Rob Zombie’s Remake Of The Blob Will Be Actually Terrifying

The Blob is getting a reboot by Rob Zombie, who has a $30 million budget and promises to make the 1950s movie’s “jello-looking thing” horrifying.

There’s A Reason Live-Action Tentacle Porn Never Caught On [NSFW]

A woman decides to do aerobics naked, only to be startled by a guy — who turns out to have an evil alien parasite (made out of a swiffer) inside him, in this cheesetastic tentacle porn sequence from Breeders.

Survivors When Terry Nation wasn’t busy creating the Daleks and Blake’s 7 — and writing for MacGyver — he was constructing this relentlessly bleak tale of what happens after most of the world drops dead due to a plague. Civilization is in tatters, and all the things we take for granted are gone — will…

Starblazers A plucky crew of humans takes to space in the sunken battleship Yamato, repurposed as a spacecraft, in this melodramatic, thrilling animated space opera. The crew of the Yamato are never anything less than awesome, and the show really gives a feeling of space travel being slow and dangerous — but the show’s real…

Surface This awesome, scary show about giant, electricity-emitting sea beasts had its monstery life cut tragically short after just a half season. But this riveting tale of crytozoology lives on in fans’ hearts. Even though it had very earnest giant monsters, Surface never took itself too seriously. And that’s what made it brilliant. Transformers The…

Dead Set How to make zombies seem fresh again?

Battlestar Galactica (original) Several TV shows tried to capture the fun and excitement of Star Wars in a weekly TV format. But none of them succeeded quite as well as the original BSG, thanks to killer robots with zig-zagging red dot eyes, cute cyberdogs, and hotshot space pilots who smoked cigars and womanized. This show…
