Is this the creepiest radio show ever? Many of the horror writers—King, Matheson, Bradbury—share the experience of being traumatized by the 25-minute “The Thing on the Fourble Board.”
On Halloween this year I was tooling around Los Angeles listening to the Radio Classics channel on XM (XM 082) and they had an all-day horror marathon going on. They played episodes of Quiet, Please and Lights Out and The Whistler and, of course, Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds broadcast.

10 of the most memorable weapons from the movies From Chigurh's creepy farm equipment to one groovy chainsaw arm.
When it comes to many movies, a simple six-shooter just won’t do. Through the years, there have been plenty uniquely destructive weapons to grace the big screen. Below are eleven of the most memorable. Captive Bolt Pistol – No Country For Old Men Watch this video on YouTube The creepy intrigue of Javier Bardem’s character (Anton Chigurh) is amplified a thousand-fold by his choice of weaponry. While most killers might find a captive bolt pistol (typically used to stun cows before slaughter) to be too much of a pain to carry around, Anton found it to be incredibly efficient.
