Like many of the demos announced today, this is a time-limited one, available from today until February 12. The demo features both solo and co-op play, as you team up with friends

It would seem that The Last of Us series co-creator Neil Druckmann has an idea for one more story to tell. In the new feature-length documentary Grounded II: Making The Last of Us Part II, Druckmann teases that he has a concept for a third entry for the acclaimed series. In the new documentary (which

In the canon of high school-set slashers, Departing Seniors is a moderate achiever — the middle of the pack. Jose Nateras’ screenplay massages LGBTQ+ themes into an adorable-awkward-angsty teen romance threatened by deadly obstacles (outside cruel bigotry). It’s refreshingly genuine in terms of treating queer relationships with normalcy, but schoolyard slasher tension dulls without sharp

From Searchlight Pictures, Amy Adams is set to star in hot horror project Nightbitch, which recently received an R-rating from the MPA. Today finally brings news of the Amy Adams’ horror movie, buried within another non-genre project announcement over at Deadline. The “darkly comic horror film” is being directed by Marielle Heller (A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood), and we’ve

Fedora fashion. After kicking off 2024 with discussions on the better-than-it-has-any-right-to-be sequel Hellbound: Hellraiser II (listen), the surprisingly progressive Killer Condom (listen) and the very gay (and very terrible) The Covenant, we’re wrapping up January with a conversation about Christian E. Christiansen‘s pseudo-remake of Single White Female: The Roommate. The Roommate sees Sara (Minka Kelly), a young design student from Iowa,

Metal Gear Solid on the original PlayStation was the first time I actually remember being plugged into the hype cycle of a video game. I was in my early teens and finally really getting into the hobby, reading various magazines and taking in all the information I could about the industry. When I got the

The day’s finally arrived for Alan Wake to enter The Fog and join Behaviour Interactive’s Dead by Daylight. Alan Wake joins the asymmetrical multiplayer title as the latest Survivor as part of Tome 18: Revision. You know the story by now: best-selling author Alan Wake has a case of writer’s block.

Paramount+ premiered the werewolf horror series “Wolf Pack” back in January 2023, and TV Line reports tonight that the series has already been cancelled after just one season. Sarah Michelle Gellar made her return to horror in the series. TV Line reports, “Last summer’s dual Hollywood strikes were the final nail in Wolf Pack‘s coffin. According

From man-eating beds to serial-killing gingerbread cookies, there’s no shortage of absurd premises in the horror genre. However, not all of these weird movies are created equal, and I’d argue that a silly premise is only half the battle when crafting a legitimately entertaining piece of absurdist genre cinema. Personally, I think that the very

Karl Urban marked the end of filming on Simon McQuoid‘s upcoming Mortal Kombat 2 on his Instagram, calling it “the most action packed fun I’ve ever had” on a film. Urban, who plays Johnny Cage in the follow-up to the 2021 film, also took the opportunity to show himself sans beard, which he’ll no doubt

Well, it was going to happen, eventually. Lilith Walther‘s Bloodborne Kart as we know it is getting a makeover. Luckily, the project isn’t cancelled, but thanks to Sony, Bloodborne is out. In a new YouTube video, Walther does the “long story short” deal explaining that Sony had contacted them to ask that the game be

Only three years before he was trapped in Arizona by a kingdom of tarantulas and a mere five years before he played James T. Kirk in Star Trek‘s first motion picture, William Shatner starred in the low budget thriller Impulse. And thanks to the team at Grindhouse Releasing, the world can finally witness another Shatner joint

If there’s one thing horror fans love the most, it’s a solid scare that gets the adrenaline pumping. We’re forever chasing the thrills that a great scary movie can bring, which is no easy feat the more entrenched in the genre we become. That proves especially true in the current digital age, where there’s an

DreadXP’s Dread Delusion has received another Early Access update, this time its biggest since that Early Access launch back in 2022 with The Clockwork Kingdom. Available now, the update introduces a brand-new region to the game with an island filled with mechanical monstrosities, new quests and more. Cold and desolate, The Clockwork Kingdom is ruled

