Herbert West is back in NEW Animated H.P.Lovecraft Movie

Re-Animator Fans rejoice! it seems our manic scientist is returning to the big screen in this official adaption.

I'm personally a MASSIVE fan of the Re-Animator movies and H.P.Lovecraft's work, the guy was a genius but so underrated in his time (I can relate lol).

Fans have been craving for another outing for Herbert West, noticeably played by Jeffrey Combs in 1985's Re-Animator, 1989's Bride of Re-Animator and 2003's Beyond Re-Animator, since the early 2000's.

In fact there was talk of a FOURTH movie titled House of Re-Animator but after going through development hell even IMDB dropped it.

Now we have a NEW adventure.....sort of, Deadline reported the official story:

Apparently the film is going to introduce a new, young, audience to the writings of Lovecraft by blending his life and work into one. 

Ron Perlman will voice Shoggoth, while Christopher Plummer has been cast as Herbert West. Hmm something's not quite right with that sentence because you don't spell Combs with a P.....

Shout! Factory have secured all U.S. rights to the film in all areas — theatrical, digital, broadcast, home entertainment — last year and has rights for cross-platform releases in Canada. The film is scheduled for a fall 2016 release.

Could be sort of a gateway to horror for young kids, hopefully they won't water it down too much though. I mean it's got to have edge otherwise it's not Lovecraft.... SERIOUSLY there must be madness!!

If I built your hopes up for the return of Jeffrey Combs I'm sorry, so as a conciliation prize here's The original Novella by Lovecraft read by....you can figure it out ;)

Master Of The Lords: Introducing An Epic '80s Cartoon-Inspired Comic

If you grew up a child of the '80s (and heck, even if you didn't), you remember the cartoons, the comics, and of course, the toys. The '80s were such a magical time, some (if not most) of those franchises are still alive and kicking today. 

Doing some research I learned that most of these cartoons were made with the only purpose of selling toys, rather than being offended by this, I was inspired. Being a comic book writer I thought, what If I created a line of toys first, and then come up with a crazy story to tie the whole concept together?

I partnered with my friend (and comic artist) David Marquez to help me design the characters, their weapons, their vehicles, play sets and so on.

We came up with four different worlds, there is 'Dojoria' a world full of ninjas, 'Sangri-La' is inhabited by Barbarians, 'Mondo Extremo' is roamed by extreme sports mutant aficionados, and then there is 'Moondance', a planet where Dinosaurs wear astronaut suits, gold chains, and have an obsession with Hip Hop music.

All of these four worlds would be put to war by a blood thirsty God, who is really just a child from our dimension who has somehow learned to project himself into their worlds, appearing as a mighty deity. All we needed now was an epic '80s cartoon title, enter, MASTER OF THE LORDS.

If you like '80s Cartoons or just crazy fun, you can read the complete first chapter of MASTER OF THE LORDS for Free HERE!

Also, we are currently running a fundraising campaign to help us finish the complete Graphic Novel, if you want to donate or get tons of cool perks, you can do it HERE.

Lastly, you can hear the three track mini soundtrack by ANCIENT ORDER OF THE DROIDS right here, we hope it takes you back to your magical childhood (again, even if you didn't grew up in the '80s).
