For the last year, Canadian comic creator Todd McCullough has been writing, drawing, and self-publishing his stellar werewolf horror comic “Who Needs The Moon?” as “pay what you want” PDFs. With the series at the halfway mark, and with plans to complete the remaining for issues by the end of 2014, Todd’s teaming up with Under Belly Comics and Kickstarter to publish the entire series as a 216 page full-colour book.

Sorry!
Apologies for the recent lack of posts. Other than a once-monthly post by Craig, it’s just me running this site, and I have been very busy with my day job and two side projects I need to finish in order to make my financial advisor retrieve my credit card from the deep freeze. (more…)
“Who Needs The Moon?” part 4: an antihero beyond redemption
The next instalment of Todd McCullough‘s stellar horror graphic novel “Who Needs the Moon?” is now available via Gumroad (and comiXology pretty soon, I would guess). This is the fourth issue, the midpoint of the story, and the most horrifying entry yet. (more…)

Australian indie rock band The Griswolds release their first full-length album Be Impressive on August 25th (or 26th, depending on where you live), and the video for the single “Beware The Dog” is gory, goofy and a lot of fun! (more…)

Three classic werewolf films get the Trailers From Hell! treatment
Nothing underscores the size and depth of the Internet for me like the realization that the cool new thing I just discovered is actually an entrenched and respected phenomenon. Did you know about Trailers From Hell? Were you aware that film director Joe Dante (yes him) and many of his filmmaker pals have been giving trailers for horror, sci-fi and cult movies a paternal sort of MST3K treatment since 2007?

Sketchy dudes in camo & Bill Oberst Jr. with a knife: “Werewolf Rising” trailer & DVD release
Here’s what I can tell you about the upcoming werewolf movie “Werewolf Rising”, courtesy of Shock Till You Drop’s haphazard “exclusive”.
- It tells the story of a probably-less-helpless-than-she-seems woman, Emma, who returns to her deep-woods Arkansas family home for some “soul-searching”. If the trailer’s accurate, she’s interrupted by creepy guys wearing camouflage, a surprised and gentle-looking wolf, and… SOMETHING IN THE WOODS.
- It’s written and directed by BC Furtney, and stars Bill Oberst Jr., Danielle Lozeau, Melissa Carnell and Irena Murphy. Bill Oberst Jr. owns, and I’ll watch him in anything, even if it’s a toothpaste commercial. Check him out in The Beast, an effective short werewolf horror film from 2012.
- The trailer is surprisingly forthcoming with the werewolf effects, which seem comprised of a practical suit that looks 50% realistic, 80% interesting, and 0% like the werewolf on the DVD cover. I like them big ears, though.
- The STYD article has the DVD release date as September 8th, but it also misspells Bill’s last name, so I’m more inclined to trust Amazon, which has it slated for an October 14th release.
October’s the perfect time for pulp: pumpkin guts and movies like this. Have a look at the trailer below, and pre-order it on Amazon for $11.99.
Hey America! Get ready for WolfCop
As reported by Shock Till You Drop and corroborated through official channels, Canada’s favourite alcoholic werewolf lawman is headed south. Image Entertainment has secured U.S. distribution rights to Lowell Dean’s horror-comedy WolfCop, which means officer Lou Garou will soon be splattering gore, puke and other bodily fluids across the screens of theatres across America. No release date has been announced yet, but I’d wager the cost of Lou’s bar tab that it’ll be in theatres in time for Halloween.
Limited werewolf & fantasy creature art commissions from Viergacht
Fantastic monster / fantasy / creature artist and longtime friend of the site Viergacht has opened up a few commission slots!
I typically paint things like people, animals and monstery critters. Check around the gallery. Digital works will get you a print-quality file in whatever file format you prefer (tif, psd, png, etc.). If you want something you don’t see here, like an animated gif, con badge, tattoo design, whatever, feel free to email [viergacht at gmail dot com] and ask.
I’ve been the lucky recipient of several werewolfy Viergacht paintings thanks to my writing, my birthday and my participation in dumb speculation about “Back To The Future“. If you’d like some eerily realistic, biologically plausible monster art, now’s your chance!
