About George McDougall
Born in London, I moved to Edinburgh at a very young age. I went to school here and then onto university where I graduated in Computer Science. I have since moved back to London with my fiancee and spend my time working and travelling between both wonderful cities.
George McDougall purchased this apartment in 2011
Why George McDougall chose Stockbridge
There are 2 reasons why I purchased this property and these are 'location' and 'space'. Anyone who knows Edinburgh knows that Stockbridge is probably the most desirable suburb in the entire city. With it's vast array of restaurants (including Michelin star), bars and independent shops, it's the perfect place to base yourself for a trip to the city. In terms of size, the apartment is very spacious and comfortably sleeps 6 people. Additionally, it's top floor location and large windows really make the apartment feel bright with lovely views over the Water of Leith river.
What makes this apartment unique
The apartment comes with free on-street parking which in Edinburgh is a very unique feature. The location benefits from being just a short walk from Princes Street, whilst at the same time allowing guests to sample the riverside and peaceful walks of the Water of Leith and the Botanic Gardens.
Guestbook comments from the owner
All interactions with the host were positive; he was helpful, responsive, and prompt at all times. The flat was comfortable and as tidy and attractive as pictured. The neighbourhood is lovely with lots of shops and restaurants, yet Edinburgh's top sites and attractions are easy to reach on foot. We were able to park our car free of charge in the resident parking attached to the building. We hope to stay here again soon!

What is the best way to sell sterling silver flatware?Posted by: | Comments
I have a 154 piece set of Reed and Barton sterling silver flatware in the pattern Tara. This pattern has been around since the 1950s and was recently discontinued. The silver has never been used and was in its original factory sealed plastic until April of 2011 when it was put into a beautiful Reed and Barton tarnish resistant case. I have researched the value and as new it is certainly worth more than k. I am looking to get about k given the silverware has been taken out of the packaging. I don't want to sell it for scrap as it would be worth little. I'd love to find the right buyer who would cherish and USE this silver. I know I would never use it myself and it was gifted to me. What would be the best way to sell it? I'm not interested in eBay, Craigslist, etc. if an auction house would be able to sell it I think that would be the best way to reach the right buyer but I have no idea how to contact an auction house, how they work, etc. if anyone has any advice as to how I could sell this please let me know.

Can you save silverware or flatware that has accidentally been thrown in a fire?Posted by: | Comments
My husband and I were cleaning up the wrapping paper mess from our wedding gifts. He took all of the trash and set it on fire at his parent's house in the country. I accidentally missed one 5 piece set of silverware and was in the big bon fire without us noticing it. Later we found it and it is brown, blue, pink, and silver now. However, it held its shape perfectly. The butter knife started to rust but the others are not rusting. I don't think this has ever happened to anyone before; I couldn't find anything about burnt silverware on google!
Is there any chemical or soaking method that will restore it like new?
How can I locate information about antique silver plated dishes?Posted by: | Comments
I found two very old looking silver plated dishes. I know very little about antiques let alone whether or not these are antiques but im looking for a method in which to find out when they were made and how much theyre worth. One says community on it and thats the only makers mark, the other one says Garland - Rogers Bros. 1847 - and the number 9278 If anyone can help me start my search id appreciate it. I already tried starting research on google but stopped because of my lack of knowledge in trying to specify what exactly I have here, all i got were long lists of spoons and flatware thousands long.
Mixing sterling silver plated flatware with stainless steel flatware (details)?Posted by: | Comments
Not sure where to post this. I heard somewhere some time ago that it's a bad idea to combine your sterling silver flatware with stainless flatware in the dishwasher because the stainless can cause the silver to warp/rust/fade/become discolored. Is this true? My husband recently bought me some silver plated flatware and I was wondering if this is true.

