I wouldn't be able to pick which age I was, but it was young, my earliest memory of a horror movie as a kid that gave me the shits was called The Gate. I struggled to ever sit through it, took me years to finally see it from start to finish, looking back on it now I wonder why I was so freaked about it, obviously its meant to scare little kids haha. its one of my favorite movies now as it gave me that scar as a kid. I own both of the movies in my dvd collection and I've sampled them in my music a couple times.
2- What attracted you to horror initially?
2- What attracted you to horror initially?
horror movies = because it was so restricted for me to see as a kid, I can't stand not knowing whats in the box. The cheap adrenalin thrill you get never gets old.
3- What is your favorite horror film new and old?
Old = Tremors 1 & 2... New = Cloverfield
4- Do you have a favorite subgenre like Slasher, Zombies, B-movie, etc…?

5- Are there any films or subgenres you really do not like?

I don't watch many B-grade movies, some of them are alright but a lot of them piss me off.

Adam Chaplin, probably one of the most epic gore flicks i've seen since Braindead. really amazing scenery too.

8- What’s your favorite Horror themed video game?
8- What’s your favorite Horror themed video game?
Resident Evil has always been a game I ocassionally play. I don't play games much, I go through phases of thrashing it out for weeks then leaving it alone for months.
9- Are you a fan of the Horror remakes or do you think they should just leave what’s not broken the way it is?

I always like to see more in remakes, saying they reuin the original is just a stuipid excuse, because I always like to see what else they can do with the topic. Like "Nightmare on Elm St"... Sure Robert Englund is the best freddy, but the new movie was still epic. I love prequels as well, "The Thing" has got to be a highlight for me at the moment... just how they connected so many dots to the original was amazing. Really looking forward to the "Evil Dead" remake as well.
10- If you were cast in a horror movie and could choose any role for yourself, would you be The Victim, The Bad Guy, or the Hero? And why?

KidCrusher has always played so many roles in my music, I can never make my mind up which side he's on... he would probably make a better bad guy, but he's often killing bad guys too, so a bit of everything.
11- (The Classics) Who would you invite to your birthday party first Jason, Freddy, or Michael or Other?

Always been a fan of Jason, but i highly doubt any of them would be interested in celebrating a birthday. maybe a deathday?
12- (Newer) Who would you invite to your birthday party first Victor Crowley, The Orphan Killer, Stitches The Clown, or Other?

I've been working on a short music video movie for my upcoming album Metal Murder 3D,, its not as long as I wanted it to be, but it was fun as hell to make. Not sure when its dropping yet, but hopefully before the end of the year.
Bonus Question
Are there any Australian Horror movie's that stand out in your mind, that we may have missed over here in North America?
