It’s been over four decades since Cassandra Peterson first brought her sexy and sassy alter ego Elvira, Mistress of the Dark to television screens, putting a bodacious spin on the movie mocking horror schtick popularized by Vampira and Sinister Seymour before her. On the classic 80’s horror series Movie Macabre, based in Hollywood, her quip-filled cinematic commentary, campy California girl charm and prominent cleavage made her an immediate hit, garnering national syndication, a major motion picture and a fiendish fanbase that’s endured to this day.
Elvira also became the face of Halloween via a partnership with Knotts Berry Farm in Buena Park, Calif. that included a thematic stage show and a myriad of merchandising. After a couple hiatuses, Peterson ended her relationship with Knotts for good last year, but it was far from a farewell to scary season celebrations for this beloved glamour ghoul.

While the Avengers may be the premier team in the Marvel Universe, the DC Universe has the Justice League as its greatest protectors. This team often boasts having the Dcu's most iconic heavy hitters like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, each with their own dedicated fans. However, across the Justice League's extensive history, there are also superheroes on the team that have long gone overlooked and underappreciated despite their membership. Given the sheer number of heroes that served on the League, this is to be expected, but many figures are more powerful and deserve more love than they usually get.
This oversight can be influenced by the characters' relatively brief time on the Justice League, an underestimation of their abilities, or just wide reader reaction to their inclusion. In some cases, readers may have dismissed the presence of these heroes for not being perceived as Justice League material. Despite being largely written off,...

Spirit Halloween has already previewed a handful of new animatronics that they’ll be releasing this spooky season, including Terrifier 3‘s Art the Clown and demon Valak from The Nun.
What else is coming from Spirit Halloween this year? The company has just announced a brand new animatronic from Trick ‘r Treat, which will be their second Sam animatronic!
This new one stands – or rather, sits – 3-feet, 4-inches tall, and it features Sam sitting on a bale of hay with a jack o’lantern in front of him and his trusty candy bar blade in his hand.
Spirit previews, “From Michael Dougherty’s classic Halloween film, Trick ‘r Treat, comes Sam, the Spirit of Halloween who enforces the holiday’s ancient traditions.
“To the untrained eye, Sam might look like just another kid out trick or treating, but what’s hidden beneath his eerie costume is anything but sweet.

"Little Nicky" isn't regarded as one of Adam Sandler's best movies ... though we could say the same about many of his more disreputable flicks. The fantastical comedy was a financial flop upon its release back in the year 2000, despite Sandler riding a wave of momentum following hits like "Billy Madison" and "Big Daddy." What's more, the film gained mostly negative reviews from critics -- which, to be fair, is also part and parcel with Sandler movies. With that being said, "Little Nicky" has its defenders (this writer included), as it's one of the few comedies out there featuring angels, demons, talking dogs, slacker metalheads, and giant birds that hound creepy men. Not only that, but it boasts a memorable cameo from the late Ozzy Osbourne, who helps prevent one of Satan's sons from taking over the world.

Just weeks after performing his final farewell show live on stage in England, it’s being reported this afternoon that the forever legend Ozzy Osbourne has passed away at the age of 76.
Osbourne had been suffering from Parkinson’s disease in recent years.
A family statement reads, “It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”
Variety’s obituary labels the legendary Osbourne as “a founding father of British heavy metal, a latter-day solo star and a new-millennium reality TV luminary,” a testament to his enduring longevity and career evolution throughout the decades.

Music icon Ozzy Osbourne, who became a heavy metal legend before finding greater fame on reality television, has died. He was 76 years old.
Per the BBC, Osbourne's family announced on Tuesday that the singer had passed away. Osbourne, who found fans beyond the heavy metal audience with his reality TV shows, had been struggling with health issues in recent years. He announced in early 2020 that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Check out the trailer for this Wnuf Halloween Special spinoff.
Trick Or Treat With Reed Richmond Trailer
Back in 2013, Chris Lamartina unleashed Wnuf Halloween Special into the world. The movie is fun, played like an old VHS recording of an '87 news broadcast which sends a reporter to a haunted house on Halloween. Complete with '80s-esque commercials, the overall tone is light until it gets very dark. If you haven't seen it, track it down and give it a whirl, especially if you like found footage and the '80s.
Anywho, Lamartina is back in the Wnuf universe with this spinoff, Trick or Treat With Reed Richmond, starring the great George Stover. I'm looking forward to this one, and it hits in August. You can pre-order it now for $31.00 exclusively at Big Cartel.