Single Review: American Hi-Fi Returns In Fine Form With 'Golden State'By Nikita Aug 24, 2014
Boys next door, Pop Punk band American Hi-Fi is back with their latest single Golden State and is slated for the release of their new album Blood and Lemonade. Filmed in the studio of singer Stacy Jones, Golden State encapsulates the emotions of an agonizing break up or tiff which ratchets up the angst till it explodes in the chorus questioning the doubts of a relationship.
It is a loopy and psychedelic Rock song, accompanied with staccato guitar power chords together with the chomps and spanks of the drums which heightens the chaos of the situation and possesses its own rhythmic logic. Often resembling a whirlwind which one faces after a traumatic break up.
It is a shame that I was unaware about the great American Hi- Five and I chanced upon them a few days ago. Golden State captivated me upon the first listen.
Who are you? What am I fighting for? I Just got to know/ Cause I'll never change your mind. Questions which many of us are constantly asking ourselves from time to time when we are caught in a situation. Be it over an altercation with our partners or best friend, such questions are bound to surface. It is a song which is relatable to many of us and leaves voices lingering in our heads before they deliquesce.
American Hi- Fi definitely nailed their new release, love the overall arrangement of the song. An addictive song which is suitable after a trining day or a work out song in the gym!
Single Review: Sam Smith Do It For Love Without Money On His MindBy Nikita Aug 16, 2014
Heart throbbed sensation Sam Smith is certainly able to sweep a pool of girls off their feet. Sam Smith is a charismatic singer who possesses an impeccable crooned-sultry vocal. With a spot on falsetto and wide octave range, the upbeat song Money On My Mind from his latest album In The Lonely Hour grabs the attention and connection from listeners upon the first listen.
The lyrics which strikes a chord within me is I don't have money on my mind/ I do it for love, it is something relatable to many of us. Many a times, when we dive into a new field we are usually doing it for the money instead of the passion. Based on personal experiences, passion and love will certainly take one to greater heights and these values are certainly reflected in Sam Smith's single. Let's admit, many of us are so caught up with money making that we tend to neglect our emotions and we are clamped in between a chain of monotonous tasks which we aren't enjoying.
At the end of the day, we should be enjoying life to the fullest and as Sam Smith say's it "Don't want to see the numbers/ I want to see heaven." This can be something which we can all take home, to pursue our desired dreams instead of caring what people may perceive of us. At the end of it, we are in control of our destiny we should live to please ourselves and the rewards will be fulfilling!
Melanie Martinez's Dollhouse Music Video May Give You NightmaresBy Justin Feb 20, 2014
Does this peculiar girl who sounds similar to Lorde and Lana Del Ray look familiar to you? If you have been an avid viewer of The Voice US, then you may remember Melanie Martinez from Team Adam Levine.
With the release of her first dark-pop single, Dollhouse, US Magazine is already dubbing her as the singing reality show's first breakout star. From her haunting sound, artistry and originality; this is the type of talent lacking in the music industry these days. (P/s: The mv was written by Martinez herself)
In her Dollhouse music video, Martinez dresses up as a demented doll, singing about a family that look picture perfect on the surface, but in reality they couldn't be more dysfunctional. Remember Bree Van Dee Kamp from Desperate Housewives?
"Hey girl, look at my mom, she's got it going on. Ha, you're blinded by her jewellery. When you turn your back she pulls out a flask and forgets his infidelity," she sings; exposing her well-dressed mum as a drunk. Cate Blanchett's award-winning performance in the acclaim Blue Jasmine immediately comes to mind.
Dad is having an affair with a slut, while her brother is smoking pot. Yet she has to "smile for the picture. Everyone thinks that we're perfect, please don't let them look through the curtains." Pretty demented huh?
This depiction of a family full of secrets is brutally honest. Having encountered my fair share of plastic people, and being pressured to be "perfect" in the eyes of society made watching Dollhouse very relatable.
Lady Gaga Unveils Massive Eurotrash Track 'Venus'By admin Oct 28, 2013
Lady Gaga has just premiered her new song Venus a few hours ago. Co-written by the Applause singer with the help of DJ White Shadow, Hugo Leclercq, Dino Zisis, Nick Monson and Sun Ra, the song was expected to serve as the second official single but was replaced by the R-Kelly-assisted track Do What U Want.
Our quick verdict.
We dodged a bullet. Thank god Do What U Want stopped the Birth of Venus.
I like the melody during the chorus, which sounds like it could have been on an Abba album from the early 80s. And that is pretty much the only redeeming feature of this - every other aspect is kinda terrible. The song comes across as a self-parody at times.
God bless the executives at Interscope for stepping in.

Justin Bieber's Haunting Version of 'As Long As You Love Me'By Zack Feb 06, 2013
Justin Bieber has just released an acoustic album full of popular songs from his 2012 smash Believe. The original album was met with mixed perceptions, some critics praising his new and more mature sound with others doubting his transfer into a more electronic and dance infused musical style.
One of the singles off of the original album As Long As You Love Me has been redone beautifully in an acoustic fashion. The original version is choppy, and distracts the listener from the actual musical masterpiece through the overuse of dubstep and electronic infused beats. By stripping it done to the essence of the song, Bieber successfully conveys raw emotion while singing simply over an acoustic guitar.
It seems as though the young pop sensation is crying out to be loved, or wanted by someone who he just can't convince to give him a chance. This can lead us to speculate as to whether this new, more emotional version is inspired by his recent break up with fellow young starlet Selena Gomez. The two were rumored to have broken up due to infidelity on Bieber's part, with Gomez breaking things off.
Clear any previous judgments towards the Canadian singer and have a listen to the beautifully bare version of the massively popular song below!

Planning Permission Lyrics - Darkness
I'm gonna build you, a house!
I'm a man with two good hands, two good hands and a plot of land
And I'm on a mission, I've got a vision and planning permission
I've got twenty-thousand bricks to lay
Honey I don't have a place to stay
I've just got this canvas tent and a machine to mix the cement
You think I've lost the plot
I have not!
I've sheltered you from the rain
You and I will defy the elements again!
I need a home in which to revel
I need a place to keep my spirit level
And I know the right guys
Cos I used to work in building supplies
Crafting a humble abode
Concrete and steel by the wheelbarrow load
Finish at two whos gonna chop the barroos
I've got a trowel and I ain't afraid to use it!
You think I've lost the plot
I have not!
I've sheltered you from the rain
You and I will defy the elements again!

Greg Berlanti Shepherding Dark Archie Comics-Based Series Riverdale at Fox
Greg Berlanti is a TV force to be reckoned with these days, what with his production company's "Arrow" and "The Flash" burning up the small screen; and now he's dipping his toes into another comic's universe with "Riverdale," based on the Archie gang.
Here are the details, straight from ArchieComics.com:
The news is out: "Riverdale," a one-hour drama based on the iconic Archie comic book characters, has landed at Fox. Warner Brothers Studios is producing along with studio-based Berlanti Productions.
"Riverdale" offers a bold, subversive take on Archie, Betty, Veronica, and their friends, exploring the surrealistic twists of small-town life plus the darkness and weirdness bubbling beneath Riverdale's wholesome facade.
Set in the present in the small fictional town of Riverdale, New York, the show will focus on the eternal love triangle of Archie Andrews, girl-next-door Betty Cooper, and rich socialite Veronica Lodge and will include the entire cast of characters from the comic books—including Archie's rival, Reggie Mantle, and his slacker best friend, Jughead Jones. Popular gay character Kevin Keller will also play a pivotal role. In addition to the core cast, "Riverdale" will introduce other characters from Archie Comics' expansive library, including Josie and the Pussycats.
The show will be produced by Greg Berlanti's Berlanti Productions and written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
Bertlanti's track record as a producer includes a number of small-town teen dramas, such as the acclaimed "Jack & Bobby" and "Dawson's Creek," and superhero fare pulled from the four-color pages of legendary comic books like Arrow and The Flash. Aguirre-Sacasa, in addition to being the Chief Creative Officer at Archie Comics, also writes two of the publisher's best-selling titles – the horror series Afterlife with Archie and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. He spent three years as a writer on "Glee" and penned the remake of teen-angst classic Carrie and the cult horror classic The Town that Dreaded Sundown as well as the Broadway-bound musical adaptation of American Psycho.
"This is a historic moment for Archie Comics, and we couldn't be happier to partner with Fox, Warner Bros., and Greg Berlanti to bring our characters to television," said Archie Comics Publisher/Co-CEO Jon Goldwater. "Greg and Roberto are experts when it comes to making great, compelling television and bringing beloved comic book creations to life on the screen. They're the perfect team to welcome viewers to 'Riverdale.'"
"This is something we've been working on for a while now, figuring out the best way to bring these characters to life for what will be, essentially, the first time," Aguirre-Sacasa said. "The entire team working on 'Riverdale' is as passionate about Archie as Jon and I are, so it feels like the stars have finally aligned for Archie and the rest of the gang."
We'll be keeping an eye on this one; here's hoping some of Afterlife's genre flavor carries over into the series.

Scream Factory Reviving Lyle Alzado and His Jackhammer for a Destroyer Blu-ray
Destroyer is an oddity among slashers in that I know a lot of people who have never watched it but have seen the memorable VHS artwork of massively jacked-up NFL star Lyle Alzado hoisting a jackhammer like a machine gun. Never before on DVD, the 1988 prison-slasher flick Destroyer will bypass that format and go directly to Blu-ray thanks to Scream Factory.
Eighteen months after mass murderer Ivan Moser's electric chair execution led to a prison riot that shut down the facility, filmmakers converge on the now abandoned jail to film a women-in-prison exploitation flick, only to find out the brutal killer is more charged than ever and ready to deal death by a variety of horrific means, including jackhammer impalement.
The late Lyle Alzado plays the undead killer with shades of Shocker and The Horror Show. Eighties scream queen Deborah Foreman (April Fool's Day, Waxworks) and Anthony "Psycho" Perkins co-star in this gore-soaked slasher from the Eighties.
In a strange twist, Destroyer will not be flying solo onto Blu in the summer of 2015; it will be paired with Scarecrows, a previously announced Scream Factory title also from 1988. No further details at this time.
Scream Factory promises more surprises before the month of "Shocktober" is up. Stay tuned.
***fingers crossed*** The Vindicator ***fingers crossed***

New Mummy Details Unwrapped
Some supposed details have surfaced regarding Universal's upcoming reboot of The Mummy, which is being directed by Alex Kurtzman. According to Superhero Movie News the film's opening goes a little something like this…
The story follows Navy Seal Tyler Colt and his mission in the Iraqi desert to find a group of terrorists hiding out in a bunker. To his and his team's surprise, the terrorists within the bunker turn out be nothing more than some grave robbers who have all magically died. Upon entering the bunker, Tyler and his team also succumb to some mystical forces out of their control. They soon realize the bunker they have infiltrated is actually a centuries-old tomb. Mayhem erupts as all the Navy Seal members start turning on one another and are captivated by the forces within the tomb. Tyler is the only one to make it all the way deep within the tomb alive to find a black iron sarcophagus. It's marked with Egyptian symbols like the Ankh and Eye of Horus. Here Tyler is entranced by the forces to open it up and release what is inside. But after placing his hand onto the sarcophagus, he is immediately stabbed in the palm with a star-shaped symbol. From then on his mind is cursed with visions of Ashurbanipal, King of Assyria… The Mummy.
The site goes on to report that other characters in the movie include archeologist Jenny Halsey, shady billionaire Lorenzo Montanari, and Malik leader of the Temple Brothers.
No word on whether or not any of this is true… but there you have it.
The Mummy reboot hits June 24, 2016.

Maybe This Exists Clip Should Get Inside
I've said it a 1,000 times. No good can ever come from poking around the woods. No one ever listens though, and I thank the video gods for that because there's nothing finer, and sometimes funnier, than watching the repercussions dealt to those who stick their noses where they don't belong. Take this clip from Exists (review) for example.
Exists will be arriving on various VOD platforms and in limited theaters on October 24th.
In Bigfoot's bold return to the big screen, five friends on a camping weekend in the remote woods of East Texas struggle to survive against a legendary predator that is stronger, smarter, and more terrifying than anything they would have ever believed exists.
The film stars Chris Osborn, Dora Madison Burge, Roger Edwards, Samuel Davis, Denise Williamson, and Brian Steele and is produced by Jane Fleming, Mark Ordesky, Robin Cowie, and J. Andrew Jenkins. Exists, written by Jamie Nash, is executive produced by George Waud, D. Todd Shepherd, Gregg Hale, and Reed Frerichs, and the Sasquatch creature was designed by Spectral Motion.
For five friends, it was a chance for a summer getaway— a weekend of camping in the Texas Big Thicket. But visions of a carefree vacation are shattered with an accident on a dark and desolate country road. In the wake of the accident, a bloodcurdling force of nature is unleashed—something not exactly human, but not completely animal— an urban legend come to terrifying life…and seeking murderous revenge.

