Real Zombies in the U.S??

Road signs are showing up in various states around the U.S. warning, "CAUTION! ZOMBIES AHEAD!," and, "ZOMBIES IN AREA! RUN!" Have the dead become reanimated? Are they stalking our country, preying on the living? Should we be in fear of our lives? Fortunately (or unfortunately?), no. Rather, there have been a slew of pranksters that have been tampering with road signs that are meant to warn motorists of traffic problems ahead. The latest prank was reported this past Tuesday during the morning rush hour in Collinsville, IL.

An electronic road sign on the southbound side of Interstate 255 read, "DAILY LANE CLOSURES DUE TO ZOMBIES." On Monday, in Indiana's Hamilton County, a board within a construction zone advised motorists, "RAPTORS AHEAD ? CAUTION." Additionally, there were signs in Austin, Texas that warned, "NAZI ZOMBIES! RUN!!!"

While the pranksters are doing this all in fun and games, officials are worried that the signs will distract drivers. So far, authorities have not been able to figure out who the pranksters are or where they have been hacking into the signs from. If caught, though, these pranksters might be in for some pretty major consequences. In Illinois, the fine for meddling with an official traffic road sign can be up to $250. Yet, this is only half of what the guilty party might have to pay if caught in Texas. The worst is in Indiana, though, where the convicted could pay $5,000 in fines, and serve up to a year in jail.

I am wondering if some of these signs (mainly the ones in Texas that read "NAZI ZOMBIES!") have anything to do with the Norwegian film *Dead Snow*that was shown at the Sundance Film Festival this year? Regardless, the signs are quite amusing. Check out the full article and pictures of the signs on Yahoo! News

HART D. FISHER AND CRAVEN MOOREHEAD ANNOUNCE ALLIANCE!

TWO OF THE DARKEST FORCES IN ADULT AND HORROR TEAM UP IN A NEW FILMMAKING PARTNERSHIP TO TAKE ON THE WORLD OF MUSIC VIDEO PRODUCTION!

LOS ANGELES, CA - In a surprise move, Crime Pays, Inc. founder and president, Hart D. Fisher, has announced the latest critical addition to his filmmaking machine, Horror Porn auteur, Craven Moorehead. The two have stated their alliance has one goal only: to take on the world of music videos, drag it kicking and screaming into a dark alley, and whip the sunuvabitch to within an inch of it's life and make it beg for more.

I was cutting a few jobs for Glenn Danzig. Said controversial filmmaker Hart D. Fisher. And what I noticed was that we kept going to the B camera constantly for the best footage. This happened over a few projects, and the man behind that camera was Craven Moorehead. I already loved this guy's porn, Grub Girl rocked, I knew I wanted to work with him right then and there.?

One would be hard pressed to find two more controversial creators in the world of horror or porn, let alone working together. Mr. Fisher's post production facility, Crime Pays Inc, has been responsible for the look and editing on multiple AVN Award Nominated horror porns Club Satan (Matt Zane), Porn of the Dead (Rob Rotten), and now by adding legendary Grub Girl director and musician Craven Moorehead to his team the circle is complete.

After adapting Glenn Danzig?s Grub Girl to XXX, you gotta say, where do I go from here?? Said Mr. Moorehead,I got my answer in Hart D. Fisher. From his Dahmer comics in the 90?s to his cutting edge editing in adult, this is a guy I can tear up the world of music videos with. What other working director in horror has been on both Jerry Springer and Larry King, let alone survived a protest march on his house? We're gonna definitely shake things up.

After tackling the fetish/horror/club visuals for the upcoming My Bloody Valentine fetish event on February 14th, Moorehead and Fisher are currently in talks with several metal bands for their next video project. For anyone interested in seeking out the filmmaking duo for their next music video project, please contact us at:

I'll make you kill... Savant-?

Daniel Myrick, who was responsible for The Blair Witch Project has revealed his latest film entitled Savant. It's about a man who can get inside your head and make you kill people. It's bad enough to have someone read your thoughts but to actually be able to bend that will of yours and make you a killer...pretty coolconcept...right? Having someone control you from your thoughts alone is a frightening situation. Do you even know what you are doing?

