See No Evil 2: 2014 Release

The 2006 movie See No Evil could easily have been awful.  WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) making a horror movie?  But they have their act(s) together with WWE Films division along with WWE wrestling superstar Kane managing to make a truly gory, jumpy and average rated horror movie.

The movie saw a bunch of delinquent youths being force to spend a weekend in an old busted up hotel. They were sent there for community service work and needed to clean the place up. One of the chaperones is former police officer, Frank Williams (Steve Vidler) who quite the police force years earlier after investigating a horrific crime scene that saw him have his arm cut off by this monstrous brute of a man. A man he had shot in the head, but did not die!

Unfortunately for the kids and their chaperones, is the presence of a man called Jacob Goodnight who has made this place his home. He is a messed up due to the horrific abuse he suffered at the hands of his own mother. He kind of sees the sin in people and as he is messed up, resorts to killing people in brutal ways. Jacob Goodnight is played by WWE wrestler Kane. Kane is a monster of a man standing near seven feet tall and almost as wide. So he makes a very menacing presence on the screen and all without the aid of a padded suit or anything like that. When he is on-screen with one of the kids you really do think that he could rip them apart at any given moment.

The kids learn fairly quickly that they are not alone in this hotel and soon instead of trying to clean the place up they are fighting for their lives when Jacob Goodnight starts to stalk them through the hotel one by one. In all See No Evil was a really fun horror movie that really deserved more credit than it got.

See No Evil 2 picks up with Jacob Goodnight believed to be dead and his body taken to a local morgue.  There are a group of medical students in this morgue who find themselves locked in.  Making matters worse, it turns out that Jacob Goodnight is back from the dead!  Now he has a whole new group of victims to taunt!

See No Evil 2 appears to be a good horror follow-up to the first movie. The Soska Sisters who gave us the cult classic Dead Hooker In A Trunk are behind this movie, so it will likely be even more gory and messy than the original.

See No Evil 2 will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray later in 2014 as of right now it does not have a definitive release date.

The Ultimate Electronic (Supernatural) Tablet Due in March

By Leave a Comment

splanxSplanx is providing a promising twist (also as in mix) of horror and science fiction in a new horror book to be released March 2014.

Go into the future beyond Apple and Steven Jobs’ imagination, a place where today’s computer tablets would be long forgotten.  Introducing Splanx – the ultimate electronic tablet of the space-oriented future, where humanity becomes one with a god-power beyond belief… Science-fiction meets horror in this novel about a paranormal investigator in Holland who becomes involved in a search for a mysterious “supernatural” digital tablet.

It was no dream, it was no nightmare. It was like a paranormal vision of something he was forced to see, one of many he was used to seeing as a paranormal investigator, of course, and Resi had little choice but to obey. It was his job, he kept telling himself. Ease through the tremors of any ghostly assault. Her screaming inside the distant room was probably not heard by others, only himself. He heard too clearly, and all the Dutch beer from the downstairs bar wouldn’t stop it. 

“Help me…please!” the voice kept wailing. Her voice – Laira’s – was invading a vast section of an energized space. She had been so recently a part of the place, yet now she was evanescent energy in a shifting geography of time and space. Resi might as well have been in that room instead of his closetlike own; the wailing kept penetrating the aged paper-thin walls. In the dark his hypersensitive eyes squeezed shut almost automatically with each wail. He was an instrument being played upon.

Peter Magliocco was born in Glendale, CA, USA, in 1948 and educated in the public schools there. He earned a B.A. in fine art from California State University at Northridge. He’s single and a military veteran of the Viet Nam war era, and has worked in the security field for several years while freelancing his art, poetry, and fiction to various alternative and literary-oriented publications. He lives in Las Vegas.
