Happy Howlidays! Infinite Santa 8000

Infinite Santa


"A thousand years ago the world completely collapsed. Everyone must kill to survive, even Santa."

"Infinite Santa 8000" takes place in the sand blasted wastelands of a ruined earth, where the only life that remains are hideous blood thirsty mutants and a handful of robot people. Old St. Nick has battled monstrous demons for hundreds of years, and hasn't seen a single soul, until Martha comes along. The little cyborg girl warms Santa's ice cold heart, and for the first time in over a thousand years, he finds himself laughing once more. Santa's joy is short lived, however, when the evil Dr. Shackleton reveals his hideous plans to vivisect him and discover what makes Santa immortal.

Dr. Shachleton

Santa is one bad-ass mother is this flash animation cartoon series, he battles with Christmas themed pole-axes and snowflake shaped throwing stars, and he has a cool "hog" to ride on as well.

If you are a fan of splatter punk, Christmas horror, and the creepy monstrous art style of Metalocalypse, this 12 episode cartoon series is for you.

Movie Review and Director Interview: Jenny Ringo and the Monkey's Paw by Chris Regan


"Jenny Ringo and the Monkey's Paw" is a horror comedy by Chris Regan loosely based on the classic short horror story "The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs which you can read here

Jenny Ringo lives with her slacker best friend Gavin. While on a Wiccan retreat, he deigns to leave the apartment and comes across the mysterious and musical Magician who gives him a magic monkey's paw that will grant three wishes. Needless to say, Gavin does not wish wisely and quickly regrets wishing for an awesome new best friend named Jeff Awesome. Jeff needs a girlfriend that is as awesome as he is, and Gavin wishes for Candy Gorgeous, and a pizza. Comedic antics ensue as Jenny returns to find Gavin in trouble. It's up to her to save him from the curse of the monkey's paw.


Unfortunately Jeff Awesome and Candy Gorgeous don't want to be erased from existence, and the only way to undo Gavin's wishes is to re-attach the paw to the monkey, which brings it's own troubles by sending the individual to their own personal hell.

Jeremiah Kipp Interview: Crestfallen, Contact and The Sadist


Jeremiah Kipp is a journalist that works for Fangoria and Shock Cinema Magazine. He has directed seven short films, including "The Christmas Party," "The Pod," "Contact" and "Crestfallen." His first feature length film "The Sadist" starring Tom Savini is currently in post-production.

In my humble opinion, he is a fantastic director with a fine eye for detail that allows his works to conjure up strong, deep emotions in the viewer. Not very many directors are able to do that, especially when working with minimalist dialogue, or in the case of "Crestfallen," no dialogue at all.