Ouija (2014)
Starring Olivia Cooke, Ana Coto, Daren Kagasoff, Bianca A. Santos, Douglas Smith, Shelley Hennig
Directed by Stiles White
Distributed by Universal
Utter the words "horror" and "PG-13" in the same sentence around certain genre fans, and you'll likely witness a level of teeth-gnashing and unbridled rage that'll leave you either shuddering with fear or shaking your head in disbelief.
To be honest, this reviewer has never had much of an issue with lighter horror fare so long as its intent to scare is genuine. I'm thinking of movies like The Ring, Insidious, The Others, or 1408 – films which didn't need to trade in extreme violence, bloodshed, nudity, or profanity to effectively elicit a series of genuine chills from their audiences. So long as a scary movie attempts to, y'know, actually be scary, I couldn't care less what its rating winds up being.
Of course, there are also movies bearing that lower rating which have absolutely nothing going for them in terms of storytelling or craft – movies which shoot for a PG-13 and a more lucrative box office take without any regard to what should be their intended fanbase. Make a bad film, then remove all of the more exploitative elements that can at least make a bad film fun, and then what are you left with?
…a movie that would look a hell of a lot like Ouija, I should imagine.
Poised to take the top spot at the box office this weekend in the absence of any other Halloween-friendly horror flicks (oh, Saw and Paranormal Activity – why have you forsaken fans this season?*), Ouija is a solid ninety minutes of "Who gives a shit?!" – a movie so bereft of an interesting plot or relatable characters that this writer CHALLENGES any masochistic viewers out there willing to take this flick in to ignore their watches for what feels like an interminable running time.
Ouija stars Olivia Cooke (so great as Emma in "Bates Motel") as Laine, our would-be Final Girl who opens the film having just lost her best friend Debbie (Hennig) to suicide. While attempting to move on from this tragedy, Laine refuses to let Debbie go without saying goodbye – enlisting fellow friends to take a spin with the very Ouija board Debbie had mentioned using the night of her death in order to contact her one last time so that everyone can say their proper farewells. Said friends (I don't remember their names and neither will you) gather 'round a table, move the Ouija's planchette about the board a bit, and wind up awakening an entity which proceeds to haunt their every move before taking them out in the lamest possible ways, all while Laine attempts to figure out the nature of the board's evil and how to possibly stop it before it claims her own life.
Apologies if that paragraph made the movie seem even remotely interesting. While Cooke does her damnedest to make for an engaging lead (and indeed, the entire cast is perfectly solid – if saddled with terrible writing), the movie never manages to take flight. By minute forty of this ninety-minute flick, we've barely gotten past our heroes' first communal whack at the Ouija board. The following quarter-hour has our mostly yet unseen villain terrorizing the leads by taunting them with the phrase "Hi Friend"- its signature greeting. I'm entirely serious – a decent chunk of the damn movie has each character, one by one, being assaulted with "Hi Friend" (written with chalk, in the condensation of a car window, carved into a desktop, yadda yadda…).
Things eventually kinda-sorta kick into gear when Lin "Exposition" Shaye pops in to grab a paycheck and explain the film's backstory in one big, lazy info-dump – sending Laine and her remaining Scoobies into harm's way in order to battle and destroy the film's Big Bad, leading to a twist ending that's as head-slappingly lame as it is incredibly obvious.
It's not all bad, though. As mentioned, Cooke tries her best to overcome the material, and the film is handsomely shot. And… well… okay, I guess it's mostly all bad. But more so than bad – the film is just damned dull. I'd forgive it if there was any attempt made to entertain its audience, but yikes – every choice made is safe, every scare telegraphed, every plot point hammered over the audience's head. If I told you that the writers responsible for this flick also inflicted upon us the utter borefests Boogeyman and The Possession, would you be at all surprised? Would you be even less surprised to find the Platinum Dunes fellas listed among Ouija's producers?
Again – the film isn't bad because it's PG-13. It's not even bad because it's based on a friggin' Hasbro board game. It's bad because it's poorly written, lazily directed, and features not one moment that rises above the level of "entirely uninvolving." I weep for all of the kids out there who are growing up with films like Ouija haunting the multiplexes. At least there are plenty of great films awaiting them on disc and various streaming services. It's to those youngsters, and to you readers, that I'm obligated to say – skip Ouija. Skip it. It deserves neither your precious time nor your hard-earned money. If you want to celebrate the upcoming holiday with an appropriate movie, find one that bothers to give a damn and watch it instead.
Board game? More like Bored Game.
*Yes, yes – I know. The original Saw is getting widely re-released back into theatres next weekend. I just miss seeing new installments of venerable horror franchises during the Halloween season.

