Horror Headlines 6/4/08
If you live in the US, tonight marks the television debut of NBC's "Fear Itself", which of course is the new incarnation of the "Masters of Horror" series formerly on Showtime.

Man claims that within a month he will reveal a car to the world that runs mostly on water. Genius, create a car that runs on the one thing that's becoming almost as scarce in the world as gasoline. It's foolproof.
Good news! Icelandic residents have spotted the first Polar Bear in Iceland in nearly 20 years. The bad news however, is that police shot it.
