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

I think I’ll watch Lost Boys tonight.

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 …

Gremlins Toys

I have so much shit on my desk at work, especially toys. I really don’t need anything else. I already look like a pedophile. Why not throw a bit more gas on the fire? So mom picked up these Gremlin toys for me, which are actually pretty cool.

Creepy Evil Statue

Every other year or so, mom likes to get us a gift from Jim Shore productions. This year, it was this little feller:

Very evil. Very cool. In a Maleficent sort of way, except not nearly as hot.

Castle Legos

My brother gave me a brand new set of Castle Legos. This shit is awesome:

I never got a skeleton in my Legos before! What a glorious moment this is. There is a skeleton leader, and two skeleton cronies. If you get this set, I recommend building it while wasted.

I couldn’t wait to get home, break open some wine, and build away. If only I could’ve had wine when I was a kid, I might never have grown up (or grown bored), as I would’ve gladly spent my years building Legos and slowly descending into full-blown alcoholism.

Lady Gaga - The Fame Monster

This counts. It has “Monster” in the title for fuck’s sake! Either way, this album kicks ass, and if you can’t enjoy it for what it is, then you suck, and you don’t know how to have fun. I have no pity on your cursed soul.

So I’ve decided to scrap the idea of a simple vocabulary lesson, and instead write the ABC’s of fears. Makes sense anyways, and is one less dimension I need to cover (all fears are evil/dark in some way, so I don’t have to spend as much of my precious time searching). So today I give you Blennophobia.

Blennophobia is a “morbid fear of slime”. Here are some people who do not suffer from such an ailment:

Slimer

Slimer most certainly does not possess this fear. Quite the contrary. He essentially has “antiblennophobia”.

Toxie

Certainly no ailment here. Toxie minus slime is like The Devil’s Demons minus me.

Morbid Angel

How can you be scared of slime, yet you have a song titled “Where the Slime Lives.” Or actually, maybe they in fact have blennophobia, and are so scared of slime that they had to write a song with it. But most likely not.

TMNT

Are you fucking kidding me?

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:
