Published

Coloring and Christmas. These two things are cornerstones of most of our childhood. What happens when we get older though? What happens to Christmas and coloring then? We sure can’t give it up because when you do that, an angel loses its wings and falls, and burns in the the bowels of hell. Hey that’s just what I was told.Well, good news there is no need to damn innocent angels  to hell, you guys! “Creepy Christmas (A Merry Macabre Coloring Book) is here to once again restore balance between light and darkness and coloring and Christmas.

Mister Sam Shearon’s latest book is full of 40 hand-drawn illustrations that span the globe, to bring us the darkest folklore. It isn’t just Krampus you had to be afraid of during Xmas. Who Knew? There are tons of horrifying Christmas folklore in addition to Krampus. Gryla, Santa Claws, Rabid Rudolph and the Windigo, just to name a few.

Each illustration is paired with a story detailing some spooky facts behind a number of insidious Christmas characters. Long before Santa Clause began coming down your fireplace to deliver joy and eat your cookies, things were much darker. Krampus and other characters from folklore were taking bad children into the forrest to never be heard from again. The lore surrounding Christmas has always been darker and richer than the lore surrounding Halloween.

Shearon’s Creepy Christmas, is a fun way to learn about these monsters. The best part is when you finish the story, you can bust our your colors and add your own personal touch to Shearon’s illustrations.

Mister Sam Shearon’s art has been featured in literature ranging from ‘Hellraiser’ comics to ‘Heavy Metal Magazine’ and has been paired with fantastic musicians, like ‘Rob Zombie‘ and ‘Ministry’.

28 years later

Danny Boyle is revisiting his 28 Days Later universe with three new films. He will direct the first, 28 Years Later, with two more to follow. Deadline is reporting that sources say Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes have been cast for the first entry, a sequel to the original. Details are being kept under wraps so we don’t know how or if the first original sequel 28 Weeks Later fits into the project.

Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes

Boyle will direct the first movie but it’s unclear which role he will take on in the subsequent films. What is known is Candyman (2021) director Nia DaCosta is scheduled to direct the second film in this trilogy and that the third will be filmed immediately afterward. Whether DaCosta will direct both is still unclear.

Alex Garland is writing the scripts. Garland is having a successful time at the box office right now. He wrote and directed the current action/thriller Civil War which was just knocked out of the theatrical top spot by Radio Silence’s Abigail.

There is no word yet on when, or where, 28 Years Later will start production.

Watch ‘The Burning’ At The Location Where It Was Filmed

Published

on

Fangoria is reporting that fans of the 1981 slasher The Burning will be able to have a screening of the film at the location where it was filmed. The movie is set at Camp Blackfoot which is actually the Stonehaven Nature Preserve in Ransomville, New York.

This ticketed event will take place on August 3. Guests will be able to take a tour of the grounds as well as enjoy some campfire snacks along with the screening of The Burning.

The Burning

The film came out in the early ’80s when teen slashers were being churned out in magnum force. Thanks to Sean S. Cunningham’s Friday the 13th, filmmakers wanted to get in on the low-budget, high-profit movie market and a casket load of these types of films were produced, some better than others.

The Burning is one of the good ones, mostly because of the special effects from Tom Savini who had just come off of his groundbreaking work on Dawn of the Dead and Friday the 13th. He declined to do the sequel because of its illogical premise and instead signed on to do this movie. Also, a young Jason Alexander who would later go on to play George in Seinfeld is a featured player.

Because of its practical gore, The Burning had to be heavily edited before it received an R-rating. The MPAA was under the thumb of protest groups and political bigwigs to censor violent films at the time because slashers were just so graphic and detailed in their gore.

Tickets are $50, and if you want a special t-shirt, that will cost you another $25, You can get all the information by visiting the On Set Cinema webpage.
