Behind The Mask Of The Horror Actor By Doug Bradley (Pinhead from Hellraiser Franchise) Book Review
Horror movie icon Doug Bradley (Pinhead in most of the Hellraiser movies) released a book in 2004 called Behind The Mask Of The Horror Actor.
Part autobiography, part history book, Doug talks about getting into acting, earlier projects and working on the Hellraiser movies, but also, he talks extensively about other Horror movie icons, like Lon Chaney Sr. and Jr., Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Christopher Lee, Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Robert Englund, and many more.
He also talks extensively about Horror movie characters, like Dracula, Frankenstein, Phantom Of The Opera, Michael Myers, Freddie Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Leatherface, and much more.
He talks about earlier origins of Horror characters too and people who made up many Horror characters, including Clive Barker, who did the forward to the book.
This is a very good book about the history of Horror but also is a partial autobiography of Pinhead himself, Doug Bradley.
I really enjoyed this book.

Rod Stewart Rod The Autobiography Review
Rod Stewart released his autobiography Rod The Autobiography in 2012.
If you are a fan of Sir Rod’s, I cannot recommend this book enough.
He’s done it all and more.
Lots of music, lots of tours, lots of relationships, lots of sports, lots of everything.
He is one of the ultimate “rockstars”.
Get this book.
It is PHENOMENAL!!

John Corabi Horseshoes And Hand Grenades Book Review
Singer/songwriter/guitarist John Corabi (The Scream, Motley Crue, Union, RATT, The Dead Daisies, solo artist) released his autobiography Horseshoes And Hand Grenades in 2022.
I bought it when I saw him earlier this year. Sorry John I was late getting to it.
It’s a great book, though. Co-written with Paul Miles, it traces his life from childhood, some of the crazy things that have happened in his life, all the bands he’s been in, and tons of stories throughout.
If you are a fan of John’s, I cannot recommend this book enough.
It has it all.

My Thoughts on the Terrifier Franchise
As I’ve said in earlier posts, I’m late to the Horror genre.
I’ve been a fan of some Horror movies over the years (Halloween franchise and some of the Horror movies from the 30s, 40s, and 50s), but overall, was never a big fan until the last few years.
I’m still catching up and have a long way to go, but this year, I finally decided to watch the Terrifier movies.
The main character, Art The Clown, started off in an anthology movie called All Hallow’s Eve, and was so popular that a movie with him as the main star was made.
Terrifier is a very low budget Horror movie in which a killer clown (David Howard Thornton) wreaks havoc in very bizarre and gruesome ways.
Terrifier 2 involves Art getting even more gruesome and also has a “final girl” as they are called in Horror movies named Sienna (played by Lauren LaVera) who has to fight against Art.
Terrifier 3 has Sienna being released from a mental hospital and spending Christmas time with family members (her mother was killed in the second movie and her father has been dead for some time), and ultimately having to fight Art again, who of course is more gruesome and evil than ever.
These movies are DEFINITELY NOT for everyone.
I usually would hate movies like these because I am not a fan of extreme blood and gore, but for these movies, this works.
The Terrifier movies have become extremely popular (as I type this, Terrifier 3 has been number one at the box office for a few weeks) and Art The Clown has become a modern day Horror movie icon.
I look forward to seeing the next one because I’m sure there will be another and more after that.

Motley Crue Cancelled EP Review
Now that I can post on the website again, I want to talk a little about the new Motley Crue EP.I’d heard all the songs online, but I love physical product and actually owning it.Motley are the band that many love to hate, especially on the internet, these days.However, I’ve been a fan for 25 years and I always will be.I don’t like that Mick Mars is not there, but Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, and Tommy Lee are still there, along with the amazing guitarist John 5 (John Lowery).I enjoy these songs. I’m not apologizing for it. They rock!I’m glad that Motley finally released more new music and I hope they will release more someday (albums please?!).Thanks guys for all the great music and keep on rocking!!

The Website Is Mostly Back!!
I’m back!!
Over the past few months, I have been having some issues with the website and they are still being worked on.
A few posts went away and the videos are currently off the site (that’s being worked on).
But otherwise, the website is working again and I am able to post stories again.
I am in the process of putting the posts that went away back on here.
The videos hopefully will return soon.
But until then, please feel free to browse the site and enjoy it.
Sorry it’s been awhile, but I’m glad to be back on here.
