Today we’re talkin’ forgotten surburban horror straight from the 1980s, in particular THE KISS from 1988! This cool little Canadian horror film just doesn’t get enough respect and it’s got a lot going for it. Starring the iconic Meredith Salenger as a grieving teen who’s got to protect her family and neighborhood from her evil…

Yes true believers it is NO joke-we survived Y2K!! The year was 1999 and tensions were through the freakin’ roof, all the rumored disastrous computer malfunctions combining with insane natural disasters, the world was on course for certain doom!!

I just watched what I consider to be a true bonafide lost 1980s gem, at least to me this movie was something I’d only found and watched by sheer chance.

Christmas lights, trees, tinsel and Santa decorations are carefully…

I always loved this particular comic book cover by John Byrne way back from 1985! Alpha Flight #22 is a fun issue with a great simplistic cover. I love when team titles have issues where you get either a solo adventure or a pair together, in this case two of my favorites the mutant twins…

Please tell me that you all have seen Pontypool? If not make it the next movie you check out! Seriously I voted Pontypool as the best horror flick of 2010 and believe me I am a tough critic these days when it comes to horror. If you have never seen it before it’s best that…
