!
In 1847, a British expedition set out to penetrate the Arctic ice and discover the fabled “Northwest Passage.” They became separated, trapped in the ice, and the crews, well, no one knows. (No one knows the exact ways in which they died, I should say. That they died is a certainty.) This real-life scenario inspired…
