You'll lose your mind over this contest: Win a Blu-ray copy of Maniac: Limited Edition! It's new release Tuesday, which means we're continuing our streak of giving away great Blu-rays from our friends at MVD Entertainment. Today's rele...
2017's Happy Death Day had a concept so simple that I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. It used Groundhog Day style time loops to create something that was part horror movie, part comedy, and part murder mystery. The trailer for next ye...
Take a bite out of this contest: Win a Blu-ray copy of ZOMBIE: Limited Edition. It's new release Tuesday, which means we're continuing our streak of giving away great Blu-rays from our friends at MVD Entertainment. Today's release is d...
Hellboy is coming back, but this time he's coming back hard. Horror director Neil Marshall is taking over the reins and he's basically been promising since day one to get real weird up in this thing. This first look of Hellboy him...
Dennis Quaid has made a career of acting like a wholesome dude that you'd gladly let be a surrogate father to your children. That was clearly all a lie as in the first trailer for The Intruder we see him go full on psychotic agai...
There have been seven Leprechaun movies, including a reboot? What kind of world do we live in and does this make it a good world or a bad one? As you ponder that philosophical question, tune into the first trailer for the d...
The contests keep coming: Win a copy of Arrow Video's The Wizard of Gore. It's new release Tuesday, which means we're continuing our streak of giving away great Blu-rays from our friends at MVD Entertainment. This week we've got Arrow ...
For the longest time, I didn't think that Overlord would release. Not because it was in production hell or anything like that, but because it was a part of J. J. Abrams Cloverfield universe and those movies can be announ...
If you think I'm going to stop running contests, then you must not know my name. Win a Blu-ray copy of The Unnamable. Our friends over at MVD Entertainment Group started sending us movies. But then, they didn't stop. The terror! I have...
Overlord looks schlocky, gruesome, terrible and wonderful. I'm guessing for a sleeper hit on this one with probably some sort of twist on the Nazi/Zombie sub-genre you weren't expecting. Then again maybe not. Maybe it will just be a straigh...
Monster Party is a well-named film. Meaning it has a catchy title. It caught my interest. Especially when the film is described to be about a group of would-be thieves pretending to be caterers robbing a Malibu mansion, only they get m...
With Halloween landing on a Wednesday this week, you might have found yourself in a dilemma: You spent the entire Halloweekend gorging yourself on spooks and scares, and now with the actual day fast approaching you have nothing left to watc...
For the month of October, we've partnered with Arrow Video for exclusive contests on some of their weirdest, scariest, goriest, and schlockiest films. Get ready to bathe in the warm karo syrup of their new release Blu-ray films. T...
There's nothing worse than a horror movie that isn't scary. When the entire purpose of your movie is to scare people and you fail to do that, then it's hard to deny that the movie completely failed at its job. There can be a lot of reason w...
Picture this: [INT. 1962, Universal lot, Burbank, CA. Board meeting. Overworked studio execs fumbling paper, looking nervous.] EXEC 1: We’re all dry. We’ve got a big gap next spring, no way of filling it, what the heck are we go...
Has The Purge franchise really been around for five years? It seems like the series has been around for much longer, but it never really made as big of a splash in the pop culture zeitgeist as people thought it would. I mean, with...
Luca Guadagnino’s Suspiria is going to piss off so many people. Fans of Dario Argento’s 1977 original will be enraged by the changes. Fans of Guadagnino’s Call Me By Your Name will be appalled by how brutal, gruesome, and ...
For the rest of the month of October, we've partnered with Arrow Video for exclusive contests on some of their weirdest, scariest, goriest, and schlockiest films. Get ready to bathe in the warm karo syrup of their new release Blu-...
While this is about as surprising as Michael Myers killing people, Halloween came in at the top of the box office, knocking off Venom which had held the top spot for the past two weeks. Coming in at $77.5 million, this is the best opening w...
Blessed Are the Children is a slasher flick with an intriguing hook. Imagine if the Westboro Baptist Church ghouls who gained notoriety for their vitriolic protests of abortion clinics and funerals stalk a young woman who terminated a pregn...
