    ISIS HORROR: BEHEADING VIDEO RELEASED, AND A NEW THREAT UNLEASHED

    ISIS has released a video of journalist James Wright Foley, 40, being beheaded.. the video is graphic and cruel, with Foley stating that the United States government is his real killer.. The ISIS member, who speaks with a British accent, threatens President Obama and brings another reporter, Steven Scotloff, before the camera at the unknown location..

    The President has been made aware of the video, reports indicate, as he flew back to his vacation.. Additionally, the Foley family has been said to be consumed by horrid grief at the news tonight..

    This is how REUTERS reported the news in its dispatches tonight from Baghdad:

    BAGHDAD (Reuters) – Islamic State militants claimed in a video on Tuesday to be holding U.S. journalist Steven Sotloff and said his life depended on U.S. President Barack Obama’s next move.

    “The life of this American citizen, Obama, depends on your next decision,” said a masked man in the video posted on social media sites, speaking English with a British accent as he held a prisoner the video named as Steven Sotloff.

    The video could not immediately be verified.

    The world yet again witnessing another small detail of the horror taking place in the Middle East..

    The United States is working to verify the video..
    The militant group, however, is claiming they killed him. And will soon kill another..

     

    DEVELOPING..

  • A VOICE SILENCED

    A VOICE SILENCED

    Don Pardo is dead at 96..

    You may not know him by his face, but you would definitely know him by his voice. He was the longtime voice of Saturday Night Live, only missing one season throughout the entirety of the programs lifespan.

    He is done a number of other voice over jobs, you may also recognize him from the program Jeopardy..

    Television may not be the same without him, regardless of how bad or good Saturday Night Live was, his voice being the mainstay and permanent fixture of the program was comforting..

    May he rest in peace..

     

  • THE IS IS KNOCKING?

    THE IS IS KNOCKING?

    This happened during a cnn interview last night in Ferguson.. During live coverage of the protests, someone held up an ‘ISIS IS HERE’ banner for cameras to see..

    A provocation of violence? A show of solidarity with terrorists? All a fraud to scare the nation?

    We do know this: Many outsiders are attempting to hijack the message from Ferguson. Some want violence to drown out the important facts relative to the shooting of Michael Brown..

    That may be what this ISIS sign is intended to do..

    Or .. They are here ..

     

  • When you kick the ice bucket

    When you kick the ice bucket

    So many tries.. so many fails.
    By now your newsfeed has been slammed with ‘ice bucket challenges.’ I have gotten into some heated discussion with fellow humans about whether this is just a egocentric trip into nonsense territory or if the ice bucket idea actually generates attention for ALS..

    Nonetheless, there’s been a whole slew of fails in the ice bucket category.. Some of them have been monumental. This video attempts to capture some of the best..

    Enjoy..

    DIMENSION IS READY FOR THE NEXT ‘HALLOWEEN’.. BUT I DON’T THINK FANS ARE

    Horror sites and movie message boards have been a buzz today after BLOODY DISGUSTING linked a SCHMOEKNOW report indicating that Dimension Films is ready for a new Halloween movie.. with a new Akkad..

    It will be entitled HALLOWEEN: THE NEXT CHAPTER. Apparently it will be set for a fall 2015 release—imagine the first one came out in the late 1970s and we are STILL talking about the Michael Myers franchise *(amazing)*..

    According to the report, too, Rob Zombie will not reprise his role as the official ruiner of something great.. No gorefest? not sure.. no storyline? maybe not.. But.. it’s going to be a ‘fresh’ take on the Zombie films. Whatever that may mean.

    A new chapter, I guess..

    The first thing I thought about the new film.. Didn’t we already have a slasher ‘chapter’ before? We did.. it was called FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE FINAL CHAPTER. Which was not the final chapter at all.. this new HALLOWEEN is the new Chapter.. And the second thing I thought: I don’t want a new chapter. I don’t want another Dr. Loomis, or another tale of Michael Myers.. or any other references to him in new films. I want him confined to Halloween 1 and 2.. I wanted him to have blown up in a Haddonfield hospital, never to return again.. I wanted Mr. Sandman to be the last thing I thought about when I recalled the Halloween movies.

    Instead we have ended up with years of crap.. just plain garbage.. trashed heaped on us like weighted down rubbish .. Halloween 4? It was …alright. 5? Oh too much… 6? Ungodly.. 6 the director’s cut? Even worse.. H20? Josh Hartnett couldn’t even save it.. 8? Oh God live streaming from the Myers house? Rob Zombie..? Please stop this madness.. A new chapter? CLOSE THE BOOK.

    This all needs to end..

    Dr. Loomis shot him six times. And then set him on fire.. And John Carpenter wanted it that way.

    Take the mask off.
    Shatner called. He wants his face back.

    Horror movies called.. they want the Akkads to stop making Halloween.. And now someone just needs to pass that along to DIMENSION—the company living in another dimension where reality doesn’t seem to exist when it comes to horror movie series that have just gone on toooo long..

    Sorry Mike. We’ve had enough!
