THE BARON'S WEB CRYPT

Yes it's true Ghouls, Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt has been cancelled by BlipTV. After two years and 4 seasons, BlipTV decided that my show was not the type of show for their format. So, The Movie Crypt will be cancelled and deleted by BlipTV June 15th. However, I decide when the last episode is, not them. And I say May 31st will be the final episode on BlipTV. The series will end on BlipTV with The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Now I could go on and on with spiteful things to say. Call them names. Besmirch them every which way. And I would be justified in doing so. But I my friends, am better than that.

It has been a wonderful time being able to entertain all of you. We have had many great memories. So much fun. But all good things must come too end. Or do they???

On BlipTV, yes they must come to end, but not The Movie Crypt. Because on June 7th Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt will return to You Tube with the film Things to Come. Ironic that should be the title of the return movie on You Tube huh?

That's right Ghouls, after nearly 3 1/2 seasons, The Movie Crypt will return to the one place that once wrongfully removed the season one finale, Freaks. The site will be the same (http://www.youtube.com/baronsmoviecrypt). Hey, the season one episodes are even still there (minus one of them). So join me as I make the big movie back, June 7th.


Also, May 13th marks the Two Year Anniversary of Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt. And to celebrate, I will be showing the Edward Furlong and Frank Langella Horror/Sci-Fi film, Brainscan. So join me this Monday the 13th for Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt 2 Year Anniversary Special.

Stay cool Ghouls.

Its seems I've been posting nothing but sad news as of late.

I know this one is a few days late, but the word recently lost two great comedians. First, the other day we lost the legendary and always fantastic comedian, Jonathan Winters. Winters, probably best known as Mork & Mindy's "little" one on the hit television sereis, Mork & Mindy, staring Robin Williams. Winters a major influence on Robin Williams. Jonathan was known for his always improve talent, something I learned from him as well as Robin Williams, and because of this, would always keep everyone in stiches with laughter.

I'm also sadden to learn this morning that a good friend, Nick Pollotta, a famous writer (books such as Bureau 13, That Darn Squid God,  Doomsday Exam, Sky Hammer, and countless more) has passed away as well. Nick originally contacted me to advertise books on occasion on The Movie Crypt. It was through this and the fact that we're both from Chicago that we remained in contact and discussed many jokes and stories.

Once a stand-up comedian, Nick married and lived with his wife Mellisa in Chicago, Illinois. Nick passed away early Saturday leaving behind a legacy of laughs and good times. A caring man who was suffering from kidney problems and remaind strong and hopeful all the way through and never gave up hope. An inspiration, I shall follow in his foot steps in trying to be as strong during any tough situation. Thank you Nick.

Next Friday's episode, which will feature the film, The Hands of a Stranger, will be dedicated to Nick with a few of my favorite skits of his. So I hope you join me this Friday for a special  Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt.

Also tonight, The Vortexx will also be honoring the memory of Nick Pollotta, so tune in to The Vortexx at 9 (ET) at www.horrorhost.net.

Stay cool Nick, you crazy Ghoul.

We lost another treasure this week. Annette Funicello, one of the very first Mouseketeers on the Mickey Mouse Club, has passed away at 70. Many remember Annette as the smiling ever so adorable Mouseketeer, but some remember her as Frankie Avalon's "beach bunny" in many Beach Party movies in the 60's. She passed away from her battle with complications due to multiple sclerosis, something she has been battling for 25 years. She will be missed, but she always be loved by her fans.

Some good news amongst all these tragedies, I want to congratulate Svengoolie on his second Rondo award. If anyone deserves it, it's Sven. Here's to another great year of Svengoolie and to even more classic moments. Congrats sir.

Stay cool Ghouls.

For those not in the know, Roger Ebert was a film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times. He would later team up with fellow film critic, Gene Siskel to form the very popular movie review show, Sneak Previews, which would later be titles, At the Movies. The two would for the most part, disagree with the films, one giving his reasons why the movie was and the other why he thought the movie was bad. At times they would both agree a movie was either good or bad, but most of the time a friendly argument would occur and they would movie on. At the end of the show, Roger and Gene would give their signature thumbs up if they liked a movie or a thumbs down if they disliked a movie. The series lasted well after Gene Siskel passed away, teaming Roger Ebert with a variety of different film critics, the most famous team-up being, Richard Roeper.

