The Bunnies of Horror.

Freddy vs Jason - Bunny Style


It may NOT be the slowest news week ever but this writer has himself all worked up in the Halloween spirit this year. Rather than report on the prospects of several horror related stories that surfaced this week (Eg: Sam Mendes to Direct a Preacher film, Ron Perlman to play Elvis in the Bubbu Ho-Tep Sequel etc) I have decided to attempt to spread some Hallows Eve cheer care of some cute cuddly bunnies who juts happened to be obsessed with all things cinema.

The Bunny gets Jaws


Found on starz.com, the Bunnies have been entertaining movie geeks for a few years now. Practising their own unique brand of crib noting feature length films (Stars Wars, Napoleon Dynamite, james Bond etc) these are carrot eaters that give Bugs a run for his money. Typically running around 30-45 seconds these short byte re-enactments try to tackle all the vital plot points in a bid for laughs. It works.

Star Wars Bunnies


The site is divided into genres (Bunny Channels), naturally today we explore the Horror label. Each bunny escapade filled with decapitating, blood soaked mayhem in the guise of some of pop cultures most revered and recognized icons. From the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, to Friday The 13th, Night of the Living Dead and The Exorcist you will find them all parodied by these long eared, cotton tailed thespians with buck teeth.

Below I have embedded to available samples from the site, to see the rest, just click HERE.

Ron Howard goes Political

October 26th 2008 03:11
Opie Cunningham and the Election

Opie loves Obama?


Those cunning little miscreants over at funnyordie.com just keep delivering solid laughs. Their latest acquisition is a fun political statement from Richie Cunningham himself, one Ron Howard. (Sure the guy has Directed oscar winning films too, but they are so schmaltzy I will always see him as that freckle faced teen who was just a "nice guy")

ron howard happy days ritchie cunningham
Ritchie in Love


Abandoning his false modesty for a while the one time helmer of Nightshift and Willow goes on record about his stance on the upcoming November 4 election. Laced with sarcasm that could be seen as wit Ron and pals Andy Griffith and Henry Winkler offer some psuedo sage advice about who they believe should run the country known as the U.S for the next four years.

No suprises that its Obama that seems to have caught their fancy, comedically though they choose to expound on what the
opposite side will bring to the white house.

Rather than spoil any of the finer moments to be had, without further ado. Enjoy the clip below.

Clint Eastwood's Gran Tarino

Clint burns rubber for a greater good

Nobody takes Clints Car and Lives to tell about it


Dirty Man With No Name Eastwood has defied convention, refused stereotype and in his vineripening maturity continues to be one of the most prolific filmmakers in the bussiness. Terminally cool, with a staunch tough guy pressence his contemplative work behind the camera has enabled him to be seen as a multi dimensional artist who has transcended the box that the men with money would have liked to cage him in.

After several high profile, Oscar baiting works like Flags of Our Fathers and Million Dollar Baby it is with some glee that us simpler fans have yearned for the return of the grumpy, violent island unto themselves characters that made him a mega star. Sure his Don Siegel collaborations like Dirty Harry had a social commentary and his epic teaming with Sergio Leone reinvented celluloid mythology, but it is the determined, never say die attitude of the parts that had us young men wanting to be him.

Now comes his latest Directorial effort which sees the grizzled, bullet chewing testosterone deity returning in front of the camera in the film Gran Torino. In the film Clint plays Walt Kowalski, a racist Korean War veteran who is pushed to vigilante when his treasured 1972 Gran Tarino muscle car is snatched by his slant eyed scum of a neighbour.

Actually that's a lie, (Not to mention un-PC) instead Kowalsi tries to mentor a misguided teen whose street gang initation sees him try to rip off the high octane beast. Expect more depth than this slap dash synopsis leads you to believe.

The first poster for the film (above) has just come out and cements the fact that Clint could well be the meanest looking geratric in the history of movies. There is something retro cool about our man standing in front of the classic casually packing one powerful looking piece of weaponry. Here's hoping the film is half as daunting an experience.

Gran Torino is released in Deember 2008 in the U.S.A.

Hi Anon,

Hi Ruby

Megan Fox has only just began her screen career really with a notable part in Transformers.

She was voted sexiest women alive recently and is generally one of those pretty faces with little talent that us geekboys lust after.

Great essay question -- a few adults could do with thinking about this as well

Invest in technology! When will the politicians realise that oil is over -- done -- gone -- there is just not enough of it!
