Users will be able to post their videos to the site for free.

They are opening up avenues for horror aficionados and those who want to learn more about the genre, and all can gather in their forum, SARCOPHAGUS, to discuss different topics about the horror genre. You can discuss projects and get tips from others who work in the horror industry.

The HBA Takes A Stab At: Jonah Hex!

Hey kiddies! Jonah Hex makes his way down a dusty path to the big screen this Friday, and even though it isn't necessarily a horror film, it's close enough. There is violence, revenge, and even some supernatural elements, so why not give the HBA a chance to take a stab at it? Send in your links to horrorbloggeralliance@hotmail.com, or if you are just too busy for all that, then leave a comment and we shall add your link for all to see. Unfortunately, we didn't get very many links sent in for Splice, and I know a lot of you saw it, so send them in people so we can all read them! If not, I'll hold my breath until you do. Or when I need to breath again…which ever comes first.

Terror Titans: Well...that hombre LOOKS like Jonah Hex!

Porkheads Horror Review Hole: Since when did Two-Face wear a stetson? JONAH HEX  

when is evil cool? 9 points about: the Jonah Hex movie.
