  • The new poster art for the reimagining of “The Toxic Avenger” has officially been unleashed! 💥💀 

Starring Peter Dinklage in the lead role, this bold, gory, and darkly comedic update to the cult classic hits theaters August 29. Get ready to mop up some mayhem!

#TheToxicAvenger #PeterDinklage #Troma #CultClassicReboot #ToxicAvenger2025 #HorrorComedy #OnTheBigScreen #MopJustice
  • 🎶 Cranking this classic as I gear up to hit the road tomorrow night—headed to @ramsheadonstage in Annapolis, MD to do a little time travelin’ with Matthew & Gunnar Nelson live!

I’ve always had a soft spot for these guys—not just for the hooks and harmonies, but for how they’ve carried their family’s legendary torch with heart and soul.

Their “After the Rain” album brings back a lotta great memories and it’s crazy to think they were one of the first bands I ever interviewed when I launched this project nearly 20 years ago…

Somehow, I’ve never seen them live, so this night is going to check a lot of boxes! 🔥🍻

They’re out on tour RIGHT NOW—check your local listings and don’t sleep on it!

  • “House of Wax” Turns 20: A Glossy, Gory Slice of 2000s Horror History 🔥🕯️

Released 20 years ago today, “House of Wax” brought serious heat to mid-2000s horror with a glossy, modern take on the 1953 classic. The cast was a who’s who of the era: Elisha Cuthbert, Jared Padalecki, Chad Michael Murray, Robert Ri’chard, Jon Abrahams—and of course, Paris Hilton, fresh off the pop culture juggernaut that was “The Simple Life.”

At the height of her fame, Hilton’s involvement became a major draw, backed by a marketing blitz that leaned all the way in—right down to the now-infamous tagline: “See Paris Die.” It was over-the-top, it was everywhere, and it worked.

The movie didn’t set records, but it turned a tidy profit and quickly earned cult status thanks to its stylized direction, creepy ghost-town setting, and wild third act. It also delivered on another key piece of 2000s movie culture: the soundtrack. Packed with tracks from My Chemical Romance, Deftones, Marilyn Manson, Disturbed, and The Prodigy, it’s a sonic snapshot of the era that still hits hard.

Two decades later, “House of Wax” remains a fan favorite—equal parts nostalgic time capsule and blood-soaked thrill ride.
