Help Save Japan For the Price of a DVD!

Dear Horror Fans, Fellow Bloggers, and Anyone Who Might Have Stumbled Upon This page:

As you are aware, Japan was recently devastated by  an 8.9-magnitude earthquake and a catastrophic tsunami, as well as several jarring aftershocks.  In the wake of this, there is also a very good chance of several of Japan's nuclear power plants  going into melt down mode. 

Thousands are dead, and hundreds of thousands are injured, homeless and in dire need of help. 

And that's where you come in, gentle reader.

Today, I am asking you, horror movie fans, to make a small sacrifice.  Today, I am asking you to lay out what you might pay for a DVD - nine dollars and ninety nine cents - and make a donation to the Red Cross.

Simply click on Godzilla above and you will be taken to the Red Cross page for Japan.  From there, you can make your pledge and know that you've done something decent.   

And, hey, if you don't have 9.99 - send what you can!  Or if you are feeling extremely benevolent, send more!  It's all up to you. 

Thanks so much,

Pax Romano

Real Horror, and What You Can Do About It.

 

 As many of you are aware, Haiti suffered from a devastating earth quake yesterday, thousands are feared dead, and many have been injured by the quake that registered 7.0 on the Richter scale.

So why am I posting this on a blog about horror films?  Because I thought it might be a good idea if we all took a second from our busy lives and spared a thought about how we might help an already impoverished nation, dig itself out of a horror that is much more terrifying than anything dreamt up for the silver screen.

Remember that money you were going to drop on the blu ray editon  of Rob Zombie's H2?  Maybe it's time to forgo the dubious pleasure of yet another purchase that will only end up shoved in a book case and forgotten in a few months.

Dig into your pockets today and spend some money on something that really counts.  You can donate to any of the following agencies (Doctors Without Borders is my personal favorite) and designate that your funds go to the Haitian Relief Fund.  And when you are all through, you can celebrate the fact that you actually did something worthwhile. 

Come on, Horror Movie Fans, let's do it! (CLICK ON ANY LINK TO MAKE A DONATION)
