“Project Metalbeast” VHS box art from the UK. It was released there simply as “Metalbeast”.
Part of a previous photo set but I thought that it was so cool it deserved its own post.
Awesome werewolf movie about a secret project to create werewolf shock troops. That project is combined with another designed to create a metal based skin and the resulting monster is impervious to harm. Especially to silver bullets.
Desperately needs a DVD release.
“Ticks” from 1993. Also known as “Infested” and “C2”.
A group of troubled inner city youths, including Seth Green and Alfonso Ribeiro (aka Carlton from “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”) are taken to a camping retreat to deal with their various problems. Little do they know that some local marijuana growers are trying to increase their crop with herbal steroids. The steroids also cause ticks that inhabit the plants to grow to tremendous size and start attacking humans! They are not just parasites any more!
Features awesome chunk blowing creature and gore effects and laundry list of cult stars.
More “Nightbreed” comics.“Hellraiser-Nightbreed: Jihad”.
Both “Nightbreed” and “Hellraiser” were given comic series by Marvel’s Epic Comics imprint. Epic was an attempt to compete with the likes of Dark Horse Comics with more adult themed comics including creator owned projects and film adaptations.
Since Epic had two great Clive Barker creations, they made the epic decision to cross them over. The result is an awesome confrontation between the Tribes of the Moon and the Cenobites.
In the story, The Cenobites were a driving force for pushing the Nightbreed into hiding. Since the Cenobites want to impose their idea of order on a chaotic universe, the Nightbreed’s uniqueness made them targets. Pinhead and a force of Cenobites have decided to finished the job the humans started and destroy the Nightbreed. It also brings into conflict Baphomet, the pagan god of the Nightbreed and Leviathan, the lord of the Labyrinth and god of the Cenobites, possibly the Devil himself.
It makes for a great horror crossover.If you can, track it down and read it. It is very well written, the art is beautiful, and along with the other “Nightbreed” comics it is the closes we will get to a sequel to the film. It comes in two books.
I just found out that “Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut” is finally getting a DVD release Shout Factory. I saw this film at Mad Monster Party in Charlotte back last year. It was the first time I had seen the film in any cut and it changed my life. It is one of the best horror films I have ever seen. It won’t be until next year, but I am still super excited!
Awesome indy metal band from California. All there music is WEREWOLF themed!
Grimwolf - The Night Is My Bride
LISTEN TO THEIR MUSIC!
Holy shit! “Frankenstein’s Army” is finally being made and it looks amazing!
It had been promised since the “Worst Case Scenario” debacle in 2006 or so.
I really, really want to see this movie.
On a related note, the same article where i found this said that there is going to be a sequel to “Dead Snow” and a second sequel to “Outpost”!