So you could just be strolling along one day and suddenly you meet this guy who tells you that your shoes untied, is that all it takes or does he have to give you the stink eye? What sort of person would want to do that? Maybe he is a demon in disguise or perhaps the Devil himself? Or it could just be some douche bag like Criss Angel (an episode of Supernatural actually had that title) walking around? I guess the only way to be safe is if you are blind!

You're kidding.....right? (Pinhead new look)

I have been sitting here watching it snow like crazy while eating cookie dough. I just said let me see what's going on in the news and came across this. Director Pascal Laugier needs someone to bitch slap him up side the head so he can realize his new pinhead concept is totally ridiculas. Don't even bother making the damn film if you are going to totally ruin all it has stood for, this thing doesn't look like it came from hell, it looks like it came out of some suspension somewhere!

Clive Barker can't need money that bad to let his creation turn into a laughing matter, this thing is not right. They say that they are trying to introduce this cenobite to a new generation, well let me tell you this, you are not supposed to try and fix something that ain't broken. This remake
is breaking my heart for I am a huge Hellraiser fan and love Doug Bradley to death and honestly can't picture anyone filling his shoes.

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair... (House)

On a totally isolated road in Alabama, Jack and Stephanie find themselves driving at super speed since they are running late. A strange accident leaves them stranded with no car, no bars on their cell phones, and no one around to help them out of this one. Darkness swiftly approaches and just when
they think they can't walk anymore they see a sign for The Wayside Inn. Once inside they hope together their wits.

So now that they are warm and comfy they should be safe, right? I mean who ever heard of some wacko running an Inn! My bad, most of them are nuts if they wanna deal with miserable weary travelers whose cars have broke down. Michael Madsen stars in this film titled House and I hope he's a bad guy since he plays one so damn well, and a handsome bugger at that. Remember the ear scene in the totally bad ass Reservoir Dogs?

AFTERMATH: NEW EXECUTIVE PRODUCER!
As Aftermath barrels its way toward production it is our great pleasure to announce the addition of veteran filmmaker Gavin Wilding in role of Executive Producer.

Gavin's cinematic experience extends over a period of 20 plus years and his credits include such films as Christina's House, The Wisher, Stag and most recently his turn as Executive Producer on the star studded indie darling Battle in Seattle (starring among others Oscar winner Charlize Theron). Being no stranger to multiple duties Gavin has served as Director, Editor, and has an especially impressive producing career that's pure testament to his value in this venture. With Mr. Wilding now on board as well as a slew of interested outside parties eager to help, Aftermath continues it's impressive advancement to becoming a reality!

Ready for Numer 2? (Friday The 13th 2)

Warner Bros. has given the green light for a Friday the 13th Part 2 so Jason fans get ready for another shot at shooting out of your theatre seat with fear! Producer Michael Bay approved of a sequel based on positive tracking results the studio. Now the film could come out and still bomb but somehow I doubt this, it's the only remake out of all of them that looks decent with out all the hype of being in 3 D like MBV! Plus Supernatural's own eye candy Jared Padalecki is in it!

I guess now it's all about waiting to see just how it all turns out. If Halloween can be remade, liked and moved on to a sequel why can't Friday the 13th? If by chance Friday's release doesn't do well will the whole project will be nicked from the grasps of us fans? Do you want to see Jason tearing thru Camp Crystal lake for another round or are you satisfied at what has already been done? Either way, I think I am ok with it. I think Hollyweird does need some new ideas.

Mental Asylum ghosts? (The Ward)

The idea of this is so fresh and new that their really isn't much of a plot to even go on. Just know that it involves a young woman in a mental institution and a ghost or two. I love ghosts and mental asylums so I'm game! Pretty much everything has been covered now a days in horror
so many producers and directors just want to cash in on some catchy trend and don't rely on their creativity anymore.

