Gates of Gore's Independent Horror Reviews

I am very happy to share the new Gates of Gore promotional banner for 2018.

In the biggest announcement that I will be making since starting Gates of Gore, I am very pleased to announce that Mitch Penman has officially been confirmed as my new agent. I have never been so excited about anything as I am about this. Mitch's support and encouragement keeps me going, even when I have wanted to give it up. I don't know what I would ever do without him and there is no one better with this new job. We are a force to be reckoned with and there are so many projects that we will be working on together. In other news, I have begun writing a new script called Belly of the Beast. I will keep everyone updated with more info about this soon. Also, I will be writing some new reviews in a month, so be on the lookout for those. Gates of Gore is back in full force, baby.....

That's right all you Gates of Gore supporters, it's that time of year again. Fall has arrived and Halloween will be approaching us soon. For the entire month of October, I will be having the ultimate horror movie marathon. I haven't decided what this marathon will entail yet, but it will be fun to find out and by the end of the marathon, I will post an update with the full list of horror movies that was watched, so stay tuned and while I'm here, please join me on this fun venture. LET THE GORE FLOW!!!!!

2017 will bring a new direction to Gates of Gore. For the first time, Mitch Penman and myself will be tackling our very first comedy entitled THRASHERS. THRASHERS : The year is 1985 and 4 high school buddies Robbie, Seth, Mitch and Jamey are about to go on the wildest adventure of their lives as they travel out of state to attend their very first thrash metal concert. Overbearing parents, car chases, mad dogs, hot babes...nothing will stop these metalheads from having the ultimate headbanging experience. We are very excited to bring you all something a little different, so get ready to bang your head.  Stay tuned for more updates....

I am very pleased to announce that myself and Mitch Penman have a new label for all horror scripts with a metal theme. That new label is called Toxik Deth Presents.
