Behind the Mask:The Rise of Leslie Vernon

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...eoid=628541321

Check the trailer above. It's being released this January.

Behind the Mask:The Rise of Leslie Vernon
It's a great horror comedy that doesn't skimp on the horror or the comedy. Much like Hatchet (also releasing this January), this one is for the fans. It manages to poke fun at horror conventions while staying fully entrenched in the genre. Great fun and a director to watch.

Scott Glosserman (BTM) and Adam Green (Hatchet) are soon to be mentioned in the same breath as Eli Roth, Alex Aja & Rob Zombie as part of the "Splat Pack"

I'll never understand why perfectly good horror has to be ruined with the addition of comedy. Oh well. Guess I'll have to stick with Asian horror for a bit longer.

In the context of a few of a few good Asian films, I agree. Of course, it is now being overused.

doesnt sound like that easy a target .. at least not here.

i've been to a couple in Toronto and they're fairly low key .. thet are combined with sci-fi, amine, comics and gaming .. and horror gets the lowest % of the draw.

luckily for the guests most of them have sci-fi crossovers - otherwise precious few people would know who they are.

ha!

the definition of "convention" I was going for was: a rule, method, or practice established by usage.

it has nothing to do with an assemblage of fanboys:D

If you coined the phrase Splat Pack, you deserve an award. That's fucking awesome, and I hope it becomes common nomenclature to the point where it becomes faux pa and we can bitch about it.
