Stiff Things: The Splatterporn Anthology Paperback – August 21, 2016

4.5 stars rounded up to 5.This is a great collection for fans of extreme horror with erotic undertones. It started with a helluva story from Brandon Ford and didn’t let up from there. From ghosts and demons to werewolves, this collection has a little of something for everyone. You won’t be disappointed. Some of the best stories were the contributions from Tanker Ray, Kristopher Triana, S.C. Hayden, Eric Larocca, and Shequila Rayne, though every story was amazing and unique in its own way, and I would be hard-pressed to pick a single favorite. This one is definitely worth a read!

I'm not always in the mood for sex in my reading. I hate it when it's misplaced in a horror book or if it doesn't contribute to the storyline. I was in the mood for some dirty reading, knew what I was getting myself into, and knew these stories would sexually be twisted. Then BAM. This book punches me in the face with some stuff that made my cheeks turn red from blushing. Lol. This one was fun. As with most anthologies, some stories are better than others. I actually skipped one of them after about 4 pages because it just wasnt for me. If you want some sex with your gore, you can't go wrong with this one.

These stories are of wildly varying quality, even though all are fairly explicit and violent. It's an interesting read but often the twists are over-telegraphed and shock a little thin.

[Note: This review applied to the Box Set STIFF SICK AND VILE but since it also includes STIFF THINGS, here ya go.]I read VILE & SICK THiNGS some years ago (my paperbacks were lost in an unfortunate conflagration involving an ex-lover, a pimp and a priest) and remember them vividly in my besotted memory and I will reread those bad boys soon but the STIFF THINGS book in this trilogy of sorts was all new to me, so keep that in mind, dead readers, er dear readers. What we have here is a compendium (if that's the right word) of extreme sick vile & very STIFF bunch of tale to curl your toes, moisten unmentionable parts and give you a queasy feeling where you might not want it. In other words, this box set is all it's CRACKED up to be. There's not a bad story in the bunch except that they're all BAD in the best way. Be warned, this is not for the casual reader or panties-in-a-twist reader but for the folks who actually understand and love hardcore sh*t, this is the wet stuff you get off on. The contributors ain't big-name dudes but they gots de chops to stand your hairs on end and test your gag reflex.No need to go into detail on the individual tales (don't you hate when they tell you too much), suffice it to say that this is crap you waon't read anywhere else but Comet Press (thier slogan being "Home Is Where The Hard Is"). [Barkeep! Another shot!] But all kidding aside, this is a good splatterporn read and if you don't have any blooming idea what what splatteporn is, then you probably don't want to subject your tender mind to this sort of stuff but for all you other sickies, this is don't one you want o pass up. And you will get some on you!

I don’t even know where to begin there is some really twisted stories in here that will leave you with your mouth hung open and brain saying there is no way I heard that right. This is horror at its finest leaving you no doubt there are some really twisted people out there and hoping praying you never meet them.  When the narrator posted he was looking for reviews “PM ME IF YOU DARE” he typed…okay you got my attention. I ask how you can you turn down a dare like that…NOT ME… I really didn’t have a clue what I just requested but it didn’t take me long to tell myself maybe we are in a little too deep here. From the start of the story there is no doubt this is hard core porn and I said to my self- self are you really going to listen to this. Self said a promise is a promise so yes we are. That lead me to looks of horror, thinking OH MY GOD that is nasty, really, wow didn’t see that coming, to shock as well as shaking in my shoes…okay maybe not the shaking part but I know I never want to meet any of these people. You have been warned…read on if you dare.Mr. Hempel my hats off to you for the outstanding narration of this book. I am sure you set with your legs crossed and hands over your lap a time or two as you worked your way through this story. I had no trouble at all feeling the excitement of each character at the build up for some thrilling exciting sex scenes. You even had me feeling sorry for mankind and wanting to pull a few people right out of the pages as they took on the pleasure and then the pain when the end was clear. I found his character voices to be wonderful you have no trouble knowing who is talking, or how much pleasure they are in along with how much pain they feel along with the excitement the deliver is feeling as they bring the pleasure and pain on. There were no background noise (if there had been I would most likely have jumped out of my car running for my life) nor any places where the volume was louder than any other place in the audio. What this narrator gives you is clean, crisp, clear audio that will leave you shaking your head. You have no trouble visualizing what he has just given you it is very vivid that you become so invested you might forget where you where you are and what you are doing. I really wish I could give more than 5 Stars the narration was outstanding.The first story starts out they are looking for some action as they have a few VERY HOT scenes with their selves. They finally found one to take up the call went home and got it on for everyone on the net as you yourself think oh and not in a good way. You think what are these people thinking and then you find out. As I was almost to work the audio left me speechless with my mouth hung open think no way that just happened. Yep Yep it did and lord they aren’t done. I had to set in my car listening until the end came still leaving me speechless. I have to honestly say this title fits the book in more ways than one. It will not be the first of these stories that will leave you speechless there are a few. Some I didn’t really care for it was a little hard to understand what the author was trying to show you but horror no doubt is in there. Others will leave you so shocked you won’t be able to talk leaving you looking straight ahead with eyes blinking afraid to face just what happened. Some are nasty beyond nasty and some will make you want to upchuck. This is one book that is filled with psychosexual horror that will leave men with their legs crossed and pulling back into their selves wishing they could run but to afraid to move. It will leave women shaking in horror wanting to run the other way. If you love horror and erotic take the dare and pick this up you will never see humans the same again. I know I am keeping an eye on those around me and I don’t think I will be making any new friends anytime soon. Lol This is just too horrible and to nasty but I bet it will stick with you for a long time. It’s not an audio for the weak there are some very vivid details that you won’t even have to close your eyes to see. I am still shaking my head. Words cannot do justice to some of these stories….Volunteered requested a copy from NetGalley/Edelweiss /book tour/author/publisher

This book is just some male porn. I can’t believe I fell for reviews.

Stiff Things is an Anthology filled with intense, Hardcore Horror that will penetrate your psyche. It will rape and violate your moral core leaving you saturated with blood and other body fluids; taking you into new depths of psychosexual horror. Ten stories from authors who know how to mind bend you, twist your little righteous self into a crazed, sexual maniac.I thoroughly enjoyed reading this Anthology. Like I said in the beginning, no story fell short for me. Everyone brought an erotic taste that stimulated every sense of my being. I highly recommend this book who love some deranged erotic horror.I'm spent, I need a cigarette
