Behold the Power of the Daleks!!!

This week the BBC & Fathom Events hosted an exclusive nationwide cinema event screening of Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks. This was the first time Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks had ever been shown in North America. Lost since its premiere on the BBC 50 years ago, the full six-part story has now been meticulously animated and features added bonus content including interviews with members of the original cast.

Reigning title holder of the World’s Youngest Doctor Who reporter and reviewer, our own resident Whovian Lindalee Rose headed to a local theater with some fellow Whovians to check out this exclusive cinemas event, 50 years in the making!

31 Nights of Nightmares, Part 6: The Sins of Jin Kelley

My esteemed associates, I am overjoyed that once again join me for Derek Easley’s 31 Nights of Nightmares! In this edition, I will review “The Exorcism of Emily Rose”, which was my fiancée Megan’s movie pick of this review series (so she’ll guest review it with me) and then I’ll take a look at “Sinister 2” to see if the Boogeyman still has teeth. But first, I want to spend some time with a very talented actor/martial artist/stuntman/producer, Jin Kelley.

Salutations to all you hairy full-moon mongrels from Derek Easley’s “31 Nights of Nightmares”, and I have some fresh reviews for you covering SyFy’s “Channel Zero: Candle Cove” (not perfect, but worth checking out as it is creepy and has a lot of potential) and the 2016 version of “Ghostbusters” (featuring entertaining scenes mixed in with numerous problems). But before I get that, I want to introduce you to my friend, entertainer Mac Beauvais (pronounced Bo-vay), who kind of lives and breathes horror and Halloween all year round!

31 Nights of Nightmares, Part 4: The Monstrous Alan Maxson

Hello to all you fiends, Derek Easley’s 31 Nights of Nightmares returns with a look at a horror documentary infused with politics called “Nightmares in Red White and Blue”, and then the movie that’ll make you keep your lamp on at night: “Lights Out”. But before we examine those films, I found a rampaging orc of man, a adaptable thespian who can morph into any monster you could imagine, creature actor Alan Maxson!
