As the holidays approach you may occasionally find yourself at a loss for what to get you favorite horror fan. Horror has fallen prey to bad ratings decisions of late, and bad demographic targeting, so even the old standby of getting someone that perfect DVD has become tougher and tougher (although The Arrow’s Top 10 of 2008 will definitely give you good guidance).
Plus, unless you’ve managed to pawn a tapestry that your great aunt left you after having Antiques Roadshow tell you it’s worth a half mil, then cash might be too tight to go looking at anything truly stratospheric like a date with Tiffany Shepis, or a Bruce Campbell experience involving more beers than undead.
So here’s a list of gift ideas to help you out. Ranging from quirky to awesome, expensive-ish to cheaparoo, there’s a little something here for everyone. And if you’ve got other ideas then spit bullets with links to let your fellow arrowheads in on your knowledge.
Want a t-shirt that will send chills down the spine of any true genre fan? Well here’s your motherf*cker. This is one sweet, sweet reminder of the fact that while remakes as a general rule have been horrible, it is possible for a remake to kick ass, take names and cause the right kind of nightmares. Thanks John Carpenter, you grumpy sunuvabitch!

There are so many great scenes from SHAUN OF THE DEAD that it’s hard to pick a favorite. That’s why having an action figure that features 30+ points of articulation is a special kind of perfect. Don’t worry, it’s not as dirty as it sounds. Just know you can equip Shaun with a Cricket bat and have at whatever you want to have at.
A hint for any ladies wishing to court The Arrow. This would be a very good gift. Trust me. For the rest of us it’d be pretty damn cool too. I personally think wearing it rally cap style is probably the way to go so that you can freak out anybody trying to get the jump on you, but no matter how you wear it this is one of the coolest pieces of F13 stuff I’ve seen.

Wow. Just f*cking wow! Are you serious? A Brundlefly keepsake of any type is going to rock no matter what, but a statue with this level of gooey detail and the ability to use those creepy eyes to scare off one-night stands that next morning. What an amazing synthesis of form and function. Genius!
Wood rises simply at the thought of this amazing craftsmanship as a gift. Can you just imagine opening a box and discovering you own a handcrafted Krueger glove? Better hope it’s wrapped in tissues ’cause you’re probably going to need them, and not for tears wink, wink. Besides, you know Robert Englund would approve.
