Box of Schlock: Eighties Rewind

Next month I am celebrating some of the things that I loved during the eighties with my 1980's Rewind Edition of the Box of Schlock.

In August, I am throwing in all kinds of goodies, both new and vintage, from the 1980's.  Plus, as always, candy, snacks, and a Mystery Gift!

I am still working out details on how to make the Box of Schlock into a subscription based thing, but for the moment, you can still go to my site and pre-order one for $25 with free shipping.  It's a U.S. only affair, apologies England.

So far, I have found some cool still sealed trading cards and Garbage Pail Kids pins, which that in itself should be enough for anyone to grab a box.

All boxes ship on 8/18-8/21.  I don't make a huge profit, when all is said and done, but it does help pay the phone bill and art supplies, from time to time, and you get a cool box shipped to you with a ton of goodies.

Grab one or three at my store over at www.houseofschlock.com.  Supplies are limited, so once the first run is sold, that is it.  So, don't wait for too long, because there are some months when I sell out on the first week of any mention of a new Box of Schlock.

The Brice Kennedy Show Returns

There is something that I love about public access television. Maybe it's the can-do spirit or the insanity of most shows; a quick keyword search at YouTube will quickly show you what I'm talking about. All in all maybe it's just their fresh lemon scent. Whatever the reason, the kind of programming found on public access has a certain element that no large international multi-billion corporation can possess in their grubby sweaty hands.  Sadly, public access shows have become a dying breed, a mere step away from extinction, thanks in large part to the net, because why take your show on the airwaves when itself is staring at its demise, especially when you can go online for free and make a fool of yourself and be seen the world over? A idea which can turn very lucrative to some. Therefore its important, in a quasi-historical sense, to track down these shows and show them to future generations of kids what life was like before YouTube, Metube, Shetube, Hetube,...

The Most Amazing Toy Display You Will Ever Witness

God bless YouTube user sammyb7883 for uploading this glorious six minute and thirty for seconds of video of a He-Man toy display from 1986. Now what make this video go from cool to mind melting amazing, are two reasons; the first is that this display was handmade with some serious craftmanship and it is the He-Man Universe that we all wanted as a kids come to life!  Seriously, there is some model making skills that went into this.  I don't know who made this, if it was a team of people, or some guy from ILM on his day off.  Whoever worked on this, may the gods bless their children and their grandchildren. Okay, now comes the second reason as to why this whole thing is damn amazing; the diorama display uses a hologram technology to bring He-Man and and more to life!  I mean, you can seriously watch He-Man fight off the bad guys right before your eyes.  Now, this is all because thanks to a Pepper's Ghost Illusion.  The same thing that brings ghosts to lif...

The Monster Squad Now are Podcasting!

I have a top ten list if favorite movies from the 1980's that I often revisit and Monster Squad is very high up on that list.  Much like Ghostbusters and Gremlins, it is the perfect blend of horror, adventure, and comedy. Monster Squad, is like peanut butter and chocolate combined, it is a perfect blend of horror, adventure, and comedy.  There are only a few films that could pull that off.  It even has a line up of golden age classic monsters from the thirties to the fifties.  If you have not, you should watch it the movie just for that sole reason! So imagine my surprise and glee when I found out that two of the film's stars, Andre Gower and Ryan Lambert, are now hosting Squadcast; a podcast that is so far very Monster Squad centric.  It is like having an extended commentary track for the movie. Alright, enough gabbing.  Go here to download episodes or wherever you damn kids get your podcasts these days. Trailer:
