The Zombie Horror Picture Show—Review

Recently I posted an Instagram photo of my newly acquired Rob Zombie Live BluRay disc The Zombie Horror Picture Show. I’d purchased it with the Megadeth Countdown to Exctinction Live DVD (it seems near impossible to get that one on BluRay). When posting the image to Twitter I was asked politely to review the concert movie. When I say politely, I mean there was talk of flash mobs and burning Gibsons. I couldn’t allow that. I love Gibsons and I hate crowds. So, here is my own review/opinion of the Rob Zombie live concert movie that is … The Zombie Horror Picture Show.

I freaking loved it.

Pretty simple really. But perhaps I should expand on that. Oh OK, I will. … The Zombie Horror Picture Show—Review

Megatrip—Megadeth themed road trip

Recently I went through with my planned Megatrip. A Megatrip is a road trip that has one simple rule … Nothing but Megadeth can be played in the car stereo while you’re driving. According to my PC media player, the Megadeth CD catalogue—studio albums only—goes for 10 1/2 hours. So, using the power of Google Maps, I plotted a course to a destination that was 5 1/4 hours from my house. The return trip would therefore take the required 10 1/2 hours and by the time I got home, I’d have listened to Megadeth’s studio album catalogue from beginning to end.

It was a trip my entire family was looking forward to (perhaps not as much as me). … Megatrip—Megadeth themed road trip

40 metal video clips from the 80s

I currently have two teenage children. Therefore I get to listen to my fair share of currently popular music. Recently this has led me to believe that the music from my teenage years was far superior to the music of today. To prove my point I decided to post links on Twitter to 40 video clips from my teenage years (1983-1989).

When I put the clips together I did have a few moments of doubt. Especially when I focused on the quality of the video clips over the quality of the music. Was the music I listened to in the 80s superior to the music of today? Was music just better in the 80s? Generally … No. But I listen to heavy metal. And heavy metal has always been better than everything else. … 40 metal video clips from the 80s
