Blu-ray Review: The Attic Expeditions (2001)

Our boy Trevor (Andras Jones) is coolin’ his heels in Ye Olde Insane Asylum after having supposedly murdered his girlfriend. While there he is plagued by nightmares about black magic (and murder ‘natch). Trevor’s doc, Dr. Ek (the legend himself, Jeffrey Combs) is hellbent on plundering all of Trevor’s subconscious secrets and utilize it for his own dark purposes… so things are looking grim as fuck for our hero indeed! What I feel is The Attic Expeditions‘ greatest stumbling block may be what you cats n’ creeps dig the most; namely the fact that the narrative is told from Trevor’s highly suspect perspective, so we never know if the images he sees are fact or just the result of his mental condition… and you cats n’ creeps know if there is something supernatural afoot I like it to be the real deal, no ifs, ands, or buts! Thankfully the film is jam packed with surreal images and some great co-stars

Alice Cooper’s New Album ‘Paranormal’ Is A Shock’n, Rock’n Blast From The Past

Shock rocker Alice Cooper released his first album in 6 years last week. Released on July 28, Paranormal is an album that long-time Alice Cooper fans will adore, as it oozes with the kind of old school Alice songs that got imbedded into the rock culture of the 70s and 80s. It’s for good reason, too, as the album features two songs written and recorded with the original members of The Alice Cooper Band. The album also features tracks with guest appearances by U2 drummer Larry Mullen, Roger Glover of Deep Purple and ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons. As if the cameos weren’t enough of a treat, the album also comes with 6 classic Alice Cooper hits, recorded live at a show last year in Columbus, Ohio. In a recent interview with blabbermouth.net, Cooper had this to say regarding the title of the new album: “My definition of paranormal is something that is ‘other than normal’ or ‘alongside of normal’.

Lineup Announced For Dr. Gangrene’s Fourteenth Horror Hootenanny

Dr. Gangrene’s annual Horror Hootenanny is one of Nashville’s premier Halloween-season events, with live music, showings of fright flicks, and a costume contest with prizes.

Alice Cooper Continues To Terrify With New Album

At 69 years old, The King of Shock Rock, The Master of Musical Macabre, Detroit’s Demon of Darkness, Alice Cooper has a new album. I know, when Cooper first burst onto the scene with his group ‘The Spiders’ he looked like a malnutritioned freak who couldn’t sing and wouldn’t last a year (either because he would fail in the music world or die due to some chemical use). But 54 years and 25 (now 26) albums later – not including guest appearances and group projects like “Hollywood Vampires’ – Cooper is still going strong and still as dementedly decadent as always. By his own admission, Cooper has survived this ling because he was successfully able to separate the character of Alice Cooper and the man who created him. In his off time, Cooper golfs, hangs out with grandchildren and substitute teaches a Sunday-School class. But when that iconic makeup goes on, it is no holds barred horror. The first single,

Alice Cooper – The Icon of Music and Horror

I just want to take a moment and talk about a concert I went to. No, this is not a concert review, nor will I spend any time talking about the songs played or putting in a plug for you all to go see this show (although you should). What does this have to do with horror? Trust me, my friends. Trust me. I went and saw the unmistakeable Alice Cooper. Yes the show was amazing. Yes, he somehow still sound amazing at 69 years old. Yes, he is heavy and energetic enough to match up to any current rock show. However, none of that is what I want to talk about. The dude lives and breathes horror! His whole show is built around him being in an asylum and within those rubber walls he dances like a ghoul, and screams like a banshee while nurses inject him with goliathian needles, attack him with whips, and restrain him in strait