When it comes to Stranger Things, “worst-rated” feels like an insult to the Upside Down itself. But hey, even the best shows have episodes that get unfairly ghosted by fans. Not every chapter can be a monster-slaying, synth-blaring, Max-floating-on-air masterpiece. Some episodes just exist in the shadows, like that one Demodog, we all forgot about.
But here’s the thing, these so-called duds? They’re actually lowkey brilliant. They might not have made Twitter trend lists or sparked a thousand Halloween costumes, but they have charm, character moments, and, sometimes, most real emotional punches.

The most-watched horror film on Amazon Freevee today is a farcical effort starring the iconic Danny Trejo. I’m talking about John Gulager’s latest film, Seven Cemeteries (stylized on the one sheet as Se7en Cemeteries). The film has been charting in the top 10 on Freevee for the past several days, and today, Seven Cemeteries sits as the third most-watched film on the service overall.
To call this horror picture campy might be an understatement. After all, the flick follows a recently paroled Danny Trejo and his army of undead sidekicks as they face off against a drug impresario. If you need an escape from reality, this may be just the ticket.
In the film, “A recent parolee gets a Mexican witch to resurrect his old posse so that they can help him save a woman’s ranch from a ruthless drug lord.“

Tim Burton is one of the most visually inventive filmmakers of all time, and his work doesn’t just have its own unique visual flair, it is also wonderfully macabre. He came to prominence in the early 1980s with short movies such as Vincent from 1982, and 1984’s Frankenweenie, and followed them up with classic films like Beetlejuice and Batman towards the end of the 80s. Burton went on to make numerous other weird and wonderful movies, and he’s currently putting the finishing touches to the second season of the well-received Wednesday from 2022. And, oh yeah, his latest movie, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice just grossed half a billion dollars!
I’ve always found Burton’s work to be hugely influential from a design perspective, and if you look at any of his creations, from Jack Skellington, to Edward Scissorhands, there’s no doubt that they’re Tim Burton characters. In October of this year,...

Over the years, DC Comics has introduced countless superheroes to the world, including icons like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. However, not every superhero attains that level of mainstream fame, as many end up falling to the wayside with time. The DC Universe is vast, and there are plenty of lesser-known heroes who don't get nearly enough recognition. And it's about time that changed.
Some characters within DC lore may have been popular once, but have since been neglected as others surpassed them in the public eye. With god-like figures and renowned warriors at the forefront of the Justice League, it stands to reason that underdogs would pale in comparison. Still, these heroes deserve as much of a fair shot as the likes of the Trinity, and DC's All In era is the perfect opportunity for them to be revived. Here are 8 overlooked heroes that DC needs to bring back into the spotlight.

After a generic DVD run and Blu-rays released outside the U.S. market under the name Ragman, Synapse Films has answered the prayers of many horror-metal fans with the recent 4K release of 1986’s Trick or Treat. Having “No Wimps” and “No False Metal,” this film is considered by many to be the quintessential heavy metal horror flick, partially thanks to a perfectly apropos soundtrack provided by the band Fastway.
After constantly being harassed by the cool kids at his high school, Eddie Weinbauer aka “Ragman” finds solace in listening to the music of his idol Sammi Curr to get through the abuse. Not only is he a famous heavy metal star, but Curr is also an alum at Eddie’s high school where he became an outcast-made-good into metal stardom.

While horror films are the traditional fare for a night such as tonight, the last half-century of American culture embracing the theme of the season has led to every syndicated TV show at least attempting a Halloween episode, and, for those of us who prefer laughs to gasps, we’d rather settle in with a sitcom than a slasher while we eat cupcakes decorated like skulls and drink punch that we’ll pretend is blood.

Heavy metal horror is a genre that was born, peaked, and all but died out in the 1980s. It was a time when the satanic panic was in full swing, and people like Tipper Gore were telling everybody that heavy metal music was carving up the souls of Americas youth and serving them straight to the devil. Naturally, filmmakers would jump at the chance to lampoon this idea by exploiting it in horror movies, with one such film being 1986's Trick or Treat.

Trick Or Treat Limited Edition 4K Uhd + Blu-ray: "From the early days of DVD, one movie more than any other has been requested by horror fans and metal heads all over: Charles Martin Smith’s heavy metal horror classic Trick Or Treat. A box office disappointment that found a wide following on home video and cable in the 80s and 90s, it’s been curiously out of reach to fans, who would rely on dubious DVDs and imports to get their Halloween heavy horror treat. Now, Red Shirt Pictures and Synapse Films are finally bringing the much-anticipated Trick Or Treat to your door in a definitive Limited Edition 4K Uhd/Blu-ray that will make every day Halloween for horror fanatics and headbangers!
Rock ‘n’ roll will never die, in this 1980s cult favorite that stars Marc Price (Family Ties) as Eddie Weinbauer, a teenage outcast who idolizes Sammi Curr (Tony Fields), a heavy metal superstar.

Rock ‘n’ roll never dies. Sometimes, it even gets a second life. At least that’s the case for 1986 cult horror favorite Trick or Treat, as Synapse Films has delivered a surprise Halloween treat by launching preorders for the horror film’s 4K world premiere.
The limited special edition 4K release of Trick or Treat is strictly limited to a total of 6666 units!
The good news is that preorders are open now, with the release shipping as soon as next week, October 27.
The first feature from award-winning filmmaker Charles Martin Smith (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”), the film featured a cast of soon to be household names including Marc Price (“Family Ties”) and Doug Savant (“Melrose Place”). Alongside rock icons Gene Simmons and Ozzy Osbourne, Trick or Treat blends the best of the 1980s metal scene with the decade’s tongue and cheek take on the genre.

Although Halloween is embraced by all ages these days, it was mostly a children’s holiday not all that long ago. What is essentially now a multi-month event was a single day of fun back then. The real world has changed in this regard, but some things stay the same in TV anthologies; kids are still the focal point in stories about Halloween.
In episodic anthologies rooted in horror, Halloween stories occasionally happen but are not guaranteed or even timely. Horror series, after all, do not rely on Halloween in order to be horror. The chances are, though, if an episode is all about Halloween, the protagonists are probably young.
Here are five must-watch tales of kid-friendly Halloween horror from TV anthologies.

Exclusive: Up-and-comers Arlan Ruf and Ellis Hobbs IV will round out the cast of Way of the Warrior Kid, Apple Original Films’ youth empowerment tale, based on the novel by Jocko Willink.

If you’re a Silent Hill fan going through the newly released Silent Hill 2 Remake, you’re well-versed in how much the series loves throwing its characters into the most oddball and surreal moments when they least expect it.
Whether it’s things like the UFO ending that all the games have in some shape or form, or the random Elevator Quiz that James Sunderland is suddenly thrust into while riding an elevator in Brookhaven Hospital, Silent Hill devs are experts at making not just characters question their sanity, but the players too.
The Elevator Quiz in particular is sprung at you at a seemingly very random moment. You might feel tempted to skip over it because it feels too difficult to solve but don’t worry.
This guide will tell you what are the answers to the Elevator Quiz in Silent Hill 2 Remake, where to find them in-game, and how to answer the quiz.

Over on the JoBlo Horror Originals YouTube channel, we talk about horror movies and TV shows all year long – but that doesn’t mean that the “spooky season” building up to Halloween isn’t a special time of the year for us. I may watch horror movies all year, but for me October is a month-long horror marathon where I try to pack as many horror movies into each day as possible. Halloween is my favorite holiday, and it’s the day when I make sure to watch the likes of FleshEater (1988), Murder Party (2007), The Hollow (2004), Trick or Treat (1986), and Trick ‘r Treat (2007). And maybe something involving Michael Myers. In anticipation of the Halloween festivities, several of our JoBlo Horror Originals staff members got together to give some horror movie recommendations – and you can watch them reveal their Halloween viewing picks in the video embedded above!

Almost twenty years ago, viewers of the Project Greenlight reality TV series got to watch as John Gulager was hired to direct the creature feature Feast for a producing team that included Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, and Wes Craven. Feast went over well enough that Gulager was brought back to helm back-to-back sequels, Feast II: Sloppy Seconds and Feast III: The Happy Finish. Since then, he has gone on to direct Piranha 3Dd, Zombie Night, and Children of the Corn: Runaway. His latest movie is the action thriller Seven Cemeteries, which was just given a theatrical and digital release today, October 11th, and on Amazon it’s available to rent for the price of $6.99 or purchase for $14.99. To help you decide whether or not Seven Cemeteries is a movie you’d like to check out, we have the trailer embedded above.

