In case you missed it, Blumhouse has announced that they have brought John Carpenter back to the Halloween franchise. He will be producing the next installment in the series, set to release in October 2017. I love this. As you all well know, Carpenter is the man responsible for first bringing Michael Myers into our […]

Mailbag: May 23, 2016

So kind of like zombies, except with wings and a stinger. But hey! Maybe you can produce some delicious honey. (Wasps cannot […]
