The Walking Dead Season 1 – Boxed Set Ready To Hit Stores
Zombies. The AMC show “The Walking Dead” is full of them…of course, since it’s about the walking dead. On October 4th, though, stores around the globe will also be full of zombies, in the form of the DVD and Blu-Ray boxed sets of The Walking Dead.
Sons Of Anarchy – Season 4 Is Heating Up
Just in case your head has been stuck in a toilet, Sons of Anarchy is back with it’s fourth season and, straight out of the gate, they’re going 100 miles an hour.

The Ghostbusters Are Back! (In Theaters)
This is a test. I’m going to ask you a couple questions. Answer the first thing that comes to mind. Do you believe in UFOs, astral projection, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trans-mediums, the Loch Ness monster and the theory of Atlantis? Only if there’s a steady paycheck? Ok. Do you experience feelings of dread in your basement or attic? Only when you smoke pot, fair enough. Do you believe that the original Ghostbusters film will be returning to theaters this October? Yes? You deserve a Snickers.
TV Review: Entourage – The Final Season
To quote the editor-in-chief of The Verge:
[blackbirdpie url=”http://twitter.com/#!/joshuatopolsky/status/113238508675678208″]
…and, well, it’s true. After eight years, the Mark Wahlberg-produced HBO show about up and coming actor Vincent Chase (Adrien Grenier) and his titular homies has now rolled to a conclusion. Or stumbled. Or flattened. We’ve certainly seen a lot of drama over the years (as well as Vince’s brother Johnny Drama), agency swaps, the rise and fall (and subsequent rise and fall) of superstar agent Ari Gold, lots and lots of phone calls, and more than a few fictional movies, and a borderline Simpsons quantity of celebrity appearances, but this last season of Entourage was hardly the best way to send the show out.
Andy Whitfield – Spartacus – Has Died
I’m not going to go into details, mostly because I’m not in the mood for the macabre, but it has been confirmed that Andy Whitfield has passed away.

Nick Reviews Whiskey Media’s Big Live Live Show Live! The Second One!
It’s been a year since the Whiskey Media family of sites (Giant Bomb, Tested, Screened, Comic Vine, Anime Vice) went with premium plans to start driving revenue since they had passed on advertising to that point. Blowing out the announcement was their inaugural Big Live Live Show Live!, an eight-hour, telethon-formatted web show. Despite a few technical gaffes and some content that just wasn’t appealing, Whiskey set off to show that their programming is prime cut across their various properties. Since then, the company has committed to weekly ‘Happy Hours’ that have served as smaller editions, but I honestly couldn’t find two hours a week for their video programming. Now a year later, how does the BLLSL’s sequel hold up?
Let’s Talk About Survivor – The Most Inaccurate Show Title EVER?! I Think So!
In 5 days, the mega-hit television series “Survivor” will start its 23rd season, in the South Pacific – Specifically, in Upolu, Samoa.
I watched the first season of Survivor and about half of the second season before I became so disgusted with the show that I couldn’t bear to watch it any longer. I got a wild hair and started checking out one of the more recent seasons and it’s even more frustrating than the earlier ones.

Movie Review: Red State
It seems easy… too easy. Red State, Kevin Smith’s horror opus, opens with three kids looking to score. Somehow the one with the curly hair convinces them all to go down on a chick he met on the internet in some glorious foursome with little more incentive than a faceless thumbnail on a tacky hookup site. It’s not long before they’re on their way to her trailer in the woods to get down when – bait and switch! – they wind up prisoners in a crazy church run by a fictionalized, militant version of Fred Phelps (y’know, the guy who runs the Westboro Baptist Church, the one that pickets soldiers’ funerals with ‘God Hates Fags’ signs? That one.). What begins as a colossal mess ends as one while writer/director Smith fumbles through a movie that doesn’t seem far removed from a fevered dream – not disturbing in any sense of terror, but at how awfully languid it is.
Movie Review: Grave Encounters
Let’s get one thing straight, I was looking forward to this with high hopes because of the silent praise the film was receiving, much like Paranormal Activity. Written and directed by The Vicious Brothers, this bastard child of The Blair Witch Project and House on Haunted Hill provides less scares then both combined, not only that but it’s a steaming pile of rat shit, and that rat was the best actor in this movie.

Review: Immortals Saga: Immortal
When I first picked up this book up I was worried. I normally avoid books done by small publishers because I’m hardly ever impressed with them. Immortal by Allison Cassatta, however, was a different story. From the first page on my attention was caught, the book is marketed as a paranormal romance, but really there is so much more to it.
