Summary: Discover The Italian Zombie movie by Thomas Berdinski, in this love letter to 70s and 80s Italian exploitation you'll find humor, gore and over 2 hours of zombie goodness. Check out the movie at http://italianzombiemovie.com/. Be there or be dead. Next, it's a guest review of a famous 80s classic by none other than Root Rot himself from http://thewitchshatblog.com/.
The creation of Mark Ackland and Richard Durants, "Gruesomestein's Monsters" is
a series of short [5-minute] animated films about silly monsters... that premiered on the Nelvana anthology series "Funpak" on YTV.
The entire series is available online at YouTube. The Hyde/Jerk character really reminds me of the classic animated short "Hair-Raising Hare" and its Gossamer character. Unfortunately their production blog doesn't seem to have been touched since 2006 (which is a shame). Though I did find mention of the series again on Ackland's personal blog, Poop Tooth!, describing their search for a new distribution studio it was also outdated (last post in June 2008).
Worst feeling in the world, D.M. Looking back at this post now, I wonder if they ever released any sort of short compilation DVD or anything? Maybe I can get in touch with the creators and see...
If you're a monster kid who never grew out of your adolescent love of B-movie flicks and genre toys, you'll be right at home surfing the Strange Kids Club blog. With sections dedicated to trailers, video games, wrestling, and cartoons, it's got a little something for everyone who's young or young at (black) heart.
Strange Kids Club provides a visual smorgasbord of art and animation devoted to horror, the fantastic, and the mischievous kid in all of us who still insists sugar-packed cereals are a major food source and better come with a toy or else.
Strange Kids Club is an awesome repository for pop culture nostalgia. Lots of images and video links and great articles on trailers, cartoons, movies and wrestling. Lots of fun and the design of the site is fantastic.
Strange Kids Club is a safe haven for all the geeky kids who got up super early on a Saturday morning to watch really good cartoons, who could sing The Hulksters theme song, and who stayed up late that night to catch horror programming and other assorted B movie fare. If you are one for nostalgia and were a child raised in the 80's, then Strange Kids Club should be your one stop shop for reliving those childhood memories.
I have literally become obsessed with Strange Kids Club. I can't get enough of what you're dishing out and every time I visit the site, I'm reminded of everything in this world that makes it worth experiencing.
Nothing disturbs me more than becoming an instant fan of something so good, only to find out that there are no more being made. Sigh.