Hollows Grove (2014)
Starring Mykelti Williamson, Lance Henriksen, Matthew Carey
Directed by Craig Efros
I'm a skeptic to the core and a horror aficionado through and through, so when such a boastful claim as "the most frightening film you'll see all year" is made by the creators of Hollows Grove, I've GOT to jump in with both feet and see if a statement is verified and substantiated. I know that every person's fear response is different and what will make one person wet their Underoos might not even raise a hair on the back of another's neck. All that I could hope to ask for with each and every passing film that likes to make these allegations is a nice change of scenery and not another one of those "haunted asylum/orphanage films"… oh, crap.
Looking at the movie from the outside, you'd get the inclination that this is going to be another run-of-the-mill found footage display that attempts to freak the viewer out with loud bangs, flash scares, and an annoying cast that ABSOLUTELY REFUSES to drop a camera in order to save themselves, regardless of the peril they're facing at the time. If you think for one moment that Hollows Grove opted to go that route and follow the blueprint of so many haunted institution films set out before it, then I'm terribly sorry to say that you've nailed it directly on the head. Allow me to dissect this carbon copy that fails to deliver the goods on a number of tiers.
The movie, directed by first-timer (outside of one short) Craig Efros, gives us a look into the Hollows Grove orphanage, which is supposedly one of the most haunted buildings in the U.S. and will be the subject of the latest episode of the Spirit Paranormal Investigation Team (S.P.I.T.- no, I'm not kidding) and their reality TV ghost hunting show.
Harold Maxwell (Matthew Carey) tags along with his friends on the team as they ready themselves to patrol the halls of the abandoned structure to see if they can collect evidence of any residual hauntings. The footage used was supposedly from Maxwell's camera, and at times you get the feeling that the whole ghost hunting prospect is a cash-cow for the team with no real desire to take this stuff seriously. The movie takes a bit of time to get started, and we're treated to a massive miscast in the film's start as movie and TV veteran Mykelti Williamson (Forrest Gump, "24") plays FBI Agent Jones, who is in charge of the case we're about to witness. I had no idea that the feds would jump into a case regarding a missing ghost hunting crew, considering everything else they've got to look after; in any event, he is only used for about two minutes of actual screen time, so if you love the former Benjamin Buford Blue (Bubba), then you'll be sorely disappointed.
As we're on the "why was he even in the movie?" train, another icon is led to storyline sacrifice, and that is Lance Henriksen himself, playing Bill, who works on the show as a props director. His time on camera is amusing but FAR too short.
Also, one of the more irritating performances that I've personally seen on film in a while belongs to Matt Doherty in his role of show star Tim. His actions are the stuff of someone you'd like to pound into the ground – take the normal performance of Paul Giamatti, give him about 12-15 cups of high-octane coffee, raise his vocal levels a few octaves, and voila! Instant vexation towards any movie-watching experience.
All right – on to the visuals! We're used to the routine shaky-cam vista that only a found footage film can offer, and while this is no different, there are at least a few breaks with some stationary cams every now and then, giving your flip-flopped innards a chance to settle. Night-vision also has its time in the sun (or the dark) when the going gets hectic for our crew of spook-spotters, and outside of a couple of certifiable "oh shit!" moments, I honestly cannot say that there is a difference between the Grove and movies like Session 9, Grave Encounters, or the myriad of spectrally haunted establishment films that have come before it.
Was I let down regarding the final product? Yes. Was I mildly amused at the idea of how full of crap the crew knew they were about their show and its production? Yes. Could I honestly recommend this to someone and make a statement that this movie will be the scariest thing they've seen all year? Don't hold your breath. When it comes to investigating these halls, leave the doors locked and move along, please – this building was condemned for a reason, and that reason is justified.

Australia's Monster Fest 2014 Unveils More Juicy Details
We told you last month about the opening film, Charlie's Farm, that will be kicking off Melbourne-based horror festival Monster Fest this year. Now we have a whole plethora of new info that cements the event as something that horror fans really won't want to miss.
Between November 20 and 30, 2014, Cinema Nova in Carlton and Yah Yah's Bar in Collingwood will play host to this year's selection of blood-soaked cinematic depravity and something that sounds really, really special: the first ever 'Monster Fest Academy of Horror & Mayhem'!
This will see four full days dedicated to workshops and master-classes designed to delight and educate horror fans and budding genre filmmakers. A smorgasbord of cult genre figures will be on hand to lead activities, including Twisted Twins Jen and Sylvia Soska, The Human Centipede: First Sequence star Ashley C. Williams, Astron-6's Conor Sweeney and Matthew Kennedy, and legendary Troma pioneer Lloyd Kaufman, who will be delivering his internationally renowned 'Make Your Own Damn Movie' master-class.
These are just a few names from a stunning line-up of talent for the 'Monster Fest Academy of Horror & Mayhem', with the full details due to be revealed on Wednesday, November 29, at the official Monster Fest media launch at Cherry Bar, Melbourne. The master-classes themselves, alongside other events and activities, will take place at the fest's lounge and event space – dubbed 'The Monster's Lair' – situated upstairs at Yah Yah's Bar, 99 Smith Street, Collingwood. Here, the drinks will flow and food can be had amidst a magical Dario Argento-inspired internal decor peppered with luxurious bean bags.
Films screening this year that have been announced so far include the aforementioned opener Charlie's Farm, festival closer ABCs of Death 2, Eli Roth's The Green Inferno, modern cult favourite WolfCop, the hysterically awesome Dead Snow 2, the Rose Leslie-starring Honeymoon, the World Premiere of Addison Heath's Under a Kaleidoscope, and The Plague – a film by Melbournian duo Nick Kozakis and Kosta Ouzas.
But hell, that's not all: Other news revealed by the fest includes the fact that they have entered an official partnership with Howling Wolves Wines of Margaret River, Western Australia. Whilst last year saw them partner up as official alcohol sponsor, for 2014 they've gone the whole hog (or should that be the whole bottle?) and are now a full naming partner, seeing this year's festival now dubbed the 'Howling Wolves Monster Fest'. I'll drink to that!
Of the partnership, festival director Neil Foley said, "Having Howling Wolves come on board as our naming rights partner is a incredible development; it means we can continue growing to become the biggest, boldest, and nastiest film festival in the land – The Howling Wolves are riding the Monster wave; it's a great day for Aussie horror!"
Limited tickets for the master-classes and special events at The Monster's Lair (Yah Yah's Bar) can be had via the Monster Fest ticket page on Pozible, with session tickets for each of the film screenings to be available soon from the Cinema Nova box office and website.
You can also follow Monster Fest on Facebook for the latest news alongside the chance to win prizes in their online competitions.

