SLIPKNOT RELEASE HEAVY NEW SONG, "ALL OUT LIFE."
Oct. 31, 2018
Happy Halloween!! Slipknot just released a new song titled "All Out Life" and it's a groovy, heavy song. If you haven't heard the song yet, click the link at the bottom of this article and check it out!
A few weeks ago, Corey Taylor said in an interview, "What if the boys in Iowa grew up?" and he wasn't lying. This song is amazing and if the rest of their new album is like this then we are in for a treat! I'll keep you all updated with news about their new album as time roles on. Something tells me it won't be too long until we have a full album and United States tour from Slipknot!

HALLOWEEN
Oct. 19, 2018
HALLOWEEN! No, not the Holiday. Yes, that's coming up too but that's not what this is about. On Friday, October 19, Michael Myers returns to Haddonfield one last time. Nick Castle and Jaime Lee Curtis return to their iconic roles as Michael Myers and Lori Strode. The story is a bit different this time around, Lori and Michael are no longer brother and sister.Â
Therefore, everything from Halloween II and on, is out of the books. Forget those movies. This new film is taking place immediately after the original 1978 Halloween! So get your shape masks on and head down to your local movie theater to see the new Halloween!

SHORT STORIES
About me:
My name is Sean Rivera and I am an aspiring film maker. I began writing my own stories when I wrote, directed, and edited my first short film a couple years ago. I found the process of creating a film to be easier when I already had a story in my head and written out.Â
James Wan and Stephen King are my idols. If it was not for them, I probably would not be writing these stories.
I specialize in Horror and I hope whoever reads my stories or watches my films, will be creeped out but also love what they just saw or read.
