Hello Monday...

Ghostface

Happy Monday! Ha ha ha ha!!! Since Halloween draws nigh I thought we would start our week with a very important question that's correct Minions "What's your favorite scary movie?" 

It also happens to be the signature line of Ghostface straight outta one of the most successful horror franchises ever, the Scream movies.

Today think of me as your own personal Ghostface. If you don't answer correctly you will have a terrible week.

Here are the three questions you must answer or, well your week is going to suck! 

1) Name the horror movie that featured the Bauhaus song Bela Lugosi's Dead 

2) Whose baby has his "father's eyes"

3) Name the sister Michael Myers kills in the opening of the original 1978 Halloween

Don't take too long to answer, additional penalties may apply....

Sunday Funday!

The Dynamic Duo
Michael Myers & Ghostface

Here we are at Sunday Funday Minions and as you all know by now I love Spooky Season! Thus I could not pass up the opportunity to post this seasonal bad ass image I saw on Twitter.

With a scant 85 more days until Halloween and just over a month until the season arrives, hey, the whole month of October is one big Halloween euphoria after all.

Together at last, it's none other than the face of Halloween Michael Myers and the face of Scream Ghostface!!!

Halloween & Scream are two of the most enduring horror franchises in Hollywood history as you know. "Yes" I have seen all the Scream movies. While I confess with the exception of Halloween III: Season of the Witch, the only Halloween films I've seen are the ones with Jamie Lee Curtis in them (with the exception of Halloween Resurrection.)

So enjoy your Sunday Funday with these two, I know I will...

A Bloody Nightmare

Final Girl, Final Word
Neve Campbell

While Neve Campbell will not be appearing in Scream 6, Sidney Prescott lives on. That's correct Minions Neve is bringing Sidney back in an ad for the Red Cross to encourage peeps to donate, what else? Blood!!!

It's brilliant I say! Also it pretty much gives Neve the last word on the Sidney Prescott legacy that we are fortunate enough to have had her be a part of.

 Dear makers of Scream 6, you really blew it by giving up the Ghostface on this one. It will be interesting to see how the upcoming installment of Scream fares without our Sidney.

I for one have zero interest.

Check out Neve's terrific PSA below, the final girl gets the final word.

Life Is But A "Scream"

I'll Be Back!
Ghostface

T.G.I.F! and all that stuff Minions. In case you haven't heard riding on the success of the current Scream movie, Scream 6 is shooting this summer and dropping in 2023!

Interestingly enough did you know Scream 2 turns 25 in 2023? Thus the sequel to the current reboot landing then seems like a coincidence...NOT!!!

Anyway suffice it to say Social Media is a buzz with all sorts of interesting concepts of what could happen when Ghostface next appears.

My personal favorite is since it was shown in the current Scream that Kirby Reed (Hayden Panettiere) from Scream 4 is still alive, fans are really pushing for her to comeback in the next one.

This idea is an intriguing one to say the least. 

What thoughts do you have on the upcoming Scream movie?

Fatherly Advice
Skeet Ulrich & Melissa Barrera 

Caught this behind the scenes photo of Skeet Ulrich and Melissa Barrera on the set of Scream having a Father/Daughter moment. Well sort of, Melissa plays Sam Carpenter who is the daughter of Skeet's psycho killer Billy Loomis from the original Scream.

Got it? Groovy! I assume at this point the bit of information contained above about the current Scream movie is not a spoiler, if it was my bad???

Anyway I love behind the scenes photos as they tell their own story and it's super duper fun to see the actors engaging with one another in between takes.

Hence Sunday Funday amusement for all, from me to you and the WWW to me. Do you follow? Of course you do...

Time to put on your best Sunday Ghostface!

Hump Day & Chill

Chillin' 
Ghostface

Hello Wednesday, something twisted this way comes! With the hotly anticipated Scream movie opening this Friday I thought today we would Hump Day & Chill Ghostface style. 

"Yes" Minions we are going to bend it like the current incarnation of Ghostface above, by kicking back and letting the bodies pile up!

Word on the street is that Scream is the best sequel to Scream since Scream. That's so Meta.

Honestly with that kind of buzz I can't wait to see what they do with this outing and who the new Ghostface is and why they wanna keep harassing the population of Woodsboro. Seriously haven't they been butchered enough?!

In fact I plan on being at the cinema this Friday with my booty firmly planted in a chair taking it all in and shouting it all out.

But for now I'm gonna go Hump Day & Chill with Ghostface, the uncertainty is real...

Boo!!!

Film Buff Friday: The Hills Have Eyes

                                  The hills are alive with the sound of...eyes, yikes!