Warner Bros/New Line Push The Conjuring 2 to 2016; Untitled Horror Takes its Place
Put on your dancin' shoes – it's time for some release date shuffling! Originally slated for October 23, 2015, The Conjuring 2, which is still in very early stages, has been moved to 2016 by Warner Bros. and replaced by a so far unnamed horror film from New Line's existing stable.
When reporting the move, Deadline speculated that the prime Halloween season time slot vacated by the still director-less sequel to James Wan's mega hit The Conjuring could be filled by Phil Claydon's Crawlspace, which stars "Bates Motel's" Michael Vartan as a widower who moves into a seemingly perfect new home with his daughter and new wife, or possibly Superstition, the Blumhouse-360 Film production directed by first-time helmers Chris Lofing and Travis Cluff, which revolves around a family that moves into a house that was once the site of a witch's execution.
Either way, they'll have some competition from the other film already announced for that date, Jem and the Holograms, followed the next week by Paramount's Scouts vs. Zombies, another recent shufflee.
More soon!

Frank Grillo Waits Beyond Skyline
We're still not sure just who was clamoring for a sequel to Skyline, but it's definitely heading in the right direction in terms of casting news. Latino Review is reporting that The Purge: Anarchy's Frank Grillo will star in the next chapter of the interstellar flick, which is known now as Beyond Skyline.
Liam O'Donnell, who worked on some effects no one could see due to the apparent lack of a lighting rig in Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem and others that people could see in Iron Man 2, is directing. He co-wrote the screenplay with Joshua Cordes. The duo wrote the first film, too.
Latino is also reporting that supposedly the sequel's storyline takes place at the same time the first one did.

Ghostface Missing in MTV Series
Well now. This is kind of shocking. During an interview with GhostFace.co.UK, RJ Torbert, the man who owns the rights to the look of Ghostface, the titular killer from Wes Craven's Scream franchise, dropped a pretty big bombshell on fans looking forward to the upcoming MTV series based on Craven's flicks.
"To answer your question regarding the "Scream" TV series…
Please note that I had been in communication with TWC regarding this, and they have informed me that as of now and during the initial launch, Ghost Face is NOT involved in the new format. They also indicated that because of this direction, it does not mean that Ghost Face will not be involved at a later date. So, there is still a question, to the question.
However, as of now, there is no involvement."
Here's some clarification by Torbert in regards to the rights of the look of the character:
"We believe 'Scream' is Ghost Face, and Ghost Face is Scream. However, while Ghost Face is owned by Fun World, the Scream motion picture franchise is owned by The Weinstein Company, and it is their option to film a movie or TV show without Ghost Face. Regardless, we wish them the best of luck, and I'm sure 'Scream' fans will check out the series. Who knows what will happen in the future regarding the series and Ghost Face? Never say never."
The MTV series stars Willa Fitzgerald, Taylor-Klaus, Bobby Campo (The Final Destination), Connor Weil (Sharknado), and Joel Gretsch ("Witches of East End," "V," "The 4400″).

Jessabelle Stills Come by the 4-Pack
Four new stills have arrived for Jessabelle, the latest film from Saw VI and Saw 3D director Kevin Greutert, and they are ready to do that voodoo that they do. Dig 'em!
Look for the film in both theaters and VOD outlets on November 7th! Mark your calendars!
Jessabelle stars Sarah Snook, Mark Webber, David Andrews, Joelle Carter, Ana de la Reguera, Larisa Oleynik, Chris Ellis, Fran Bennett, and Amber Stevens.

From the mastermind producer of Paranormal Activity and Insidious comes the ghostly tale of Jessabelle. Returning to her childhood home in Louisiana to recuperate from a horrific car accident, Jessabelle (Sarah Snook of Sleeping Beauty) comes face to face with a long-tormented spirit that has been seeking her return — and has no intention of letting her escape.

Australian Zombie Wrestling Flick From Parts Unknown: Fight Like a Girl Finally Ready to Main Event
We first reported on the Australian zombie wrestling action horror flick From Parts Unknown: Fight Like a Girl way back in 2008. Lots of movies have long, arduous treks from inception to the screen, but this is ridiculous!
From Parts Unknown: Fight Like a Girl is finally, at long last, ready to make its world premiere at The Thornbury Theatre in Australia early next year. I presume the rest of us will get our chances to see this long gestating film afterwards.
The Strongman Pictures production stars UK-based singer Jenna Dwyer as Charlie along with Elke Osadnik, Emma-Louise Wilson (ABC's "Utopia"), and champion kickboxer Sarah Howett, a.k.a. Viper from Australian TV's "Gladiators."
To celebrate the press release announcing the film finally coming into fruition, award-winning artist Tom Hodge was commissioned to design some new artwork for this tale of a badass female pro wrestler and her smackdown with the undead.
I'll let the press release from director Daniel Armstrong provide the rest of the details:
From Parts Unknown: Fight Like a Girl is your quintessential Australia-zombie-wrestling-video game movie. It tells the story of Charlie. After watching her Daddy die in the ring, she sets out to become a wrestler in his memory. The only things stopping her are a disapproving boyfriend, a demanding day job, and a soul-crushing boss – whose corporate shenanigans threaten to unleash hordes of zombies upon the earth! Charlie has no choice but to open up a can of whoop-ass and take these murderous jabronis for a stroll down smackdown boulevard!
'What can you say? From Parts Unknown has been in production for nearly a decade now. We've overcome investors disappearing, a crazed department head running up excessive costs, and the loss of all our sound files in addition to, of course, the grueling 42-day shoot. It's been a long journey, and we're very excited about the fact that not only are people finally about to see the film, but we have amazing poster art that so perfectly reflects the tone of the film.' – Director, Daniel Armstrong
From Parts Unknown: Fight Light a Girl World Premiere details:
DATE: Saturday, January 10, 2015
TIME: 6.00 pm – 'till late
VENUE: The Thornbury Theatre, 859 High Street, Thornbury, VIC 3071; (+613) 9484 9831
Tickets can ONLY be purchased from The Thornbury Theatre website. No tickets will be sold at the event. For more info visit From Parts Unknown: Fight Light a Girl on Facebook.

