There’s no doubt that John Carpenter‘s 1986 kung fu-action-comedy-horror-fantasy Big Trouble in Little China is a universally-beloved, genre-bending cult classic, or at least it should be (and boy do I love using dashes in my sentences). But doesn’t that plot seem more than slightly weird and overly complicated to you? It must have seemed that way to star Kurt Russell because his character, swaggering blowhard trucker Jack Burton, spends most of the movie in a state of confusion. One plausible explanation for Burton’s constant befuddlement could be that Russell never even saw a script, as the video you can watch here below makes a strong case for.

The latest (and final) parody trailer for The Muppets has been released and you can watch it here below.

Much like a snake swallowing its own tail, this entire arm of the marketing campaign for the big screen comeback of Jim Henson’s classic creations has finally come full circle. In the rush to cram in quick spoofs of Paranormal Activity 3, Puss in Boots, Happy Feet 2, and the next Twilight movie (“Breaking Prawn”….get it?), the trailer department also decided to throw in a parody of the first Muppets parody trailer, the soon-to-be-legendary “Green with Envy” teaser, because…. why the hell not?

It’s that time of year again, boys and girls! The temperature has dropped, the leaves have turned from green to varying shades of orange and red; children dress in the guise of their favorite characters, and the flickering of candles show the yellow grins of the jack-o-lanterns adorning the porches of your neighborhood. It’s Halloween, folks, and while there’s plenty of people out there that like cute, plastic pumpkins on their doors, we here at Geeks of Doom like our Halloweens a little more horrifying. So, it’s with this, Halloweekend, that I will be bringing to you a series of horror-themed features that showcase the wicked side of geek entertainment.

In the first installment of what I like to call Halloweekend of Doom, I’m going to explore 13 comic books that should get you in the mood for the greatest time of year. The list is in no particular order, and this isn’t intended to be the be all end all of horror comics, but these comics are great to read during Halloween. I’ll cover some that can be considered family friendly, but the majority of these are strictly dark and for mature audiences.

Ti West is an up-and-coming name on the horror front, and if you saw his indie hit The House of the Devil, you’d know why.

Though he did The Roost and Trigger Man beforehand and Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever after, House of the Devil is considered to be his horror coming out party, and, equally so, The Innkeepers is widely considered to be his true follow-up.

The movie is set in a New England hotel—thought to be one of the areas most haunted locations—which is getting ready to close its doors for good when two employees decide to do some paranormal investigating.
