Album Review: The Dillinger Escape Plan - "Option Paralysis"

It's been a long and twisted road since "Calculating Infinity," hasn't it?

"Option Paralysis," the newly released work from mathcore veterans and acquired taste The Dillinger Escape Plan, is an attempt to get back some of what the band has lost over time.

Trailer: Look Out, It's "Muckman"!

I'm a sucker for horror movies that look like they're just porn films with all the sex cut out. What can I say, I'm only human. "Muckman" seems to be just such a film. Rubber suits, terrible CGI and women wrestling in a pond for no apparent reason. These are only three of the reasons I plan on giving this movie a chance.

The story is simple. A TV crew searches the woods for the fabled Muckman and have some seriously shitty results when they find him. But I got a sneaky suspicion that there's more the Muckman then meets the eye. Could he have a heart? I can't wait to find out!

Video: First Look At "Priest"

A short segment on Entertainment Tonight aired recently showing off the latest comic book adaptation flick "Priest". Based on the TokyoPop comic the film follows a priest who goes against the church in order to track down the vampire horde that kidnapped his brother. Paul Bettany from "Legion" and a bunch of other movies you probably didn't like plays the lead role along with Stephen Moyer from "True Blood" fame.

Trailer: "Harpoon: Reykjavik Whale Watching Massacre" Gets New Title and Trailer

Between the whole Seaworld fiasco and the new teaser trailer for "Harpoon: Reykjavik Whale Watching Massacre", the orca's good name is really being dragged through the mud lately.

The Icelandic film industry’s first ever bona fide foray into in-your-face exploitation horror movie territory, "Harpoon: The Reykjavik Whale Watching Massacre" is a blackly comic and supremely gory affair that has led David Hayles of The Times to claim, “it’s tourists versus deranged whalers in this fright flick that’ll make you scream and blubber."

Trailer: "Wake" Hits South by Southwest

Let this be a lesson to you fellas, if you think you can drive the entire night don't ever let your wife try to convince you otherwise. Because if you let her win that argument you'll end up at some creepy motel with all kinds of messed up crap going on around you. This is what I learned from the trailer for "Wake" which showed this past weekend at South by Southwest.

On the Next Podcast: "Blood Creek"

This week we take on the Joel Schumacher flick "Blood Creek". The much hyped film revolves around two brothers who are trying to find answers about the mysterious history of their family dating back to the Third Reich. What they find is ties to the occult and the Nazi's plan to find the secret to eternal life. Sounds spooky, huh?

You can take a look at Todd's review here and check out the trailer below.

Album Review: Arsis - "Starve for the Devil"

The idea behind east coast thrash metallers Arsis is a good one. With “Starve for the Devil” the band has attempted to bridge the gap between European style artistic metal and American-born biting, ugly metal. The end result gets caught in the tug of war between the two ideologies and never really bursts through to meld them creatively.

Video: New Clip From "The Killer Inside Me"

"The Killer Inside Me" has apparently caused quite a shit storm over its intense brutality and all around good times overseas. Lucky for us Americans today we get to see a clip from the much anticipated Michael Winterbottom flick. A clip of three guys riding in a car talking about something completely out of context that confuses the hell out of me. But still it's got Casey Affleck in it and that guy's a dream boat.

"Antichrist" Now Streaming On Netflix

Rejoice fine people, you can now see Willem Dafoe's bare ass without having to leave the comfort of your own home. In other words "Antichrist" is now streaming on Netflix. And based on John's review this week it's worth a view.

Dream a Little Dream: My Horror Hound Weekend Brush with Corey Haim

There were plenty of celebrities at the 2009 March Horrorhound Weekend. Many whose work I have loved for so many years: the leathery and grumpy gramps that is John Saxon; the still-boobtacular Adrienne Barbeau; the “must've ate some bad food and is feeling sick, wink wink” Jason Mewes; that one really fat guy who thinks he can pull off a Freddy costume...they were all there. And as much as I'd like to meet them all, to do so at a convention just feels so, well, informal. Professional. Impersonal.

But none of that mattered to Corey Haim.
