Vincent Price: 100 for his 100th

On Friday, May 27, 2011, if he was still alive, Vincent Price would have celebrated his 100th birthdayZach Bellissimo decided to honor the milestone by creating 100 Vincent Price drawings of the horror legend in the roles that made him famous.  What a cool idea!

Well done, Zach.  I’m sure Vincent Price would have gotten a kick out of them!

Criminal Macbre/The Goon: When Freaks Collide

That’s Fiona Staples’ cover to Criminal Macbre/The Goon: When Freaks Collide.  This one shot comic looks to be a winner.  Fans of Steve Niles’ Cal MacDonald stories [both prose and graphic] and Eric Powell’s The Goon comics will want to order a copy of Criminal Macbre/The Goon: When Freaks Collide since it features both characters in a story where…

Criminal Macbre/The Goon: When Freaks Collide is cowritten by Steve Niles and Eric Powell with art by Christopher Mitten.  In addition to Fiona Staples’ cover, there will be a variant cover by Eric Powell.   This bad boy is going to fly off the shelves so get your order in early if you want a copy!

Fright Night Too

That’s the poster for the remake of “Fright Night.” It kind of works.  I wish the large face in the background was more menacing, but it still ain’t bad.  If you’d like to see a slightly bigger version, you can over at IMPAwards.

Here’s the official trailer.   When I heard that Colin Farrell had signed on to play the vampire, I thought he was an odd choice.  Now, I think he may be the best part of the movie.  I’m a fan of the original film, and will give this one a shot.

Stephen King May Join The Walking Dead

Here’s a match made in, uh, heaven… Stephen King has confirmed to EW.com that he is in talks to script an episode of AMC’s hit series The Walking Dead.  Man, I would love to see that happen.  King and The Walking Dead’s executive producer, Frank Darabont, have a history of working together to create top notch entertainment [The Shawshank Redemption and The Mist] so odds are this will all work out.  I, for one, couldn’t be happier.

Dead Island Lives Again?

There’s a good chance that you’ve already seen the trailer to Dead Island.  The trailer went viral because it’s so good.  It is also pretty gory and very violent.   I’ve watched it several times and although it’s a trailer for a game, it’s as good as any recent movie trailer.   And wouldn’t you know it?  According to JoBlo, Dead Island may soon be on the fast track to the silver screen.
