Horror, comedy, and mortality came together with great effect in the first season of 20 Seconds to Live, Ben Rock's innovative web series, and now an Indiegogo campaign has been launched for the second season, and you can also watch a new episode. In today's Horror Highlights, we also have the latest episode of the Splathouse podcast and a trailer and poster for the new thriller The Answer.
20 Seconds to Live Season 2 Indiegogo Campaign: "20 Seconds To Live” is the award-winning horror/comedy web series for people who hate happy endings! We made and released our 8-episode first season, and last year played over a dozen international film and web festivals. Now we'd love to make a second season but we need your help!"

Listen to a New Episode of the Splathouse Podcast: From Splathouse: "Before you plop down that fresh dollar bill for some fresh krill and dill from your local deli, let us give you a fresh thrill with the totally brill, FRESH KILL (1988).
This week on The SPLATHOUSE Podcast we watched Joseph Merhi's shot-on-video "horror" (???) actioner starring the late, GREAT (as in physical stature *and* possessing plucky artistic chops) Robert Z'Dar. It's about butcher shopping, drug running, helicopter flying, diamond ring hustling, cocaine destroying monsters and a half-baked TRUE ROMANCE-style love story. This movie has everything***! (***except sound)
It's available on Amazon Prime thanks to Troma and once you discover this forgotten treasure you'll want to thank us***! (***with a STRONGLY worded email cc'd to the entire SPLATHOUSE crew)
Back this week for recs (and post-FRESH KILL therapy) is Sarah Jane of Talk Film Society! This time however, Sarah tests her marriage and enlists hubbs Eric assistance with FRESH KILL duties (doodies?)
It's a chuckle fuck episode, with the crew cutting loose before our next SplatCast and The SPLATHOUSE's season 1 finale episode: THE MUTILATOR."

Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.
When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
