After a VERY long wait, the UHM shirts and sweaters have FINALLY come in stock today!!
I’ll be packing some up and shipping them out by Friday, but I’ll be sending out only a handful of orders at a time, so I don’t get overwhelmed and make any potential mistakes. I’ll be sending out the orders in a similar fashion that they came in, so if you were one of the first to pre-order then you’ll likely have your stuff sent out before those that ordered a little later.
Also, keep in mind that if you take a picture of yourself with the shirt/sweater and send it to me or upload it somewhere public (like a social outlet or something) and send me the link, then I’ll either refund you a few bucks or give you credit towards a future order. I’m looking to create an Album on UHM and on UHM’s FB that shows everyone sportin’ a UHM shirt/sweater.
So now that they’re all in, expect to get your items very soon!

Adrien Brody had some issues with the producers of Dario Argento’s Giallo. Apparently he was still owed 0,000 so he decided to sue to block the release here in the states. Now he has finally gotten his money and the suit has been settled. Early word on the film however is not good. But as long as its Argento behind the camera its worth at least one viewing like every Romero film.
In Giallo Brody plays an FBI agent hunting a serial killer in Italy and following his payment he made this statement according to Deadline, “I very much enjoyed the process of making Giallo, and am happy that things have been resolved and that people can now enjoy seeing the film.”
Now I actually feel ashamed that I have not seen Bleed, by watching that trailer, this looks totally kickass! Well now it’s available on DVD I have no excuse, so I’ll be checking this one out soon, as so should you.
Anyway Sonny Fernandez is doing really great stuff, considering the tiny budget, he has created something which looks fantastic and I applaud people who can make something from nothing.
Our very own Moviemaven had this to say about Bleed; “- if you are looking for passion, creativity and heart I beg you to join me in this journey. Sonny Fernandez employs guerilla film making at its best, using whatever means necessary to get his ideas on film. That is what truly draws me to his work. His stories are really very good and I can only imagine that with a budget he could create something incredible. But until that time I will continue to enjoy the ride for what it is. Pure, unadulterated love of the genre and more enthusiasm than most studio power houses can muster on their best days.” To read the rest of Moviemaven’s review head on over HERE.

Check out the trailer below:
Synopsis: “Bleed follows six teenagers as they awake from horrible nightmares, get dressed and walk out into the dead of night. They meet up confused and alone on a desolate street corner. With no idea how they got there, or any memory of having gotten out of bed they decide to head back home. On their way however, they quickly realize that there are things loose in the town; things with horns and tails, ghost like apparitions that appear before their eyes and horrible beasts that seem to be sprung out of their very nightmares. Having been making the underground circuit for years and having had a sordid release history (including one distributor going to jail for embezzling 250,000 dollars) Bleed is finally hitting DVD in Sept. of 2010. Filled with blood, insanity, guts and suspence, Bleed is a twisty, turny, edge of your seat low-budget epic unlike anything you’ve seen before!”
A Serbian Film, the controversial film from Srdjan Spasojevic has had it’s fare share of disappointment in the UK after being pulled from the UK’s Film4 FrightFest and again being pulled from the British Horror Film Festival. I was wondering would Spasojevic’s film ever be shown on these UK shores.
Well A Serbian Film will finally be shown in UK cinemas on December 10, 2010 and will have its London premiere next Thursday November 25 at 6:30 p.m. at the Prince Charles Cinema, with Spasojevic in attendance. If you live in the UK advanced tickets can be purchased HERE.
Not only that but A Serbian Film will be released in the UK on Blu-ray and DVD on January 3, 2011.
So it seems the UK will be getting an overhaul of Serbian madness, for more information on the DVD & Blu-ray release head on over HERE.
