Somehow it’s fitting that the 100th ‘issue’ of the Weekly Slaughter would be falling on the very week of Halloween. Since it is the holiday in which the whole year revolves around, we do have one theatrical release with THE HAUNTING OF MOLLY HARTLEY, and a galla of DVD features. Namely, ZOMBIE STRIPPERS, PIECES, SHIVER, and DEVIL HUNT. Great week to be a horror fan, even better now that Halloween is finally upon us once again this year. Have fun, be safe, and have a Happy Halloween!
