Remember when rap was fun? I sure do. I remember when I couldn't get enough of groups like Run DMC, Digital Underground, DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, and of course... The Fat Boys. Sadly, those days seem to be long gone and have been replaced with talentless bling braggarts who are neither worthy of your attention or your hard earned cashola. But don't fret, for we can always listen to all the tunes from the golden era of rap. I'm sure a lot of you remember when The Fat Boys made the jump to film with their comedy "Disorderlies"... if you don't, I suggest you go out and find a copy as soon as possible to remedy such a grievous oversight on your part. What many of you may not know is that they actually put out a music video for their hit tune, "Are You Ready For Freddy?".
Not too long ago, I conducted a poll about the ultimate Freddy rap, and while "A Nightmare on My Street" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince was the clear winner, The Fat Boys were the only ones to have their video for "Are You Ready For Freddy?" actually released. See, JJ&TFP did make a video for "A Nightmare on My Street", but New Line Cinema apparently sued them and it still hasn't seen the light of day. It's become a legend of sorts amongst fans of the duo, and some people swore they saw it air once or twice way back when. I really hope that somebody does manage to track down a copy of it if the video did in fact air for a few days before being pulled, because I know I speak for Elm Street and JJ&TFP fans worldwide when I say I'd kill to see it.
That said, the one thing they surely didn't have in the video was the REAL Freddy Krueger played by Robert Englund. But the Fat Boys did, as it was released in conjunction with "A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master" (which is my favorite film in the series in case I haven't mentioned it a thousand times already). It's a great video in which the Fat Boys were named in the will of their "Uncle Fredrick" and are required to spend a night in his creepy house if they want to inherit it. Of course, they think it'll be a piece o' cake, but Freddy has plans to scare them outta the house with his blades and dope rhymes. If you've ever wanted to see Freddy rap or watch The Human Beat Box eating a powdered donut while wearing the infamous striped sweater, kick back and enjoy the video. As a bonus, I've included a behind-the-scenes CNN interview with the group from back in 1988 in which it's mentioned that they were working on a horror-comedy movie called "Fat Wolf" at the time. Fat Wolf. FAT WOLF!!! Man, do I ever wish they actually finished the project, because I'm sure it would have been an amazing flick which would have no problem rivaling "Teen Wolf". Well, at least "Teen Wolf Too". Anywho, here's the video for all you fans of Freddy and the Fat Boys to enjoy!
I'd been meaning to check out the Arkham Horror board game for a while, so I finally picked up a copy a few weeks ago and tested it out with some friends. At $60, it was one of those things I'd been reluctant to purchase without having played or seen demoed somewhere, but after reading enough positive reviews on Amazon and Board Game Geek, I just decided "what the hell" and dropped the money on it. Besides, it's a Fantasy Flight Game, and with stuff put out by that company, you know you're at least getting quality in terms of the board, pieces, etc.
Based on H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, the premise of this game is that you're an occult investigator in 1920s Arkham, Massachusetts, and one of the Great Old Ones is on the verge of waking from its slumber and treating the world like a yummy chew toy. Portals to other freaky dimensions start opening up at various unstable locations throughout the city, and you have to explore these other dimensions so you can come back out and close the portals, fighting monsters and searching for clues every step of the way. If too many portals remain open unchecked, the Ancient One awakens and then you're fucked.
One of my favorite things about this game is that it's cooperative, which is very unusual for board games. In the core game, up to 8 players can team up to stop the awakening of the Ancient One, and believe me, it's in your best interest to work with the other players and help them out, because if you screw up, the Ancient One awakens and then you have one last feeble attempt at stopping it before you all die and everyone loses. This whole "all of us versus the game" mechanic is interesting, and results in a different playing experience from most free-for-all or team games. (more...)

Hope to see all of you guys in the live chat room when the show returns! You definitely don't wanna miss this live episode because I hear there's gonna be something epic taking place during the episode.
I was in CVS last night and could barely contain my excitement when I stumbled upon this set of musical Halloween lights or "Luces Miscales de Dia de Los Muertos" as the box informs our Spanish speaking friends. I already have an official set of licensed Friday the 13th lights along with some Texas Chainsaw Massacre ones as well (which you can see here), but I absolutely had to pick up this generic set from China. First off, I love how the Jason Voorhees hockey mask looks on these ones. Each mask has a nice 'n aged dirty look to it with just a hint of red mascara around the eyes. What... you didn't know Jason enjoys to put mascara on his mask to show a little warmth? Well now you do.
The other reason is because that this light set plays music when turned on. This was the real selling point for me because of the particular song they chose for these lights. I couldn't believe what I was hearing when I turned them on, and you won't either. Allow me to show you:
Yep! They actually decided to put John Carpenter's "Halloween" theme song with this set of Friday the 13th hockey mask lights! It's too bad they don't have a set of lights for Michael Myers, because I'm sure it would play "ki ki ki, ma ma ma" when turned on if they did. I know the two killers wear masks 'n all, but come on... the differences between the two are quite obvious. One's a psycho hockey player, the other is a psycho William Shatner.
This is now officially my favorite set of Halloween lights and they're going to keep my eyeball bubble light nice 'n company. At 13 bux (*gasp* a strange pricing coincidence or perhaps CVS paying a subtle nod to the Friday the 13th series?) for a set of 10, I'm seriously tempted to go back and buy some more of these.
I'm not sure what the situation is in your town with Halloween merchandise, but most of my local drug stores are already set up with their own unique collections of spooky goods. I drove out of my way to a Target yesterday because their store phone operator claimed all their Halloween stuff was out (it wasn't). Fortunately, there was a Walgreens nearby that had plenty o' goodies for me to check out. As you can see above, I found something a bit... odd.
In the 1985 Halloween Safety film I recently reviewed, we see the girl rummaging through her candy, and she receives some "Dogs and Pups puffy stickers" in the mix. I couldn't help but wonder who the hell would hand out something like that. Turns out, it's not just something that happens in the movies (or educational films), these Halloween animal stickers are for real. What really amazes me is that the box promotes them as a "Great Trick-or-Treat Alternative!"... yep, they expect people to give these away instead of candy.
So my question to you is simple: How would you react if you went out trick-or-treating and somebody tossed these into your bag o' candies? Taking it even further, what if stickers replaced candies on Halloween entirely? Now before you rush to a decision, it's only fair that I show you exactly what these stickers look like, so here ya go:
So what's it gonna be? Bat Cats and Devil Dogs or Wonka Bars and Gobstoppers? Let's hear what you chose and why! The fate of the world depends on your answers. The FATE of the WORLD.
