It started with a tweet. I have no idea who put said tweet in my feed, but in that feed there was a trailer for a film that sounded so vague that admittedly my curiosity was piqued. The name? Some Guy Who Kills People.

As part of our continuing coverage of the 2011 Screamfest LA Film Festival, we chatted with Ryan A. Levin, the writer and producer of one of the fest's selections, the feature Some Guy Who Kills People, and got the lowdown on the horror-comedy, which is set for its Screamfest premiere on Friday, October 21st, at 10:00 pm.

The dead are coming. That's right, "The Walking Dead" will be kicking off Season 2 this Sunday, October 16, for a big ol' 13 episode run. And what better way to prepare for the event than to attend "The Walking Dead" panel at New York Comic Con this Saturday!

By this time next week the 2011 New York Comic Con will be wrapping up for another year, but let's not get too far ahead of ourselves -- there are panels to see and toys to buy first! Here's a look at the horror highlights along with a few other genre-related appearances that should be of interest to our readers.

Thirty years after his horror comedy An American Werewolf in London put him on the genre map, director John Landis is back with his latest project, Burke & Hare, an incredibly dark comedy surrounding two down-on-their-luck 19th century graverobbers (played by Simon Pegg and Andy Serkis) who realize that a local medical school will pay handsomely for fresh cadavers. Being resourceful entrepreneurs, Burke and Hare start causing 'accidents' around Edinburgh in order to fulfill the need for bodies, which eventually spirals out of control in both hilarious and dramatic fashions.

John Landis' horror comedy Burke & Hare is playing RIGHT NOW on VOD, and to give you a bit more incentive as to why you should be spending less time reading this and more time viewing that, we've lined up four clips for you! Look for Burke & Hare to score a limited theatrical release on September 9th!

A new clip from the John Landis horror comedy Burke & Hare has hit the interwebs filled with laughs and one hell of a jump scare! Dig on the goods while we all wait patiently for IFC to unleash the flick! Look for Burke & Hare to score a limited theatrical release on September 9th along with a VOD release on August 5th!

The folks at IFC (bless their hearts) have released a new trailer for the John Landis horror comedy Burke & Hare along with news of when you'll finally be able to sink your teeth into this one! Dig it! Look for Burke & Hare to score a limited release on September 9th along with a VOD release on August 5th!

Finally. But hey, at least two movies about best friends who decide to fuck each other got released this year. Thankfully, IFC has stepped in and picked up John Landis' Burke and Hare for distribution. No word on a release date yet, however.

Ready to make a nice gooey splash at this year's Fantasia International Film Festival is the upcoming John Landis produced horror comedy Some Guy Who Kills People, and you can watch the film's opening moments right now!

It may be a holiday here in the States, but it's business as usual for the rest of the world, as evidenced by the news breaking today regarding the 2011 Sitges Film Festival, held 6-16 October on the Catalan coast of Spain. We have for you info on the fest's opening film as well as a programme preview.

There haven't been many publicity materials available for the new John Landis horror comedy now haunting the UK, but we kept our shovels firmly planted in the ground and have dug up nearly two dozen images for you.
