Haunted Japanese Tunnel You Can Visit (On Youtube)

Youtube user TheJapanChannelDcom, an Australian now living in Japan with 98k subscribers, posts videos on his channel showcasing daily life in Japan. The Youtuber has video playlists for specific topics all intended to prepare and educate people who are planning to visit or move to Japan. His video posted on November 17th was a bit different from his regular posts, this time he was visiting (or at least driving through) a tunnel that’s said to be haunted. The video starts off with the Youtuber driving through the mountains explaining the story and history before driving through the haunted tunnel that opened in 1960. After exiting the tunnel the Youtuber pulls off to a foot of an old path leading to the original haunted tunnel that was opened in 1897. Japan has a history of stories of haunted tunnels as long as these tunnels themselves but that I’ll save for another time! For now, you can check out the double feature

Movie Review: Lilith’s Hell is a Devilishly Good Found Footage Flick

Two words for ya: found footage. All right, who’s still with me…hmm, a lot less of you then before that’s for damn sure. Now while the genre definitely is showing signs of fatigue, I for one think there are new and creative (or at the bare bones minimum “entertaining”) things you can do with the formula…let’s see if the maker’s of today’s review Lilith’s Hell managed to work any magic with the ol’ hoary chestnut… Three film makin’ pals traverse the countryside just outside of Rome to arrive at a remote house with the goal of making an artsy fartsy fright flick. After the arrival of Michelle, the lead actress of their piece, and her make-up artist, events begin going supernaturally south with alarming speed, as things begin to go bump (and moan) in the night. Our gang investigates with the end result of Michelle becoming the Devil’s concubine and playing host to a demonic entity that begins tearing into

Old Wives Tale: Chewing RottingFlesh

Anyone who knows me knows that there is never a moment when I am not chewing gum. I have never done a band gig, solo gig, taught any lesson, played any sport or anything else without a piece of gum being chomped between my molars. It is honestly even to the point where I chew it as I sleep. I have never lost a piece in my sleep either by swallowing or by having it fall out of my mouth where it would surely become so wrapped I my hair that I would be forced to shave my head. Gum is my comfort blanket. Now, surely you’re asking what this little bit of superfluous information has to do with horror…I’ll tell you. I have been spending time looking at old wives tales (check out the one about the creature Pinky Pinky). There is a tale in Turkey that deals directly with my semi-addiction to having gum in my mouth. Apparently,

Trailer For ‘A Quiet Place’ Speaks Volumes About The Terror That Awaits

Emily Blunt and John Krasinski star in A Quiet Place whose tagline is “Listen closely, move carefully, and never make a sound. If they can’t hear you, they can’t hunt you.” In the newly released trailer, we watch as the family is plagued by supernatural activity. The family, living a quiet life in their home in the woods, lead a silent life, only communicating with sign language. It seems there is a reason for that. If they make the smallest noise they will incur the wrath of something in the house. Krasinski not only co-stars in the film, he directed and he wrote the script along with Bryan Woods and Scott Beck. A Quiet Place opens in theaters on April 6, 2018, from Paramount Pictures.

Tara Reid: Target “How many more years are [the media] going to pick on me? There’re other new young bad girls. Move on to someone else.” – Tara Reid Putting it on the table…why Tara Reid? “But I keep working. I keep moving,” she said. “I’m not going to let these people not let me work because I’m trying to make a living. I’m happy with what I look like. I don’t care what people say about it. Sometimes the people it hurts a lot more is someone like my mom. [Haters] forget you’re someone’s daughter, you’re someone’s sister.”[1] SOURCE What did Tara Reid do to make people hate her?

Universal To Adapt Riley Sager’s Novel ‘Final Girls’ For Feature Film

Universal Pictures has obtained the rights to Riley Sager’s novel ‘Final Girls’ that was published by Dutton this past July. Praised by Stephen King, the novel has been compared to a horror version of ‘Gone Girl’. In the novel: “Ten years ago, college student Quincy Carpenter went on vacation with five friends and came back alone, the only survivor of a horror movie–scale massacre. In an instant, she became a member of a club no one wants to belong to—a group of similar survivors known in the press as the Final Girls. Lisa, who lost nine sorority sisters to a college dropout’s knife; Sam, who went up against the Sack Man during her shift at the Nightlight Inn; and now Quincy, who ran bleeding through the woods to escape Pine Cottage and the man she refers to only as Him. The three girls are all attempting to put their nightmares behind them and, with that, one another. Despite the media’s

I’m open to figuring out what it is. But I also don’t want to let down the original and its fans. I simply would not do something like that for the cash.” Peele has already signed a multi-picture deal with Universal to continue his series of social thrillers with the next film arriving in 2019. Here’s the kicker, it will have a budget 5 times the budget of Get Out. Peele is also currently