So now a Bigger Boat and Echo Lake are teaming up to produce The Ward with the intentions of offering their audiences Carpenter's heated return to the director's seat since Ghosts of Mars in 2001. Filming is set to begin sometime in May so will this push it to a 2010 release? Either way I'll
be ready, willing and able to view this movie with shiny sliver bells on! John Carpenter has attached himself to a number of horror projects so we wish him luck.

The Gore sisters? (Sunshine Cleaning)

Sunshine Cleaning is a superb sounding flick where The Lorkowski sisters are struggling to make ends meet with bills and such. One day Rose's cop boyfriend tells them how much money the people who clean up crime scenes make. So after some convincing, Rose talks her sister into starting their own business so they can roll in the dough and party all night long! Sunshine Cleaning is hoped to become this season's box office hit like
last years Juno.

Plenty of fake gore and bad decisions flesh this film out making it have a quirky edginess amid the weird shiny happy people vibe. Emily Blunt is Norah the fun party girl who holds down a day job of being a waitress. I hope she doesn't have to go work at a diner after scrubbing someone's brains off the wall, that could really kill someone's urge to be around food whether they are eating it or not. I think this film is something I'd like to check out

Every addiction has it's price... (Bled)

Bled has Sai, who is a hip young new age artist who lives in a warehouse downtown. Suddenly Sai finds she is stuck in this own little fantasy world that she herself has created. A sharp looking man tries to seduce her into trying this new wonder drug that will take her to places she has never experienced before. Really this is an ancient drug that will automatically transform her into prey for this dark vampire who will use her new found addiction to cross over from his world into ours.

Christopher Hutson directed this vampire story with a slightly different twist. Imagine you and a friend go out for a night clubbing and partying. You feel adventurous and meet this attractive, charming fellow who wants to give you free drugs...hmmm what's a girl to do? Me, I am lame and would say no thanks so I would be safe from those sharp fangs. What would you say? Most people would jump for a chance at euphoria....but not me!

No wire hangers...ever? (Hanger)

The guys who gave you Gutterballs are back and better than ever with Hanger. The film stars Dan Ellis and starts with a bloody back alley abortion and ends also with a bang. Pimps and dealers swarm this film along side with some junkies. Hanger is disposing of such filth by causing them blood shed and death. Hanger is written and directed by Ryan Nicholson who holds a hold no bars attitude. No stone will be left unturned as this movie prepares to push limits to the very edge.

Hanger is a sordid tale of revenge. It shows one man waving a bloody tampon under his nose, a line about stinky hoochie, and this gory abortion involves a very pregnant lady, not just a few months now! She has to be full
term by the girth of her belly, that's one abortion I would not want to see. I might have to watch this with a bucket next to me.

Some people just shouldn't breed! (Offspring trailer and sequel)

Once among these parts there was a feral cannibal clan who chomped on everything they could get their hands on, there are only a few remaining members and believe me they have no qualms of throwing some salt on your towns people and eating them alive! Jack Ketchum's book Offspring was made into a movie that will offend some and have others cheering as the war goes on between the locals and the hungry demented offspring.

Amy Halbard and Claire Carey are determined to escape from the clutches of these flesh eating freaks and save their children from a horrible death. Damn, can't these bastards go vegan? Pretend to be a dinosaur and be a leaf eater or something! Go suck on a cow, not a human. Claire's skeevy husband tries to rationalize that these people are primitive and know no other means but to eat us...yeah, ok! Let him get a skewer up his ass and
be toasted on some fire! A sequel is already being talked about.

WTF- This just came out a few years back.... The Orphanage remake - 2009

The Orphanage is in full swing over at New Line Cinema with the green lit status anticipated for 2009. Why? I mean the first didn't floor me like I hoped it would but this is just plain out weird. This one will be the American version which just hopes to cash in on some success with it. Fan's might have faith in their director Guillermo Del Toro, but many do not have high hopes on the English language remake. Do you feel like this is really necessary?

I don't, I am completely flabbergasted at reading this. Can't they read a book or two and find some movie making ideas instead of rehashing the same shit over and over. If you are just in it to make money, you might as well forget it because you'll be lazy instead of putting forth a real effort of a story you feel something about! I don't really know anything else beside the fact that they want a high profile
female lead.
