My Favorite Modern Horror Movie Scream Queens

Derek

Ah, Scream Queens…every horror fan has a special place in their heart for these lovely ladies with their voluminous lung capacity and penchant for running across homicidal maniacs. Everyone knows the classic Scream Queens like Janet Leigh and her daughter Jamie Lee Curtis and then there are some of the lesser known but no less beloved Scream Queens like the 1980s fan favorites Linnea Quigley and Barbara Crampton. But who are the current crop of Scream Queens? Who are the ladies that are spending all of their movie screen time running for their lives from folks that are trying to kill them? Well I am glad you asked because I have a list of a few of my favorites after the cut.

Derek

aaou
In an attempt to get more eyeballs to check in on the less than stellar Marvel TV show that premiered last year to so much fanfare and quickly proved itself to be a milquetoast and drab hour of so-so television, the studio is attaching the debut of the trailer for the highly anticipated AVENGERS sequel to the 10/28 episode of the show.

Actual Cannibal Shia LeBouf

Derek

There once was a meme that was pretty popular in 2012 about TRANSFORMERS actor Shia LaBeouf being a cannibal based off of a song by Rob Cantor. There was an animated video and Tumblr blogs dedicated to it and everything. Well, rising from the outdated meme graveyard this Halloween season is a (pretty darn spiffy) live stage musical version of the “Shia LeBouf” song by the original songwriter himself. Just make sure you stay with it till the end.

Cover Me Monday: Postmodern Jukebox

Derek

This week’s installment is going to be a little different. Instead of focusing on a cover of a single song I figured I would put the spotlight on a band instead. Postmodern Jukebox, if you have not heard of them, is an assemblage of really talented singers and musicians who get organized by bandleader/pianist Scott Bradlee to perform re-imaginings of songs ranging from today’s biggest pop hits to classic pop from the last few decades.

Real Life Clowns Are Not Too Happy With American Horror Story

Derek

“Hollywood makes money sensationalizing the norm,” Glenn Kohlberger, the president of Clowns of America International said.
“They can take any situation no matter how good or pure and turn it into a nightmare. We do not support in any way, shape or form any medium that sensationalizes or adds to coulrophobia or ‘clown fear’.”

Someone should inform Mr. Kohlberger that there is nothing normal about clowns. They are creepy agents of Satan sent to torment the dreams of mankind.

Whitney Houston’s Mom Is Absolutely Captivating

Derek

Aretha Franklin is out promoting her upcoming CD of cover songs and one of her first stops was the LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN to perform her rendition Adele’s “Rolling In The Deep”. And as much as I love Aretha and think she sounds better singing this song live than on the CD (thanks to no Auto-tune), this performance is great mostly because of the taciturn presence of Whitney Houston’s mom, Cissy.
