over Fangoria Radio [7.13.07]

special by the classic slasher film of the same name, which spawned an iconic
killer everybody recognizes and nobody knows how to stop. On tonight’s show
(which airs on Sirius Satellite Radio channel 102 from 10 p.m.- 1 a.m., with a repeat airing
immediately after).

Hatchet gets an R-rating
[6.25.07]
Director Adam Green's homage to
old-school slasher films ended up with an R-rating from the MPAA, instead of
the dreaded NC-17 it was originally rumored to receive. Hatchet features
Kane Hodder in not one, but two roles in the film. The ultra-gory flick
sees Hodder back in action, slaying a group of folks on a boat tour in the
swamps of New Orleans. Featuring a slew of amazing onscreen deaths, there's a
great homage to the sleeping bag kill from The New Blood in there as
well. Don't miss this one, folks!
