You just reminded me of James Rolfe's (aka Angry Video Game Nerd) Monster Madness marathon. Seems he's doing the last one this year. Here's the link if you're interested: http://cinemassacre.com/category/moviereviews/monstermadness/monstermadnessx/.

Yesterday I posted some videos from YouTube's Top5s video channel which I hoped you all enjoyed as much as I had when I discovered them. Today's posting though I I thought I'd shift gears a bit and share something a bit different yet unique in it's approach. We are all use to hearing ghost stories, either by friends family or videos on the web. But YouTuber Llama Arts (with help from Mr. Nightmare I'm told) decided to put a bit more effort into these creepy tales by actually animated them. At first I wasn't sure about it myself once I saw the intital animation style. It's not quite flash quailty but it isn't stick figures either. But at the same time it has that animation quaitly you'd might see on a cartonn network show, primetime or adult swim variant. Despite this it was indeed a step up from other channels that had some story tellers speak of their stories thru stills or vague images in an attempt in trying to set the mood. But after I watched a couple of episodes I was hooked in how the animation fits the storytelling very well. The music and sound effects are a nice touch and though they didn't exactly scare me to my wits, it did set a creepy tone that has helped me get into the Octoberween mood.
Check out these two complications of animated horror stories, running the gauntlet of tales of craigslist encounters, camping expeditions, mysterious visitations to deep web diving. It's just too bad the first video has commercials. Enjoy!
