On that note, I am back at it today. I’m here championing a sci-fi effort from 2014 that has gone largely unseen by

Another month means fresh additions to Netflix. Although there aren’t many new horror titles this month, there are still some notable movies well worth your time. For instance, you can watch Karen Black try to land a 747 jet in Airport 1979, or Casper Van Dien kill giant insects in Paul Verhoeven’s bloody sci-fi opus

Recent comments from producer Jason Blum suggested that a retool was in order when last year’s The Exorcist: Believer wasn’t as successful as Blumhouse and Universal hoped.

In her feature film debut Humane, director Caitlin Cronenberg tackles quite a few massive issues, including ecological disaster, humane euthanasia, sacrificing yourself for the greater good, and toxic family dynamics. And yet, with so many heavy topics swirling around, she manages to craft something with a unique tone, one that is never too dour and

It’s been three long years since Netflix unleashed the bloody, but enjoyable Fear Street on its platform. Released in a tryptic fashion, the streamer broke up the story into three episodes, each taking place in a different decade which by the finale were all tied together.

Courtesy of The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and CBS Renowned author Stephen King, famous for his spine-tingling novels and short stories, has found himself on the receiving end of a gripping experience that he didn’t pen himself.

With as successful as a niche independent horror film can be at the box office, Late Night With the Devil is doing even better on streaming.  The halfway-to-Halloween drop of Late Night With the Devil in March wasn’t out for even a month before it headed to streaming on April 19 where it remains as

The reason why there are over a thousand episodes of all versions of Law & Order is that audiences love watching the process unfold in bite-sized, hermetically-sealed, less-than-an-hour chunks.
