Stanley Visits the Severin Cellar.

Here's a fantastic video I just want to make sure you've all seen. Batshit director Richard Stanley visited the Severin cellar and picked out some of his favourite films.

You should check out his choices if you haven't seen them because they truly are a wonderful cross section of world cinema.

Short of the Week #81: Withorwithout

This music video for the band Parcels is a bit old, but I dig the High Tension/You're Next vibe. Plus it's got Milla and terrific direction from Benjamin Howdeshell. Enjoy!

Here's a spooky little ditty courtesy of the YT channel Animated Horror Flicks



I have to admire this employee's commitment, I'd have peaced out the second I saw that dude. I was always more of a minimum wage, minimum effort kind of guy.
