Update: Plans Plans Plans!


Tuesday saw the first article in the relaunch of "The Corner of Terror".  Today, I'd like to take the opportunity to give you an idea of what to expect in the days, months, years ahead.

First off, you've probably noticed a sleeker new look that's very similar to our partners at "From the Basement".  Well, it's so the two blogs can put forth a more united, and cohesive "brand" in terms of being recognizable by those just sauntering through.  When you see us, hopefully you'll think of them as well- and vice versa.  I've also streamlined and tidied up the banner a bit, while keeping a nice horror element to it.

You've probably also noticed that I prefaced Tuesday's article with "The Game Room", and that it matches many of the articles I write over in The Basement as well.  Once again- it's intentional, so we can create a stronger tie between the two blogs.  Also it'll help make it a bit easier to search for articles since you can just do a search for "feature category" now too.

So- what can you expect moving forward from me?

Well, you can absolutely expect two articles a week from me- every Tuesday and Thursdays, I will post my articles at 7:00 pm (PST).  I will then post the links on Twitter and Facebook.

Over the next few days, I will be working on a new "logo icon" that I can use for Twitter, etc to replace my current "Zombie Mike" one... though I still love it very much.

Due to my current schedule, I won't be able to bring back "What Movie Wednesday".  I will however TRY to arrange something similar each month.  TRY being the operative word here.

I will also be working on updating the items on my CafePress Shop.  Over the course of the year, I will be showcasing some of the items that can be purchased through it

If I can learn the sound editing software I have, I'm also planning on starting a bi-monthly podcast.  It would be about 1/2 hour long.  I'm going to try to get it set up to debut in Jan 2021.  If the audio podcast does well, I might also try to do a video version as well for YouTube- but that's down the road.

I'm hoping to do some networking, and interest various film makers, performers, etc in doing some "Grave Questions" interviews as well.

I want to create a bit of a community if possible around "The Corner of Terror", so will also be doing my best to reach out to Followers and get ideas, etc.

So, that's where we stand right now.  It's an exciting time for me.  It feels great to be posting here again, and looking forward to making The Corner grow and hopefully prosper in the future.

Zombie Bikers From Detroit (2001)

Over the years, it has been shown that with very little money, a skillful director can put together a high quality horror movie (John Carpenter's " Halloween ", " The Blair Witch Project ", and " Paranormal Activity " being a few of them).  So, when it comes to determining a movie's quality, budget is no longer a negative... Ken and his mother have moved from Hell, Michigan to Grosse Pointe near Detroit.  Upon his arrival, he meets the lovely Courtney, and her jealous suitor Chad.  While Ken and Chad square off, an evil is growing within Detroit and slowly spreading towards Grosse Point... where Ken will meet his destiny ... This week's " What Movie Wednesday " winner was " Zombie Bikers From Detroit "- a low budget horror movie that feels like it was put together as a school project.  High School, or College... I can't really tell. The premise- as stated in my little synopsis is interesting- as was the title.  ...

Meridian: Kiss of the Beast (1990)

Sometimes, a director/producer will surprise you- such was the case during " Terrorpolooza 2012 " when I watched Charles Band's " Meridian: Kiss of the Beast " Catherine Bomarzini has come home after her father's death.  Needing company, she asks Gina to stay with her.  Soon, the two meet a wondering troupe of performers that Catherine invites to dinner at her castle. Catherine find herself pulled into a love triangle and an ancient curse that only she can break. After watching movies like " Evil Bong ", and " Demonic Toys ", I really wasn't expecting too much from this Charles Band movie- but I was pleasantly surprised by it. The story is actually quite interesting with lots of potential for eerie scenes, and character development.  It's a nice twist on the classic " Beauty and the Beast " story.  It's a bit slower than most of Band's other works, but moves smoothly and draws you with it. I have to ad...

Demon Seed (Dean Koontz)

  Susan has withdrawn from the world  after her divorce from her abusive husband.  Her mansion contains state of the art household automation.  She is secure from the dangers of modern Life.  She is safe from an unsafe world... Too bad her mansion had other ideas... The idea of a Alexa/Siri controlled house going haywire may sound like something written within the past decade, but you might be surprised that Dean Koontz actually wrote this book back in 1973. That's right.  Just five years after " 2001: A Space Odyssey " hit theatres, Koontz wrote this book brining HAL to a more personal level, while predicting the advent of programs like Alexa and Siri. This book is actually a pretty quick read at 301 pages.  The story progresses and builds at a steady and fast pace.  The writing is smooth and seamless as the tension and events unfold before you.  I lost track of time as I turned page after page.  I loved that this book was written from ...
