So, there were good things and not so good things to come out of this election cycle. To me, the worst of the worst were the dumbass 'pundits' mouthing their usual drivel, gazing into their crystal balls, making dire pronouncements but seemingly unable to respond to a direct question with a straight forward answer. Same idiots, different election (not to be confused with this blog's header). Why do...

by Steve Dollar Like swallows to Capistrano, the zombies return to the Catalonian seaside resort of Sitges every October—at least they have since 1967—and their number keeps growing. The 42nd edition of the Festival Internacional de Cinema Fant� stic was a breeding pool for all things undead or otherwise beyond mortal kin or consciousness. Yet, Hollywood entertainments like Zombieland...
Year: 2009 Director: Rob Zombie Screenplay: Rob Zombie Starring: Sheri Moon Zombie, Scout Taylor-Compton, Malcolm McDowell, Brad Dourif The first film was dull, loud and self indulgent, great stuff eh? Well if you liked Rob Zombies drab retread of John Carpenter's seminal horror classic, you'll love H2. It's even more simple-minded, it's louder and overloaded with gallons more self-indulgence. How...
In what is set to be the biggest, baddest and most gruesome convention to hit Las Vegas, Fangoria’s Trinity Of Terrors continues to add to the list of scream-worthy celebrities set to attend the three day event. The multi-media horror event which will take place Halloween weekend had previously announced guest appearances from the likes of John Waters (PINK FLAMINGOS, SEED OF CHUCKY) and Malcolm...
If you've ever felt that there wasn't enough metal music in cartoon form, then this is just the show for you. Metalocalypse has already had a couple of series dating back to 2006, so I'm a little slow on the uptake, have just borrowed a boxset of the first series, but I'm glad I checked it out. It follows the band Dethklok, who for reasons that aren't really explained, have got so massive and popular...
Halloween II (2009) Dir: Rob Zombie Cast: Tyler Mane, Scout Taylor-Compton, Malcolm McDowell, Brad Dourif Rob Zombie’s remake of Halloween was, make no mistake, awful, bad enough that to call it his ‘best’ film would be to insult things that are actually good, it was his least worst film though. He’s regressed. There are, of course, plenty of horror films worse than Halloween...
My heart skipped a truly confused beat twenty minutes into ‘Halloween II’ when Malcolm McDowell’s Dr.Loomis showed up, in present chronology, acting as though his ON-SCREEN DEATH in the first film had never occurred. No explanation was ever given. What sort of shitty screenwriter forgets he killed a character in the previous film? Answer – Rob Zombie. When not inserting bizarre,...
Alexandra Susan Weisman, a daughter of Suzanne Steinfeld Weisman and Hugh Stix Weisman of Manhattan, is to be married on Martha’s Vineyard Sunday to Malcolm Hume McDowell III, a son of Kathleen Otto McDowell and the Rev. McDowell Jr., of Harwich, Mass. The bridegroom’s father, an Episcopal priest, is to officiate at the Gay Head Lighthouse in Aquinnah, Mass.
What happens when rival religions meet? Say, the Taliban and Christian soldiers, or Mormons and Mennonites? If history is any judge, it's usually not a pretty picture of tolerance and peace. In The Wicker Man aka Anthony's Shaffer's The Wicker Man (1973), a devout Scottish Christian cop investigates an apparently missing girl on the offshore western Scottish island of Summerisle , only to find that...

The latest in an extended run of films about blurred reality and fiction (see Galaxy Quest and Tropic Thunder), Disney's Bolt is a significant improvement for the Mouse House's CGI animation department, no doubt thanks to the arrival of Pixar's John Lassetter. Bolt concerns the eponymous dog ( John Travolta ), unknowing star of a successful TV show that casts him as a super-canine guardian for plucky...
TIFF'09-ness September has sure been a month of TIFF and with the festival wrapped up , so a fair few Mondays this month were spent in various theatres and not collecting TwiNews. But, the good thing is the festival featured various TwiStars and vampire films so all is not lost! In fact, one of the films I was sad to miss was the rock it to ya vampire film Suck , but low and behold it got picked up...
