Trashy dance music leads to D&D spoof
I know these things are kind of a dime a dozen, but they did a pretty good job here...
(and they had to use a D6 instead of a D20 to fit the song's cadence, cut 'em some slack!)
Original video for reference!

The new Dungeons and Dragons Red Box Advert
...is FUCKING METAL!!!
I was watching a show I refuse to admit to watching on Hulu just now and saw an advert for the Dungeons and Dragons red box... and totally had to share.

ALSO not Halloween related, but...
Got the new trailer here for the Warhammer 40K CGI movie. Crank up the volume for it. I wish the animation was a touch better, especially the mouth animation, but turning up the volume paves over some of the defects and makes you want to burn some Chaos Daemons.
Random awesome music from INCEPTION
Though Hans Zimmer did the film's score, it was relative no-name, Zack Hemsey, who contributed this memorable piece for the trailer.
Turn up ya speakers.

Hey Randy
This is the song we were talking about the other day from that particular scene on Breaking Bad that involves the foil balloons. I was mentioning that the band is actually Brazilian, and we talked about how that was probably intentional?
Well anyways, here's the song/video. The band uses A LOT of native tribal influences, especially when it comes to the percussion. This song in particular is hugely native tribal percussion in it's structure and arrangement. I know you're not one for the metal, but I really do suggest you listen to the first full minute before giving up on it.
Also, the video is all stop motion puppetry by the same chick that won a ton of awards doing stop motion puppetry videos for Tool. It's a super cool video even if you don't dig on the music, and you oughta at least watch it even if you have to mute the music :P
(as a bonus, there's a giant skull with a tongue made out of a creepy baby head bouquet at 2:50)
Sepultura: Ratamahatta
(if you hover over the vid while playing, you can downgrade from HD to SD if that helps on slower computers)

Old school D&D commercial
It's awesomely cheesy, but I imagine if I'd watched it as a kid it would have looked like the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
Ultra-testosterone trailer for The Expendables
I wish I believed this movie could be good. Whatever the case, this anti-chick-flick trailer is pretty entertaining:
ZOMG! I'm totally freaking out this so ridiculous awesome imma lose my shit gotta play this now lucasarts can have my soul for this game or how about a two year old I have a two year old son you can have for this game can I play it now?
I will be playing this.
The vid is worth playing in 720p in full screen if your computer can handle it. Not sure why it's titled 1080p since youtube doesn't even do 1080p.
The greatest video game never made:
Even though this sprite-animated cartoon looks just like you're watching a video game, I recommend watching it all the way through. It's like underground video game psychedelia! Features guest appearance by Christopher Walken and John Goodman from The Big Lebowski!
Oh, and if you type "Paul Robertson" into YouTube you'll get all kinds of other freaky stuff he's done.

Clash of the Titans trailer
I'd forgotten they were even doing a remake, but lo, it has come! Accompanied by some seriously cheesy hair metal...
The Sorcerer's Apprentice
While not horror in modern sense, the story behind the Fantasia animation (which visualized a symphony inspired by a poem inspired by a Greek story from nearly 2000 years ago) definitely takes on the form of a nightmare with which most everyone's familiar: being in over your head as a situation spirals out of control. Listen to the amazing music and see if you don't find yourself identifying rather eerily with one Mickey Mouse...NOTES:
*The sorcerer's name is never given in the wordless piece, but the Disney animators nicknamed him "Yen Sid" (read it backwards). Apparently he's in Kingdom Hearts II, and he's supposed to be the creator of the world of Oswald the Rabbit in Epic Mickey.
*Here's an English translation of Goethe's poem, which mirrors the Fantasia short right down to chopping up the brooms.
*One favorite scene: Mickey's extremely violent axe-chopping around 5:30
*The immediate follow-through, where the brooms resurrect is also pretty amazing. Almost zombie-like!
