OK. If you live in the NYC area, you have no excuse for missing My Boyfriend is a Zombie, showing June 3rd to the 27th at the Theater for the New City.

From the show’s website:

In William Electric Black’s newest musical, two guys are in love with the same girl. One’s a monster and the other’s a wise guy with quick fists. Who’s gonna get to take her to the dance? Sounds like “Oklahoma,” doesn’t it? Fooled ya, it’s “My Boyfriend Is A Zombie.” The year is 1958 and the dance in question is the Springtown High School Halloween Hop. This time, the monster gets the girl.

This just sounds amazing. If nothing else, it’s a great excuse to either dress up as a zombie on a non-Halloween day, or get shitty with friends and be cultured and see some theater instead of a movie.

If you happen to live in NYC, stop by the Last Rites Gallery this Saturday, April 10th to check out the opening of Chet Zar‘s show.

Shit’s badass.

The Nightmares Haunted House is up and running again in NYC (already has been for a few weeks in fact). I went once and honestly wasn’t all that impressed, but that was before they had a badass website that pimps their place pretty good, so I’m thinking I’ll give it a chance this year.

UPDATE: So I may have spoken too soon … check out this review on The Horror of It All … sounds like it’s less bite than desired.

If you’re in NYC, then get your ass over to the Pyramid tonight for Grind My Gears, a collection of horror bands, and all kinds of zombie fun.

If you’re in the NYC area and have nothing to do tonight, I recommend heading to Brooklyn Bridge Park and checking out Edward Scissorhands, playing as part of the Movies with a View series. You get to see a good movie for free, plus you get a pretty kickass view:

While not exactly a horror film, I still love Edward Scissords for the Tim Burton connection and generally creepy visuals the movie provides. Either way, it’s a good excuse to sneak booze into a park and get out and enjoy the last few days of summer before your life becomes consumed with Halloween season.