Get ready for Halloween! CakeWorthy has once again teamed up with Disney for some fantastic new fashions. This time Halloween is the theme and we have pieces that reflect the old 1952 “Trick-or-Treat” special and the Haunted Mansion! Both are my favorites!

The first row starts off with a Haunted Mansion themed shirt. We can see icons from the attraction including the stretching room gargoyle and the floating candelabra.
Next we have a black cardigan with Mickey ghosts.
The third piece is a Donald Duck hoodie. He’s dressed as the devil and the hoodie is bright red with horns!
Finally we have an Aop t-shirt that has characters from the 1952 “Trick-or-Treat” special including the ghosts, which you rarely ever see! I love it!

A few months ago, we got the release of the fifth film in WB/Legendary’s MonsterVerse saga, Godzilla x Kong: The New Era. These films have attempted to somewhat reinvent the traditional Kaiju film for Western audiences, with our mighty monster heroes being called Titans. While the franchise arguably stumbled out of the gate with director Gareth Edwards’ coolly received Godzilla, the saga has steadily grown in popularity, and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was a big hit. But how do the films stack up against each other? Let’s take a look with our MonsterVerse Movies Ranked List!
Godzilla (2014)
Audiences were pretty hyped for Gareth Edwards’ 2014 Godzilla reboot, with awesome early trailers that used Ligeti’s Requiem II from 2001: A Space Odyssey, promising the most intense Kaiju movie to date. It didn’t really work out that way, with many complaining about how dull the film was,...

Late Motörhead guitarist Fast Eddie Clarke is the subject of a forthcoming 320-page biography and a 4-cd box set, both arriving September 6th via BMG.
Make My Day: The Rock ‘n’ Roll Story of Fast Eddie Clarke was penned by rock journalist Kris Needs with Clarke’s widow Mariko Fujiwara. The book follows Clarke’s life and career from his formative years in the burgeoning UK rock scene, through his legendary run with Motörhead from 1976 to 1982 and his subsequent hard rock/Aor band Fastway and beyond.
“Mariko and Eddie’s closest friends provide detailed insights into Eddie’s life, including growing up in Twickenham, topping charts with Motörhead, overcoming personal problems, finding happiness with Mariko and becoming the smitten co-owner of Cookie the Maltese-Shihtzu cross,” reads the book’s press release.

While it may have followed Seinfeld as Larry David's second major TV series, Curb Your Enthusiasm has the most unique voice of any TV series of the modern era.
While set almost entirely in Los Angeles, Curb has a very New York-centric and Jewish sensibility. And at the center of it all is Larry David, playing a probably-not-that-exaggerated version of himself.
The show started in October of 1999 as a one-off HBO special, meant to depict the return to stand-up comedy of Larry David, best known at that point as the co-creator of Seinfeld.
He was playing a version of Larry, who is independently wealthy yet seemingly never far from a confrontation about something small.
It soon became a surprisingly long-running comedy series, as its final season launched in February of 2024, nearly 25 years after that special.

Squid Game: The Challenge consists of 10 episodes, with the first five released on November 22 and the remaining four on November 29. The season finale will air on December 6, revealing the winner of the $4.56 million prize. The challenges in Squid Game: The Challenge closely resemble those in the original series, with controversial moments like injuries during the Red Light, Green Light game and disagreement over carving an umbrella shape. The upcoming episodes leading to the finale will feature a marble game, new twists compared to the original show, and increasing tension among the contestants. The unpredictable nature of the competition makes it a unique and interesting social experiment.

Tales of musicians who sold their soul for fame are common enough, Crossroads, Trick or Treat, Dark Roads 79 and The 27 Club are just a few examples. The Devil Went Down to Islington is a little different, however. It tells the tale of a music teacher who makes a Faustian bargain while drunk, only to panic when he realizes what he’s done.
It actually opens like a bizarre action film with Father Crowley using switchblade crosses to fight a pair of masked figures who are attacking a panicked man. He defeats them, but in the end Satan claims another soul.

The 1986 rock ‘n roll horror film Trick or Treat, one of my all-time favorite movies, is getting a Blu-ray and 4K Uhd release (and possibly a new DVD release) from Synapse Films. We’re still waiting to hear a release date for that, as obviously the company wasn’t able to meet the hoped-for October release window – but while we wait for the special physical media release, Trick or Treat is set to making its streaming debut on the Screambox service this Friday, October 27th! Just in time for Halloween viewing!
Directed by Charles Martin Smith from a screenplay by Rhet Topham, Joel Soisson, and Michael S.
