Do We Really Need a 'Pumpkinhead' Remake?
It seems that no 80's movie is safe from the remake machine these days, as news of the late Stan Winston's directorial debut Pumpkinhead is announced as going into production expecting a 2017 release. This is being made by one of the executive producers of the once mighty (and possibly soon again?) Saw franchise, Peter Block. Where it might seem like a fun idea to re-start this franchise I have to wonder if we really NEED another one.

Szilagyi/Tepes Reaction to the Movie
I would have done things differently. That Mira/Mirena character? Weak in ways I wouldn’t have been. When she cried and told the movie Vlad not to let her son be taken away? That’s what I mean. I wouldn’t have simply looked on after my son as he went off to fight for a country that had never done anything good for our country, our culture, our very way of life. I would have refused to let go of him until Vlad had fought them off or at least negotiated his freedom. Something.

Not Caught Up With 'Ash vs Evil Dead' Yet? Here's a Handy Guide to the 'Evil Dead' Universe
Now listen up, you primitive screw-head! Not my words, but words from the mouth of Ashley Williams, the main protagonist in Sam Raimi's undying horror series that is The Evil Dead. I've been completely bonkers about these ever since I first caught the original movie on late night television here in the UK. It gave me the drive to pick up a camera and make my own crazy movies, not to mention be afraid of books with scary faces on the cover. However I'm aware that not everyone knows the history behind the Starz series, so I'm going to take you through time and space into the world that is — put simply — groovy!

Aim For The Head: Archaeologists Find Real-Life 'The Walking Dead' In Medieval England
No, believe me, this is not some delayed April Fool's joke, #TheWalkingDead is very much alive and among us — well, at least it was in Medieval England. While the #zombie apocalypse may seem like some far-off biohazard from a tech-savvy #ResidentEvil future, has our fear of brain-munching monsters actually been around for centuries? Sorry, George. A Romero, it looks like those Medieval peasants beat you to it!

Crimson Peak Reaction
You all know who I am. You all know who I am in this too, and I’m not who you’d expect me to be by my title, my reputation as such a baby-stealing, slut-favoring, sexuality and kink head. Yes, that’s who I am, and my womb is necessarily Purgatory as well. Don’t make me laugh.

Short horror fiction is to horror fans what water is to plants, it feeds us and we simply cannot get enough of it. There also seems to be a massive cache of fans for audio horror as well, with many YouTube channels containing hours upon hours of original tales of terror. So after being a MASSIVE fan of these for so long, here's my first stab at the audio-horror sub-genre. First though, we need to go back in time a short while...

Coming Back Swinging: 'The Walking Dead' Actor Teases Epic Return From Season 1
The Walking Dead isn't exactly kind to its characters, I mean, you never really see anyone wander off into the #zombie apocalypse to live happily ever after with a bouquet of flowers and a Forrest Gump box of chocolates. Normally they are found hacked to bits a few episodes later or having their throat slit over at Terminus.

A Trip Down Memory Lane
I am 24 years old, and five years go today I was diagnosed with narcolepsy. A condition where I feel tired constantly and have "sleep attacks" which is when I suddenly and unexpectedly fall asleep. No matter how much caffeine I inhale. But the case with me is I can either never or at the most hardly remember the last 10-15 minutes. Even if I am only out for a couple of seconds. This is why I have someone attached to my hip every moment of my life. It was not my idea, my parents believed that it was a smart choice and there was no was I was arguing out of that situation. Over the 5 years that I have had narcolepsy, I have had three different people to watch over me.
