You will be missed.

You will be missed. The world has one less good Corey in it (not many left).

I think I’ll watch Lost Boys tonight.

Exactly what it says it be.

I’ve been behind recently. Which is why I’m just now getting around to writing about the gifts I got for xmas. I got the requisite clothes from mom, lots of great/terrible candy, books, and of course, toys.

Some of the stuff I got is relevant here. Actually, one piece in particular is ridiculously relevant, and for that, my mom is the most awesome mom on earth (or in hell).

So here goes …

You know what are always good?  Horror movie remakes.  I can’t think of a single horror movie remake (barring The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, My Bloody Valentine, Friday the 13th, and Halloween) that has ever sucked.  Thank God there are 11 more on the chopping block.

Oh look, Suspiria is being remade.  Finally, right!?  I knew you were thinking that.  I hope it has more tits this time.

I’m not one of those people who thinks remaking a movie taints (snicker) the original or somehow destroys it, but so many of them are just unnecessary.  It’s not difficult to come up with an original concept for a horror movie, and since the whole point of horror is to scare, doesn’t it make more sense to try to provide something original?

Apologies to Dawn of the Dead, which I thought was fantastic.

This is so true.

I ran across these awesome hybrids of Star Wars and “classic” (MGM style?) monster figures while reading up on Toy Fair. Apparently they’re bobbleheads and will be released later this year. I appreciate their stupid faces, just because I love anything evocative of the classic MGM monster movies.

Since Star Wars’ legacy now seems to be relegated to toys and not movies, so they might as well be cool toys.

Good read here. Talks a lot about The House of the Devil and how he tries to engage his audience with his films.

I’m sad that Cabin Fever 2 never got the proper treatment. Not fair.

Here at the Devil’s Demons, I’ve decided to take on the task of educating both myself and readers alike. So let’s start a little vocab study. We can kinda pretend this is something like Mr. Roger, or Sesame Street.

Today’s word is Alliumphobia, or  the fear of garlic. Many of you reading this may possess such a fear, as do many of our favorite characters from the anals of horror. Alliumphonbia can be a crippling disorder, resulting in:

breathlessness, dizziness, excessive sweating, nausea, dry mouth, feeling sick, shaking, heart palpitations, inability to speak or think clearly, a fear of dying, becoming mad or losing control, a sensation of detachment from reality or a full blown anxiety attack.

As you may have heard, vampires suffer dearly from this phobia. Vampires and garlic do not mix well. As a result, garlic has become a staple in any vampire hunter’s arsenal. If you need some garlic, here are a couple of options:

Garlic Mints

Easy to fool vampires with, garlic mints are a nice choice. Most vampires have bad breath anyways, so they won’t be suspicious when you offer them a breath freshener.

Garlic Beer

Apparently, some crazy people out there have been brewing garlic beer. This seems ridiculous, but I presume you could get a vampire drunk enough and start slipping him pints of garlic beer after a dozen buds have already been knocked back.

Garlic and Shots

Take a vampire to London, and then take them to Garlic and Shots. They’ll think you’re being cute, and you can probably lie and say that it’s just “garlic flavoring” and not real garlic. Say it’s a place where vampires go to mock humans. They’ll think it’s very cute and kitschy and will play along. I’ve been there several times, many while living there, and the potency of the shots promises to knock even the most durable vampire down.

I always wanted a cat named “Dethkat”. Homage to my obsession with Metalocalypse. Might just need to steal this cat:
