Robert Rodriguez (From Dusk Till Dawn, Sin City, Planet Terror, Machete) returns to the kid-friendly vibes of the Spy Kids movies with Netflix‘s We Can Be Heroes, which just launched globally on Netflix on December 25. And the film has proven to be a hit for the streaming service, as it’s projected that 44 million households will have watched it

Once dubbed “The First Leading Lady of British Horror,” Barbara Shelley was indeed a horror icon and legend thanks to her work with the famed British company Hammer Studios. Sadly, we’ve learned at the start of this week that Shelley has passed away at the age of 88. Born on February 13, 1932 in the

After seeming like an eternity, publisher and developer Nicalis has announced that the “Repentance” DLC for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is finally arriving March 31 for Steam. Console versions will have to wait a little while longer, unfortunately. “[Edmund McMillen] and the team are quite excited for this beast to finally rise from the

While we’re waiting on Tarsier Studios’ Little Nightmares II later this February, former members of the development team have been cooking up a little horror game on their own. Based in Malmö, Sweden, the new studio known as Section 9 Interactive has put out a few images on their Instagram and Twitter pages of their

Nickelodeon released today the first footage from their second season of “Are You Afraid of the Dark?”, the beloved horror anthology series that returns with a fresh look at the Midnight Society.

After the surprise announcement that GSC Game World would be bringing its elusive S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 to the Xbox Series, much like before, we still haven’t heard much about the game. GSC Game World must have realized this, since they’ve released an in-engine gameplay teaser trailer for the follow-up to 2010’s Call of Pripyat. Other than

No matter how the year panned out, at least horror was bountiful. Just a precursory glance at the most notable genre series that released in 2020 indicates an overwhelming selection. Spread across multiple platforms and streaming services, the sheer content available meant a staggering number of brand-new series, limited runs, returning favorites, and shows that

We’ve learned the sad news this afternoon via the George A. Romero Foundation that Gary Klar, known to horror fans for his role in Day of the Dead, has passed away at the age of 73. Klar played Steel in Romero’s 1985 classic, one of the film’s memorable human antagonists. The George A. Romero Foundation

To say the very least, 2020 has been an interesting year for anyone even tangentially involved in the film business – and, for that matter, for literally everyone. Period. After a couple months of steady theatrical releases, including Underwater and The Invisible Man, the entire industry was brought to a screeching halt when it became

It has been a tumultuous year for the music industry, but there was never a loss of resiliency or creativity. This year, the Lovecraft Country soundtrack made history by becoming the first-ever series scored by an online orchestra, with players from Metropolitan Opera, New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony and the Toronto Symphony recording solo in

Happy New Year, Fiends! It all ends right here, right now, on this week’s episode of Nightmare On Film Street. Join your horror hosts Jon & Kim as they kick 2020 to the curb and welcome another pre-apocalyptic year with a double-feature of post-apocalyptic cinema. First up, we’re hopping on board a zombie-infested train ride

Finding positivity in the infamous year that is 2020 may seem like a challenge, especially in the film world. Ever since the pandemic became an unfortunate factor in our lives, one of the many side effects has been the rampant pushbacks of anticipated films to later dates, including horror films like A Quiet Place: Part

There’s never been a more brilliant, groundbreaking TV series than the Rod Serling-created “The Twilight Zone,” which was WAY ahead of its time back in the 50s/60s. The original series ran for five seasons from 1959 to 1964, and it’s still blowing minds all these years later. If you’re in the mood to revisit those

After crushing their Kickstarter goal, and enjoying a successful release back in October, what’s left for October Night Games? How about some holiday content to help send you into the new year? Available now as a free content update, “Freezing Moon” is a new game mode that is faster, more intensive and challenging than the

The vibe of family reunions has shifted significantly this year, no question about it. In a country that has been encouraged to stay home for the holidays, the traditional get-togethers for many families have either been called off or are being held in spite of guidelines. Even for families that are still meeting up this

A few days ago, NECA celebrated Christmas by providing a first-look preview of their upcoming action figure line based on Amazon’s “The Boys,” and we admittedly missed the reveal until today. In the event that anyone else did too, well, better late than never… right?! Check out NECA’s Homelander and Starlight action figures above and

Álex de la Iglesia is a filmmaker with a reputation for insanely dark humor, stark violence, and an impressive ability to blend genres. All of which are on full display in cult hits The Day of the Beast, Witching and Bitching, The Last Circus, and more. The acclaimed horror filmmaker now turns his focus on television, spinning an

2020 has been an absolute beast of a year in every capacity. The movie industry faced unprecedented upheaval and solutions are still being found on how to best release movies. This year has still featured some big movies, but there are a number of highly anticipated horror releases like Candyman, Halloween Kills, and Spiral: The

If there was any movie that came along and truly captured the zeitgeist this year it was Rob Savage’s Host, filmed during the pandemic, released during the pandemic, and taking place entirely across a Zoom conversation between a lovable group of friends. It was truly a horror movie for 2020, both perfectly timed and genuinely scary

The end of 2020 is finally here! Here’s to hoping the new year brings a return to normalcy, at least in some capacity, and a lot of great new horror. There’s a handful of titles themed around New Year’s Eve when it comes to holiday horror. Movies like New Year’s Evil, Terror Train, and End of Days up the

Welcome to Unveiling The Mind. This bi-monthly column explores psychological horror and representations of mental illness within the genre. Coming into my first viewing of Black Swan in 2010, I had no idea what I was about to see. At the time, I knew little of Darren Aronofsky‘s work. I had seen Requiem for a Dream

Over 20 years after the release of the Wes Craven-produced franchise starter Wishmaster, we’ve learned this morning that a brand new novelization is now on the way! The press release explains, “Written by the creator of Hellraiser 2, 3 & 4, Peter Atkins, and directed by one third of the legendary KNB Effects Group, Robert

“You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder.” That observation from Samuel L. Jackson’s character Russell Franklin from the film Deep Blue Sea may not be scientifically correct, but he is right about

We really haven’t heard much of anything in regards to Endnight Games’ Sons of The Forest since it was briefly revealed back at last year’s Game Awards. Well, that (sort of) changes with a new trailer for the game, which adds more speculation as to what fans can expect once the game arrives, purportedly next

This Saturday we’re featuring a full day of horror shorts and anthologies on Bloody Disgusting TV, kicking things off with a Bloody Bites marathon featuring 11 episodes jam packed with short horror films.

Christmas is the time of year that everyone gathers around the TV and partakes in wacky Christmas capers or sickly-sweet Christmas romance (I think some people worship and spend time with loved ones, but I was raised Jewish. We went to the movies and watched TV). Personally, I never got into Christmas movies (probably the

The theatrical release slate might have been limited this year, but it didn’t slow down horror in the slightest. Even with our most anticipated titles postponed, 2020 still delivered great genre offerings, and with it, a ton of great movie posters. A movie trailer has an average of two minutes’ worth of highlight footage to

You always knew he’d call back. Bob Clark’s horror masterpiece Black Christmas has now been remade two times, most recently by Sophia Takal just last year, but those two films hardly aimed to recapture the eerie holiday creepiness of the 1974 proto-slasher. Filmmaker Dave McRae, however, is looking to do just that with his film It’s Me,
