Horror Headlines: Wednesday December 17th, 2008

FearNET online is now streaming select episodes of the NBC series "Fear Itself". Right now, you can go and check out Stuart Gordon's "Eater", which if you ask me is by far the best the series had to offer.

Jim Caveizal's "Outlander" will finally get a limited release January 23rd, 2009. The film follows the shit that hits the fan after an alien crash lands on earth during the time of the vikings, accidentally bringing an extraterrestrial predator with him in the process. Sounds kick-ass to me my friends.

Clips from David Goyer's "Unborn", his PG-13 thriller starring Odette Yustman which gets released January 9th, 2009.

In Real People News: 

Doctors remove tumor from newborn's head, find the beginning formations of two feet, a hand and a thigh. Excuse me while I vomit.

Man gets thrown up in the air at his retirement party, colleagues fail to catch him and he dies. Where's Alanis Morisette when you need her.

No officer, I didn't suffocate that prostitute with a plastic bag, I was merely holding it at head level, and she turned and walked into it. Then, you know, I held it shut until she stopped breathing. But it certainly wasn't intentional.

Anti-kidnapping expert... gets kidnapped. That's it for me folks, you've been a great crowd.

On this day in history: 

1997: An episode of the animated TV show Pokémon induces seizures in at least 685 Japanese children. The convulsive sequence contains the depiction of a "vaccine bomb," followed by the flashing red eyes of a rat monster. Of those afflicted, 200 remain hospitalized the next day.
