Horror

The 1980s was a pivotal time for horror fiction, especially for young adults. As Grady Hendrix wrote in Paperbacks From Hell, this was the decade where “horror hit its stride with a hungry teenage audience.” Dell Publishing’s own part in the prevailing trend included Twilight: Where Darkness Begins, a collection of self-contained books that helped

Amazon Studios recently greenlit “The Horror of Dolores Roach,” based on the hit Gimlet podcast, and today Deadline has updated on the project with more casting news. Marc Maron (GLOW), Jean Yoon (Kim’s Convenience), Judy Reyes (Succession, Better Things), and Jeffery Self (Search Party) have all signed on for recurring roles in the series. Justina Machado (The Purge: Anarchy) will star

Monolith Productions’ Blood is obviously a favourite of many PC gamers enthralled with 90s first-person shooters. And Nightdive Studio’s remaster of the game in Blood: Fresh Supply only further cemented the game as one of the most fun shooters a horror fan could play. And now Limited Run is getting in on the fun with

The world is loud, and it is only getting louder. Escaping the noise outside can seem impossible, especially when living in an urban environment. But as anyone who frequents them knows, libraries are a haven from all the bustle. While they have evolved to be more like community centers, libraries still encourage guests to keep

Bloody Disgusting has hit the road with Dark Star Pictures on our latest collaboration, the Spanish horror movie The Passenger (La pasajera), which is now available On Demand and DVD on June 28, 2022! In the film, a group of strangers sharing a ride has their trip interrupted when the driver hits a woman hiking in the dark

Evil is good. That’s what we were all told in ads for Bullfrog Productions’ Dungeon Keeper. Unlike most video games at that time in 1997, this RTS bucked the trend of playing as the good guys, and had you indulge in your darker side as the boss of your own villainous lair looking to conquer

Adult Swim‘s mini-series “Uzumaki,” based on the supernatural horror manga by legendary author Junji Ito, was announced way back in 2019, and alas, it has been delayed again. The reason for the delay, however, is a good one. An update shared to Twitter this afternoon explains, “Unfortunately, the premiere of the series must again be delayed.

Venom was an unprecedented move for video-game adaptations when Dimension Films acquired rights to an unproduced game in 2003. Developers Flint Dille and John Zuur Platten said their concept for Backwater was “ready-made to become a horror film as well as a game,” and players were positioned to be “the prey of a modern-day boogieman”

Previously released on PC earlier this year, Digital Happiness’ DreadOut 2 will be seeing a console release next month. The Indonesian Survival Horror title will hit the Xbox One and Xbox Series on July 14th, while the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions will arrive on July 20th. Drawing inspiration from Indonesian folklore and urban

For this entry of Phantom Limbs, we’ll be dropping by the Shady Rest Retirement Home in East Texas to pay a visit to Bubba Nosferatu, Phantasm creator Don Coscarelli’s long developed yet tragically unproduced sequel to Bubba Ho-Tep, the 2002 adaptation of Joe Lansdale’s novella of the same name. As with that initial film, Bubba

The Langoliers, a 1995 TV miniseries based on Stephen King’s 1988 novella, usually ranks somewhere among the most forgotten or worst of King adaptations. At best, television’s limitations and the ‘90s CGI date the miniseries, especially once the eponymous creatures start chomping up the scenery. Filmmaker Aristotelis Maragkos laboriously re-edits the miniseries using paper collage techniques and

30 years in the making, Oscar Award-winning visual effects artist Phil Tippett (Star Wars, Starship Troopers) has finally released his stop-motion animation sci-fi epic Mad God. Now, Waxwork Records announces today that they’re giving the Mad God Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Dan Wool the vinyl treatment! “Mad God is a stop-motion live-action hybrid horror film written,

Thrash metal legends Megadeth have released a steady flow of music for over 40 years. Unfortunately, the last two releases have been marred by several unavoidable hiccups including COVID-19, founder Dave Mustaine‘s battle with throat cancer, and the replacement of bassist David Ellefson. Thankfully, the brutal six-year wait has come to an end with the

It’s impossible to imagine the films of Dario Argento without the eerie, one-of-a-kind tunes that play over the stunning images, many of which were contributed by the Italian progressive rock band known as Goblin. The unmistakable sounds of Goblin can be heard in Dario Argento horror classics including Suspiria and Deep Red, along with Phenomena

This week has been absolutely loaded up with new horror, with six brand new horror movies already releasing at home this past Tuesday. Guess what? That was only the beginning. The summer horror season is in full swing with the first big theatrical release of the summer this weekend, and it’s joined by four more

John Carpenter‘s The Thing captures the exhaustive toll of paranoia and mistrust when a shape-shifting alien enters the ranks of an Antarctic research facility completely isolated and stranded by harsh weather conditions. The eponymous Thing could be anyone at any time, especially if its victim broke away from the group for even a moment. Carpenter used

Scott Derrickson (Sinister, Doctor Strange) is back with The Black Phone, which is headed exclusively to theaters on June 24. The film’s official Dolby Cinema poster has been revealed tonight, and it comes courtesy of Creepy Duck Design! Much like Creepy Duck’s poster for this year’s Scream, this was originally fan-made poster art that has now

Bruce Lorne Campbell is 64 years young this month. This marks over four decades spent with the Michiganer; add on a few years if you include the Super 8 shorts saga with Scott Spiegel, Bill Ward and Josh Becker. Armed with the charisma of a leading man, comedic chops of a vaudevillian and a couldn’t-give-a-shit

Freddy Krueger was everywhere in the late 80s. It only made sense that he’d get his own show. But unlike Friday the 13th: The Series, Freddy’s Nightmares would put its headlining star front-and-center. Introducing every episode and frequently participating in the plots, Freddy hosted a show that would explore the lives (and deaths) of the

Spooky narratives tend to be scarier when experienced alone, and that’s why I’ve always preferred single-player horror gaming. That being said, there’s no denying that multiplayer has taken over videogames over this past decade, captivating players with the unpredictable thrills of online cat-and-mouse matches. Now that horror juggernauts like the Friday the 13th franchise and

Ahead of Scream 6 next year, new franchise star Melissa Barrera is next headed to Netflix for the limited series “Keep Breathing,” a survival thriller that will premiere this summer. “Keep Breathing” launches July 28, 2022. Check out some first-look images below. In the six-episode limited series, “After her private plane crashes in the remote

Jason Blum has made it clear many times over the years that he’d love to bring the Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th franchises into the Blumhouse family alongside Halloween and The Exorcist, which is certainly always a possibility in the future. The Friday rights are still tangled up in a legal mess,

Sinister Succubus. After three weeks of films with objectionable content (real-life kangaroo murder in Wake in Fright, an injured actress and problematic killer in Incident in a Ghostland and “consensual rape” in Perdita Durango), we did what might be our hardest pivot yet with last week’s episode on the 2002 live-action adaptation Scooby-Doo. Now it’s time

Scrappy Scrote. After three weeks of films with objectionable content (real-life kangaroo murder in Wake in Fright, an injured actress and problematic killer in Incident in a Ghostland and “consensual rape” in Perdita Durango), we thought it might be nice to swamp out the dark and dreary for the…colorful and cheerful? That’s right, we’re heading back

John Carpenter‘s horror classic The Thing is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, and Fathom Events is heading back to 1982 by bringing the film back into movie theaters.
