Charity

As a community horror fans are not only the best and brightest but also the most giving. We know it's a trying time of the year, but it's also time to bring your attention to one hell of a good cause.

In Austin, Texas and looking to take part in the mayhem that will be A Very Green and Lynch Christmas? Well you're in luck because we have your chance to win tickets to the event on us and officially be one of the cool kids helping to keep Austin weird!

All right, fangbangers, it's time to put your money where your mouths are. Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin, the "True Blood" stars who play vampire Bill Compton and telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse, are auctioning off a set of autographed "True Blood" Season Two posters and a DVD set for charity, and just a few days remain for you to take part!

Adam Green and Joe Lynch are filmmakers that give. Of course sometimes they end up giving you stuff that sends you to your doctor for regular treatments for the burning and itching, but damnit, they're generous! If you're in the Austin, Texas, area, they're ready to spread a bit more cheer (and other things) your way!

Nick Principe is a hard man to ignore. He stands about 6'7" tall, is covered in badass tattoos and is best known for playing a chrome-skulled killer that some feel could be horror's next iconic slasher. And now, straight out of Arkansas, Principe brings us his newest malevolent murderer, a pig mask donning psycho named Damien Ewell in Eric England's first feature film, Madison County.

We sadly report, for those who haven't heard, the unforgettable Jewel Shepard has been diagnosed with breast cancer. And due to limited health insurance coverage, she is forced to raise a considerable sum of money to pay for the treatment. But this is a great opportunity for us to band together as a horror community and help one of our own. And you can get some pretty cool swag out of it, too.

We couldn’t do it every year without you!

"There's a shortage of perfect breasts in the world. It would be a pity to damage yours." One of my favorite cinematic lines of all time, delivered by Cary Elwes as Westley in The Princess Bride. And it's that kind of breast attitude that must have prompted the good people at Fright Rags to re-launch their breast cancer awareness shirt design.
