Congrats to Jeff Hollins, cast and crew for another official film festival entry, this time in the Eerie Horror Film Festival in Eerie, Pa. His Horror Anthology Movie Volume 1 segment entitled “Five Miles Straight Ahead” made the cut and will be shown late October!
The Theatre Bizarre (2011) is a recent horror anthology movie which had the critics and audiences scratching their collective heads, because truly some of the stories in this anthology are “beyond bizarre” to quote the host of that short lived TV series.
Six tales of terror which show plenty of blood, gore and skin and a wrap around “story” starring Udo Kier which doesn’t go anywhere, a few of the highlights include Richard Stanley’s “Mother Of Toads” and Tom Savini’s segment (which he also stars in) called “Wet Dreams.”
This film has shown up on Netflix and is available for download HERE.
The 2nd segment shot for Horror Anthology Movie Volume 1 “Thing In the Shed” has been accepted into the Fear Fete Horror Film Festival 2013.
Below is the new HD teaser clip for Thing In The Shed on Vimeo.

The fourth segment for Volume 1 of The Horror Anthology Movie is a strange one indeed. We are always on the lookout for authentic video or audio of Lovecraft or anything in that vein, and considering that no known film exists with the famous horror author, we were surprised when we received a mysterious package with some very interesting footage.
While we cannot say too much about this film now, we can tell you that it was apparently shot in Arabi, Louisiana during the week of June 9th, 1932 and it is a fact that H.P. Lovecraft was in New Orleans, Louisiana during that time..

What really happened that night in 1932 at the old Warren house in Arabi?
One of the best horror anthology films to come out in the last 20 years, writer – director Michael Dougherty’s fine quartet of Halloween terror tales called “Trick ‘r Treat” is an absolute must see for lovers of good horror films and superb anthologies.
Starring True Blood’s Anna Paquin and seasoned pro Dylan Baker, Trick r Treat contains four films, all of which are worth viewing and some of which are truly exceptional in the sub-genre.
You can purchase this great DVD which is now on sale for 4.99 right HERE.
We just got word that Jeff Hollin’s short film for Horror Anthology Movie Volume 1 has won first place in the short suspense – thriller category at the 2013 Indie Film Gathering in Ohio! This international festival is a popular one so it makes this win that much sweeter! Congrats to Jeff and cast and crew!
Another great Amicus horror anthology movie was the star studded 1971 feature called “The House That Dripped Blood,” starring Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, John Pertwee and the lovely Ingrid Pitt. Four tales of terror with a nice wrap around story make this Amicus offering a sure bet for Halloween night…or any night for that matter!
