This Freddy Krueger Mask is a Collectible…and Only $999!
Usually when you buy a Halloween mask, it’s worn before being tossed sloppily into a drawer or closet until next October. Finally, someone is realizing that there’s a way to add value to the item that should be proudly displayed throughout the year. Well, a new Freddy Krueger mask it being marketed in such a way, and with Halloween only a few weeks away now is the perfect time to pick one up*.
This handmade “Freddy Collector’s Mask” is designed by professional Hollywood makeup artists and crafted from stretched silicon; “this fine detailed mask of Freddy’s scorched face has a flexible mesh core that resists tearing while inspiring plenty of screams.
“No more loose masks, or hours and hours of meticulous makeup… just slip on this exclusive mask and you’ll instantly feel the power of Freddy’s iconic visage. If people run from you, don’t worry… that’s the desired effect! It’s an impressive mask made of movie magic and classic craftsmanship. Don’t miss out on your chance to truly become Wes Craven’s horror masterpiece icon with this replica Freddy Krueger mask.”
*The only issue? It carries a ridiculous retail price of $999. Check it out here with a video to boot. The only way this would be worth $999, at least to this writer, is if Robert Englund sneezed inside of it, signed it, and then hand delivered it to my house.

Before updating the video nasty Faces of Death, director Daniel Goldhaber and writer Isa Mazzei explored the dangers of online life in tech-thriller Cam, their feature debut that was acquired by Netflix in 2018 after making waves on the festival circuit.
At the end of last year, the Netflix exclusive quietly departed from the streaming platform, left without another streaming home.
It’s not an isolated story; Mike Flanagan’s Hush also left streaming entirely for a period until it was finally picked up on both physical media and other streaming services.
While the tech-thriller currently isn’t available to watch on Netflix, Tubi, Hulu, or any other platforms, that’s not a problem for Cam thanks to a very cool move by Goldhaber: the director has made his breakout film accessible to watch online for free via his website.
As his site notes: “CAM is unfortunately not currently available to view on any platforms, so you can watch it here if you like :).“
No subscriptions or fees necessary, just hit play.
Cam follows Alice (Madeline Brewer), who works as an online cam girl obsessed with her ranking on the cam site. The higher her ranking goes, the more it draws unwanted attention, and Alice soon finds herself replaced on her own show with a doppelganger.
Written by Mazzei, a former camgirl, it uses the horror thriller premise to examine the life of a sex worker; Alice’s career ambition is directly at odds with the shame it brings to her family, and how she tries to spare them from it by keeping them in the dark. It only compounds her danger when the doppelganger enters the equation in Goldhaber’s engaging thriller.
For a deep dive into the treacherous world of Cam, listen to Horror Queers’ episode on it now.