Rob Riggle Gets Infected by Dead Rising: Watchtower
As we recently learned, Capcom's hit video game series Dead Rising is being adapted into a feature film courtesy of Crackle, and another familiar face has just joined the growing cast. Read on for the latest!
Multi Channel News reports today that comic actor Rob Riggle (pictured; 22 Jump Street, Let's Be Cops) has been brought on board the adaptation alongside fellow new recruits Harley Morenstein ("Epic Meal Time"), Keegan Connor Tracey ("Bates Motel," "Once Upon A Time"), and Aleks Paunovic (This Means War).
The cast also includes Jesse Metcalfe ("Desperate Housewives," "Dallas"), Meghan Ory ("Once Upon a Time"), Virginia Madsen (Candyman, Sideways), and Dennis Haysbert (Men, Women & Children).
Sony's Crackle will give the 90-minute feature, directed by Leprechaun: Origins' Zach Lipovsky, an exclusive digital release in the U.S. before the film receives a multi-platform release on SVOD, VOD, DVD, and TV.
The script was written by Tim Carter, who also produces alongside Tomas Harlan under their Contradiction Films banner (the same company that produced Mortal Kombat: Legacy). Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Transformers, G.I. Joe) is the executive producer.
As in the video game, Dead Rising: Watchtower is set during a zombie apocalypse. When a mandatory government vaccine fails, a group of survivors must evade infection while hunting down the root of the epidemic, which leads back to a government conspiracy.

Ryan Schneider of Floral Park, who guides the Friends Academy varsity girls' basketball team, was named Coach of the Year by Nassau County Section 8 basketball coaches. Here, he literally stands behind his team, which went 17-3 for the season and won the Long Island Class C Championship at St. Joseph's College by defeating Pierson of Suffolk County, 60 to 48.
Integrated Medical Foundation (IMF) has announced that it is joining with New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA), the Elmont Chamber of Commerce, and the Greater Long Island Running Club (GLIRC) to stage the 3rd annual Belmont Stakes Blue Ribbon Run for Prostate Cancer. The 5-kilometer run, open to runners and walkers of all ages and levels of ability, will be held on Sunday, June 1, at Belmont Park, with NYRA's Sam "Sam the Bugler" Grossman calling everyone to the post at 7:15 p.m.
The Third Annual Tom Hayden Our Lady of Victory (OLV) 3-on-3 Tournament, held on Saturday, March 15, was a huge success. Eighteen teams and an army of spectators filled the OLV School gym to pay tribute to the event's two honorees.
The first honoree, George Rettinger, spoke fondly about his years volunteering for the OLV Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) program and lovingly thanked his extended family, many of whom attended. He also spoke of how proud and honored he was to have volunteered alongside the event's other honoree, Joe Power, who passed away several years ago.
Our Lady of Victory CYO 6th Grade Basketball team came in first place in their division at the 41st Annual St. Vincent de Paul Basketball Tournament. Pictured: Asst. Coach Rich Nelson, Jake Nelson, Christopher Tall, Justin Jean-Francois, Jay Simunovich, Alex Lascala, Thomas Freely, Coach Bill Barry, Matthew Corteo, Kyle Ring, Patrick Driscoll, and Henry Eckert. Missing from the photo are Robert Del Giorno and Cole Buckley.
As a legal matter, Long Islanders can enjoy trout fishing year-round, but the harsh conditions of the past few months have not been friendly to recreational fishing, so there's probably some pent-up demand ready for the official opening of trout season state-wide on April 1.
According to a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service survey, in 2011, New York State was second in the nation in total spending on fishing-related items, and remains a clear leader in paid angler licenses, with nearly one million purchased.
When coach Peter Burgess first saw Tyler Regnier play lacrosse as a seventh grader, he knew he was watching a special player for Sewanhaka High School.
"Me and my coaches knew he was the type of kid that we can build a team around," said Burgess. "We said to ourselves 'When is he going to play varsity?'"
Regnier ended up making the varsity team as a freshman and hasn't looked back since, earning All-County honors last season as a junior defenseman.
Dressed in protective gear and armed with a set of wheels, 26 year-old Floral Park resident, Caity Tweedy, also known as "Dropkick Dolly" played on Team Black of the all-female Long Island Roller Rebels at Old Bethpage Skate Safe America on Saturday, March 8.
Versing Team Pink, the Roller Rebels split their team for the game. Pink racked up 225 points and Black gathered 187. At the end, both teams shook hands and joined as one to celebrate yet another game together.
"I'd compare this sport to football and NASCAR on skates," explained Tweedy who has participated for three seasons with the Roller Rebels.
The fifth-grade girls from St. Hedwig's won the 2014 CYO A Nassau/Suffolk Diocesan championship. The girls beat Christ the King (CTK) of Commack, with a score of 17-15, on the opponents' home court. The win marked the third time St. Hedwig's had beaten CTK this season and improved their three-year CYO record to an unimaginable 39-0. The championship game was a nail-biter right from the opening tap.
CTK led this defensive battle at halftime 9-7 and the second half was predictably close. With 30 seconds to play in the contest and the score knotted at 15, CTK had possession and was closing in for a final shot.
Every so often a team just needs to tip their cap to an opponent who performs outstanding. It was exactly that type of performance by Hewlett's Avery Feldman that ended Floral Park's tremendous season in the Nassau County semifinals at SUNY Old Westbury by the score of 82-47.
Feldman scored 30 points to lead the Bulldogs to the finals.
Sometimes taking a step back and returning to your comfort zone is the best decision you can make. Molloy's standout basketball player Kelly Guerriero claims that was precisely the case with her.
"It was just too crazy," said the Floral Park native in regards to her two-year tenure at Division-I Mount St. Mary's in Maryland. "I am a very family-oriented person, and being four hours away meant I barely came home. I came home for only two days for Christmas break," she added. It was at that time she made the choice to come back to Long Island and play for Division-II Molloy, virtually around the corner.

