Alice Cooper Continues To Terrify With New Album

At 69 years old, The King of Shock Rock, The Master of Musical Macabre, Detroit’s Demon of Darkness, Alice Cooper has a new album. I know, when Cooper first burst onto the scene with his group ‘The Spiders’ he looked like a malnutritioned freak who couldn’t sing and wouldn’t last a year (either because he would fail in the music world or die due to some chemical use). But 54 years and 25 (now 26) albums later – not including guest appearances and group projects like “Hollywood Vampires’ – Cooper is still going strong and still as dementedly decadent as always. By his own admission, Cooper has survived this ling because he was successfully able to separate the character of Alice Cooper and the man who created him. In his off time, Cooper golfs, hangs out with grandchildren and substitute teaches a Sunday-School class. But when that iconic makeup goes on, it is no holds barred horror. The first single,

David Bowie Starred In A Little Known X-Rated Short Horror Film (Watch)

The world mourned the day that music icon David Bowie passed away. One of the worst parts of losing him is that we will never see or hear anything new that he had created. While it is not new, there is something of Bowie’s that you probably haven’t seen before. Bowie starred in a little-known short horror film titled The Boy in 1968. Exclusively shown in porn theaters when released, director Michael Armstrong’s film scored an X-rating due to the violence in the 13-minute film. The story centers on an artist (Michael Byrne) who paints a picture of a young man. The image somehow turns to flesh and stalks the artist. Terrified, he tries to kill the supernatural intruder (Bowie). Rest In Peace David Bowie 1947-2016

‘Death Pool’ Dives onto DVD and VOD June 20th

Those who like a little murder with their sun and fun having something to look forward to on June 20th with the release of Death Pool. While I’m not sure if hot young Pool Cleaners exist outside of porno’s, Death Pool turns one into a killer with its main man Johnny Taylor (god that’s a great name for a killer.) I’m not sold yet on a Slasher based around drowning (the gore hound in me needs some blood to wet my appetite), but Death Pool doesn’t look half bad. There’s a fine line between goofy and scary with films like this though, so we’ll just have to wait until the 20th to see whether Death Pool will make a splash or sink to the bottom.

Take A Ride Down ‘Lost Gully Road’ In It’s First Teaser

For fans of a horror down under, Lost Gully Road, the new Austrailan Supernatural Thriller from Johnny Ghost director Donna McRae might be just what it takes to scratch that Aussie itch, with the first teaser dropping onto Youtube. And teaser is the right word for it, because this little trailer doesn’t tell you jack shit about the movie. Not that going into a movie knowing jack shit about it is necessarily a bad thing. Nothing ruins a good twisty movie like spoiling the hell out of it in the marketing. From the press release, Lost Gully Road “tells the story of Lucy, a directionless young woman who travels to a secluded cottage in the forest to wait for her sister. With no television and little communication with the outside world she spends her days alone and drinking to pass the time. That is, until her unexpected host decides to keep her company…” Wow, spending days alone and drinking to
