Fans of the Quake and Doom franchises will more than likely blow their proverbial load with this “adult” trailer for the upcoming horror-in-space game Dead Space from EA Games.
The premise is nothing new - Dude investigates derelict ship only to find our the entire crew has been defiled in all sorts of gruesome ways by monstrous aliens. Using bigass weapons and bloody moves, he must butcher his way to an end that will probably result in his death anyway.
Yeah, sounds about right.
Dead Space will be available on the Playstation 3, Xbox360 and PC platforms, and will hit shelves this October.
“Werewolf Women of the SS is back! This time it’s back as a comic book series! The wacky exploits of Commandant Hess, Lt. Boorman, Von Strasser Eva and Gretchen Krupp, Fu Manchu and even Hiltler will be coming you way. Everything you ever wanted to know about Project Pure Wolf but were afraid to ask!”
To me this makes the most sence for this project. I’m kind of excited to see who Zombie brings to the table to make this happen. My guess is that he’ll have artist David Hartman illustrate it.
Last year the animated horror short Dear Beautiful hit the world with high acclaim. Here was the potential of horror in animation - full of tension and grit and truly entertaining. And now the film’s creator Roland Becerra is in the works to turn the short into a full-length feature animated film, as reported by Quiet Earth.
The feature will expand the story as such: “The sudden appearance of exotic flowers in New Haven spawns an unprecedented epidemic rumored to be the result of a botched experiment by cosmetics giant, V-Zone. Paul and Lauren, a married couple, are caught between the catastrophe and their own troubled relationship when Lauren encounters one of the flowers and becomes infected. As her symptoms worsen, Paul’s denial of Lauren’s illness puts the couple in grave danger as the city is overrun with infected people, media frenzy, National Guard, protesters and a panicked populace. Struggling to maintain a normal daily life, Paul engages in a battle of wills with his best friend and business partner, Roger, as Paul tries to deny his wife’s condition and Roger tries to take matters into his own hands. As the epidemic reaches a climax, Paul must confront the reality of his situation as well as the monster his friend has become.”
Not much else is being said about the film or about the release date, but I highly recommend that you check out the short film to get a taste of what’s to come.
As if this day can’t get any better, what with the big announcement about Metropolis and all, we now hear that our favorite comic book ever, The Goon by Eric Powell, has been optioned to be made into a move by none other that director David Fincher (Zodiac and Fight Club)! And it gets better. Academy-Award nominated Blur Studio will be developing the film!
If you are unfamiliar with The Goon, a masterpiece of zombies and slapstick Lovecraftian humor set in some old-timey world, I highly suggest you walk into your local comicbook store and demand it. You’ll thank us for it.
Move over Ash, I have a new chainsaw wielding, zombie killing hero - CHAINSAW MAID!
Chainsaw Maid is the bloody claymation short about a maid, a chainsaw and zombies. What more do you really need to know? The film was created by Japanese amateur animator takena, who has a whole line of, as he calls it, “brutal clay animation!” you should check out.
Somehow I think Ray Harryhausen is giggling in the shadows.
I’ll be honest and tell you all that I am not a big fan of remakes, but damn, this looks like it could be a potential winner. Mirrors is the upcoming film is based on the 2003 South Korea horror movie Geoul sokeuro, which is about a mall security guard investigating a series of murders that somehow involve mirrors.
Director Alexandre Aja of High Tension fame makes some changes in his version but seems to keep the overall story intact. Kiefer Sutherland plays an ex-cop hired to guard an old building that is filled with mirrors. Soon he and his family become the target of an evil force that is using just about any reflective surface as a means to torment them. Blood, gore and creepy small children abound.
David Cronenberg has become a genius or is incredibly stupid. He and Grammy and Oscar-winner composer Howard Shore (Lord of the Rings) have teamed up with Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly) to bring you The Fly The Opera, an operatic adaptation of Cronenberg’s 1986 film The Fly.
I don’t know much about operas but I do know who Plácido Domingo is, and they got him to conduct the U.S. premiere for the LA Opera, who commissioned the opera. In the world of stuffy music Domingo is a heavy-hitter, so having him involved adds some street-cred I would guess.
Time magazine described The Fly as “a profound parable on love and loss.” Uhm… what, no Brundle-Fly vomit?
VLOG (short for video blog) is a new online horror series from Twisted Pictures (the guys who dish out the SAW franchise of films) and Break.com. The premise is simple - Some lady named Brooke Marks and a deranged internet killer exchange a loving embrace… no wait… Marks is being hunted by the killer and you, the viewer, get to watch as her buddies get slaughtered one-by-one in each episode. That is until Marks is dispatched herself, at which point I’m sure she’ll return from the dead for the VLOG sequels.
You can watch all of the current episodes of over on the VLOG site. Below is the trailer that gives you a pretty good idea of what you’ll be watching.
Horror-Rocker king Rob Zombie released the teaser poster for his next film Tyrannosaurus Rex, which apparently is about a bad-ass wrestler on the run from a menacing biker gang from hell.
From the looks of this poster I think it’s pretty safe to say the usual suspects will be staring in the film - Ken Foree, Danny Trejo and Rob’s babe-a-licious wife Sheri Moon Zombie.
This is a life size Alien made of steal, resin, rigid foam and the fear of God - I think I may have just peed myself just a little. Really.
If you feel the need to scare the living hell out of say your neighbors, dogs attempting to befoul your lawn or your friends when they need to use the toilet, then this is the very thing to do it.

Transparent Dental Acrylic Lips
Vacu-Form Dome
Steel Armature, Armature Wire in Tail to pose
Wood Base (4′ by 2′) Heal Pins into Steel Bracket
