Just like Rabid’s lead character Rose… on the outside – following her miraculous skin-grafting treatments – her beauty is unmatched. But on the inside, things are a little messed-up and uncertain. It’s a metaphor for the Soska Sisters’ (Jen and Sylvia) new remake of David Cronenberg’s ‘70s classic – Rabid. I’ve never seen the 1977

Jeffrey A. Brown’s directorial debut is a powerful, emotional throwback to ‘50s sci-fi that presents a stunning glimpse of a parasitic invasion. “Life is so fragile.” The Beach House is an apocalyptic fever dream brought to life. It’s an ode to the lofty science fiction films of the ’50s and gives the era the proper
This year has been surprisingly Critters-heavy, kicking off with Shudder’s series “Critters: A New Binge” back in March. That 8-episode return of the franchise, if you’re asking me, was quite awful, but I actually had a lot of fun with the brand new movie that came along shortly thereafter: Critters Attack!, which went straight to
Here’s what we know about Underwater so far: The monster movie starring Kristen Stewart is set to be released January 10, 2020.

It had been reported last month that Jonah Hill was in talks to potentially play one of the leading villains in Matt Reeves‘ The Batman, seemingly either Penguin or the Riddler, but Variety is now reporting tonight that Hill has passed on the project. The site notes, “Why exactly Hill is passing is currently unknown.”
Bradley Cooper, Toni Collette, Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara were recently set to star in Guillermo del Toro‘s Nightmare Alley, an adaptation of the novel by William Lindsay Gresham, and we’ve learned tonight that Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse) has also joined the cast. Variety reports that Dafoe “will play the head barker at a traveling carnival who gives Bradley
It’s a Danish film by the name of Harpiks. The English translation is Resin. Sadly, it was shown on a late Monday night at this year’s Screamfest (where it held its US Premiere), so the audience was tiny… and this film deserves a much wider audience. Right off the bat, with zero hesitation, I can
If you grew up in the ‘80s and ‘90s, then you probably recall how much fast food giant McDonald’s got into the Halloween spirit. Remember the Halloween McNugget buddies, decked out in costumes? Who could forget the Halloween buckets and pails for trick or treating? Even the McDonaldland pals, like Grimace and Hamburglar, got into
We open with a picturesque scene: a family picnicking on a beautiful day. A towheaded boy walks toward his parents, smiling in the sunshine, when he suddenly falls to the ground, his skin flushing crimson. “It burns! It burns!” Eli (Charlie Shotwell) wakes in his bed. He suffers from an autoimmune disease that essentially means

Another Monday, another horror comedy to help lift your spirits. This 2012 release makes for a perfect antidote to a grueling workday. An easy, breezy plot combined with a whole heaping helping of gore serves up yet another reminder why we love the genre so much; pure cathartic entertainment. As far as horror comedies go,
A new developer diary has appeared for Capcom’s Iceborne expansion for Monster Hunter: World, detailing the recent updates for the game. The panel for the video includes executive/art director Kaname Fujioka and director Ichihara Daisuke, and includes topics such as the recent addition of Rajang, Layered Armor, a new volcanic region for the Guiding Lands,
The horror community was devasted last month when we lost Sid Haig, an amazing horror icon. Many horror fans believed that Sid’s brief appearance in Rob Zombie’s 3 From Hell was his last appearance on film, but that is not true. Sid Haig’s official Instagram, which is run by his wife Suzie Haig, released a
The sad story of the Dead Space franchise still lingers, but for brief moments, you can see just how big the franchise was (and could have been). A recent post by a Twitter user about such a topic caught the eye of former Level Designer at Visceral Games Ben Johnson. Visceral, if you didn’t know,
Mike Doody, the one with the big grey beard, would have turned 57 today. When my big brother Mike saw John Carpenter’s Halloween for the first time in 1978, what occurred at that theater was legendary. It would be retold for years. As the tale goes, the moment when Myers burst from the kitchen cupboard,
