Charles Band and Full Moon have a new feature in the works that we think you guys will be interested in. Check out the first word on Ooga Booga, set for release in February 2013.

Band is directing Ooga Booga, and the stars who have signed on so far include Karen Black (Trilogy of Terror, House of 1000 Corpses) and bestselling author Maddox (The Alphabet of Manliness, The Best Page in the Universe).

Synopsis:
Revenge is served on a spear when dirty cops brutally murder DEVIN, an innocent African-American med student. Devin's soul is magically transferred into the body of an action figure named OOGA BOOGA. Armed only with his tribal weapon and the help of his old girlfriend, DONNA, Ooga Booga takes to the streets and trailer parks to find the men who stole his bright future away from him. The bodies begin to pile up as Ooga Booga slices and dices his way through crooked cops, meth heads, and demented city officials in order to clear his name. Racists, beware! You won't even have enough time to scream, "Ooga Booga!"

Oooh that's a pretty dismissive take on things isn't it? I disagree vehemently. There are all types of horror books it just sounds like the author of this article wants to trash the whole genre.

Yeah, I read it after I posted the link and was kind of surprised they couldn't think of ANYONE doing horror today that was worthwhile. Really? Seems to me like there's plenty of good **** coming out still.
 
Well they set the bar high by saying there is no Stoker or Shelly...that's like saying all literature sucks because there is no Twain/Hemmingway. Piffle!
 
First Synopsis for THE LAST EXORCISM II: THE BEGINNING OF THE END | Collider

Here’s the synopsis for The Last Exorcism II: The Beginning of the End:

Eli Roth & Strike Entertainment bring us an even more terrifying and bigger scale sequel to THE LAST EXORCISM that grossed $70 million worldwide. It looks like Nell Sweetzer’s last exorcism was not foolproof. She is back… and so are her demons.

Continuing where the first film left off, teenage Nell Sweetzer is found dirty and terrified in the woods having just escaped a demon ritual in which a cult helped her give birth to a demon baby. Confused and scared, Nell is examined by doctors but she doesn’t remember much about the previous few months except that as a result of everything, her family is now dead. She is moved into Davreaux – a girls’ halfway house in New Orleans, where she will try to put her life back together with the help of the therapist, Frank Merle. She even begins to date a boy named Chris and starts a job at a local hotel.

But something doesn’t feel right to Nell. She is being sought after by the demon who possessed her in the first LAST EXORCISM. It wants Nell, but in a different way than before…

Doc NYC Review: 'My Amityville Horror' Is A Disturbing Mixture Of The Paranormal And The Psychological | The Playlist

Daniel's psychic scars are thick and chunky and not fully healed; but he can recite the version of events popularized in American culture in exacting detail, including the spatial geography of where certain things manifested themselves. (All from spending less than a month there.) He even claims that the malevolent spirits followed him outside of the house as he made his way through the world. This is the moment when the literal and metaphoric blur, hopelessly, and "My Amityville Horror" takes on a singularly unnerving power. Daniel's childhood demons are an impossible combination of supposed paranormal horror, true crime ghastliness, and childhood abuse. In the inferno that is his mind, they've become interlocked, and in the movie based on his life, they are essential and wholly riveting. [A-]

Jaume Balaguero's Sleep Tight to Tuck You in this January | Horror Movie, DVD, & Book Reviews, News, Interviews at Dread Central

Toiling silently among the residents of an everyday Barcelona apartment building, doorman Cesar (Luis Tosar; Even the Rain, Miami Vice) harbors a dark secret: His sole desire in life is to make others unhappy. When he sets his sights on Clara (Marta Etura; Cell 211, Dark Blue Almost Black), one of his building's cheeriest residents, his sick need blossoms into a full-fledged obsession.

Embarking on a series of private and physical violations against Clara, Cesar becomes determined to ruin her life by any means necessary. Becoming the boogeyman hiding under the bed and bringing her nightmares to life, his fascination with torment soon crosses the line into lunacy - and his thirst for others' sadness soon becomes manically unquenchable.

Director Balaguer? delves into the perverse fantasies of a man on the brink, and delivers an unnerving tale of obsession and torment that delivers nonstop thrills right up to its shocking conclusion.
