Cut to Tess Barryman (Tara Reid) auctioning off said collection which showcases works featuring that ol’ Greatest Hits collection of bad behavior; The Seven Deadly Sins. A real rube by the handle of Dylan Wilson (Lukas Hassel), along with his wife Gina (Jessica Morris) purchase that arcane art, and actually hold on to it even though a priest (Robert Donavan) who’s obviously seen some shit warns them that the putrid paintings can corrupt people who most identify with one of the sins. Various horrible happenings ensue (read: sex with a demon among others) with only a slim chance of ending the evil in sight! Look, you cats n’ creeps look for the straight dope from yours cruelly, and I’m gonna lay it on ya; Art of the Dead is one hell of a surreal fright flick… and that’s why I

News first came back in 2018 that Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, the dynamic duo behind Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, were working on a horror-comedy series titled “Truth Seekers“.

Hopefully, it won’t be long until a premiere date is announced, and when it is you’ll be the first to know.

Blackburn’s Cryptid Casefiles, hosted by cryptid expert/author Lyle Blackburn, sets it’s sights on the events of the ol’ summer of ’72; when a hairy sumbitch bugged the shit outta the residents of Louisiana, Missouri. Locations are visited, the locals are chatted up… business as usual; but the real feather in the creepy cap is the presentation of clips from a rediscovered film on the subject from decades past. All of this blurs the line between fantasy and reality as Seth Breedlove and Small Town Monsters have changed up their basic straight-up documentary style format and have presented some elaborate re-enactments with the inclusion of the faux fright film footage (not to mention the addition of Blackburn rather than having Breedlove himself narrate the events) in the style of one of my fav flicks The Legend of Boggy Creek, and the end result is a ton of fearsome fun! As one would expect, the events presented in the “lost” film don’t
