A Dark Knight promotion, featuring a chocolate cake wired to look like an explosive device, prompted a local San Antonio, Texas, news station to call in the bomb squad earlier this week.
Echoing the Aqua Teen Hunger Force bomb scare in Boston in Feb. 2007, the low-budget guerilla campaign delivered some unintended results for the Santikos Theater chain.
"Causing that kind of disturbance with the bomb squad and police officers was never our intention," said Meghan Vincent, a rep for the eight-theater chain in Texas. "This was not exactly the kind of press we were going for."
World Toy and Collectible manufacturers and retailers are taking a hit as a consequence of Olympic goodwill. Fearsmag.com has learned (from the press releases submitted to us.) that the Beijing Olympics are causing delays in the production and release of various toys and collectibles worldwide.
The Chinese government has forced the closure of factories near Beijing for a month, in hopes that the world's athletes might not suck in quite as much poison as the average Chinese citizen from that thick chemical smog passing for air in China.
Because of this, the Chinese government has caused manufacturers and retailers worldwide to miss production and sales deadlines. This is mostly due to the Chinese government's as usual inefficient way of informing manufacturers of their plans months before the Olympics.
However foreign companies aren't the only ones being adversely affected by the Olympian Air Cleanse, thousands Chinese workers who have been pulled off their jobs were told they had been treated to a "cooperative-comrade" month's long UNPAID VACATION. --Serious consequences for people who make on average $1 a day and more ominous evidence of China's lack of workers' rights.
This just fresh in from Hustler video: A spoof of the classic horror comedy TV sitcom, The Munsters. Called of course…This Ain’t The Munster’s XXX. Releasing in September 2008.
It looks like Corey Feldman can't get a break back to the big screen. The long awaited (and mostly forgotten about) sequel to THE LOST BOYS, LOST BOYS: The Tribe is heading straight to video according to Bloody-disgusting.com. Not to worry, Corey, give it a month or so and your movie will be one of those "Exclusive" SciFi Channel premieres. Then you can hang with SCIFi heavy hitters like Lou Diamond Phillips.
Corey looks like he's barely aged in the 20 years since the last movie. Maybe he's a vampire? Or is it CGI?
