Submitted by Carly on Wednesday, Oct 19th 2011

Have you ever wanted to be the final girl/guy in your very own torture porn movie? Yeah, me neither but for those people who are sick of the typical ghosts and ghouls type of haunted house, the Blackout Haunted House in New York City may be for you. In the house you'll be handcuffed, bags will be placed over your head, you will be handled by the actors and you'll even be subject to water torture. And you'll have to go through it alone! Before going in, you must sign a waiver explaining the rules of the haunted house:

The Rules:
1. YOU MUST WALK THROUGH ALONE.

How to describe a show that's thirty years in the making? An event so domineering it was called, without hyperbole, the largest metal show that the East Coast has ever seen. It was the culmination of a timely anniversary, fan support and the consistently discussed dream of all metal fans world wide. We asked and eventually, with some prodding, New York City's collective thrash prayer was answered.

So, the Big 4 and roughly fifty thousand of their closest friends came by all roads and paths to Yankee Stadium for an evening of heavy metal history and fury.

Miramax is pushing the release date of Guillermo del Toro's "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" to sometime in January because of changes in ownership at the company. Normally I'd say this means the film is going to be a pile of doodie but it looks awesome so I'm confused. What does it all mean, Hollywood?!

Jamie Kennedy is going to be producing a horror/comedy currently titled "Granny". There's even a promo clip already made for the flick and it was created over a couple hours in a grocery store parking lot. So there's the quality we're shooting for folks.

For those of you across the pond The Prince Charles Cinema will be screening the critically acclaimed film "Big Tits Zombie". What's better is if you dress up as a "Big Tit Zombie" you'll get in free. Everyone else you're going to have to pay your own way.

Finally, for those of you in the NYC area or who are just a fan of good things in general the NYC Village Halloween Parade needs your help. The organizers are looking for donations to help keep the parade alive and if you don't donate you're pretty much saying you hate Halloween. Is that what you want me to think?

In Real People News:

An Arizona man was stabbed last week after he denied his blood to his Vampire roommate. Man, that really sucks huh? Get it? Sucks! Vampires? I'm here all week folks.

On this day in history:

1810 - The German festival Oktoberfest was first held in Munich to celebrate the wedding of Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen.
