Last October, I spent three bitterly cold nights trudging around a Canadian field as a zombie in George A. Romero’s latest horror flick, Survival Of The Dead. It was gruelling, gory and funny and I’ve written it up in the latest issue of FHM. And I can’t have sucked that badly as an “actor” because George agreed to write the foreword to Showgirls, Teen Wolves And Astro Zombies. He is a champion.
Pick up the bumper summer issue of The Mag from JB-Hifi for some righteous ramblings about DVD schlock that’s perfect for when the temperature soars.
For a certain percentage of the population, Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen is the Sexiest Man (Kinda) Alive. For the rest of us, he’s much too emo to get worked up about. But all is not lost! With Extreme Makeover tips from even the crappiest vampire-themed flicks, he might sparkle for everyone yet!
In 2012, a definite Bad Movie We Love, the Earth is being superheated by “mutant neutrinos” supposedly linked to a planetary alignment predicted by the Mayans. First, Gaia explodes in a fiery rain of molten B-movie cheese, and then a magnetic pole switcheroo causes a tectonic boogaloo that unleashes tsunamis big enough to inundate the Himalayas. It’s the very best in schlock science and mysticism from Roland Emmerich, whose last picture, 10,000 B.C., had it that the mammoths built the pyramids. But while 2012 shamelessly appropriates sequences and tropes from just about every major disaster movie of the past, oh, forever, there are still a few crapocalypses too silly for even Emmerich to pilfer. Or maybe… just maybe… he’s saving them for 2013?
