This afternoon I was lucky enough to snatch up the last copy of ‘Horns’ off the shelf of my local Wal-Mart. As soon as I got home I sat down to see for myself what all the buzz was about. I was immediately drawn into the tragic love story of a young woman, Merrin, who was murdered and a town convinced that her boyfriend “Ig” is her killer. Iggy, played by Daniel Radcliffe , is hell bent on finding the identity of her killer and bringing them to justice. After a drunken night Ig wakes up to find horns sprouting from his head. The strange horns have unique powers. Everyone who faces Ig must confess to him their darkest truths and cannot help but follow Ig’s commands. The effects and makeup in ‘Horns’ are fantastic. The imagery was incredible. ‘Horns’ truly has an amazing cast and Daniel Radcliffe really brings his character to life. I don’t think anyone could have

Voodoo Plague by Dirk Patton is an excellent book and although I hate to end the year on the start of a series, I’m thrilled to be able to round out 2014 on a positive note! The book was published just one year ago this month, so I’m grateful to be able to recommend it so highly so recently after its first birthday. Synopsis: John Chase has just arrived in Atlanta on a business trip when America experiences the worst attacks in history. Nuclear bombs destroy cities and the widespread release of nerve gas sends the majority of the surviving population into a murderous rage. Rescuing a woman who survived the attacks he must lead her to safety as Atlanta burns, raging infected roam unchecked and society disintegrates into savagery. Entertainment 5/5 & Writing Style 5/5 This novel is clever, fast paced, and incredibly engaging. The narration is in the first person perspective and the characters are incredibly likable. This,

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Robert Henderson, the director of Sunset Studios’ new indie movie KRUEL, a horror/thriller about an obsessed psychotic ice cream man who stalks and abducts a young woman. KRUEL will be in select theaters May 29, 2015. You can read the full article about KRUEL here: https://horrorfuel.com/horror/reviews-horror/a-first-look-at-kruel-2015 “Writer/director Robert Henderson fell in love with movies at a young age, in large part due to his mother’s (a former stage actor) love for everything entertainment. Before her death at a relatively early age, he promised her he would one day succeed in the passion they both shared. After attending the University of Colorado, where he studied theater as a minor, he began to pursue his passion as an actor and eventual screen writer. He co-wrote the drama To Heir is Human which was directed by his brother. He almost got his first big break when Universal Studios accepted his western script Come Hell or High-water

At Camp Dread nothing is what it seems to be. Campers who have legal, drug or other serious issues have been forced to go to the camp by their parents. The campers have a choice to go head to head in a competition on what they think is a reality show. The last camper standing wins one million dollars. What the campers don’t realize is that writer/director Julian Barrett played by Eric Roberts, has something more devious in mind for the teens. This movie has twists you never see coming. With a fresh idea and unique story line writer/director Harrison Smith brings back the feel of the slasher summer camp movies of the 80’s. Made on a small budget, Camp Dread still packs quite a punch. This movie is a great fit for slasher movie fans. Camp Dread stars Eric Roberts, who has had roles in over a hundred movies including The Dark Knight, The Human Centipede III and Assault

The original name was “Head Cheese”. *The bones that were used to decorate the interior of the house were actually real human bones.

An American Werewolf In London (1981) *An American Werewolf In London was the first movie to win an Academy Award for Best Makeup. Child’s
