Sounds like some real awards, unlike that 'Reaper Awards' bullshit that gave awards to things that aren't even out yet.

'Most Anticipated...' Fuck you!!

I had class the night of the Reaper awards and didn't go.

But seriously, I can see Adam Green and Joe Lynch get their dicks sucked by Dread Central anyday of the week out here, so why make the trek out to the show to see it?

I mean that with all love towards Adam, Joe, and Dread Central, of course.
