Halloween

I entered this in this week's Cracked photoplasty competition. The theme was "movies remade as light-hearted romantic comedies".

Please join me in wishing Crystal Math a kickass, glorious happy birthday! For those of you who have not yet met her - she's a warm, genuine and all around lovely human being and I look forward to introducing her to all of the east coast Horrorthonners when we visit New York and Rhode Island next month (2/18-2/26, details to follow!)

Mary Shelly's Frankenhole Season 2 Starts Tonight!

Set your DVRs! Or stay up late! It starts at quarter past midnight.

A lot of people worked really hard on this, but if you want to look for things I made personally, there's the stage set, the backstage set, and the stake-firing vampire hunter's musket. Enjoy!

Totally worth 2 hours of your time

In 2009, Casey Pugh asked thousands of Internet users to remake "Star Wars: A New Hope" into a fan film, 15 seconds at a time. Contributors were allowed to recreate scenes from Star Wars however they wanted. Within just a few months SWU grew into a wild success. The creativity that poured into the project was unimaginable.

SWU has been featured in documentaries, news features and conferences around the world for its unique appeal. In 2010 we won a Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Creative Achievement In Interactive Media.

Finally, the crowd-sourced project has been stitched together and put online for your streaming pleasure. The "Director's Cut" is a feature-length film that contains hand-picked scenes from the entire StarWarsUncut.com collection.

Slow news day: What was the first concert you ever saw?

The first concert I ever saw live was Duran Duran in 1983 at the Worcester Centrum in Worcester, MA. My ticket cost $15 (yes I’ve kept all my concert stubs) and I believe I attended the show with Octo and a kid named Roger. We left before the encores because we didn’t know there was such a thing as encores. The next day in school I learned that Duran Duran played for an additional 30 minutes after we left. The last show I saw was Soundgarden at Mohegan Sun last summer. My ticket cost $200. My next show is the recently reunited Van Halen (March) and I'm checking out the action with Deroaches. I’m bored folks, tell me your tales!

So I googled "Horrorthon" today, and discovered that for that moment at least our little blog was the first item that came up! Pats on the back all 'round! We're number 1!
