Monster Madness 10 – Announcement
This year’s Monster Madness will be the 10th and the final marathon to include 31 movie reviews.
Here are the many projects that can benefit from this: …
-Bring back “You Know What’s Bullshit” or more AVGN
-Review more movies, spread throughout the year, rather than cramming 31 into October.
-Work on fresh new projects, ones that are in my head, that no one even knows about.
-Make an original horror film!
I will never stop reviewing horror films.
Halloween will always be celebrated on Cinemassacre.
There could even be a Mini-Monster Madness. The name will live on.
It’s always been one of my favorite things I do, but in recent years, I have been stretching to fit 31 reviews. Finding the right movies is becoming a longer process. Completing 31 reviews takes several months.
It’s fitting to end this format at 10 years. After all, Monster Madness has lasted longer than TNT’s MonsterVISION. #retro #retrogaming #nes #snes #jamesrolfe #mikematei #atari #playthrough #gameplay #gamereview

Anyone else still miss monster madness? But I understand why James decided to end it as a 31 movie marathon

Damn, I didn't know you reviewed horror movies too! I've been missing out. Please review Bucket of Blood (1959) if you haven't already. That should give you some good material.

I'm willing to sacrifice some things, like monster madness, for an original movie. I will definitely miss MM, but like yourself I really want to see something fresh. The original movie is honestly the most interesting and right when you said it my heart started pumping with excitement. It's time to see what the critic can do! Show us your best movie! And I'm talking about James, not The Nerd!

Downgrading to 2 a week (Monday and Friday) would be perfectly fine with me!

You should consider a co-host and maybe do every other week switching between your review and then the other's. I nominate Night Mind for such a position!

Considering the passing of Herschel Gordon Lewis, you going to review a movie of his this year?

It's a shame this is going to be the last one. It would be awesome if ya take a look and review the asian horror movies such as Sweet Home, the 80s remake and the original

The fact that you write, record, and edit 31 reviews to be ready for every October is amazing to me. Thanks for all your work James!

James, you taught me that film really can be an art. Monster Madness made me into the horror lover I am, and I will forever be grateful to you for it.

James, thanks for all the entertainment. Most of us fans don't realize the time and effort it takes to produce videos and projects. Is not just watch the movie play a game etc. and shoot out a video I believe that there is a standard that must be followed as the channel grows. The standard must be kept to maintain the quality of the content shown to us viewers. We all must realize that were all humans with our own lives and so are you. Time management is essential and as you said, that it will open the door to other new projects! We appreciate that you care for the fans James. Thank you.

I look forward to monster madness every year!!!!!! I understand ending it do to the time constraint and how much is involved in the process but at lest do a 1-2 day mini monster madness a year! Keep the tradition alive on a smaller scale.
