First Images Arrive From ‘Tremors: A Cold Day In Hell’
The first images have surfaced from the sixth film of the Tremors Franchise, Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell, showing the cast handling some serious hardware. In the film, “Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) and his son Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy) find themselves up to their ears in Graboids and Ass-Blasters when they head to Canada to investigate a series of deadly giant-worm attacks. Arriving at a remote research facility in the arctic tundra, Burt begins to suspect that Graboids are secretly being weaponized, but before he can prove his theory, he is sidelined by Graboid venom. With just 48 hours to live, the only hope is to create an antidote from fresh venom — but to do that, someone will have to figure out how to milk a Graboid!” Tanya van Graan, Greg Kriek, Jay Anstey, Jenna Upton, Jamie-Lee Money, Christie Peruso, Stephanie Schildknecht, Alistar Moulton Black, Rob van Vuuren, and Kiroshan Naidoo co-star. Don Michael Paul (Tremors 5) directed

Movie Review: The Gruesome Twosome is an Essential Addition to any Gore Hound’s Library!
In Herschell Gordon Lewis’ (The Godfather of Gore) The Gruesome Twosome we are introduced to an elderly woman and her mentally handicapped son; a duo with a strange hobby, namely scalping comely young lasses and selling their hair as wigs to meet customer demand (well, we learn of this after an introduction featuring two talking Styrofoam heads…because yes…). Anyway, before long a snoopy co-ed named Kathy begins weaving clues together and discovers the hair-raising truth, but can the demented duo be stopped before they kill again? Filled with off-kilter performances, a tongue in cheek story line, and crude yet effective (and groundbreaking) gore effects, The Gruesome Twosome is a ton of goofy, gory, fright flick fun! It also runs a lean hour and eleven minutes so it rock n’ rolls along at a good clip (even with padding such as the slumber party dancing and KFC chomping mash up, and Kathy’s ultra-shitty detective work…oh and the potato chip and fruit

Death Is Permanent In ‘Song Of Horror’
When you die in a video game, usually you restart from a checkpoint or where you last saved, but many gamers like a challenge, now comes the gaming term that either excites or terrifies players, “permadeath”. Permadeath is a gaming slang term for “permanent death” means exactly as it sounds, when you die in a game that’s it, game over, you must now start from scratch. Most games either don’t have this mechanic as it’s more or less a personal challenge made by the player themselves or in some games like Wolfenstein: New Colossus it’s a difficulty that you can unlock, but for upcoming survival horror game Song of Horror by Protocol Games it’s the game’s main feature. To ease your concerns about the permadeath mechanic in Song of Horror, it’s only permanent for one of 16 playable characters, that’s right, you can control 16 different characters! The game’s protagonist, Daniel Noyer, is at the center of the game’s story

Movie Review: Diverge is an Unforgettable Cinematic Experience!
In a post-apocalyptic, plague-ravaged wasteland, a man named Chris tends to the needs of his dying wife Anna…that set-up right there tells you that Diverge is gonna have a wee bit more gravitas than the flicks I usually review ’round these parts; you know the ones that usually start with ‘Holy hell there was nudity and ten deaths before the opening credits’!

Sound, Sex, And The Devil: ‘American Satan’ Is Simply A Triumph
As I sat down to watch American Satan I had the misconception that the film I was about to watch would be about music, I was wrong. What I watched unravel on the screen was much, much more. In the beginning, we see a rock band, “The Relentless”, come together, Johnny (Andy Biersack), Lily (Jesse Sullivan), Vic (Booboo Stewart), Leo (Ben Bruce), and Ricky (John Bradley), their manager. Playing their first big show at the Whiskey, they take the stage and see a packed house, that is until people’s social media notifications begin to pop up, notifying the crowd that Metallica is playing down the street. As the bar empties the band sees Elias, the record exec (Mark Boone Junior) one of the members met earlier in the day. As he walks out the band lays down their instruments and leaves. Just when they are at their lowest they meet the Devil himself, played by Malcolm McDowell. After they agree

John Carpenter Skipped A Few Of Those Terrible “Halloween” Sequels
Out of the 10 films in the Halloween franchise, one’s a master piece, two are good, one (Season of the Witch) is an underrated outlier, and 6 are pretty much crap. There’s a lot of convoluted and pretty terrible mythology, turning Michael Myers, one of horror’s most terrifying human monsters into a muddled mess of Shatner masks and kitchen knives. Full disclosure, I haven’t seen every Halloween film. But hey, neither has John Carpenter! But with the newest entry, Carpenter hopes to bring the 40 year old franchise back to its roots. In an interview with Rotten Tomatoes, Carpenter admitted he had skipped a few entries of the franchise he founded stating “You know, you know I talked about the Halloweens for a long time, the sequels — I haven’t even seen all of them. I don’t even know what really was there.” Carpenter has only had sporadic involvement in the film world the past few years, last releasing poorly
