Sony Pictures Home Entertainment was kind enough to send us a review copy of the Blu-ray release of “The Evil Dead” written and directed by Sam Raimi (Spider-Man trilogy, Drag Me To Hell) and produced by Robert G. Tapert (Drag Me To Hell, The Grudge). Its cast features Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness), Ellen Sandweiss (My Name is Bruce), Hal Delrich (Crimewave), Betsy Baker (TV’s “Southland”, “E.R.”) and Sarah York (TV’s “Dangerous Women”). Five Michigan State University students venture into the hills to spend a weekend at an isolated cabin. There they discover an ancient Sumerian text, known as the “Morturom Demonto”; roughly translated as “The Book of [...]...

Babelgum has been on a web series roundup of late, and these guys are moving fast. With news coming just two weeks ago of indie sci-fi series The Crew jumping ship to the online network as its news home for season 2, a fresh new batch of sci-fi series have followed suit. Today Babelgum announced three new original series, several of which are helmed by some web series notables, to make up the bulk of the sci-fi/horror comedy channel. Launching today is a new series from Goodnight Burbank creator Hayden Black—no not The Cabonauts, which we're still waiting on—but a hastily assembled paranormal comedy The Occulterers. The "interactive comedy and horror series" stars Black as one of his inventive characters, Hervé Villechez, this time part of a four-person Transylvanian ghost hunting crew. Black's new series took just two weeks from concept to production, and that includes inking the deal with Babelgum.

Greetings Fango Fiends! Psycho Bunny here with another look back at the past seven days of deliciously blood-drenched horror goodness. While many of you will be plopped in front of the tele later today soaking your livers in alcohol, munching cheap snacks like a glutton on holiday, watching men fight over the inflatable pigskin, Pb will be enjoying Black Sunday instead. No, not the 1960 Mario Bava classic, but John Frankenheimer's 1977 film about an attack on the Superbowl. Sure it was Miami as opposed to Tampa Bay, but who cares about logistics? That said, let's delve into a look back at the past week in horror, broken down by category into easy to digest little nuggets of death!

Actress Ellen Sandweiss got in touch with some comments on Dangerous Women, the on-line series that reunites her with fellow Ladies of The Evil Dead Betsy Baker and Theresa Tilly. We first reported on the Strike.TV show here; you can see the just-posted second episode below the cut.
Dangerous Women, which stars the trio as suburban housewives dealing with typical family issues as well as their own evil doubles, got its start when Sandweiss acted in writer/producer David O’Malley’s still-unreleased feature The Dread a few years back. “We became good friends,” she tells us, “and David really wanted to write something to feature the Ladies of The Evil Dead. At first it was going to be a feature film, but when the Writers Guild strike was going on and word got out about the formation of Strike.TV, he decided that a web series for the...

A busy January continues for Strike.TV with the debut of two more shows, both a bit off the beaten path of standard web fare. Dangerous Women, which premiered January 22nd, and Fusion, debuting today, both take up residence far away from three-minute comedy sketches and twenty-something angst. Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Baker and Theresa Tilly, the three female leads from Sam Raimi's 1981 camp-horror classic The Evil Dead, star in Dangerous Women as suburban housewives, though despite a long voice-over introduction in episode one, this trio seems to live a long way from Wisteria Lane. The first episode is nearly all expository information, until a shadowy figure is seen behind Sandweiss in the final scene. The multi-genre series from writer-producer David O'Malley and director Lee Miller claims to be "part hyper-drama, with tantalizing doses of horror, suspense, satire, soap opera, fantasy and even sci-fi." Fusion, meanwhile, sets up an X-Files-like...

The online video resurrection of things 80s isn’t only relegated to Fox television sitcom stars, MTV anchors, and Super Mario characters. With the launch of Strike.TV’s Dangerous Women, the phenomenon now encompasses the female actors that played (dismembered) hormonal teenagers that unwittingly unleashed hell via cassette recording in a remote cabin in the woods of Tennessee. Kinda, sorta, but not really reprising their roles from Sam Raimi’s cult classic The Evil Dead, Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Baker, and Theresa Tilly play Cheryl, Linda, and Shelly (Fangoria readers will chuckle after quickly realizing those are the same names of their Evil Dead characters). The three are menopausal, suburban house moms afflicted with an American Beauty malaise of middle age and weariness of the same old routine. And, of course, they’re all cursed with a “sadistically evil” doppelganger (queue the screams and dramatic music!). Instead of curing the...