Like all slasher franchises Halloween has had its ups and downs over the years. Sure there's something to appreciate in even the worst of the eight original films and two Rob Zombie reboots, but it's hard to argue that the fr...
I like to imagine the entire Conjuring universe is actually a long prequel to Hard Candy, with Wilson as Ed Warren getting possessed by the demon/nun super devil and, becoming some immortal, evil, pedophile, losing to Ellen Page of all pe...
For the rest of the month of October, we've partnered with Arrow Video for exclusive contests on some of their weirdest, scariest, goriest, and schlockiest films. For the next three Tuesdays, get ready to bathe in the warm karo sy...
Johnny Gruesome's theme song describes its title character with more poetry than I could dream to achieve: "I died in anger. I want revenge. The only color I see is red. I'm not gonna stop. Blood is gonna drop, until everybody is dead. With...
I won’t beat around the bush here; this movie blows. I was gonna do this whole intro I normally do where I tell you about how scary the Goosebumps books were when I was a kid, and blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda, and this new thing...
Gareth Evans (not to be confused with the also talented Gareth Edwards) is easily one of the best action directors working. The Raid and The Raid 2 are, to put it simply, action masterpieces. His use of space, innov...
Halloween is back... in pog form! No, OK, it's just back in classic form. With the return of Jamie Lee Curtis and functioning as a direct sequel to the first movie the newest edition of Halloween actually looks scary as hell....
The scariest child in cinematic history is Miko Hughes ("that kid" from the 90s) in the original Pet Semetary. Screw that kid and his terrorizing of my childhood dreams. It looks, however, like there's a new host of creepy children se...
After It was such a smash hit everyone is scrambling on board the Stephen King adaptation train, and the next one to land is long-in-gestation new adaptation of Pet Semetary, which was already fantastically and creepily done back in 19...
I have yet to see the Korean film Train to Busan, but it's in my pile of "must watch" movies as the idea of a bunch of people stuck on a train during a zombie outbreak is pretty awesome, and there must be a reason it was an internation...
Universal recently released a second Halloween trailer, and frankly, if anything, it only adds to the hype created by the first. It begins with a true crime montage of the new Halloween mythos, i.e. the first film exists and now this film ...
MGM and Orion are rolling forward with much haste on their reboot of the Child's Play franchise. Production started this week and with that, we have our first look at the new look Chucky. He looks like Chucky, but a bit updated and les...
How can a sentient carousel unicorn kill a group of unsuspecting youths? Oh, let me count the ways: by cleaver, by horn, by hoof, by car, by axe, by arrow, by pizza cutter, and by laser vision of course. It seems no method is too over-the-...
I will be very honest and say I only decided to review Mermaid's Song because it meant I could see it for free. I had no prior knowledge of this movie before Tuesday, but you never turn down free. Unfortunately, I forgot there tru...
I'm not going to lie about Assassination Nation. The content in this movie is, frankly, uncomfortable to sit through. The movie begins by showing trigger warnings of all of the horrible things that happen over the course movie and tell...
You know what a lot of kids movies lack these days (I ask while waving my cane in the air at a cloud)? Charm. There's some amazing stuff going on for sure, but that certain "charming" characteristic is often missing. Maybe it's because chil...
I'll be damned. Here's a teen-focused horror film that actually looks good. The Dark, a debut from Justin P. Lange captures strong Gothic tones with a human core, if the trailer is anything to go by. Will it devolve into over-emotional tee...
Citizens rejoice! October is right around the corner and that means a slew of cheesy horror movies coming out that cost about 4 nickels and a button to make. That's not to say they can't be good, but its definitely a "throw it on a wall an...
From writer and director Gareth Evans of The Raid, the first trailer for Netflix's Apostle certainly isn't wanting for violence. We have giant drills to bore into skulls and spiked rolling pins to eat up hands worse than a garbage disposal...
From the opening animated sequence of ghoulish color and synth rhythm to the closing pizza commercial, Slice wears its 80's inspirations emblazoned on the back of its red delivery jacket. It's self-aware and unafraid to be ridiculous, and b...
