Like all Nerd Block subscriptions, you'll get a booklet detailing the items in your box along with stories and interviews.
Scream Pin - Value $5?
While it's not always a guaranteed item - you can pretty much expect a pin in your box. This month's pin features one of the most famous lines from Scream. Poor Drew Barrymore.
Nosferatu Shirt - Value $15?
Each month, you'll get an exclusive shirt - this month's shirt features Nosferatu. I never really noticed how close of a match Nosferatu is to the main monster in The Strain.
Court of the Dead Book - Value $15-20?
You'll get a 40-poster book featuring Court of the Dead.
I really no nothing about Court of the Dead other than the fact that it's on Sideshow's site all the time - and I love me some Sideshow statues!
Each poster is 10x8 inches and printed on a nice cardstock.
Speaking of which, you'll get a $25 off coupon to Sideshow.
Evil Dead Ash Figure - Value $5?
You'll get a tiny little Ash figure to go along with the Evil Dead 2 board game.
Here's a look at the board game, too! This will be a cool item from Evil Dead board game fans!
Puppet Master 3 DVD - Value $6 on Amazon
There are 2 DVDs this month - the first is Puppet Master 3.
I've seen the first movie - but never made it to #3 - and it sounds a bit crazy:
After hearing that Andre Toulon's puppets have no strings but rather seem to have a life of their own., Dr. Hess, a Gestapo henchman during World War II, sends the Gestapo to the theatre to kidnap them . During the melee, Toulon's wife ELSA is killed and Toulon is whisked away by the Nazis. However, on the way to headquarters the puppets attack the Gestapo and escape with Toulon. Now Toulon begins to plan his revenge. He creates a new puppet, Six Shooter, models Blade after a pasty-faced Nazi and uses Elsa's essence to create Leech Woman, Now Toulon's army is ready to get even and take revenge.
In The House Of Flies DVD - Value $8 on Amazon
The second movie is In the House of Flies from 2012.
Here's a bit about it from Amazon - the reviews are not very positive for this one:
June 1988... Summer Was Never The Same. In the House of Flies tells the story of young lovers whose lives are inadvertently changed forever. An innocent couple, Heather (Lindsay Smith) and Steve (Ryan Kotack) suddenly find themselves abducted. By whom? For what purpose? Alone, isolated and locked in an undisclosed suburban basement, Heather and Steve find themselves pawns in a mad man's mind game.
Rue Morgue – $9.95
As always, they include an issue of Rue Morgue. If you’re a fan or Rue Morgue, then you really win out on this subscription because it covers the cost of shipping to the US. This month features a look at American Gods!
Verdict: Most items were misses for me this month - they just weren't from franchises that I follow, and if they are (Evil Dead) it was for an interest that I don't participate in (board games). So, with all of that said, this month was a miss for me - but I'm curious of what you think!
