Horror Roundtable - Week Twenty-Eight
Name your most anticipated horror event of the new year.

It’s probably whatever Clive Barker shows up with next, whether it’s The Scarlet Gospel or the film version of The Midnight Meat Train. But mostly I’m trying not to anticipate anything–as with The Descent, I’d be perfectly content to be surprised.
The greatest horror novel ever–mine.
Jeff O’Brien
Wishful thinking department: That Robert R McCammon would unretire and go back to writing his brilliant horror novels. He stopped writing WAY too soon. Closer to home, seeing HG Lewis Gore Gore Gore-met go before the cameras. And finally seeing a new John Carpenter film hit the theatres!
Unless I hook-up with Elvira, two words: Muthafuckin’ GRINDHOUSE.
I am more than sure this will be the greatest horror film–hell, film PERIOD–ever made.
Seeing Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN. It may be awesome, it may be a failure, but it’s bound to be its own beast.
I can’t wait for Rob Zombie’s Halloween. It’s gonna suck. Summer 2007? That’s what I heard though the movie has not been made yet. I thought Rob Zombie said he was gonna move on and do non-horror pictures?
I am actually REALLY looking forward to seeing PAN’S LABYRINTH. I know it’s out now in certain markets, but I haven’t been able to see it yet here in Detroit! As far as looking ahead, the only other horror movies I’m going to most definitely see in the theatre are HOSTEL 2 and GRINDHOUSE.
David Z. - Tomb It May Concern
By far Eurotrash Paradise World Con 4 (location to be determined). And of course doing 52 straight Horror Roundtables…
Being an avid admirer of Wolf Creek, I’m really looking forward to Greg McLean’s follow-up film, Rogue, about a giant people-eating crocodile in the Outback, starring Radha Mitchell and Michael vartan. IMDb has it listed as being released on Groundhog Day, which seems really soon since I haven’t seen a poster, trailer, or even an image from the film yet (have I missed something? Let me know!); the only word I have heard were some pretty negative test-screening responses. So we shall see, but I’m cautiously optimistic. Wolf Creek rocked.

I’d have to say my most anticipated event of the weekend is Bloody-Disgusting and Horrorhound’s Horrorhound Weekend in Indianapolis. Having never attended a horror con before, I have visions of rare posters, dvd’s and who knows what else dancing about in my head. I also have high hopes of meeting fellow bloggers, etc. there as well!
Thanks to all the cool cats above for contributing to the first Horror Roundtable of the New year. I’ll be back Monday with all the news, views and other worthless junk you’ve come to expect from The Horror Blog.
