Although it is too late for Creepsters to catch Re-Animator, there are still three perfectly decent spooky films showing at the Regency Fairfax for under 10 buckaroo banzais: October 17th: THE LOST BOYS – Synopsis: Teen dreams Corey Haim (Representing all that is good in this world) and Corey Feldman […] Read more
Let’s see. If you crossed Extreme Pumpkins, the über-pumpkin carving book by Tom Nardone, with Extreme Makeover and… nip/tuck… Oh, nevermind. h/t> my house is cuter than yours. Read more
