Aloha, maniacs!  Spring may be just around the corner, but winter still has a few last gasps before she departs.  If her dreary death rattle has got you hiding under your covers, I have just the thing to get your blood pumping and palms a-sweatin’!  The Sci-Fi Spectacular 7!  Mr. Rusty Nails has assembled a [...]

Personally I’ve been a big fan of all of Rob Zombies movies, including the Halloween “remakes” he did as of late, plus one can’t deny how great of a film The Devils Rejects is. Because of this I am extremely excited to see his take on the Salem Witch history in his new film The [...]

Today we get our first look at the official Red Band trailer for the upcoming Evil Dead movie and I think it’s quite impressive. Without going the reboot route I think this new movie will offer up a nice chapter in the Evil Dead series and based off of the look of the trailer we [...]

Ho, ho, ho you merry maniacs!  Why not celebrate the holiday season a little early this year with the gift that keeps on giving: TERROR IN THE AISLES 13! This Friday, November 30th, Rusty Nails will be putting on his triple-film fandango at The Portage Theater.  Special guests include a man who is as demented [...]

Keep the spooky good times rolling, with the Long Beach Comic and Horror Con this weekend. With scheduled appearances by creepy-character-extraordinaire-turned-comic-creator Lance Henriksen (Aliens, Millennium, Stone Cold), and our main man Jim Mahfood (Saturday @ From The Land Beyond Booth #825 from 3-7pm), LBHCC is shaping up to be utterly rad. Did we mention there [...]

One of the best things about being a Nerd is the ability to endlessly gloat amongst your friends (those that you have) about having been “the first” to discover something. Whatever the medium, there is nothing quite like the thrill of dropping an “uh…yah” on the uninitiated, before it was, you know, cool. With that [...]

Hello, boils and ghouls!  I’ll save you from my second-rate Cryptkeeper act and get straight to the point: This weekend (yes, this weekend!), starting Saturday, Oct. 20th at noon and going full speed until Sunday, Oct. 21st until noon is Rusty Nails’ yearly morbid marathon of the macabre, his endurance of the eerie, his protracted [...]

The first official trailer for Rob Zombie’s upcoming movie The Lords of Salem has been released and it definitely has the Rob Zombie look and feel to it. Now, many people in the horror film community have varying opinions on Rob Zombies previous films but I have enjoyed all his work. House of 1000 Corpses [...]

Thankfully, schlock luminaries Troma Enterprises have just wrapped principal photography on “Return to Class of Nuke ‘Em High”, a sequel to their disgusting cult classic “Class of Nuke ‘Em High“. The classic tale of mutant high schoolers run amok, RTCNEH is sure to ooze Troma’s trademark so-bad-it’s-good sensibility. And what’s gratuitous violence without a little [...]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — Rusty Nails is the hardest working man in horrorbusiness.  He’s left his mark all over the Chicago horror scene with his relentless, multi-annual movie festivals and marathons.  He’s put a lot of blood, sweat, and even more blood into these events, and it shows. I’m [...]

It’s that time of year again when the days get shorter, the leaves start to change colors…and the bodies start to pile! That can only mean one thing: a 24-hour horror film fest at Chicago’s iconic Music Box Theater! So far this year’s line-up includes: The Burning The Golem Child’s Play Phantasm The Deadly Spawn [...]

Unholy moly!  That movie maniac Rusty Nails is up to no good again with this latest entry in his terrifying tryptic Terror in the Aisles.  Three times the gore, three times the blood-curdling screams, and three times the change of underwear!  See all the details below for a frightfully good time! TERROR IN THE AISLES 12  [...]

Hola que mamadas, putas de mierda del infierno!  Horror maven and splatter-jockey Rusty Nails presents the newest chapter to his intermittent spook series, Terror in the Aisles 11!  And what better weekend to have it on than Friday the 13th?  As a fan and oft-present loiterer at Mr. Nails gatherings, I, for one, can’t believe he’s come [...]

Our friends at Shout! Factory have just announced the launch of the Scream Factory brand, featuring Blu-ray releases of “Halloween II” (and the Michael Myers-less III), “Phantasm II”, “They Live”, and more. No one does more to bring nostalgia to the masses than Shout! Factory, and this collection should be no different. Also, it should [...]

Every so often, a film comes along with a “why didn’t I think of that” premise. “Asylum Blackout” is one of those films. The tale of three would-be rock and rollers (one named Max!) who work at the cafeteria of an insane asylum, AB has all the makings of a classic (and original) horror movie. [...]

If all this wet spring weather sends your bloodlust into overdrive, worry not: your needs can be satiated this Thursday, May 3rd!  Maniacal madman Rusty Nails is at it again, this time presenting a Larry Cohen extravaganza!  Not only will Mr. Cohen be there in person, but they’ll be debuting his new film!  Best of [...]

This has been a pretty monumental year in regards to horror-com-actioners (although this in itself is a bit of a misnomer, as almost all good horror movies have some humor). With films like Troll Hunter, Chillerama and Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil, gore-hounds everywhere have been treated to some of the best of these kinds [...]