HOT TOPICS: Alcoholism Addiction AA Cocaine Heroin
Playmate Cassandra Lynn Hensley Found Dead
An overdose is suspected after police found Miss February 2006 floating in a friend's bathtub.
According to TMZ, former Playboy centerfold Cassandra Lynn Hensley was found dead inside a friend's Los Angeles home. She was 34. Paramedics were called after a friend found the centerfold floating in the bathtub but they were unable to revive her. Law enforcement on the scene were investigating Hensley's death as a potential overdose.
Born and raised in the Salt Lake valley of Utah, Hensley started modeling while studying to become an aesthetician and placed in the Top 20 in a Hawaiian Tropic contest. That led to a tryout for Playboy and subsequently becoming Miss February 2006, which she called "a dream come true."
After being a Playmate, Hensley bounced around from one modeling gig to another while making appearances on Lingerie Football, Last Comic Standing, and The Apprentice. She was active on Twitter and rather cryptically tweeted her horoscope just hours before she was reported dead. "Unspoken obligations prevent you from doing what you wish today, but your guilt may drive your inaction more than any real responsibilities," said the horoscope in part. "No matter what you do now, you might not feel completely fulfilled."
Police have so far ruled out foul play.

The Internet is a good place if you want to look at some beautiful design. There are thousands of websites that have managed to create something beautiful out of nothing. And then there are those sites that have managed to do the exact opposite.
With this in mind we thought that it was about time that we published an article with common mistakes as well as tips on the best ways to design a great website. However, before we get into any details do have to mention that web design and hosting go hand in hand. You simply will not be able to create a stabile website without supreme hosting so make sure that you only get the best web hosting services.
Common Mistakes
Overusing bandwidth
If you have partnered up with a solid web host you probably will not have any issues with the bandwidth but it still causes problems for some sites that have heavy graphics. Important to remember is that will not only have to think about your bandwidth – heavy graphics can be troubling for people with poor Internet connection.
Complex graphics
Avoid complex graphics, such as Flash. It may happen that your site will not get indexed by search engine spiders if you do and we can promise you that your visitors will not like the idea of having to download a plugin to be able to see your site.
Poor navigation
Remember that less is more on the web. If a website is too cluttered, with links and images, you can count on your visitors not knowing what to do and hence clicking out instead.
Tips on what to do
Create pages
One of the best ways to increase the authority of your website is in increasing the number of pages. More pages will get indexed by search engines and it will also increase the chances of inbound links. Remember though what we said above – keep it user-friendly and easily navigated.
Remember internal linking
When designing a website is, as you probably understand by now, not only important to design the site with the search engines in mind – the visitors are just as important. Link within your content so that your visitors easily can navigate back and forth.

A machine that prints organs is coming to market
THE great hope of transplant surgeons is that they will, one day, be able to order replacement body parts on demand. At the moment, a patient may wait months, sometimes years, for an organ from a suitable donor. During that time his condition may worsen. He may even die. The ability to make organs as they are needed would not only relieve suffering but also save lives. And that possibility may be closer with the arrival of the first commercial 3D bio-printer for manufacturing human tissue and organs.
The new machine, which costs around $200,000, has been developed by Organovo, a company in San Diego that specialises in regenerative medicine, and Invetech, an engineering and automation firm in Melbourne, Australia. One of Organovo's founders, Gabor Forgacs of the University of Missouri, developed the prototype on which the new 3D bio-printer is based. The first production models will soon be delivered to research groups which, like Dr Forgacs's, are studying ways to produce tissue and organs for repair and replacement. At present much of this work is done by hand or by adapting existing instruments and devices. …

A subwoofer is what makes movie explosions cooler, concerts more lifelike, and just adds overall oomph into any audio system. No audio setup should go without one. OSD Audio wants you to easily add that boom into your room, announcing two affordable freestanding subwoofers.
The 12-inch OSD PS12 can output 175 watts at under 1 percent THD (continuous operation at 1/8 rated power), and boasts a frequency response of 5Hz to 180Hz (-3dB ref.0dB). The 10-inch PS10 can do 125 watts, with a frequency response of 5Hz to 180Hz.
Both models come with a 180-degree phase switch, 40Hz to 180Hz variable crossover control, a signal sensing "power on" option, and front-firing ports. Also because the PS10 and PS12 have omnidirectional bass output, placement is extremely flexible.
The OSD PS12 is available now for $249.50, with the PS10 coming in at $199.50. Both prices include free shipping.
