Troll 2 Shirts Available Now!
Monday, August 3rd, 2009New Troll 2 Shirt Debuts At Brooklyn Screening Tonight!
Thursday, July 30th, 2009Dear Brooklyn,
This is your pal Justin from Mondo in Austin, TX. Just a heads up, TROLL 2 and BEST WORST MOVIE are playing in your town tonight and tomorrow as part of the Rooftop Films series. You can find all information and tickets here. I’m not gonna lie and say “It’s almost sold out. Better hurry!” because I’m really not sure if it is or not, but based on everywhere else this movie plays, it does sell out…so I guess you better hurry and get tickets if you want to go. Better safe than sorry.
Not only will these movies be playing, but select cast members will be there including star of TROLL 2 and director of BEST WORST MOVIE Michael Stephenson.
If that isn’t enough, we will be debuting our brand new TROLL 2 shirt at the show and giving you all a chance to be the first to buy it!
Hit Michael and the TROLL 2 gang up at the Best Worst Movie site and also on Twitter and let them know what you think!
Sincerely,
Justin M. Ishmael
New Mondo Shirts For Sale Now! Zombies! Spawns!
Monday, June 29th, 2009About two months ago, we worked with 2009 Fantastic Fest artist Jon Vermilyea to make a shirt for one of the best horror movies ever made, THE DEADLY SPAWN. Said shirt was a big success and sold out. Lately, we’ve been getting several emails asking, “When will you be doing more shirts with Jon?” To answer that question, I say soon. Jon has probably two or three more shirts coming up in the near future not counting the 2009 Fantastic Fest shirt and poster. To hold you over until then, we’ve decided to release this shirt in two more colorways…BLACK and SLIME.
We’re also super excited about our brand new Badass Cinema shirt. ZOMBIES! Not just ZOMBIES, but PUNK ZOMBIES! Zombies are wild to begin with, but add a punk rock soundtrack to the mayhem and forget about it!
These are available online or in-store now!

New Posters: Rocky Horror, Goonies, Night of the Creeps!
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009Hey Nerds! Come and get it!
It’s like a poster buffet over here today. Hope you have a big appetite.
First up we have the Glow in the Dark NIGHT OF THE CREEPS poster by Jon Smith. This bad boy is hand numbered, 24×36 and printed at D and L screenprinters out of Seattle, WA.
Next up we have round two in the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW poster set. Ken Taylor returns to blow holes in your wall with the tag team of Columbia and Frank-N-Furter. As with the first set, the cut set measures 12×36 and the uncut set measures 24×36. This print is four color, hand numbered and was printed at D and L screenprinters.
Last, we have this crazy THE GOONIES poster by Drew Millward. This measures in at 18×24, hand numbered and is printed at D and L. Really, how nuts is the Gold parchment variant?! There are only 30 of the variant, so move now. As of now, we’ve already sold around 10. Don’t miss out!
Murder Monday Vol. 4: Brain Damage
Monday, June 8th, 2009If you don’t know who Frank Henenlotter is, click HERE right now. If you’re into horror movies, you’ll love him as this guy was killing it in the 80′s. Literally.
Today’s murder Monday is from BRAIN DAMAGE.
Anyone recognize the voice of Aylmer the drug pushing alien? It’s horror host Zacherley!
Henenlotter also did cool things like cross characters over from his other movies. For instance, you can see the man holding the basket from BASKET CASE riding the subway in BRAIN DAMAGE. Never seen BASKET CASE? Well, here’s a clip dubbed in Italian:
(If anyone knows if this prop still exists, get ahold of me. No joke, I’ll pay whatever you want for it.)
Check Henenlotter’s movies out. You won’t be disappointed.

Murder Monday Vol. 3: Sam Raimi Edition
Monday, June 1st, 2009I’m sure that most of the people that read this blog have already seen DRAG ME TO HELL. Word on the street(street changed its name to internet a long time ago) is that Mr. Raimi has made his triumphant return to directing horror. Without any debate or question, he is a GREAT director, but I think he needs to get more respect as an actor. He has really become kind of a Dick Miller type of guy with me. I love it when I’m watching something and he’s a newscaster or a security guard or someting.
So, in this speical Raimi Edition of Murder Monday, I thought I’d show you some of the best non-Raimi directed deaths involving the man of honor. Come on…It’d be way too easy for me to go on youtube, type in EVIL DEAD and pull off all of the best kills from the trilogy and put them in here. That’s just lazy though, right?
First up is one of my favorite horror movies…INTRUDER. Sure, this kill isn’t so hot because it cuts away, but you later get to see him hanging from the hook. There are lots of great kills in this movie though. Seriously, if anyone knows Scotty Spiegel, please let him know that there is a dude in Austin, TX that is obsessed with his career. Besides directing INTRUDER, he wrote and directed the best FROM DUSK TIL DAWN film in the series (2), co-wrote EVIL DEAD 2 with Raimi and even wrote the insanely under appreciated Lustig jam, HIT LIST. I love you, Scotty!
Next we have MILLER’S CROSSING. I love this scene even though the audio is WAY out of synch in this clip:
And last but certainly not least, a movie that I urge you to rent, order or borrow immediately…STRYKERS REVENGE aka THOU SHALT NOT KILL…EXCPEPT! This movie is so great! It’s by far Sam’s best performance and without a doubt his best death scene. Luckily, whoever posted this clip included every scene from the movie with Raimi in it, so it’s like the Castle Films version of TSNK…E!
Can any of you think of any I’ve missed?

Murder Monday Vol. 2: MANIAC COP 2 w/ Bonus Rap!
Tuesday, May 26th, 2009Almost forgot about the Murder Monday post, but I’ve got my priorities in order. To kind of apologize for my tardiness, I’m going to give you like 175 murders in one post instead of just one measly murder.
If you haven’t seen MANIAC COP 2 because it isn’t on DVD, quit being a lazy jerk and go find the VHS copy and watch it. It’s WAAAAY better than the first MANIAC COP and MC1 is pretty hard to top. I’m not going to write about why you should watch this…the tasty clip above speaks for itself.
Three years ago at a comic book convention in Kansas City, KS I met Robert Z’ Dar and he invited me back to his hotel room to drink wine with him. I don’t remember the circumstances, but I had to turn him down…that has seriously been my only regret up to this point in life.
If the above clip doesn’t make you want to see this movie, the MANIAC COP rap over the end credits definitely will…ENJOY!
Night of the Creeps Reunion!
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009First, watch this:
Now, get your tickets for this:
NIGHT OF THE CREEPS DIRECTORS CUT AND CAST REUNION!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Murder Monday Vol. 1: DEADLY FRIEND
Monday, May 18th, 2009I don’t know about you, but I sure do love horror movie deaths; especially the ones that don’t require the use of a mouse or pixel blood, so I figured that I’d post a new one every Monday to jump start your day. This weekend was a big weekend for horror movie death. The best came from Wes Craven’s underrated DEADLY FRIEND. Now, don’t misunderstand me. I’m not a Wes Craven friend. He has REALLY fallen off, but then again…was he really ever on? He’s had like three movies that were good out of over 20…and I’m not counting the porn he did before LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT. Maybe those are good, dunno though. Regardless, none of that can take away from how badass this kill is from DEADLY FRIEND….and yes, I do count DEADLY FRIEND as one of the three good movies he has done.

P.S. Fuck it…why not? I like this movie so much that I actually got it tattooed on me. It’s an obsession!
