“The Raven” Trailer


ewpoe
Synopsis
In this gritty thriller, Edgar Allan Poe (John Cusack, Being John Malkovich) joins forces with a young Baltimore detective (Luke Evans, Immortals) to hunt down a mad serial killer who’s using Poe’s own works as the basis in a string of brutal murders. Directed by James McTeigue (V for Vendetta), the film also stars Alice Eve (Sex and the City 2), Brendan Gleeson (In Bruges) and Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Faster).
When a mother and daughter are found brutally murdered in 19th century Baltimore, Detective Emmett Fields makes a startling discovery: the crime resembles a fictional murder described in gory detail in the local newspaper—part of a collection of stories penned by struggling writer and social pariah Edgar Allan Poe. But even as Poe is questioned by police, another grisly murder occurs, also inspired by a popular Poe story.
Realizing a serial killer is on the loose using Poe’s writings as the backdrop for his bloody rampage, Fields enlists the author’s help in stopping the attacks. But when it appears someone close to Poe may become the murderer’s next victim, the stakes become even higher and the inventor of the detective story calls on his own powers of deduction to try to solve the case before it’s too late.

PRESS RELEASE:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lucio Fulci’s CAT IN THE BRAIN “Weird Wobbler” Bobblehead figure available for preorder!
October 5, 2011
Cult Collectibles in association with Box Office Spectaculars is proud to announce the release of the Lucio Fulci – CAT IN THE BRAIN "Weird Wobbler" bobblehead figure. Based on Lucio Fulci’s portrayal of himself in his 1990 film CAT IN THE BRAIN, this is the world’s first fully authorized figure of any type of the beloved Italian director.
The film features Fulci as a horror film director who believes he is losing touch with reality. Fulci fills the movie with his wicked sense of humor and literally assaults our senses with a seemingly endless barrage of violence, gore and sex!
Having previously released the incredible “Weird Wobbler” bobblehead figure for Fulci’s THE BEYOND (the world’s first bobblehead figure with an alternate detachable face), Cult Collectibles jumped at the opportunity to produce a figure of the director.
Owner Mark Jason Murray comments, “Fulci’s films were a major discovery for me in my pre-teen years during the wonderful era of ‘mom and pop’ video stores! Decades later I am still as much of a fan as ever and really wanted to pay tribute to Lucio himself. He was a master film maker even in genres outside of horror. For many of us, his horror films are the classics of our generation. I wanted to produce a figure for the true fans in honor of him.”
The figure shows Fulci wearing a flannel hat and jacket as shown in the film. “Fans kept coming up to me at conventions telling me to have Fulci in his ‘hunting outfit’… which was always the plan from the start, so I knew right away I was on the right track,” states Murray. “I also wanted to give it a little more personality, so I have Lucio holding a pipe in one hand since he was an avid pipe smoker.”
The film CAT IN THE BRAIN features the acclaimed Italian horror maestro Lucio Fulci (director of such genre classics as ZOMBIE, HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY, THE BEYOND, CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD, etc.), starring in this blood-soaked epic as a director being driven insane by his own movies. Fulci is thrust into an ultra-violent nightmare of death and depravity where murder and madness consume his sanity in a vortex of violence! The film is currently available in a deluxe two DVD set from Grindhouse Releasing / Box Office Spectaculars.
Cult Collectibles has quickly become known for its attention to detail, incredible packaging and high quality products. This figure is of no exception and one that no true fan of horror should be without!
Lucio Fulci – CAT IN THE BRAIN “Weird Wobbler” bobblehead figure details:
-Pre-orders available now with figure shipping early December 2011
-Limited edition of 1,000 individually numbered figures

