• Happy Halloween, folks! It hardly feels like it, maybe because things were so busy with Vulgarthon, or maybe because all the trick-or-treaters came around last Thursday in this area (anyone want an extra 50 or 60 candy bars that I’ve got left over?). Anyway, we usually like to do something fun with the site on Halloween usually since the both of us dig horror flicks so much, alas, this year due to the ‘thon activity it’s been tough to throw something together. Forgive us. Still, there’s bound to be some great movies on tonight around the pay channels…Oh, and DO NOT FORGET – The Simpsons will air a BRAND NEW TREEHOUSE OF HORRORS (some of the most classic episodes are the Halloween shows) TOMORROW NIGHT (That’s Wednesday) on FOX. Check your local listings and do not miss this one. And speaking of Fox shows, I hate to ask this, but if anyone taped Boston Public and Ally Mcbeal on Monday night, I stupidly forgot to set the VCR timer and was at the ‘thon at the time, so sadly missed them. Drop me a line, I’d be happy to reimburse for tape and postage costs.

On to a few other things – The update last night made it over to Aint It Cool News, and we thank them very much for the plug. It’s great when things we do here get picked up elsewhere on the web, as it brings in some new fans, or even some existing ones who never knew that the site was around. So thanks to Harry and everyone else over there for that. We only wish ourstory was a bit cleaner (though at 1:30 AM after 14 hours of movies it’s kinda tough to write). We neglected to mention that Clerks star Marilyn Ghigliotti will NOT return in VA5. We’ve added that tidbit and cleaned up the story a bit below, so take a look for that, especially if you missed the original posting.

The Vulgarthon wrapup’s coming, along with lots, lots more, so stay tuned. For now, enjoy your Halloween. Here’s a small treat in the meantime: Some non Vulgarthon related newsbites to tide you over:
