Doug Bradley is best known for his role in Clive Barker’s Hellraiser as Pinhead. A role he embraced and turned into one of the best franchise monsters of the 20th century. But Doug Bradley is much more than just Pinhead. Upon meeting him at Horror Hound Weekend, I discovered his Spinechillers series. A collection of [...]

No Comments »Music Review – 2001 Maniacs Field of Screams
October 10th, 2010 JimmyZ This was a fun CD. Filled to bursting with 50 tracks and pushing 80 minutes of audio ecstasy. There are a few very interesting items of note on here. A track written by Herschell Gordon Lewis. A track sung by Bill Moseley. And purely based on names my two favorites. . . Jimmy Psycho and [...]

October 12th, 2009 JimmyZ Not sure how much review needs to be written about this. The Ultimate Vampire Soundtrack was put together by Horror-Web, so all of these tracks are great. We start with the theme song to Dark Shadows. That was an incredible series. Groundbreaking really. And I for one get chills everytime I hear the theme song [...]
Music Review – Voltaire: To the Bottom of the Sea
January 27th, 2009 JimmyZ The newest release by one of my favorite artists, Voltaire, was actually not what I expected. The music itself is great, the songs as unique and creative as ever. Several songs definitely held a dark theme, though the music is still lively and fun. But why on Earth did he title the album “To the [...]

August 27th, 2008 JimmyZ Scores are hard to review. This disc calls itself a soundtrack, but it is really a score. Mark Snow does a wonderful job as always. His music is interesting and well done. However, something was missing in this. The original theme. How can you have an X-Files cd without the original theme playing on it [...]

July 20th, 2008 JimmyZ I listen to a lot of Celtic and filk (by Mercedes Lackey) music. The song, Dark and Stormy Night is filk and sung from the point of view of a bard. The singer has a voice that would best be classified as tenor, his name is Paul Espinoza and he sings with a group called [...]
Music Review – Jagermiester tour 6-13-2008 at Pop’s
June 21st, 2008 JimmyZ Pop’s is a wonderful place to go see a concert in the St. Louis area. I have been there a number of times. Sometimes for concerts, sometimes for the pool tables and that one time at Halloween when I was Pinhead (but, that is another story.)
