Blu-ray Review: The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence)


by Karl P. Madsen, Horror Editor


Fan – 1. enthusiastic admirer – an enthusiastic admirer of a celebrity or public performer. 2. Same as fanatic (noun)



The sequel to Human Centipede (The First Sequence), Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) is a unique format. Instead of building the second movie off the events, and timeline, of the first film, this sequel uses the First Sequence as the catalyst for the events of the Full Sequence. That’s why this film is 100% medically inaccurate instead of the first Human Centipede’s 100% medically accurate status.

Blu-ray Review: The Fades – Season One (and Giveaway Contest!!)

Who would have guessed that the one doing the vast majority of ass-kicking would be the one wearing the purple pants?
(That’s right, Paul.  Lookin’ at you, buddy.)

by Karissa Barrows, Editor

I have been raised in the horror genre.  In fact, the first movie I can ever remember watching is “The Blob”.  Yep, that one with the big pink thing that consumes people.  Thanks, Dad.  B movies for the win!  Anyway, I’ve loved horror ever since.  That’s usually Karl’s territory here at ComicsOnline, but I got the Blu-ray copy by accident.  So, not only am I going to tell you just a little bit about this amazing series, The Fades, on BBCThree and, as of recent, BBC America, but I’m going to give you the chance to win a DVD of series 1 of your very own.

 

Joey Hershel – Editor-at-Large and Graphic Designer

Joey attended her first SDCC dressed as Red Sonja in the mid-1980s, when it was still at the Civic Center in downtown San Diego. She purchased her first sword at that same Con and discovered what great joy it was to carry around weapons in public. Thus she discovered the art of cosplay.

An avid fan of comics, movies, and everything geek, Joey is right at home here on ComicsOnline.com and donates time on creative services whenever she’s able. In real life she’s a graphic designer, creative director and marketing maven. When she grows up (someday), she hopes to be a comic book artist.

TV Review: The Walking Dead – “Nebraska”

by Kroze Kresky, Media Editor

The Walking Dead finally returns to AMC tonight (after its gun smoking cliffhanger a few months back) with a brand new episode “Nebraska”. After the loss of Sophie, everyone at Herschel’s farm is not in the best of moods when this episode picks up. Rick and our crew of survivors are immedately told to leave the farm by Herschel, who blames Rick for everything that has befallen his family so far. Now the two crews must learn to deal with each other’s presences despite their grievances.
