Have You Seen The Walking Dead’s Red Nose Day Special ?
For this year’s annual Red Nose Day, Norman Reedus and Andrew Lincoln, along with Steven Yeun, Melissa McBride, Josh McDermitt, Rose Marquand, Christian Serratos and David Morrissey teamed up with special guests Jeff Goldblum, Chris Hardwick, Dax Sheppard and Yvette-Nicole Brown to make a cross-over spoof of The Walking Dead meets Star Wars. The idea for the skit came during a conversation between Reedus and Lincoln after a long, hard day on the set of The Walking Dead. Unfortunately, the spoof trailer will never become a full special. At the end of the clip we see Reedus turn to Lincoln and say “We ain’t doing that,” as Lincoln covers Reedus’ nose with fake blood. So, what is Red Nose Day?

Yakuza Apocalypse (2015) Horror Film Review
“Yakuza Apocalypse” is a 2015 horror film directed by one of the best and brightest directors Japan has to offer: Takashi Miike. By now most horror fans are familiar with his some of his works such as “Audition”, “13 Assassins” and what I personally consider his magnum opus; “Ichi the Killer”. As you may have guessed, I am a huge Miike fan and get gleefully excited whenever he releases a film! I was beyond thrilled when I found out he had another film in the works named “Yakuza Apocalypse”. His films have gotten tamer over the years, in my humble opinion anyway, but that doesn’t mean they have dropped in quality. I’ve enjoyed every one of his films I have seen. Some more than others, but you get the point. One of the main characters, named Kyoken, is played by a very familiar face in that of Yayan Ruhian. He is instantly recognizable from the memorable part he played in,

Eli Roth’s Sequel To The Green Inferno Still Alive
After a long delay, Eli Roth’s highly anticipated cannibal film The Green Inferno saw its DVD release in the U.S. back in January of this year. Before its original release date in 2013, Roth announced that Nicolas Lopez, friend and frequent collaborator, would be directing a sequel, Beyond the Green Inferno. News about the sequel has been nonexistent since, until now. It seems the film is still alive and in the works. The Wrap uncovered a little tidbit while writing a story about Roth producing a short film for his digital genre brand Crypt TV. Near the end of the write-up The Wrap stated “The writer-director-producer is currently in development on a sequel to his slacktivism slasher film The Green Inferno.” That gives us that we will indeed see a sequel at some point. As for who will be directing and if the title will remain Beyond the Green Inferno, we do not know at this time. The Green Inferno,

Leatherface, Norman Bates And Buffalo Bill, All Inspired By One Man And This Is His Story
WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT AND IMAGES ! Three of the most recognized characters from classic horror films are Leatherface, Buffalo Bill and Norman Bates. All three are based on the true story of one killer, Ed Gein. Of course, several other films and series have taken inspiration from the Gein story, including Rob Zombie’s House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects, and “Bloody Face” from American Horror Story.

His over-religious mother, Augusta, was determined to keep Gein and his brother isolated as much as possible, believing there was evil everywhere you turned in the world. She was so obsessed with sin that she once poured boiling water over Gein’s privates when she caught him touching himself. Gein’s father, a
