Summer is coming to an end, but we can’t possibly let it slide by without talking about one of the best campfire stories out there, The Burning. Out at Camp Blackwood, a group of teenagers decide to play a prank on the camp’s caretaker, but it goes terribly wrong. What was supposed to be harmless, [...]

Any fan knows that it’s not easy to find a good horror film that was made in the last few years. While everything is being remade, made into sequels or just plain bad nowadays, we bring you a solid, original feature- I Sell the Dead. Arthur Blake (Dominic Monaghan) and Willie Grimes (Larry Fessenden) are [...]

“Welcome to Stake Land, kid.” Director Jim Mickle and co-writer/lead Nick Damici have gone beyond the “horror” and “vampire” genre cliches to create a post-apocolyptic road movie that kicks major ass. Stake Land builds you up with scenes of laughing, ice cream and dancing that give the characters and audience hope of a New Eden [...]

This Slash & Dine post is a very special one for us. We would like to dedicate it to our beautiful friend Jess, who married the nicest mean guy we know, Steve, earlier this year on Friday the 13th. We can’t think of a better way to show them and the rest of our horror-lovin’ [...]

Every 4th of July, we like to celebrate our freedom in the good ole US of A with some great food, cold beer & a damn good movie. This time around, we teamed up with Brutal As Hell’s Editor-In-Chief, Marc, to bring you recipes for the masterpiece that is Jaws. Since we’re pretty sure you’ve [...]

“No false metal.” Trick or Treat, not to be confused with the 2007 Trick ‘R Treat (although that’s a great film too), is a hugely underrated flick. Remember Skippy from Family Ties? Well, he plays an entirely different role in this as our main metal head, Eddie “Ragman”, spending his teenage days blasting heavy metal [...]

There are a lot of films out there about Charles Manson, but none compare to the greatness that is The Manson Family. This unique, intense, acid trip of a film came from the visionary genius, Jim VanBebber. Before The Manson Family came along, VanBebber was making low budget movie magic with the works of Deadbeat [...]

Vincent Price was one of a kind. Truly a horror icon, he could scare us and make us laugh all in the same breath. We could go on for days about the films he appeared in that have become some of the world’s finest work in movie history, but since it’s all about Vincent Price [...]

They were warned… They were doomed… And on Friday the 13th, nothing will save them. In 1980, a little boy from Camp Crystal Lake and his mother terrorized us all in what would become one of the best selling franchises in horror history, Friday the 13th. Over the next 29 years, we watched as Jason [...]

They’re back from the grave and ready to party! Return of the Living Dead is fucking awesome. If you’ve seen it, then you already know that, but for those of you that haven’t, let us elaborate. At a small medical supply warehouse, new employee Freddy gets the full tour of the facility from his boss, [...]

Yes, we’ll admit it – we love when animals attack. Bulls, monkeys, sharks, dogs, you name it, we like it. We’re pretty sure most of you have seen Jaws, Ben, Piranha, Cujo & The Birds, but all these recent Cadbury Egg commercials reminded us of Night of the Lepus. By no means a great film [...]

“Who are they? And what do they want?” There have been a few attempts from wrestlers to make a good movie, but none have come close to being as great as Rowdy Roddy Piper in They Live (OK, maybe Hulk Hogan in No Holds Barred, but that’s up for debate). They Live takes place in [...]

If there’s one woman in this world that we admire (besides our moms and Dolly Parton, of course) it’s the Mistress of the Dark, Elvira. Who could forget that hair, that attitude, those jokes and those boobs?! Cassandra Peterson, AKA Elvira, has had one hell of a life. Before she became the horror hostess that [...]

“I’ll not rest ’til I have me gold. Curse this well that me soul shall dwell ’til I find me magic that breaks the spell.“ Usually St. Patrick’s Day doesn’t mean much to us, but we couldn’t resist getting festive for you when we thought about the 1993 film Leprechaun. After getting his gold coins [...]

by Nicole Mikuzis and Megan Owens There’s nothing better to us than spending a night watching a Hammer film. Take the usual Hammer layout- incredible set designs, Shakespearean acting and hot naked Victorian chicks, add in a gypsy, a dwarf, and some sexually charged, blood-sucking animals and you’ll know the Vampire Circus is in town. [...]

by Nicole Mikuzis and Megan Owens Baron Frankenstein, Dr. Van Helsing, Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Who, Grand Moff Tarkin, and so many more. Whatever character you think of Peter Cushing as, one thing is certain- he left a lasting impression in that role. We here at Slash & Dine feel the need to dedicate some space [...]

Birdemic: Shock, Terror & Great Food by Nicole Mikuzis and Megan Owens Remember when we told you about Troll 2 being the best worst movie ever? Well, Birdemic is definitely in the running to take away that title. The first time we saw this movie Nicole was working for a film company and brought home [...]