Ginger-Stein: Horror’s Hottest New Heroine Unleashed
The Ginger-Stein series brings the violence, drugs & sex of 1980’s horror films to the page
DETROIT:  On October 11th, artistic mastermind Dennis Willman reveals his newest creation, Ginger-Stein, to the world.  Ginger-Stein is the title of a multimedia horror/sci-fi project that is written, created and illustrated by Willman and unlike anything the horror audience has ever seen.  Ginger-Stein: Rise of the Undead is the first in a set of six comic book mini-series featuring horror’s hottest new heroine.  The story and artwork are deeply rooted in 1980’s horror and sci-fi nostalgia.  The violence is over the top, and like any good 80’s horror story, there’s sex, drugs and a breaking of all the rules of how to survive a horror film.  All characters in the series are based on models, including notable names such as Leslie Easterbrook (“The Devil’s Rejects,” “Halloween”) and Belinda Balaski (“The Howling,” “Pirahna”).   Primary cast models Monique DuPree, Elske McCain, Landyn Banx, Deneen Melody, Cari Thompson and Bobby Ray Akers Jr make up just a portion of this eclectic cast.  (Full character model cast list attached)
Ginger-Stein: Rise of the Undead begins the journey of a B-movie scream queen who suddenly finds that the world of horror she has worked in all her life has become a frightening reality. Through a freak set of occurrences, Ginger Stein (Madison Bannister) is transformed into the zombie-slaying character she has portrayed in film for years, forever altered physically and mentally.  But she must come to terms with her new life quickly as the phenomenon that caused her transformation bends the rules of reality and reanimates the dead.  As the Army of the Undead rise and begin to walk the earth, Ginger must rely on her wits, an arsenal of customized weapons and a sleek ’71 Hemicuda to save the world from complete destruction.
The concept of Ginger-Stein is a simple love letter to everything that Willman feels makes the horror and sci-fi genres great, in particular the 1980’s.   Willman explains that the story is “largely inspired in spirit by Romero’s “Dead” movies, “The Evil Dead” Trilogy and the “Phantasm” series.  The series as a whole plays with the established “rules” of the genre and bends them on their ear wherever and whenever possible.”
Visually, Ginger is the amalgamation of several actresses and models such as Elsa Lancaster, Allison Hayes, Beverly Garland and Sophia Loren.  Her body modeling includes inspiration from Lorretta Kenyon-Sand, Apple Angel and Sara Plotkin as well as various stock photography sources.   Willman wanted her to stand apart from other horror based female characters, hence the lime-gold green skin and multi-colored eyes. The white streak in her hair is a nod to Elsa Lancaster in character as “The Bride of Frankenstein,” which is also the inspirational genesis behind her name. Ginger’s weapons of choice, the sawed-off double barrel 12 gauge shot gun and the chainsaw, are directly influenced by protagonists in the ‘Evil Dead” and “Living Dead” films. The ’71 Hemicuda is Ginger’s signature vehicle and a nod to his favorite muscle car and the “Phantasm” series in general.
The artwork and visuals for the comic book mini-series is a combination of hand drawn characters and other elements combined with photography to create unique hyper-realistic imagery.  All of the people seen in Ginger-Stein are created by working with models who pose for specific characters, then drawn in graphite and digitally painted. Certain elements, like the ‘71 Hemicuda, are miniature models, photographed to be inserted with the artwork and rendered to blend in to create a seamless image.  In many ways the process is similar to the use of green screen in film.  Ultimately, this allows for a very unique art style completely different from what has come before.  Willman has taken great care in creating an aesthetic that is reminiscent of 1980’s horror films in lighting, color and tone.
In examining the plot of “Rise of the Undead,” the reader will come to see that as much as this is a story about zombies, monsters and horror it’s true heart lies in the journey of Ginger and those closest to her.  The dominant theme of “choice” runs through this story, posing the question: Can a person overcome the circumstances of their life and the events that define to truly decide whether they are “good” or “evil?” 
There are seven confirmed issues in the first mini-series “Rise of the Undead.” The first will be released October 11, 2011 and one issue per month until the finale, tentatively scheduled for May of 2012.  The project includes a series of comic book mini-series, a website, merchandising and a feature film.
Ginger-Stein: Rise of the Undead is currently being published under a co-venture by Iron Dead Studios and Comic Book Divas and  available for purchase at the Ginger-Stein website.  Pre-orders for autographed copies are being taken now.

But what they thought was their worst case scenario is only the beginning, as they are engulfed by the hellish forces that haunt the road - a road they realize they may never escape. Now captors and captive must fight together to escape the monstrous forces pursuing them and somehow survive... THE DEVIL'S MILE.

‘American Horror Story’ pilot episode rocked and shocked.


No show other than ‘The Walking Dead’ has kept me on the edge of a calendar waiting like a troubled school kid for the Friday bell like ‘American Horror Story’. Last night was that glorious bell and boy did it ring. When the first scene played right up until the last scene closed I was draw dropped and in marvelous awe. This is one show that has me hooked already. It is probably the one show that I would pick to be the break out star of the new fall schedule.

The eerie characters that seem constantly haunted in their own personal mind as well as the numerous dead things that have awakened to haunt them in the show swaying to demented parlor music and visualized through the eyes of hell this show is awesome! Only FX would have the balls to place a show on television that has the grit and guts to rival any premium channel line up.

Latest “Exhumed” Photo Features Michael Thurber



208303_207514065943865_193810800647525_740355_848193_n
Exhumed is an edgy horror film. It anticipates a move away from current, more supernaturally inclined fear flicks, towards something nastier and moodier. Exhumed deals with a twisted family that is seemingly unable to leave their own home. Their gnarled existence and mounting animosity finally gives way to violence and visceral panic. Exhumed’s closest living relatives would perhaps be The House Of The Devil, Ils, and The Strangers. The recently deceased would include the weirdo Hammer efforts of the late-60s and early 70s: The Devil Rides Out, Vampire Circus, etc. Exhumed shares with these movies a claustrophobic fear of what lies inside both the home and the head. Exhumed is produced by Ted Marr and Kristin Kayala. Richard Griffin directs a script written by Guy Benoit. It stars Debbie Rochon, Sarah Nicklin, Michael Thurber, Michael Reed, Rich Tretheway, Evalena Marie, Jonathan Thomson and Jocelyn Padilla.

Teaser Trailer For “Chill”


223152_193652324012667_171772782867288_540127_3473963_n
November 17, 1990, is a day of mourning for some...and for others, a lucrative opportunity.
On that date, eight university students were found murdered in the old arts building at the college. An anonymous source told police the 20-somethings were in the midst of a local role-playing game, called Chill.
The name of the game is to stay alive. But for the players that November evening, few would be getting up for another round.
But when a scheming student decides to profit from the tragedy and revive the whodunit game as a web series, the new players soon discover, for some, this game is still all too real…