Writer/Director Chris Nash’s feature debut, In a Violent Nature, upends a straightforward Friday the 13th-inspired slasher concept by reframing the events almost entirely from the perspective of the undead killer. That’s not the only massive shift that sets Nash’s slasher apart from conventional fare. In a Violent Nature may offer slasher thrills and a delightfully gory rampage across the

Up next from actress Aisling Franciosi (The Nightingale, Last Voyage of the Demeter) is the horror movie Stopmotion, and a brand new trailer unveiled today gives an unsettling look at the puppet-inducing horror. Stopmotion releases in theaters on February 23 before heading to Shudder on May 31, 2024. Directed by Robert Morgan, the film stars Franciosi as Ella Blake,

From producers Sam Raimi (Evil Dead, Drag Me to Hell, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness) and Roy Lee (IT, Doctor Sleep, Don’t Worry Darling) comes the upcoming action-thriller Boy Kills World, which is said to be a “one-of-a-kind action spectacle set in a dystopian fever dream reality.” But when the hell will you actually be able to see

“From the dusty mesa, her looming shadow grows.” 10 years ago, these ominous lyrics (courtesy of the alternative country duo The Handsome Family) introduced us to a horrific world of crime, conspiracy and multi-layered madness in the infamous intro to HBO’s hit show, True Detective. From that very first episode, we all knew this was

Warning: The following contains major spoilers for The Babadook. The first time I watched The Babadook, I nearly had a nervous breakdown. It was March of 2015. My husband, a CPA, was deep in the throes of tax season, leaving me alone for long stretches of time with our one-year-old son and three-year-old daughter who

Little Bat Games is keen on finding out just what makes vampires tick with their debut title, Vampire Therapist. Coming to Steam on June 17, players will be putting that armchair psychiatrist role to the test with real-life therapy techniques as you examine and deconstruct vampire psyches from different historical periods. Vampire Therapist  is described

Filmmaker Rose Glass has an audacious way of exploring obsession, pushing it to extremes in beguiling, genre-defying ways. Her feature debut, Saint Maud, centered on a nurse who took her religious fanaticism to extremes, compounded by an obsession with her latest patient. Glass’s sophomore effort, Love Lies Bleeding, wields obsession as a destructive coping mechanism for the pain that

Dark secrets, resentment, and jealousy raucously bubble up to the surface in writer/director Greg Jardin’s feature debut, It’s What’s Inside. A pre-wedding reunion amongst former college friends begins with easy revelry as eight gather to reminisce and imbibe in mind-altering substances. Only none knew just how mind-bending the night would become when a suitcase emerges to introduce

In the pantheon of cool horror movie locations, the bowling alley is an overlooked gem. Unsurprisingly, the tendency to feature a disembodied body part being flung down the lane means that such films are frequently horror comedies (think Anna and the Apocalypse, Cabin Fever, Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama and Fright Night 2).

Astronauts Dr. Kira Foster (Ariana DeBose) and Christian Campbell (10 Cloverfield Lane’s John Gallagher Jr.) barely settle into their new posts aboard the I.S.S. before war breaks out on Earth.

The Halloweenies take a quick post-holiday vacay to Raven’s Fair to discuss James Wan‘s 2007 supernatural horror film, Dead Silence. Together, they discuss Wan’s bleached-out style, the muddled mythology, Donnie Wahlberg‘s scene-stealing performance, and, naturally, 2010’s Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole.

With it looking like we might not be getting our Exorcist fix for a while, developers Fernando Tittz and Ahldain Michael have one solution with the announcement that their game Devil Inside Us: Roots of Evil will be getting a console release next week. Previously released to Steam (with a demo in case you’re curious),

From the filmmakers behind Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey (and its in-the-works sequel) and the upcoming Bambi: The Reckoning and Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare comes the latest movie in this twisted public domain horror universe, Pinocchio: Unstrung.
