Dear Fans and Readers,
I will be changing the focus of this blog from all horror movies to just indie films pacifically preproduction films in crowdfunding.
I find the filmmakers much more approachable and easier to work with. I have a great passion to see them succeed. you won't see any bad reviews here I will just not write about a movie I don't believe in. You may see an occasional film from a different genre but we are going to stay true to our horror roots, with a we want to see this movie made twist. I truly appreciate everyone that reads the words I throw down on the screen here and sincerely hope you all will stay with us for the next phase of the journey. That being said if you hear or see anything drop me a line and we will check it out. Stay scary my friends.

THE EPIDEMIC (2015) first Look
THE EPIDEMIC
The Beginning of the End...... or The Beginning Of A New Franchise
The new pre production film that will be filming in September 2014, The Epidemic scheduled for release in 2015 has all the makings of the next great zombie film. The
premise giving a nod to the holy grail of of the genre has a virus coming from space but not from a satellite ala NOTLD but a
doomsday meteor that was broken up by missile strikes. That leads to thousands of small zombie stones landing everywhere and heres a nice new little twist on the zombie movie not only are the dead coming back but if you drink the water or breath the air you might get infected. It will tell the story of a group of survivors trying to outlast the outbreak.
And I must say from someone that looks at dozen and dozen of indie horror movies a week the make-up is looking top notch. With writer/director Nigel Hartwell at the helm the project should be in good hands with his extensive resume on both sides of the camera. They also have special effects whiz Michael Martin taken care of the visual effects
And can we talk about the cast for a second it reads like a whos who of horror actors. They have Danny Trejo, Eric Roberts, Corey
Feldman, Tony Todd, Chris Owen, Larry Zerner(the person that gave Jason his hockey mask), and wrestling divas Barbie Blank and Angelina Love.
With all that going for it what could they possibly need, well that would be you the film currently has a crowdfunding campaign on indiegogo. with a good story and great cast this would make a great investment in the zombie universe. so head on over and show some undead love to these guys.

Rob Zombie New Movie Rumors
Rob Zombie Teases New Movie
So this week Rob Zombie teased about an upcoming movie if you haven't seen it look here.......
So in my too much time on my hands sort of way I went looking for clues and answers. And guess what not a darn thing lots and lots of rumors and guessing. Well thats fine because we can do that with the best of them. First is that a 3I or 31 Zombie confirmed it was indeed a 31.
Now lets take a look at the clown picture again. I'm already creeped out. what we know for sure is that it's a man in clown make up. But is that enough to go on. No but in an email he said the film is "for the hardcore fans who want it nasty and brutal." OK still not a lot to go on. so lets look at five possible scenarios.
1. The Captain Spaulding/Rejects Theory
Maybe it's a prequel for a back story on Capt. Spaulding and the rest of the Firefly clan. It would fit in with the "nasty and brutal" quote And the pictures below do look like they could be the same person.
But wouldn't that be to easy for such a well thought out tease. And where does 31 come into play.
2. The "well it has to be Halloween 3" crowd
You can't deny that would make a lot of sense with what we know.
Halloween falls on October 31, and he may be taking the franchise on a darker turn. but that doesn't look like that Bill Shatner mask from Halloween movie fame, you right but remember when little Michael Myers is going out trick or treating hhmmmm.
I know right that could be it. We got 31 check
We got clown tie in check
But thats all we got. Maybe it's not another sequel as much as it's a total reboot on it. Making him more scary by making him more human.
3. American Horror Season 4
I get what you're thinking but here me out. Rob Zombie may be taking a stab at directing a few episodes of American Horror Story. It premieres around Halloween. This season is titled "Freak Show" and takes place in a carnival. And for the kicker Michael Chiklis has been tapped to be on it. So see any resemblance here
I don't think it's too far of a stretch to see a resemblance between teaser clown and the commish.
4. "It" Remake
Well we know that a remake of Stephen Kings "It" is on the books for sometime in 2015. And it would be a shocker to have the minds of King and Zombie meld in a gorefest. but it doesn't fit the 31 unless it's a release date.
I can see it, if i try hard enough
And that brings us to the last visit on the rumor mill train.
5. John Wayne Gacy
It is said he killed between 27 and 33 young men. and he did dress up like a clown. Rob zombie could pull off a hellish version of this story and the picture is passable.
Please leave your comments on your own theories below
Here's the buzz on it from the rest of the internet
Rob Zombie has announced the title of his next horror film: 31. The revelation comes courtesy of a promo video posted on his website spanning his cinematic career, which you can find below. That clown mask appears to be integral to the plot, but if you're looking for plot details, you're shit out of luck.
That said, an email from Zombie claims this film is "for the hardcore fans who want it nasty and brutal."
Presumably this is the same project Zombie talked up back in February, when he said, "I think it's something fans of the other stuff will like. Probably fans of The Devil's Rejects will enjoy the most. It's not connected to that film but it's more on that headspace".
We'll see what further details we can grab onto - you'll get 'em as soon as we do!
- from http://www.joblo.com/horror-movies/news/rob-zombies-next-film-is-3i---see-the-promo-teaser-here
Rob Zombie has been busy lately, not only touring and working on music, but also getting to work on his next film. Now, the rocker-director has officially announced his new horror flick, titled ’3I,’ with a new visual promo (seen above).
In the video, Zombie’s career with horror films is examined, from his first movie ‘House of 1,000 Corpses’ up to his most recent flick ‘Lords of Salem,’ before the new film is teased. All that we get however is a scary looking man in clown makeup, similar to Captain Spalding from his early films, with the film title ’3I.’
What does it all mean? We’ll have to wait and find out, but Zombie did respond to a few commenters on his Facebook page, promising that it will be “nasty and disgusting,” and also dissuading those who proposed that the film would be a Captain Spalding prequel.
We do know who will be creating the score for the film — Rob Zombie’s very own guitarist John 5! The axeman revealed the news via his Instagram page.

