Help produce Scott Goldberg's "The Forest Hills"

Scott Goldberg is a brilliant writer and director who needs help funding his first full-length movie called "The Forest Hills". Check out the Kickstarter page and check out the donation levels and what you get. Donate as much as $60 and get your name in the credits!

The Forest Hills is a short horror film, directed by Scott Goldberg, that touches on important subjects such as racism, society and rape, all wrapped up in a haunting horror story. We are raising funds for special effects will compliment the effectiveness of this film. $5,000 will allow us to compliment our funds and release a compelling story that will chill viewers to the bone. Yet "The Forest Hills" does not rely solely on shock value as do many horror films; it blends an intriguing story, a haunting premise, and the stunning and priceless abandoned scenery of the eastern coast, featuring locations such as Welwyn Preserve and various other scenic places on Long Island.

He was so grotesque.

Crash Cunningham's sculpture of the late legend Stan Winston's Jason Voorhees from Friday The 13th Part III. This face was used throughout the entire movie except the very end where his face was revealed- that face was done by Douglas J. White and Allan A. Appone.

Crash is an excellent artist and can't wait to get my hands on one of these busts!

Okay, a few things.

A lot of people have asked me why I don't update this as much as I used to. One reason, The Friday The 13th Films blog does a GREAT job reporting all of the Friday The 13th news, new toys, interviews and all of the other tidbits on the net. Hell, they do a much better job than I have ever did. I noticed that a lot that I post was also covered there, too. I feel that since it IS the Friday The 13th blog, they should be the ones in control of the Friday The 13th blogging.

Is www.scabboy.net dead? Nope, however I do have that domain pointed towards my Tumblr. page, which will have posts about (all) movies, my life, photos, music, etc. This horror blog will STILL be updated frequently, however it will revert back to it's old URL: scabbyhorror.blogspot.com.

So, update and change all of your bookmarks and if you have a Tumblr. account, ADD ME!

Dick Wieand in an Advair™ commercial.



Once again, thanks to CampBlood.net for getting this online. A lot of people have been asking me if I have seen it or where they can see it. For those who do not know, it's a commercial for Advair™ in which Dick Wieand (Jason/Roy in Friday The 13th Part V: A New Beginning) plugs the product.


Shavar Ross's ReggietheReckless.com open!



For all you A New Beginning and Reggie The Reckless fans alike! The store is ran by Shavar himself, so it's a chance to get these things directly from the man himself! Follow this link to his site or this one to his official blog!

Shavar has been one of the most generous Friday The 13th alum out there- signing for free only to have the people re-sell his signatures for $25 or more and there's always the fear that it's a reproduction or forgery. It's about time that he does this making it easier to obtain his signature as well as the comfort of knowing that it's authentic.

Code Red may ne re-issuing Madman!

We've learned that Code Red DVD is in the early stages of prepping a new special edition of the early 80's "slasher" cult classic Madman. Anchor Bay Entertainment initially put out the DVD back in 2001 which has long since been out of print.

Part VI sculpt close up.


This was posted on the F13-community forums- its a close up of what looks like either a sculpt of, or the actual make up appliance for Jason in Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives. I guess it is from an old Fangoria issue, I better go and look for it because I have virtually all of them!

I don't know, I just found this interesting since it's pretty rare that we a super up close (albeit not a great photo) of the face of Jason VI!

Manman Vs. The Burning


Battle of the Upstate, NY woods slasher films from 1981. Both films were loosely based on the same Upstate NY camp legend and ironically some of the actors in Madman auditioned for roles in The Burning. So, please cast your vote at the Dead Pit forums and represent! I think everyone knows my love for The Burning, be it cliche- I just love the overall look of the movie.
