You know, the Japanese have done a lot of crazy sh!t in their time. So I don’t know how any video on the Internet that involves Japanese people could catch me off-guard. But then I click another link and am again amazed at how amazingly random and vulgar they can be. It’s amazing…

If you like Rambo, which you do, then this is basically the best thing you’ve ever seen.

I had a lot of nightmares as a kid. Thanks to these nightmares and various frightening films I’ve developed a hilarious set of OCD habits such as opening and closing closet doors before sleeping and checking behind the shower curtain before I saddle up to the toilet (you laugh but one day someone is gonna be in there and then who’s the dumb one!)

My imagination is easily inspired. For a while I couldn’t even watch a commercial for a horror movie because I knew those 30 seconds were enough to create an entire world of horrific fantasy that I’d be trapped inside for the rest of the evening. The one thing more unnerving then horror characters and sharks (I don’t swim in the ocean, at all, ever) is muppets.

Not all muppets, Kermit is fine, Fozzy, whatever. I’m talking about those LSD muppets that creators slip in films and TV shows, mixed with other cute, lovable creatures. They lure you in with Grover and then BAM, some abomination walks onto the screen that’s burned into your mind forever. Some horribly disfigured, warbly voiced monstrosity that may as well be drenched in blood, because thats how you’ll remember them, regardless.

Here’s five of the worst perpetrators. (more…)

With Halloween coming up, it’s prime-time to watch a horror movie – but where? Are any movies worth watching in theaters this weekend? What’s new on DVD? Do drive-in theaters still exist?

No worries, moviegoer – these questions and more will be answered after the jump. (more…)

Just when you thought the maximum carnage of John Rambo upped the ante for violent trailers Alien Vs. Predator: Requiem comes along to give Sly Stallone’s slasher-flick a run for its money.

AVP: Requiem’s “red band” trailer (read: not suitable for viewers under the age of 17) has been unveiled to the masses, sporting more gore-per-minute than most recent horror films. The final minute of the trailer alone shows lacerated Aliens, a blonde chick plastered against a wall, impaled Predators, decapitated dudes and some brunette chick unloading a gun turret. Yeah, it’s totally awesome.

The unholy union of Aliens, Predators and unsuspecting humans is slated for release on Christmas Day this year. At last, the perfect film to see with the family directly after morning mass.

Details on the storyline have been scarce but rumor has it that AVP: Requiem has a very-special secret that will cause sci-fi dorks to lose their shit. Does Sigourney Weaver make a cameo? Do Terminators show up to this Royal Rumble? How about Popples – do they make an appearance? We shall see soon enough.

Check out the “Red Band” trailer for Alien Vs. Predator: Requiem and John Rambo after the jump…
