Friday The 13th T-Shirt - Value $10?
This month's exclusive shirt includes one of horror's most iconic characters - Jason. I'm loving this shirt, and I love the inclusion of Camp Crystal Lake with Jason watching over it. This is one of their best shirts to date.
Child's Play Chucky Plush - Value $20
I was surprised to see the price on Amazon and positive reviews on this plush. For me, a lot of the plushes have been misses from Nerd Blocks lately, and this one is a miss as well. Overall, it just looks and feels cheaply done to me.
Summoner's Mouse Pad - Value $5-10?
One of the exclusives this month is a Quija Board mouse pad. It's been a long long time since I've used on of these things, but my only memories are always of everyone involved saying "I'm not moving it!?!?!"
Dario Argento's Dracula DVD - Value $11.99
The inclusion of a DVD in Horror Blocks continue with the inclusion of Dario Argento's Dracula. This one is getting middle-of-the-road reviews - I've never been a big Dracula fan, so this one may be a swap item.
Rue Morgue's Cryptic Collectibles - Value $14.95
This is a great collection of awesome horror collectibles. Subscription boxes definitely has me back into collectibles, so this is right up my alley.
Here's a quick look inside.
They're Coming To Get You Print - Value $10?
A print was including this month, and it includes some of horror's notorious undead. Oh poor poor Sophia. After seeing her in this print, I can't not hear Daryl yelling 'Sooooppphia!' in, basically, all of season two of The Walking Dead. This is printed on heavy card stock and ready for framing.
Verdict: This month's Horror Block was just ok for me. I actually really like the shirt and the collectibles book, but the plush knocks it down a couple of notches, for me. This plush is in the category of the Slimer plush, it's just odd looking - while I really liked the BB-8 plush that seemed much more professionally done. I also had hoped that there would be a shout out to one of horror's greatest, Wes Craven, who passed in August - but nothing in the past two months. It seems only natural for a horror box to send something of his work.
