It’s yet again another trip to ‘Camp Blood’ for some unlucky teenagers in Friday The 13th Bloodbath! This three issue series was written by Brian Pulido  and Mike Wolfer. It was published in 2024 and is worth hitting ebay for if you are a Friday fan.
The story seems simple at first.  After a hysterical prologue several teens [...]

A lot of you are surely familiar with the 1990’s series entitled the “Camp Crystal Lake” novels by Eric Morse (William Pattison). Though they did not feature Jason himself, they did manage to maintain the mood and tone of the original Friday the 13th series.
Many months ago I got the chance to interview Pattison (read that [...]

I was thinking about his character the other day. Julius never gets the credit he deserves. He stood toe to toe with Jason Voorhees.

Julius:  “Let’s go find this mutha f*cka before he finds us”
McCullough:  “You’ll do no such thing, I’m in charge [...]

One of my favorite singers ever makes the title track for my favorite series of all time. I was real excited to see how it all worked out. Even at 10 years old, I knew it was going to special. After the movie was over in the theater, I rode my bike home and begged my [...]

Hot Ice, which performed [...]

Speaking to reporters on the set of A Nightmare On Elm Street, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form discussed what the impending Friday the 13th sequel could be.
So the original was both not gristly enough to be fetishistic, but also potentially not gristly enough. That’s a fine line for the prolific Platinum Dunes team to walk. [...]

Someone had to do it. It’s just never happened. Someone had to make Roy Burns in action figure form. So, thanks to Mezco, I took a chance and made it happen in a sense. What the heck am I rambling about you may ask? I’m talking about the upcoming Mez-its art show brought to [...]
