The grue-crew have been dreading this film for sometime, even jokingly labeling the film Dracula Unseen. Aside from Dave, who may have been literally offended by the film, the reviews are surprising positive but with reservations. Horror? No, not at all. Action film? Yeah, Doc and Thomas even suggest it is closer to a superhero film. Twists and turns, baby.\r\nWhat Have You Been Watching: The Walking Dead Season 5\r\nTerminus, oh, my. That story is continued in the season 5 premiere of The Walking Dead in surprising and exciting ways.

Yes, even Thomas was seduced into watching this episode.\r\n  \r\nWhat Have You Been Watching: Busan International Film Festival\r\nJoseph Perry returns as the HNR man-on-the-street, or better yet man-abroad, as he provides the first report from the popular Busan International Film Festival. The films covered this week are Live TV from South Korea and Ghost Rituals from Malaysia.\r\n \r\nFilm Review: Extraterrestrial (2014)\r\nDoc admits to being a fan of The Vicious Brothers, the directing team behind Grave Encounters. They are back with a sci-fi horror mash up with aliens and cabin in the woods blend of action, shocks, gore and humor. The film is called Extraterrestrial featuring the ever popular Michael Ironside in a cameo\/supporting role. The film gets a seal of approval from The Black Saint. \r\nHorror News of the Week for 10\/13\/2014 \r\nDave brings you the Horror News of the Week with news of a potential Resident Evil TV series in the works.