The series officially ended in 2010 without Ebert, who had been fighting cancer since 2002. Ebert passed away yesterday and the World lost one of it's greatest and most important film critics. Though I would lean more towards Gene Siskel, I still had a huge amount of respect for Ebert and his views. He was good at enraging movie fans, but I know many respected him and his views just for the simple fact that he wouldn't back down. He knew movies and knew what he liked and didn't like and no one was going to tell him any different.

The Movie Crypt and yours truly would like to send out their deepest sympathies to the Ebert family. But we can all smile knowing that Siskel and Ebert live on once again where ever he and friend Siskel are at and that the balcony is once again open to them.

Stay cool forever Siskel and Ebert.

This Friday is coming fast. And I personally can't wait. I have been asked a few times if this will be the last season however, and I can assure you it is not. I have a great 4th and 5th season planned. I promise these next two seasons will be filled full of terribly great classics. And so many great special events too. Like this season will bring you my 2 Year Anniversary Special. Next season of course will bring you our annual Halloween and Christmas Specials, plus a major landmark for yours truly, my 100th episode. So believe me when I ssay that this is not going ot be the last season. Not when we're still having so much fun.

I will be announcing when you can see the new Evil Dead with me this weekend soon. And when I say soon, I mean tomorrow.

Until then,

Stay Cool Ghouls.

This Friday makes the return of The Movie Crypt friends, and of course this brings the return of my Daily Blaaaahgs.

The movie? The Rats Are Coming! The Werewolves Are Here! An incredible addball movie (I thought anyway) and more than worthy to be the first movie of the fourth saeson. So make sure you tune in this Friday for an all new episode of Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt.

This will be a huge season for movies. Atom Age Vampire, I Eat Your Skin, Flash Gordon: The Greatest Adventure of All, It's Alive, and these are just a few of the movies coming your way this season. Plus the return of Grimm and Zombie. The Two Year Anniversary Special featuring Brainscan starring Edward Furlong and Frank Langella. This is going to be a great follow-up to last season.

And I have a few appearances coming up, one of which will be at a viewing of The Evil Dead reamke this month. Stay tuned to learn where and when and how you can join me. Until then,

Stay Cool Ghouls.

A decision has been made Ghouls. Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt will return for a fourth season. There had been much speculation on weather this would happen, but after the numbers recieved for this current season, how could I not return.

And the hits will just keep right on coming. Some awesome movies will be coming your way. Movies like: Atom Age Vampire, I Eat Your Skin, It's Alive, Attack From Space, all of these and so many more. Plus next season will be my 2 Year Anniversary. Wait to see what I have planned for that.

So with only 6 episodes left of this season, you will only have to wait until April for the 4th season to begin.

With this said, I just want to say thank you to all of you for such a great season. Look forward to entertaining all of you again soon.

Stay cool Ghouls.

Thats right Ghouls. The Daily Blaaaahgs will return next Monday. So take note and see you then.

Stay cool Ghouls.

Hey there Ghouls! Baron Von Ghoulstein here. I know there hasn't been any blogs for the last few weeks. I' have working on the site and toying with some options and new toys. I will be poting again daily very soon.

I hope everyone has themselves a very safe and Happy New Year.

Stay cool Ghouls.

I know it's been a long time Ghouls. It's been one of those things where my "other" job just got in the way. But here I am and with good, maybe even great news.

I'm just going to say it, beginning this Wednesday, there will be a new place where you will be able to catch Baron Von Ghoulstein's Movie Crypt. It's a little place called, The Vortexx. Does that name sound cool or what? The Vortexx is home to classic B-Movies, Horror Hosts and original programming that is just incredible. I even watched an original rendition of Dracula last week. Incredible. So tune in this Wednesday night at 8cst (9 est) to The Vortexx. You can find the official site here: http://www.horrorhost.net/ and the official channel here: www.livestream.com/thevortexx. The movie that will be shown will be last seasons classic, The Terror, starring Boris Karloff and Jack Nicholson. So make sure you tune in and help support a terrific Horror channel.

Now I know this seems to be a regular thing. One minute I'm on BlipTV, then You Tube, then both BlipTV and You Tube, and now just BlipTV. And now I'm adding The Vortexx. Ghouls I promise you that The Movie Crypt will continue to be shown regularly on BlipTV with new episodes every week. The Vortexx is a great place for those who haven't heard of the show to experience it anew. And there is nothing wrong with more exposure, especially since BlipTV refuses to showcase yours truly in their search engine for other people to find me.

So I'm hoping you will welcome The Vortexx and all of it's fans and join in on all of the fun with not only My show, but their other great programming as well.

Stay cool Ghouls.