The cinematic ouevre of Rob Zombie is reflected upon in a teaser for a new directorial effort called 31. What do we know? Well, the title. Also, it's going to be "hardcore." The video – which debuted at the rocker-director's official site – asks you to sign up for the Rob Zombie newsletter to stay up-to-date.
The final image of the promo gives us a creepy clown visage. That doesn't say much. What does 31 refer to?
The number of days in the month of October? Halloween takes place on October 31st. Grotesque clown visage + 31 = Halloween night to me. Maybe not necessarily a Halloween film, per se, but a film set around that time?
Specultate away. I'm curious to hear what you think.

Z*Con (First Look)
Z*Con (First Look)
Z*Con is like "Goonies" meets "Shaun of the Dead" set in a Comic Con.
Z*Con is about 16 year old Matt Moore, and his three friends, who attend a local comic convention to get interviews for their podcast, but end up stuck in the middle of a Zombie Outbreak at the con. One convention, four teens, thousands of zombies... what could go wrong?
For Geeks, By Geeks, To Geeks.........Take My Money Now Please
Or at least that what we should be saying about the new movie Z*Con. The latest film by Writer/Director Michael C. Dougherty. If the indiegogo teaser and concept short are any indication this is a nerds nivaria, what more could we want we got zombies,cosplay, and comedy. The only way this could get any better if it had a FPS tie in on the Xbox One. Ok enough of my love fest for the concept lets have a look at the movie.
When I'm doing these first looks at films one of the things i look at is how the behind the scenes shots look, do they look like they are having fun and all on the same page, and with this crew it looks good, they really looked like they are having fun which usually transfers well to the big
screen. Anchored by Dougherty's directing and effects and makeup by Vince Collura It looks like it's really coming together nicely. The story revolves around a zombie virus outbreak at a ComicCon. and the few remain survivors trapped inside are the four teen leads who run their own nerd/geek podcast supplying the only communication from inside the quarantined event and hilarity and zombie killing ensues. The second phase crowdfunding is currently going on at indiegogo right now with some great perks and info on the project. And are you ready for this one, strange but true fact...they want to make the movie not make money thats right you saw that right..let it sink in....They are donating any profit from the move, so you not only get cool swag but get help the American Red Cross and Kids Need To Read. So as I shake my magic eight ball it say's "chances are good" for a fun movie you could enjoy.

A Note To Horror Movie Producers......
An Open Letter To Horror Movie Producers
To Whom It May Concern,
Thank You so much for all the great things you all do to make us jump and leave a light on at night while we sleep. However for the love Bella Lugosi's ghost and Bud's decaying body, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop with the "making movies counting on a sequel" nonsense. One of the major complaints I hear about horror movies today is "good movie but the ending kinda sucked though". Let that sink in you had the audience right where you wanted them only to let them slip away in the final act. Don't misinterpret this as me hating on squeals there are plenty of movie series that the second or third movie is way better than the original. But let the quality of your craft dictate what gets remade. I do understand the draw of playing for a sequel has but in doing so you short change yourself and us. This especially true of inde movies we do understand the hardships you have went though to see your vision come to life. But letting the production team take the cheap and easy way out won't help anyone. For me as I'm watching a movie that starts to play for squeal I start to feel cheated by the movie I'm watching. And it is true that horror fans will watch any horror movie that is made but don't take our love for a gerne for weakness. There are plenty of movies that beg for more of the story to be told and those will rise up above the ones that are playing they're audience for a fool. I believe it also lets your writer's and director's an easy out, your job is to challenge them not just let them go through the motions in hopes of getting an easy paycheck in the II version. We as an audience especially in horror are probably the smartest of movie goer's. Don't sacrifice what you have worked so hard to get made by hoping that you can make another, if it's good you will. Again Thank You making our nightmares real, but don't turn our nightmares into movie nightmares.
Yours Truly,

Kids And Horror
When was your first horror movie you remember watching. For me it was Night Of The Living Dead, I remember being with my parents at the Gratiot Drive-In when I was 4 and on that night an obsession was born.
Truthfully I don't remember to much of that night. But I do remember being there. And that brings us to what I wanted to talk about today. How old is to young to introduce your child to horror movies. For me I think at about 5 or 6 is old enough to start watching some of the scarier films now I'm not talking about letting them watch Saw or Hostel but some of the milder movies. Because let's be honest most of the Xbox generation won't find the classic movie monsters appealing. Each parent needs to make this decision on their own. I base my decision on swearing and nudity/sex, a little swearing is fine my 9 year old knows what "bad words" are and a few GD's and hells aren't going to turn him into Jason I do draw the line at the the big one the "F" word one or two maybe fine but really do we need to hear it every other sentence don't get me wrong I can cuss like a drunken sailor mated with a outlaw biker. As for nudity I just don't feel comfortable watch softcore snuff with my kids even the adult ones. While nudity is always a deal breaker, There are a few exceptions to the swearing rule if I feel the movie is important to the genre or subgenre. A case in point would be Shaun of the Dead I felt it was such a defining moment in Zombie movies that the positives outweighed the negatives . What's your opinion on this I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
