Hammer Busts Out!

New from Titan Merchandise U.K., an amazing Christopher Lee Dracula and Peter Cushing Van Helsing bust!  There's also an Ingrid Pitt Countess Dracula too!  Finally, some new, excellent Hammer collectibles!

Available at fine specialty and comic book stores everywhere!

Django Is Back... sort of.

Check out the advance trailer for Quentin Tarantino's star-studded DJANGO UNCHAINED! From the trailer, it looks like it's a strange brew concocted of ingredients from MANDINGO, SPARTACUS, HELL UP IN HARLEM any Fred Williamson western.  As a bonus, you even get Franco Nero and James Brown to boot!  Sadly, I don't see Django dragging his beloved mud-encrusted coffin anywhere in the trailer.
