Thanks to the so called 'fans' either not showing up to watch "Ash Vs The Evil Dead" or just stealing the show and watching it via bootleg, the final chapter of the iconic Ash Williams has come to an end. I figured he was going to call it a day anyway and retire the character, but not so abruptly. But even after all of that...it was a GREAT run.
I've always had a fond love for horror comedies. From the early days of Abbott and Costello to Mel Brooks to the modern classics like "Shaun Of The Dead," they are just so much fun. And I definitely put The Evil Dead Trilogy (or at least the last two installments) up there with the best. And besides the weird and wonderful imagination of Sam Raimi, the other reason for it's success is the weird and wonderful performance of Campbell. It's not that far off to say he's beloved to all of us horror fans. Hail to the King, baby...
The one and only Alice Cooper is the original pioneer of 'shock rock' and to many of the bands and acts that have followed in his lead, he is STILL the best.
His blend of heavy rock and horror theatrics have been a draw for generations of fans, whether they're into rock or metal. Or into horror movies. Or grand theatrics. He covers it all.
With the passing of many of our beloved horror icons (recently "Creature From The Black Lagoon"s Julie Adams left us), let's be grateful to the stars above that our shock rock king Alice Cooper is not only around, but kicking @$$ to this day! LONG LIVE ALICE COOPER!!!
"I Had A Slinky...But I Straightened It"
- Dr. Egon Spengler
On November 21st, 1944, Harold Ramis was born. Early in his celebrated career he was part of the legendary Second City improvisational comedy troupe and SCTV.
He is known for directing comedy classics like "Caddyshack" and "National Lampoon's Vacation." He co-wrote and directed the masterpiece that is "Groundhog Day." That alone cements his legacy.
But as a young child growing up in The '80's, I knew him specifically as Dr. Egon Spengler in the paranormal comedy franchise "Ghostbusters."
For a period in time I was obsessed with Ghostbusters. I loved the films, the cartoon show...I had the toys and to this day I still await the Hi-C Ecto Cooler when a new Ghostbusters film premiers.
He will forever be an important part of my childhood and he still means so much to me. As a fan of Ghostbusters, I've seen the good and bad in the fandom. But I'm praying that …
I put off watching the third entry of the HALLOWEEN franchise for a long, long time. It was in its day thrown out like a prodigal son. Knowing that it had nothing to do with Michael Myers or any of the original storyline made it unappealing.
Then one day it came on television. And I just said 'what the hell.' After seeing it, I found it to be an amazing horror film. Like an extended, sinister Twilight Zone episode, it played out beautifully. Lead by the fantastic Tom Atkins, it was a film that stood on its own. Had they called it just SEASON OF THE WITCH, I think the film would be a classic today. Some are already appreciating it as it's own unique horror classic.
Throw out what you know about the original Michael Myers saga. You know...scratch that. You CAN take the saga into account. They've already tampered with that mythos to the point where they've put out a new version erasing ALL that came before it except the first film. The storyline is such a mess when i…
