Dead Space: Downfall Trailer [NSFW - Gore]

Here is the trailer for the straight to DVD animated feature film Dead Space: Downfall, which is a prequel to the highly anticipated horror video game Dead Space. The story picks up where the original comic book series ended and takes place aboard the mining spaceship USG Ishimura.

If you’re unfamiliar with Dead Space, and you’re a video gamer, you should probably be slapped with a wet marmoset. Otherwise I highly suggest you check out the Dead Space website for more gruesome love’n.

Both the game and the animated feature are to be released at the same time this October.

Goblin Shark Video From Japan

Here is footage taken of the very rarely seen Goblin Shark, which is found mostly around the waters of Japan. Yes, this is a real animal and it’s frigging creepy looking as hell. So much so that there’s plans on making a horror film based on the freak.

Terminator DVD Player


This is a level “Ass Kicking” item that I must have. It’s a T-800 Terminator skull that plays DVDs whilst it glares at you sinisterly.

Carpenter’s ‘The Thing’ Meets G.I Joe

This video has been making the rounds, and I can see what. It’s a music video for the song Driving this road until death sets you free, by Zombie Zombie, which uses stop motion animation to recreate John Carpenter’s The Thing… with G.I. Joe action figures.

How frigging sweet is that?

Want To See Midnight Meat Train?

If you want to have a chance of seeing the film adaptation of Clive Barker’s Midnight Meat Train you’ll probably be out of luck. According to Bloody-Disgusting.com the movie is getting an extremely limited release, only at second-run theaters, exclusively west of the Mississippi. Not a single East Coast showing. And Mr. Barker is not too happy with the film distributor Lionsgate. So he’s asking fans to speak up and let Lionsgate know they’re screwing up:

From Clive Himself:

If you wish to see MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN in all its big screen glory at a THEATER near you, please do the following:

Cut and paste the message at the bottom of this post and e-mail it to:

1) investor relations at Lionsgate: keasterling@lionsgate.com

2) Lionsgate: general-inquiries@lionsgate.com

3) call Lionsgate at (310) 449-9200 and express your desire to see MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN get the release it deserves.

BE POLITE AND PROFESSIONAL! We do not want to piss them off, just want them to know how many fans out there would like to shell out their hard earned cash to see the most groundbreaking horror film of the past ten years in a real movie theater!

HERE’S A SAMPLE MESSAGE FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE (or feel free to compose your own):

Dear Lionsgate,

As a long time Clive Barker fan, I am writing you to express my strong desire to see “The Midnight Meat Train” on the big screen.

Rumors are currently circulating that the film will only be released on a limited basis and I am very concerned that I will miss my opportunity to see the most highly anticipated Clive Barker film in over a decade in all of its big screen glory!

There are millions of horror fans like myself who have been disappointed by the recent trend towards watered down PG-13 horror movies. Clive’s work represents a return to serious, thought provoking horror movies and with Ryuhei Kitamura at the helm, I am even more excited to experience this collaboration, as it was intended: in a packed theater with hundreds of other horror fans like myself!

I urge you to please give this film the release it deserves!

Many thanks,
YOUR NAME

I Love Sarah Jane [NSFW - Gore & Language]

This is a pretty swank short film about a group of teenagers sometime after the Zombie Apocalypse doing what teenagers are apt to do - blow stuff up. But there’s also a potential love story here too:

“Jimbo is 13. All he can think about is one girl, Sarah Jane. And no matter what stands in his way - bullies, violence, chaos, zombies - nothing is going to stop him from finding a way into her world.”

Wilhelm Scream Compilation

In 2007 at some nerd convention, a dude screened his ode to the ever popular cinematic scream - The Wilhelm Scream. Above is that very compilation in all its loving “AHHHHH!” Though not a full list of all the films that have used The Wilhelm Scream, it is still a compelling documentation of one of the most recognizable sound effects ever. And a means to a great drinking game.

Quarantine The Game

Quarantine The Game

Sony Screen Gems has released Quarantine The Game into the Internets as a promotional for the upcoming movie Quarantine, which is due out this October.

It’s a fun little romp through the apartment complex filled with the infected which you must make your way around to make it to your objective. Objective, shmobjective - this game is about rendering zombie-type freaks into a pile of red goo with whatever you can find.

Fun stuff.

Watchman Trailer

I know a tun-and-a-half nerds that are fretting if the Watchman movie will stay true to the actual comic. After seeing this I would hope most of you can settle the hell down, ’cause this looks pretty spot-on if you ask me.

And if you don’t know who or what the Watchman is, you suck. Well at the very least you’re uneducated in what is arguably one of the most important comics in history… really, it’s true. So to help school you here’s the general plot of the film:

A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure, the film is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the “Doomsday Clock” - which charts the USA’s tension with the Soviet Union - is permanently set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion - a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers - Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity…but who is watching the Watchmen?

Swank, yes?

Zombies Eat Brains And Clay [Kind of NSFW - Gore]


Seems that claymation and zombies is becoming a big thing. First there was Chainsaw Maid, now there’s Zombies Eat Brains and Clay, a full-length film currently in the works. Featuring the voices by Daniel Roebuck (River’s Edge and TV’s Lost) and Chuck Williams (Puppet Master 5: The Final Chapter and Bubba Ho-tep), the film is due out sometime this year.
