First off, thanks to everyone who stopped by the site in the past week. I appreciate the visits and hope you found something worthwhile to read at The Horror Geek site.

It's another Friday, so there's lots of new stuff to peruse.

First up, brand spanking new reviews of Quarantine, the film that inspired it, [Rec], and one of my contenders for horror film of the year, Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer.

If that weren't exciting enough, I've got more horror news than any of the major networks. Find out about Guillermo Del Toro and Antonio Bayona's new project, check out the trailer for David Goyer's The Unborn, watch a clip from the animated horror movie Dead Space: Downfall (a companion piece to EA's new game) and more. If you're looking for Twilight trailer news or anything like that, you're gonna have to look elsewhere--sorry, I just can't bring myself to cover that.

If you're jonesing for older stuff, the review archive continues to grow at a slow but steady pace. Most of my old reviews (from A-K) are now in the Film Review section. Only a few hundred more to go! They may all be live by Christmas!

Anyway, enjoy this week's updates.

JACK BROOKS was a helluva fun flick. Great times all around. I too wish there had been some more monster killin' action towards the end but the last shots set up an awesome sequel I hope happens. Great review.

Quarantine did its job well enough, good for a watch.


Jack Brooks was disappointing to me because I had heard so many good things, but it was a lot of non-interesting humor set up and redundancy up to the end events where they brought out the really fun effects. Yeah, I didn't like it.
