Mezco has done an outstanding job on the A Nightmare on Elm Street: Mega Scale Talking Freddy Krueger. He is fully detailed as you can see in my video above. He is a great item to add to your collection if you're a big Freddy fan like I am.

Super 7 Masters of the Universe Retro series 1 and 2

When I was a little kid I totally had this thing where my action figures had to be in scale or they couldn't hang out with the other ones.

For example - Star Wars, Buck Rogers, Star Trek, Gi Joe and The Black hole shared the same universe because those were all 3.75 inch. The Masters of the Universe figures were separate because they were too big.

A side note - I'm late to party getting these but I finally got around to picking up Masters of the Universe Retro Action Figures! All these years later He-Man can finally hang out with Luke Skywalker.

Before opening here is carded pictures.















For carded collectors the packaging is fantastic on these. He-Man he comes with his Power Sword and looks like he just came out of the 80's. 



Next up is Skeletor and is my favorite of all of them.  He comes with his staff and is ready to take on He-Man. 




Mer-Man is probably my second favorite of the bunch.  He comes with his sword and is ready for action. He’s got that look as you can see in picture below that he is scared.



Beastman is my least favorite one. He comes with a rope whip. Personally, I don't think it's the fact it's a bad figure (because it's not). I just never liked him very well even in the cartoon.



In Wave 2, Trap Jaw is probably my favorite. He comes with alternate weapons and totally looks ready to fight.



Next in line is Tri-Klops.  Wave 2 just like Wave 1 has the same retro sculpting. Tri-Klops comes with his sword and of course he sees everything.


After Tri-Klops comes Man At Arms. He comes with his Mace weapon and he is available with or without mustache. (My version as you can see is the mustache.)



Last of the wave is Sorceress and probably my least favorite of the line. The face just seems off a little bit, but she does come with her staff.



If you're a fan of retro toys and a fan of Masters Of The Universe these are a must own for you. 

Now for some fun.






You can get these figures right now at Super 7 store.

HELLRAISER III: Pinhead 12" Figure

Mezco is brings us a killer 12" figure! Pinhead traveled to Earth through a puzzle box called the Lament Configuration to harvest human souls. You can tell by looking at this very detailed figure that he is totally ready to harvest some souls. He has a real look to him, comes with his sacred accessories and has a trio of blades that dangle from his robes. In addition, you get two sets of hands. Pinhead has 7 points of articulation and is packaged in a very nice window box if you don't want to free him from his plastic prison. He is available now at http://www.mezcotoyz.com/ as well as other online retailers. Check out some photos below.

"Harvest Lake" Review

Here is my small spoiler free Harvest Lake review. This is the movie I was most looking forward to picking up at Horror Hound. What I liked most about this movie is there was nothing gratuitous. The film is also beautiful to look at as slowly builds tension and is very dark - the more you think about it, it becomes very disturbing. Ellie Church was awesome in it, she keeps getting better and better in everything I see her in. This may be my favorite from director Scott Schirmer so far. Scott does his own thing, I'm so tired of shaky cameras and found footage movies. This is not one of these. I thought Jason Crowe was outstanding as well. It's a different type of role than I have seen him in before. A job was well done by Brian K. Williams with editing and cinematography. I really enjoyed it and I recommend it to my horror friends.
