Monster of the Day #698
I wonder what it was like to be a designer on one of these Japanese monster shows. You could (at least sometimes, one would imagine) work you ass off to design a really cool monster, knowing in advance that by far the most likely outcome is that the monster will never appear in anything…

Ran out out of Ghosthouse stuff, so back to Hausu. I believe this is the third time the film has supplied a MotD.

S.W.A.T. TV Pilot Review
[Back in May of 2003 (!!) I posted a Video Cheese review of a set of '70s cop show first episodes. One of these was the first chapter of the S.W.A.T. TV show. In honor of Steve Forrest's recent passing, I thought I would report that piece.] S.W.A.T.: “The Killing Ground” Theme Music/Credit Sequence: …

Sadly, I could not find a picture of the killer fan, so…

Amazon starts royalties for fan fic arm….
So far they are solely working with Warners and have only licensed three teen-oriented properties; Pretty Little Liars, Gossip Girls and Vampire Diaries. However, if this works, I expect to see an explosion in this sort of thing. I can only assume they started kicking the can on this idea after noting the ASTOUNDING…

Monster of the Day #694
We continue our look at Ghosthouse. Notice the reappearance of the doll, who periodically--by which I mean, every four or five minutes--appears like this with the ghost of this little girl. It's like they assembled the movie from a Spooky Movie checklist. Spooky Doll: Check. Spooky Girl Ghost: Check. Spooky Ghost Dog: Check. Spooky…
