Wow, I did not realize that Reg Park had died until I stumbled upon this obituary written by Tim Lucas over at VideoWatchblog. Park played Hercules in a couple of fantasy-oriented sword-and-sandal epics back in the early ’60s, HERCULS CONQUERS ATLANTIS and HERCULES IN THE HAUNTED WORLD. The later retains a certain cult appeal because …
In the tradition of RED ASPHALT and other horrifically gory “Warning Films,” comes a set of worker safety spots from Canada. They’re bloody and very funny – sort of what you might expect if Dario Argento had been hired to film them. You can check them out below, but be warned, some people do not …
TIMBER FALLS will be opening on December 7. I saw the film at Screamfest in Hollywood last October and was pleasantly surprised: the plot (religious loonies kidnap a couple out camping and try to force them to conceive a surrogate child) did not sound particularly auspicious, but the characters suspense were handled pretty well, and the …

Cinematical’s Christopher Campbell raves about the new R-rated 30 DAYS OF NIGHT clip, which you can view here. (You do have to log in and say you’re over eighteen.) The movie hits theatres this Friday, but on Tuesday there will be a preview screening at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, as part of the Screamfest horror …
After launching with the West Coast premiere of George A. Romero’s DIARY OF THE DEAD on Friday, Screamfest continued on Saturday with a series of short subjects, followed by a violent German murder-mystery titled DEAD IN 3 DAYS. The big event of the day did not arrive until late in the evening: two back-to-back 25th …

Just got a press release regarding Universal’s big haunt for October 2007. By now, if you’re interested in this sort of thing, you probably already know that Leatherface, Jason, and Freddy are joining the Universal Classic Monsters for 2007, but there are some more details you will find interesting. (Of course, unanswered remains the question …

The trailer for THE MIST – Frank Darabont’s screen adaptation of Stephen King’s novel, about a group of people trapped in a store surrounded by a mist filled with monsters – is playing before HALLOWEEN. If you don’t want to sit through the whole film just for a chance to see the trailer (and who …
