With the inaugural season of Lovecraft Country well underway and Color Out of Space now available on Shudder, the Year of Lovecraft remains in full swing. H.P. Lovecraft‘s works tapped into the fear of the unknowable, of horrors vast and incomprehensible. His brand of cosmic horror made humans look so frail and obsolete by comparison. In a present

On December 8, 2020, Scream Factory celebrates the politically-charged science fiction thriller They Live with a new 4K UHD/Blu-ray™ release, as well as a Limited Edition NECA action figure and Sacred Bones 7” vinyl, we’ve learned today! Horror master John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing) directs this heart-pounding thriller in which aliens are systematically gaining control

Compared to most subgenres in horror, folk horror isn’t as easy to classify. It’s agreed that The Wicker Man, The Witchfinder General, and The Blood on Satan’s Claw are the holy trinity of folk horror, but beyond that, it gets a little murky because there are no clear-cut rules. Folk horror does have a few defining traits,

Not to be outdone by 3D Realms, Nightdive Studios has been busy with several reveals lately. The upcoming remaster of Shadow Man: Remastered received a new teaser trailer, which finally shows off the game in action (as opposed to just screenshots). We can expect the game to hit PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC

Much like a lot of developers this year, 3D Realms has taken their reveals online, and if you’re a sucker for first-person shooters, the Realms Deep showcase has you covered.

Turtle Rock Studios has teased a bit of their Left 4 Dead successor Back 4 Blood already, but did you know that the devs had another project in the works that was sadly canned before moving on to Back 4 Blood?

Back in January, Bethesda gave classic Doom fans a treat with a new update that added a more modern flair to Doom and Doom II, as well as mod support and John Romero’s SIGIL add-on.

Last year, NECA released a set of two retro-style figures based on John Carpenter’s They Live, both depicting the film’s alien invaders, with an upcoming figure of Roddy Piper’s John Nada shown off at Toy Fair earlier this year. And revealed by Keith David himself on social media today, an action figure of his character from the 1988

Previewed at Toy Fair earlier this year, NECA had been set to release 8″ Jaws figures of both Martin Brody and Quint, with a massive figure of the film’s killer shark also on the way.

After the less-than-amicable split between DOOM Eternal composer Mick Gordon and Bethesda, it was a question of who would replace Gordon in the upcoming “The Ancient Gods” DLC expansion. Well, who better to conduct a sonic assault in a shooter than someone who’s been doing that for more than a while? That’s right, Andrew Hulshult,

Bill Skarsgård had been set to star alongside his brother Alexander Skarsgård in Robert Eggers‘ (The Witch, The Lighthouse) new movie The Northman, but those plans have unfortunately changed.

September 3, 2020 6:10 pm By Nadia Vella Hollywood actor Dennis Quaid has a new furry friend — a cute black rescue cat. Its name? Dennis Quaid. The tale of two Dennises began when the actor heard from a local news report that a black rescue cat, also named Dennis Quaid, was resident in an

Things are getting wacky in the latest trailer for Devolver Digital’s upcoming Serious Sam 4. Well, wackier than what’s normal for the series.

Does anyone even remember we’re in a new decade? Feels weird to say since it seems like we’re living several years in the span of a few months and, being completely honest with ourselves, 2020 waved the white flag. We get it. A once in a lifetime pandemic tends to have that effect. With that

With Prometheus and Alien: Covenant, Ridley Scott explored heady concepts of creation and religion through the eyes of an android longing to understand humanity. Executive producer Scott now passes the baton to Aaron Guzikowski (Prisoners), the series creator of HBO Max’s Raised by Wolves.

Things aren’t going well for high school student Sarah (Julia Sarah Stone): she’s avoiding her mother for reasons unknown, which means she’s alternating staying with her friend Zoe (Tedra Rogers) and sleeping in the park.

Over ten years ago, Bryan Bertino made waves with his bleak debut, The Strangers, which set a high bar for home invasion horror. His subsequent films confirmed his trademark style- nihilistic horror uninterested in tidy answers and happy endings. His latest, The Dark and the Wicked, harkens back to his debut in terms of pessimism, simplicity,

The majority of movies that had been set for release in 2020 became the victims of unfortunate circumstance when the COVID-19 pandemic made its way across the world early in the year, with many pushed off the calendar completely.
