Two Horror Related Adverts

Adverts. Commericals. Whatever you like to call them one thing's for certain, most of them annoy the hell out of people. From their stupid 'Go compare' shouty-man to the cute-but-so-annoying-you-want-to-kick speaking animals. So here are two horror themed adverts. If only there were more of these.

First up we have an advert staring the golemn himself, Frankenstein's monster, Adam.



And next up, yet another annoying Windows advertisement. But this time, with the infamous scene from Lucio Fulci's Zombie Flesh Eaters! It's amazing how this film's reputation has changed over the years...

The body of a Chupacabra?

In North Texas the sightings of possible Chupacabra's have, it seems, rocketed within the past few days. Over the course of three days two unidentified animals have been killed which have a strong resemblance to the (supposedly) mythical creature that sucks the blood of goats  and (according to myth) can eat human babies, not to mention the countless sightings and encounters of these creatures in these region of Texas. Animal control officers are even confused as to what this creature could be. Is it the real thing? Have we just found undeniable prove that these creatures do exist? Or is it a rather ugly looking dog?

Here's a link to an article on this news.

News: Bigfoot Family Living In Man's Backyard!

The Radio Show, Overnight AM, have contacted and interviewed a 70-year old man, named Mike,  who claims that a family (or group) of Sasquatch often visit his back garden at night. He claims the pack consists of an adult male, adult female and two infants. If the gentleman is genuine and he has (and is) witnessing these creatures then this could be the single most important development in zoology. Just think.  Click the link below to listen to the interview and be amazed as Mike answers the questions and explains how he is witnessing the family in the background as he speaks! It's incredible.

The Monster Club

Robosaurus - The Definition of awesomeness! Roar!

What would you see if you looked up the word 'Awesome' in a dictionary? "Robosaurus?" No, you idiot, you would get the definition of 'Awesome!' But no other thing, in this world at least, is quite as awesome as the...awesome ROBOSAURUS!

Forget Godzilla, he's a has-been. For this is pure power! Measuring 40ft (12meters) in height and weighing 30 tons, this monster can crush cars, lorries, and even airplanes in it's jaws. Built in 1988 by Doug Malewicki (for a sum of $2.2 million!), nothing comes close to this monster. Not even the creature it was based on; the almighty T-Rex would look like a midget in a Peter Pan costume compared to this guy. What else can breath fire, crush anything and lift objects 5 storeys off the ground?!

But why there hell was it even made? I'm thinking two things. Either world domination or...world domination. But the Freak is wrong for apparently the whole idea came from wanting to create a real Transformer.

And be sure to check out the creature's own website for some incredible photos/videos and info...

Last 5 Films Seen

I'm a HUGE fan of horror films, from slashers to zombies to vampires and even to gialli. I can't get enough! So, every now and then I'll post up a list of 5 films that I've seen lately. This will be complete with a tiny little review and a trailer (for the majority). Here goes nothing:

1) The Legend of Bigfoot - Harry Winer, 1976.

Bigfoot. What a guy. Keeps himself to himself and stays out of contact with humans (so much so people question his existence). Sounds a bit like me. In this strange hybrid of a documentary/film, Bigfoot 'celebrity' Ivan Marx attempts to track down the elusive beast. A film almost made up completely with stock footage of wildlife, tenuously linked to the creature, this film can be a bit dull. But for any Bigfoot fans out there, check it out, at least for some giggles. According to this 'documentary', when Bigfoot's in town, goats kill themselves. Oh and Bigfoot migrates. Apparently.




2) Not of this Earth - Roger Corman, 1957.

One of the most prolific independent film makers EVER, Roger Corman, directs this rather dark and very sinister sci-fi horror. An alien being with the power of mind control comes to earth, but he's not here just for the sun. Full of 1950’s red fear and a pretty descent story.



3) Deathsport – Allan Arkush, 1978.

David Carradine takes centre stage again in this rather unrelated sequel to DEATH RACE 2000. Full of stupid costumes, silly vehicles, bad dialogue, mutants and a couple of breasts this film is a treat for the so-bad-its-good fan.



4) House of Wax – Andre De Toth, 1953.

Now we’re talking. Sod the remake. The original is everything you could ever want. Vincent Price in one of his best roles.



5) Them! – Gordon Douglas, 1954.

Quite simply one of the very best monster movies of all time. Full of giant ants, some very tense scenes and oodles and oodles of communist fear. Highly, highly recommended!
