Universal Announces ‘Monster Mash’ Musical Feature Film

Grammy-nominated director Matt Stawski will be working in the lab late at night to give us an eerie sight, a musical feature, Monster Mash, for Universal Pictures.

Blu-ray Review: My Bloody Valentine (1981)

One fateful Valentine’s Day up Nova Scotia way, a mine explosion killed a bunch of dudes because those in charge of making sure shit like that didn’t happen were partying hardy at the local holiday dance.
