It was announced this month that AMC (you know that small network that has got that really unknown zombie show on it lol) has acquired the rights to Joe Hill's 2013 novel NOS4R2. That's pronounced NOS-FER-ATU which should give you some indication it's not about kittens and fluffy bunnies.

In an endless sea of found footage movies clogging up our DVD charts it's refreshing to actually see one that is not only entertaining but has an actual budget behind it.

Entries for the 15 Second Horror Challenge are Open for 2017... Get Involved!
They say third times a charm and we should definitely hope so, as the #15secondhorrorchallenge returns for it's third season this year. The brainchild of filmmaker Andrew Robinson, who felt inspired to create a network for up and coming horror directors and writers to showcase their collective works online. The 15-second challenge aims to freak YOU out in as little time as possible, not a bad idea in this busy old world we live in.

Lemmy vs Pinhead in 'Hellraiser/Motorhead' Crossover Video is Every Fan's Dream!
While the internet is awash with news on the upcoming Hellraiser sequel/reboot I'm more interested in checking out Hellraisers past, like the time Lemmy fought Pinhead. I can hear you saying what? When did this happen? Well, it was for promotion of Hellraiser III Hell On Earth back in 1992, Lemmy's band Motorhead did a song for the movie aptly titled Hellraiser. They naturally got to make a rock video to play on MTV and it just so happens they managed to get Doug Bradley to play his cenobite alter ego Pinhead.
