Hat-tip to Professor Bleak on the forum. Okay, so maybe a Twilight fan is the lowest of the low-hanging fruit – but I’m still going to laugh at this fan letter raging at The Wolfman.
To whom this may concern:
This movie was a complete waste and I feel that it offends ALL Twilight Fans around the world, that including myself. For one, it was a COMPLETE remaking of the Wolf Pack from the Twilight Saga: New Moon. It gives the werewolves a bad name and makes them look like some deformed mutation of a rabid dog. I actually started to like werewolves after seeing Jacob Black and all his awesomeness on the big screen at the movies. That was until I saw your crappy remake of what you call to be a “were wolf”. I don’t see how you live with yourself for making it the way you did. If I made this movie, I would be ashamed to even admit that I owned it. How can a werewolf be killed with a silver bullet? Better yet, have you saw the transformation of the man that is “supposed” to be the wolf? He sits in some chair and his entire body turns in to some mutated freak. If you would watch the transformation of Jacob Black, (Taylor Lautner) he doesn’t come close to looking as fake, cheap and or mutated as the wolf man. You tell me, who looks to be the better werewolf. Your stupid Wolf Movie didn’t even make the top Movie for the charts; Valentines Day WITH TAYLOR Lautner! Get that this is MY oppinion and I felt I wanted to express it because I saw that your email was on your site. I wanted to let you know this is what i thought of the wolf man that sucks.
TEAM JACOB- cuz hes a REAL WEREWOLVE!

Hardcore Gaming 101 is a really nifty site that I check every once in a while. Their design is incredibly lo-fi but the content is stellar. I just noticed that they’ve done an article on Phantasmagoria and its sequel. You might have heard us mention recently that Phantasmagoria is now available from GOG.com and that it was a game that really flipped our lids when we were younger. In truth, the game is pretty middling but it’s fun to reminisce.

Another time-waster link for you: Cracked.com’s 6 Baffling Mistakes Every Horror Franchise Must Make. I must admit, I unironically like at least half of the movies they lampoon in this piece.

Interesting stuff in this AV Club interview with filmmaker Ti West (House of the Devil). Bummed to hear that he isn’t pleased with how Cabin Fever 2 ended up.
