Happy Friday the 13th everyone! Friday the 13th's aren't as cool as they used to be though. I remember back in the day (early 90's era) when they used to play a lot, and I mean A LOT of horror movies on all channels to celebrate Friday the 13th. I mean some people think it's only fitting to watch the Friday the 13th movies, but not me.
I'll throw a quick random list out there for you, maybe to help you mix it up a bit!
This was a cool movie I picked up at Blockbuster video back when it was cool to rent vhs tapes. It's a little under budgeted but it has Clint Howard (Ron Howards brother) in it and that guy is awesome. He's played in like 300 something movies I think... I dunno, but check this movie out if you can.
The sequel to Sam Raimi's first amazing movie, The Evil Dead. The reason I picked the 2nd one is because it's my personal favorite of the 3 movies, and it introduces you to the chainsaw hand, and it's the prequel to Army of Darkness.
It looks like I'm picking sequels here haha. I'm not! I thought the first Poltergeist was the best of the 3 but the 2nd movie has Kane. Kane is the evil man with the big toothy grin who's always walking along the sidewalks singing some song. He eventually goes to the house and wants to see Carol Ann but of course they make him leave. And how could you not be creeped out by that midget lady?
I don't think I need to explain this movie at all. This was an awesome movie to watch on Friday the 13th. It never gets old. Klowns from outer space, killing people, and stuffiing them into human size cotton candy bags. AWESOME!
Ok I wasn't making this mini list without a zombie movie. It's debatable whether or not you'd want to consider these creatures zombie like, but all I'm saying is the kid who put a bullet through his head comes back haha. Whatever, this movie seems like it's been sitting on the shelf for a while, and it's definitely not one to ignore for too long. It's the better movie of the Grindhouse series so give throw it in the mix!
Not the greatest movie selection for a Friday the 13th night but no one said you had to listen to me!!!!

Eyes shrink to pinpoints,
The deeply crimson scent flooding flaring nostrils.
There is a madness in the metallic tang
Which overwhelms her
Swallowing her up.
With numb, uncaring fingers
She claims her prize.

So I think I might have posted something on here or on Facebook about a Zombie Walk in the state of New Jersey and I didn't know if it was going to happen or not until my friend showed me a flyer that was being handed out at the Mayhem Festival. Well they're doing a Zombie Walk in Asbury Park, New Jersey on October 30th. The cool thing about this though is that it's actually all part of "ZombieCon" I think this is the first zombie convention that I've heard of and that's so fucking cool!
Anyways, I requested a single merchandise table even though I'm not selling anything. I was going to set up a table with some free Zombie Digest stickers and buttons if they filled out the mailing list shit and took a flyer. There will eventually be merchandise stuff like that. Hopefully switching this site over to a www.zombiedigest.com too. Wouldn't that be friggin sweet? Soon soon soon. I'm just happy to see my state doing something so cool other than womens golfing tournaments and people making a big deal about Snooki sightings.
Until next time
KEEP SURVIVING!
