Fifty years from now, 2016 will be remembered as a outstanding year for horror films in general. There were some sizable horror hits at the box office this year, and while not all of the bigger hits were especially good films, it’s never a bad thing if the genre you’re particular to has a good year. But I’m not here …

Tusk (2014) is Kevin’s Smith second horror comedy with the script germinating from the SModcast podcast: episode 259 The Walrus and The Carpenter. The film may be a bit uneven and controversial but the performance by Michael Parks as Howard Howe has a number of the grue-crew saying he should be considered for an Academy Award…but realize, sadly, it never will. Dave shares the …

The Sacrament (2013) has its roots firming grounding in the true story surrounding the Jonestown tragedy from 1978. The similarities have many of the HNR grue-crew scratching their heads wondering what the film’s director Ti West is really up to. The discussion gets heated beginning with an explanation of what happened to covering The Guest. Doc shares the horror news of the week with …

It’s time to discuss the worst horror films of the year, the most dreadful crap of 2014.

What films dropped the ball, meandered in their narrative or, worse, were simply dull to the …

Say hello to “Mr. Tusk” and “White Walrus” two new cannabis …

Last night at SDCC Kevin Smith rolled out the trailer for ‘Tusk’ and it is one strange, silly piece of awesome. Micheal Parks steals the show in this trailer which outlines the tale of man who is drugged and then surgically transformed into a Walrus. Ready to take a look? [youtube]http://youtu.be/BCQJnOn0ru0[/youtube] You’re either going to love it or hate it …

Good news for Kevin Smith fans – of whom I consider myself. A24 has announced the release date for ‘TUSK’ and it’s Sept. 19th. ‘TUSK’ will be getting the SDCC treatment when Kevin takes to Hall H for “The Musk of Tusk: An Evening With Kevin Smith.” Everyone is assuming a trailer will be making its debut and if it …

Kevin Smith is down in North Carolina working on his new horror film titled TUSK. It should sound familiar, we’ve talked about it a little here. As Smith likes to do he has assembled an interesting cast and being a fan of of Mr. Smiths work I always look forward to his story telling abilities. All this is leading to …

Haley Joel Osment, now there’s a name we haven’t heard in a while. I shouldn’t need to remind you but he was the little kid who saw “dead people” in THE SIXTH SENSE.
