Popcorn Horror, is the brain child of Felix Gilfedder an independent filmmaker from Glasgow, Scotland. Making his first films after picking up his fathers Super 8mm Cassette camera at the age of 8, there was no going back. From there via a Masters in History, a stint at Sydney University doing Digital Film, traveling the world, making 10 independent short films and a few film awards he decided to try and blend his love of films, horror and technology on the mobile phone platform – an app that would be empowering to filmmakers, an app deserving of horror fans and an app that would change and grow with it’s audience.

“There Will be Sangre!

Being Latino myself, I’m a fan of the Latin horror-based website given that there are not many sites like it. Thanks to Edwin Pagan that is no longer the case.

The Latino and Spanish communities have a lot to offer in terms of horror and the macabre and what better place to showcase those various attributes and provide coverage than Latin Horror. Continue reading »

Paranormal Activity 3 Review

Like any successful movie franchise, its novelty eventually wears off and audiences scurry off to the next best thing – at least for the most part (see Saw). When I initially saw the teaser for the latest installment in the Paranormal Activity series I scoffed and told myself that I probably won’t be spending my money on this film, especially after it seemed that the series was heading in a direction that didn’t interest me, specifically, the Bloody Mary angle. As is usually the case, curiosity peaked its tiny little head and bit me in the rear end prompting me towards the movie theater. Needless to say, I’m glad it did. For those wondering, my life is still in tact as the last 15 minutes did NOT mess up my life as promised in the television promos.

A Mysterious Painting

Acquired this painting recently and although I don’t consider myself an art aficionado, there are certain things that grab my attention. The painting above was one of those things. Can’t say for sure but it may have something to do with the dark under/over-tones and the frame itself.

I know nothing of the painting and its artist as there is no signature anywhere and would like to know more about it. If anyone recognizes the painting, please fill me in on some details.

Any thoughts on the painting?

Drive – Movie Review by Jaime Burchardt

I’m reminded of a time in movies where the hero just knew what had to be done, plain and simple. None of this ‘Let me have my cake, blow away the bad guys, and eat it too’ philosophy.  Maybe it’s the cynical side of me, but movies of the past couple of decades have had that mentality, and almost all of them have the same thing in common: they’re not very good.  Face it, they’re fluff pieces, catered to those who thrive on happy, sappy endings. Kind of like the junk food of cinema. They’re good for the time being, but in the end it’s just forgettable.

Titanium Spork of the Gods!

Alas, the “Titatanium Spork of the Gods” has arrived! Never before have I been able to achieve feats that were once unattainable. For the first time I was able to eat with a spork and not have have it snap under the weight of my food; no more prongs breaking off only to join the mish-mash of mashed potatoes and being accidentally swallowed, stabbing at my esophagus as it careens toward my stomach. The invention of the spork is that of a genius – combining the spoon and the fork so that only one utensil goes into the dishwasher afterwards instead of two. Absolutely genius!

Ok, ok! The Titanium spork was a prize in a contest I won via Slices of Bizarro, the website of author Jeremy C. Shipp. Along with the spork came the e-book Aberrations. Aberrations features short stories from an array of writers edited by Jeremy that certainly makes for an interesting read.