The Hills Have Eyes [Blu-ray] (September 27th)

THE LUCKY ONES DIED FIRST

Horror master Wes Craven achieved critical and commercial success with the likes of Scream and A Nightmare on Elm Street - but for many genre fans, the director's seminal 1977 effort The Hills Have Eyes remains his masterpiece.

Taking a detour whilst on route to Los Angeles, the Carter family run into trouble when their camper van breaks down in the middle of the desert. Stranded, the family find themselves at the mercy of a group of monstrous cannibals lurking in the surrounding hills. With their lives under threat, the Carters are forced to fight back by any means necessary. 

As grueling a viewing experience today as it was upon initial release, The Hills Have Eyes stands alongside the likes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Night of the Living Dead as one of the defining moments in American horror cinema.

Mowed Over: Scream Queens

I Will Survive!
Nick Jonas & Ariana Grande 

In tribute to Deaf Taylor Swift's passing in the series premiere of Scream Queens, first off let me say I am mowed over by it! Yes, death by lawnmower blows, but it was one of the highlights from the two hour debut of mayhem, murder and things that are politically incorrect.

Hey I loved the show and will be watching as the rest of the evil unfolds.

Want a few updates tied to the premiere? Well as we saw Nick Jonas who plays the token gay, Boone was offed by that gender neutral Devil killer. But in a twist of fate we saw at the end he was indeed alive and will live to pop a boner again with Chad (Glen Powell) - Since he has clearly sold his soul to the Devil in disguise, perhaps there is a more insidious agenda going on.

The yummy Nick has this to say about it “I can tell you that he is a part of the team of people involved in this master revenge plan, His history with it goes very, very deep.” 

That's Hot!

Bad news for those of you, like me, thought Ariana Grande was going to be like Drew Barrymore was in Scream and have a really great memorable (not to mention hilarious) death scene and be done. 

According to co-creator Ryan Murphy: “She comes back I believe in episode 6 and maybe more. She’s recurring definitely. Everyone thinks she’s gone but she’s not gone. We’re just not sure how exactly she’s returning." Really?! “I wouldn’t say ghost. Nothing you think is happening is happening on the show. You think some people are dead — they’re not dead.”

Well OK, I for one am not a fan of this, but hey, you never know, it MIGHT work. 

PS, Jamie Lee Curtis, of course kills in this! Hey at this point in the show, you never know this could end up being a literal statement...

One, Two, He's Coming For You...Wes Craven

The Man of Your Nightmares
Wes Craven

"The first monster you have to scare the audience with is yourself" - Wes Craven

One of my favorite filmmakers, Wes Craven has passed away. He directed Meryl Streep in her Oscar Nominated role in Music of the Heart and one of my favorite popcorn thrillers Red Eye with Rachel McAdams and Cillian Murphy.

However he will always be known for his works of horror, most notably the high profile Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream films. 

I remember when both came out. Each was heralded as contributing something unique to the horror genre.

Scream with it's unique blend of wit and scares revived horror movies at a time when the genre was pretty much dead.

As a huge horror fan I thought I had seen it all, but nothing could have prepared me for the opening scene of Drew Barrymore being stalked and ultimately murdered. It was truly frightening on every level you could imagine, her dying merely feet away from her parents gasping for air and trying to get their attention will stay with me forever!

A Nightmare on Elm Street was notorious for making people afraid to dream. It truly was the stuff sweet dreams aren't made of.

Ghostface - Lift

Does This Mask Make Me Look Scary?

Tonight at 10pm MTV is premiering it's TV series based on the movie Scream.

Well the producers decided the Ghostface need some renovating and gave his mask a scary new face lift. There is even a back story to the killers new look.

Personally I love horror and the movie Scream and will watch the premiere episode out of curiosity to see what they brewed up, whether I tune in past that remains to be seen.

As the old adage goes: Curiosity Killed the Cat...

Author M.E. Franco Brings It For Halloween!!!

Tombstone Hugger, M.E. Franco

Yes, it's that time of the year again Halloween! Every year here on Entertain Me I have fellow horror lover and author M.E. Franco stop by for some tricks, treats, but most of all fun!
M.E. is the author of the popular supernatural thriller Dion trilogy, Where Will You Run, Where Will You Hide & Where Will You Turn.
I asked her 10 Questions in the spirit of the season, read how she answered...if you dare!

MS: If you were a freak what kind of freak would you be?
ME: From a very young age, I've had this fascination with sword swallowers. It freaks me out and captivates me at the same time. I want to watch, but I don't want to watch, but I have to watch... I'm not the only one, everyone holds their breath when the sword swallower comes out. It's truly scary, but you can't look away. That's what I'd choose to be: the sword swallower.

MS: What did you think of the series finale of True Blood?
ME: Lame comes to mind, but I'll go with a bad vampire pun and say that it sucked, but not in a good way. I was disappointed.

