Horror Shout Outs at the Oscars!

This isn't only a great day for women in Hollywood, its a FABULOUS day for horror fans!

The gal of the hour (and the one I was rooting for), Kathryn Bigelow won the Oscar for best director! She is not only the first woman in history to win best director, she is also the director of one of THE BEST vampire films ever made, Near Dark! Granted, she didn't win for Near Dark... since that was made over 20 years ago...but still, props to a fellow uterus for winning!

Also, Roger Corman won a lifetime achievement award which makes be endlessly happy. Call him a hack all you like but you can't deny those Vincent Price Edgar Allen Poe films he did are total unabashed AWESOMENESS. I love ya, Roger, you old coot!

Also, Hollywood gave us horror fans a shout out with a little tribute to horror. A little cheesy tribute to horror yes but HEY, any bone ya throw to me as a fan is usually appreciated! Though I still stand by my convictions that it should have been introduced by Kathy Bates instead of the Twilight folk. Not because I hate Twilight (I'm pretty indifferent about it) but because I really don't consider Twilight in the horror genre. I also don't consider Edward Scissorhands to be a horror film either but they stuck that one in there too. *shrugs*
Oh Hollywood. You crazy.

See the tribute here. This also includes the great Paranormal Activity parody they did on the show:

And...erm......anyone else thought Eli Roth looked adorable in his little tuxedo?


He was there with his bro-mantic partner, Quentin Tarantino. I think they make a cute couple and just want to fold Eli up and put him in my pocket...even if he is over six feet tall. I may not think his movies are the end all be all and yes, he can be kinda a douche at times...an adorable adorable douche. But he'll always be a little pocket gore hound to me.
...Don't you ask me to explain my attractions! Stacy already admitted to wanting to have sex with Jason so at LEAST give me this!
Don't judge meeeeee!!!

Monsters Vs Madmen...IS BACK!?! Round 7!

Holy Shit! I almost forgot about this!
Well I forgot then was wracking my brain for a new opponent then I saw cheesecake and well yeah...forgot.
Anyways, On with the fighting!

Alas...
Candyman, we hardly knew ye. But you DID last two rounds AND you were neck and neck with Severen there for a while! My hooked avenger, you almost made it.

So Severen made it to the next round...and I have to admit I was rooting for him simply because Bill Paxton has never been sexier, damnit!

BUT will Severen live against a new foe? One of his OWN kind!?

Round 7 Monsters vs. Madmen we have:

The frighteningly hawt Severen from Near Dark

VS

The I'm frightened I FIND him hawt, Marlow from 30 Days of Night.

Vampire vs Vampire!!

Yup. We got the devil may care violence of Severen up against the cold calculated leadership of Marlow. Okay, for ME this a close one.

Lets see them in action. Unfortunately the videos are not embeddable so click below!

Marlow uses a gal as human bait and gives his pals a snack

And Severen...is still a dick.

Shout out your votes in the comments area and we'll tally them up and announce the winner next week.

3,2,1 - FIGHT!
