There's something to be said for an honest-to-goodness genre movie, one that doesn't flinch from its roots and executes its tropes efficiently, if familiarly. The Turning, adapting Henry James' classic horror story The Turn of the Screw, fa...
Take this one with a grain of salt, but if an exchange between a couple of noteworthy names on Twitter means anything we might be seeing Remedy Entertainment's 2019 action game Control join the ranks of game-to-film adaptations.
Richard Stanley's 1990 cult hit Hardware and follow-up Dust Devil have careful threads that artistically weave pulp, world-building, and theme together. Hardware is at once a grimy hard rock music video of a killer robot movie and a trippy,...
The last year of our previous decade (2019 for anyone keeping track) was a big one for movies. Important, genre-redefining masterpieces and careful introspections of the human soul have crashed into the public consciousness. Billion-dollar ...
I want to watch Verotika so bad it hurts. It was supposed to drop Halloween of 2019 before having its release date cruelly pushed back to this year. Through this excruciating wait (which I'm sure we're all feeling), inch by inch we're drag...
Did you know you can make reservations to take your love to a White Castle on Valentine's Day? Is that a cool thing to do? Absolutely. The only problem is that then you need the perfect movie to pair with your sliders of passion--and that'...
Though it received a feature follow-up in the form of Ridley Scott's Hannibal in 2001, Jonathan Demme's positively-iconic thriller The Silence of the Lambs will be getting a small-screen sequel in Clarice, a new series coming to CBS.
When I first caught a trailer for Underwater, the Kristen Stewart-led creature-feature set amidst the murky depths of the Mariana Trench, I made the out-loud joke to my friends and fellow theater-goers "Is that really the title?" I got a la...
Amsterdam is about to become a hunting ground in the first trailer for Uncaged, my now most anticipated movie of 2019. Look at that glorious lion! He's beautiful, majestic, violent, and at least higher quality than the jaguar in Primal. Th...
Fox's The New Mutants has had a troubled life, to say the least. It's been in development a long time. The first trailer dropped in 2017 and the movie had a 2018 release date. Then the film was delayed. Then Fox was bought by Disney. There ...
How is this movie coming out in January? I just don't get it. The first trailer was fantastic, and this fresh peek at Oz Perkins' latest is just so lush with inventive storybook horror images that I can't see this being any less than a vis...
It hasn't even been a full day of the new year and we're already getting a new look at A Quiet Place Part II. Released earlier this morning, Paramount has given us a short glimpse at the sequel to 2018's smash-hit and it looks a surprising...
In news that might shock ("Cats had an Oscar campaign?") initially and then make sense upon reflection, Universal Pictures has decided to cease pushing Tom Hooper's Cats for consideration at the upcoming 2020 Academy Awards.
A little over a week ago, a new adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Half was announced, and I attempted to predict what project in the massive slate of Stephen King adaptations would follow. My guess was Christine. I'm both shamefully wro...
Parents, am I right? Can't live with them, wouldn't be alive without them. With the sudden approach of Christmas and other winter celebrations, it's that time in which we all dread traveling to visit our families. There's the commuting, th...
You might wonder to yourself about the upcoming Nicolas Cage trip, Color Out of Space, what exactly does a color out of space look like anyway? If this poster is any indication, it looks a lot like a lightning bolt struck a lava lamp which ...
Horror, though often hated by puritans, sometimes gets knocked as puritanical itself. Teens getting funky in the back of a van? Stab 'em. Drinking and doing drugs? Stab 'em. Virginal bookworm? Nope. Stop. Put down that knife. This is a no ...
The merits of remaking a movie are often called into question immediately by the masses. Be it staunch defenders of the source material, weary analysts of Hollywood's "pool" of talent, or moviegoers just sick and tired of...garbage, it's us...
We have one stylish 80's throwback, looking to be brutal in all the right ways, with the above trailer for VFW. The setup sees a group of Vietnam vets hanging at their local VFW bar celebrating a birthday when a girl storms inside with a b...
Ghost stories have never been much my bag, so I haven't really spent much time with The Grudge franchise. That all might change soon, however, since the upcoming remake has what appears to be a lot of blood in it. I sure do like me some bl...
