Chances are if you’re here reading this, you might be a contender as a mega Rocky IV fanatic because the truth of the matter us, I’ll never goddamn get tired of talking about this franchise and this installment in particular.
When initially announced, I had made a promise that any updates on this monster of a director’s cut would be reported on and I’m a woman of my word. Following the announcements of the iconic Sico the Robot (a move that I’m still not sold on), being cut entirely from the films in favor of more ring time, Drago dialogue, and two previously cut songs from the film- we finally have an update on the film via Sly’s Instagram.
It seems as if the cut is nearing completion as the “Stallion” states the finishing touches are being added. So one can only assume that we should see this coveted cut of the movie sooner rather than later!
There’s no easy way out of the anxiety that takes over when thinking about a possible, brand new version of one of my favorite flicks ever. However, stay tuned for more updates when the official release is announced!
It is time, monster fans! The two most legendary names of kaiju are back in Legendary’s most anticipated Monsterverse film yet, Godzilla vs Kong!

The most anticipated monster mash of all time is upon us and we can hardly contain ourselves! Ever since we were introduced to Legendary’s extraordinary Monsterverse one single cross-over was forefront on every fan’s mind: Godzilla vs Kong!
And it’s happening this year at long last.
King Kong vs Godzilla has long been a fan favorite of the Showa age, beloved for its silliness and over-the-top fun. Seeing both monsters battle it out was a blast back in childhood.

Now our monsters have grown up just like us. Given the exceptional grandeur of monster upon monster chaos we’ve seen from Legendary in the past few years, we can only imagine what the studio has in store for us in this movie.
We’ve been beside ourselves wanting details, drooling over screenshots and waiting – so much fucking waiting! – on a trailer. It’s finally here and we invite you to watch it with us. The TV clips and teasers let us know something special was awaiting us. Now we have a much better glimpse at what this monsterpiece has in store.
Personally, I never thought we’d get this movie. Back during the Heisei era, there was talk of a new Kong vs Godzilla film. I think, given that era’s track record, that would have been one fan-fucking-tastic movie! That was there era that brought back King Ghidorah, Mothra, and introduced one of Godzilla’s deadliest foes, Destoroyah.

Just think what a Heisei Godzilla vs King Kong could have been like! But for one reason or another plans could not work out and fans were robbed of what could have been another cult classic.
So I just never thought this movie would happen.
I still can’t hardly believe it! I’m kind of beside myself right now. Like so happy I’m in shock.
Anyone familiar with my work will know I’m a Godzilla fanatic. I can’t get enough of the movies or merchandise. Legendary has been making fans’ dreams come true and I am forever grateful.
Godzilla Vs Kong drops in theaters and HBO MAX on March 26, 2021!
Normally I don’t write too many news articles unless it’s something sent directly to me via a press release and falls in line with NN’s nostalgic fuzzies oath. However, being as how this one hit my hometown and involves two of horror’s biggest creepy iconic dolls, I just couldn’t pass up spreading the news that Las Vegas resident Zak Bagans just bought the original Poltergeist clown doll and one of the used Chucky dolls from the 1988 film to proudly set up in his Haunted Museum here in Sin City.
Am I surprised the guy who has Ed Gein’s cauldron and briefly the original Annabelle doll made these purchases? Not a bit. Do I think these dolls are haunted? Again, hell no. But I suppose it will bring a new crowd of curious folks over to the famed house of horrors with loyal fans to the franchise.
About a year and a half ago, myself and the better half visited the now famed museum along with a group of friends. Us being locals and all had to keep our horror cards valid with being able to say we walked though the 30-room mansion. At the time of our visit, Anabelle WAS there but not on display. However, that didn’t stop our tour guide from pulling back an ominous curtain as the group pressed on to another room exposing the Raggedy devil to a friend in the group. Of to which I was a little pissed that my anxiousness to get to the Bela Lugosi mirror backfired on me. Just a little tip for those that may visit in the future- WAIT FOR THE TOUR GUIDE TO LEAVE THE ROOM.
Anyways, Bagans purchased the Poltergeist prop nightmare at an auction for a whopping $80,000 and states to TMZ that for the time, the creep-tastic nightmare fuel will safely stay in his room for a test run and will end up in the museum at a date yet to be determined.
1982’s Poltergeist has long been rumored to be a film riddled with some sort of curse extending into the sequels that include a string of bad luck and many deaths surrounding the movies. While I myself think that much of those occurrences are mere coincidences, one of the most questionable details coming from the original film was Robbie’s Superbowl poster hanging above his bed predicted the date of co-star Heather O’ Rourke fell fatally ill in 1988. The cursed rumor of course, was probably fuel for Bagans to obtain the little guy.
More recently also, the Ghost Adventures star managed to snag one of the Good Guy props from the original 1988 Child’s Play film; for $11,000. Not as much as clown boy above, but still a certainly good chuck of change. The movie prop as well has a TBD debut date at the Vegas attraction.