Look, It's Reinn

MS: Which character in your supernatural thriller Dion series of books do you have a crush on?
ME: I really wanted to focus a lot on Raith when I started, but when I wrote the second book, Reinn stole my heart. (Don't tell Raith).

MS: If birds of a feather flock together, what do bats do?
ME: Hang out. (I'm full of bad puns today)

Adam Levine: I Win Satan!

MS: Satan and Adam Levine both want your soul, who do you give it to?
ME: Have to go with Adam, he has better tattoos Although I hear Satan is quite the singer.

Michael Myers Experiences Frequent Neck Pain

MS: Michael Myers asks you on a date with a nod and a blank stare, what is your answer?
ME: "I don't remind you of your sister or a babysitter, do I?"

Hey Drew, What's Your Favorite Scary Movie?

MS: Name one of your favorite death scenes in a horror movie.

ME: I thought Drew Barrymore's death in Scream was masterful. That whole scene with her was truly creepy.

MS: What type of wine do you enjoy with your Fava Beans?
ME: I think a nice, old vine zin would be a fabulous pairing, although I hear they also go well with chianti.

C'mon M.E. Show Me Those Fangs

MS: You have been turned into a vampire, what is the first thing that you would do?
ME: Bite Gerard Butler. Wait...that sounds creepy, but I don't think if violates the restraining order.

MS: Driving down a deserted country road you spot Morgan Le Fay hitchhiking, do you give her a ride?
ME: Absolutely I would! It's always good to have a powerful sorceress who owes me a favor. Plus, she could probably afford the Cheetos and Diet Dr. Pepper for the trip.

The Horror: Clea Cutthroat

Bloody Clea: Say It 3 Times and See What
Happens

For Berlin performance artist and "Entertain Me" favorite, Clea Cutthroat everyday is some version of Halloween...is it any surprise it is her favorite Holiday?

Clea is currently on tour with the band Bonaparte, I decided to get my inner "Ghost Face" on and try to make her "Scream"...I don't think I did a very effective job of it, hey this was my first try at terrorizing someone cut me some slack!

Paging Ms. Cutthroat, you have a call....

MS: Hello, who is this?

CC: Michael, put down the margarita, it’s me…Clea! Naturally.

MS: Clea Cutthroat the performance artist who lives in Berlin?

CC: The one & only!

MS: What are you doing right now?

CC: I’m drinking margarita’s out of my Gatorade squeeze bottle as I sew hot pink sequins on spandex…one by one…a task that’s tedious enough to drive anyone insane (hence the margarita).

MS:Tell me your favorite scary movie.

CC: "The Shining"! Scared the shit out of my when I was 9…and still gives me the creeps every time blood gushes down the hallway after me, or I run into strange twin children as I’m grocery shopping.

MS: Mine is the original “Halloween”.

CC: Can’t go wrong with some Jamie Lee Curtis! Wasn’t there one with Busta Rhymes?

MS: Oh, that's a good one.

CC: I knew you would like the Busta version as well 

MS: What are you going to be this Halloween?

Covered In Blood Again? With Bonaparte

CC: I’m actually performing in Graz, Austria this Halloween as its right in the middle of my tour with Bonaparte. So, in that case, I’ll be dead, a voodoo queen, a showgirl, a dominatrix, an aerobics instructor….well, you could say that everyday is a bit like Halloween 

BUT , if I get a chance to go to a proper Halloween party after the show…I’m going as the Queen herself…Elvira!

…and you, Michael? What’s up your sleeve this year? 

MS: Me? I'm not telling you anything.

CC: Hmph. I’ll get it out of you after your third margarita 

MS: Everyday is pretty much like Halloween for you, isn't it?

CC: Yes. I am damn lucky! BUT the only down side would be that living in Europe you don’t get the same excitement for Halloween. It’s slowly catching on…but, nothing as compared to NYC. One year I’ll have to make it back to The States for some proper celebrations.

MS: Do you take your make-up off at night or sleep in it?

CC: I could sleep in it, but then I would need a medicine cabinet full of Clearasil, and I could go as a lump of acne for Halloween! Lol! No, no…I take it all off! 

MS: Answer this next question or Bonaparte, every single one of them dies.

CC: Maybe it’s the margarita in my squeeze bottle, but this doesn’t make any sense…NEXT QUESTION!

MS: How much wood could a woodchuck, chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

CC: I plead the 5th.

MS: My patience is being tried Ms. Cutthroat.

CC: How do you think I feel after the woodchuck question?

MS: Oh, all right, how about this one? If you really did Cutthroat's how many throat's would you cut?

CC: Only as many as it would take till I could make a new ball gown 

MS: Wrong answer, Happy Halloween Clea!