One of the main issues with the survival horror masterpiece Silent Hill 2 is that its central antagonist, Pyramid Head is meant to be a manifestation of the evils of an unrepressed libido running wild, dominating and destroying all in its ...
A meditation on the familial nature of mental illness and the steady unwinding of a young man's psyche as he deals with an unstable mother and a broken home life, Daniel Isn't Real draws clear parallels with last year's sweaty screamathon, ...
Welcome to Keyhouse. If you are unfamiliar with the property then let me help you with that. This house is home to the Locke family, who have lived here for centuries. It holds many secrets within its grounds. Be wary and keep your eyes and...
Pagan horror is one of the most maligned styles of the horror genre. Though some low-budget efforts like Wake Wood can drag you in a surprising and interesting direction, the bulk are just pretenders to The Wicker Man throne. Even a fi...
British filmmaker Jonathan Glazer has certainly abided by a quality-over-quantity ethos. A successful career in music videos and commercials (which continues to this day) gave way to his 2000 feature Sexy Beast, and we were off to the races...
Universal Pictures has just announced that Elizabeth Banks will be directing and starring in Invisible Woman, a reboot of the 1940 monster film The Invisible Woman. Despite having a bomb on her hands with the poorly received and even poorer...
Death Bed: The Bed That Eats is a familiar title to anyone who's a fan of bizarre cult cinema. Even if you haven't seen it, you know the name and understand that it's a movie about a bed that literally eats people. Is it a good movie? Not i...
Here's some slender news to let your imagination run wild with: Fede Alvarez, the filmmaker behind the phenomenal Evil Dead remake and Don't Breath plans to direct a film that we no nothing about, except for one very tantalizing logline. Th...
I think one thing on which we can all agree is that once a teenage boy starts doing his face like The Crow it's time to give him a wide berth. In the case of the young man leading Killer Therapy, that distance might just save your life.
As someone who has had cats, squirrels, and even a groundhog trapped inside my family shed growing up, there's a strange intimacy to that moment when you hear an inhuman sound bubble from what ought to be a closed and predictable space. It'...
A dead patriarch, disturbed brother, missing child, mysterious lake, and secret pagan cult are a lot to stuff into one movie. It's like a plot pierogi ready to burst--but Red Handed is willing to risk spilling that hot potato filling all o...
In 2009, Frank Sabatella directed his first feature--Blood Night: The Legend of Mary Hatchet. It's an exploitation heavy slasher about college students who unwittingly summon the ghost of a maddened murderess searching for the daughter she ...
Doctor Sleep is a strange thing. Part a sequel to Stanley Kubrick's seminal film The Shining and part an adaptation of Stephen King's seminal book The Shining it sits in an awkward spot. See, the film and the book have drasti...
Scream is a property that just won't stay down. Not even the passing of the series' director, Wes Craven, will keep this series in status for much longer. It has been reported that Spyglass Media Group has acquired the rights to and is curr...
Emerging as the first project to rise from the ashes of the Dark Universe, that experiment in MCUing Universal's slate of classic monsters, The Invisible Man has come along with a trailer. And luckily, you can actually see it!
We now have our fist official look at Color Out of Space, starring Nicolas Cage and directed by Richard Stanley, and it's shaping up to be a trip. The beautiful neon-drenched scenery, bloody and strange hallucinations, and a shotgun freako...
If your horror title features two words, then I expect to see both words duly accounted for. Dead Alive featured both the dead and alive--and dead things that were still alive--earning it a big check mark. Blood Creek took place near a cre...
If a horror movie has a child, then chances are that child is the entire reason the horror movie exists. Imagine if the couple in Pet Sematary just had the cat and no kids? They would've been fine. Imagine Rosemary's Baby but without the b...
Red Letter Day sets its stage like a Hallmark Original horror movie. We meet the Edwards family, a three-piece unit with dorky brother Timothy (Kaeleb Zain Gartner), goth sister Madison (Hailey Foss), and divorced mom Melanie (Dawn Van de S...
We're still a year out from Halloween Kills, sequel to Halloween (2018), but that doesn't mean the production team is taking a break. In this new short clip -shared from actress Jamie Lee Curtis' Twitter account-, we get to see an incredib...
