Of the assorted cinematic horror themes, zombies are one of my favorite poisons. Sure, I derive a degree of enjoyment from the slashers, lycanthropes, spooks, bloodsuckers, demons and sea-beasts, but for some reason those doddering reanimated cannibals amuse me the most.

Currently known only as The Untitled Pang Brothers Horror Project (hey, I bet … Continue reading
Win a Copy of Elk’s Run # 1! Things went incredibly well with the Red Sonja contest. We received tons of responses and got some great feedback about the column (more trades, more Marvel, more small press and just “more” led the charge). So look for the Warrior-Scribes to integrate those comments soon with more … Continue reading
With The Grudge and Boogeyman keeping their pockets lined, Sam Raimi’s Ghost House Pictures continues to steamroll through the modest-budget horror genre, and their latest production Rise has snagged more actors in the gears. Tasty treat Carla Gugino, who so graciously displayed her rather astonishing curves in Sin City, has joined the ranks of the … Continue reading

Retired from the parcel delivery business, ex-military operative Frank Martin has relocated to Miami where he … Continue reading
