Warning: The following contains major spoilers for Pet Sematary (2019) and Pet Sematary: Bloodlines (2023).  In the Master of Horror’s vast collection, few stories cast a shadow so dark as Pet Sematary. Stephen King’s 1983 novel follows Louis Creed and his young family as they fall victim to the grim shadow of death lurking in

I love when a video game genuinely surprises me. I’ll be the first to admit Trepang2 was not on my radar at all but I was sold when I heard it was a spiritual successor to the F.E.A.R. franchise. There’s been a F.E.A.R. shaped hole in the current landscape of horror-based first person shooters. Trepang2

While DREDGE‘s“The Iron Rig” DLC is a ways off, that’s not stopping developer Black Salt Games from cranking out more content, such as in the form of “The Pale Reach”. The newly-announced DLC for DREDGE will arrive on November 16 for $5.99, and introduces players to a new, frozen frontier. Via PlayStation Blog, “The Pale

A Night in Terror Tower was originally published in January 1995 (Spine #27) and the series adaptation aired on February 26, 1996 (runtime: 44 minutes – 22 minutes each). Centuries have a way of sanding down the sharp edges of the past, curbing terror, tragedy and the evils of man into palatable ghost stories that

Religious extremism is as old as religion itself. A belief in sorcery and witchcraft as some ungodly source has always been present when it comes to Christian fundamentalism – most often resulting in witchhunts and senseless deaths by hanging, burning at the stake, or drowning. It’s the fear of the unknown that has caused innocent

The tenth installment in Lionsgate’s long-running horror franchise, Saw X is playing in theaters nationwide, and Lionsgate is surely happy with the box office results over the weekend. Saw X scared up a reported $18 million in its opening weekend here in the United States, with the new movie’s worldwide total sitting at $29,300,000 just

3D Realms unveiled a whack of new titles at their Realms Deep 2023 showcase over the weekend, as well as offering up updates for previously-announced games. That of course includes a whack of new trailers to ogle, so here’s a small rundown of the titles featured during the 4-hour show (which you can rewatch here).

MCFARLANE TOYS’ Last year, McFarlane Toys’ Movie Maniacs line was quietly revived with a laughable series of figures that included characters from The Hangover, Looney Tunes, Harry Potter, and Wizard of Oz. Thankfully, the new line actually includes a horror figure, and it’s a doozy. Take a look at the brand new Pennywise plastic as

Netflix’s Castlevania animated series helped break barriers for not only its medium, but also the longstanding stigma that video game adaptations were doomed to fail. Castlevania gracefully bowed out after telling a complete story over the course of four seasons. However, it was revealed that the franchise would continue, albeit with new Castlevania series within

Amandla Stenberg (Bodies Bodies Bodies) leads the genre-bending werewolf movie My Animal, available now in select theaters and VOD, and the musically inclined actor also wrote and performed a new single “Wicked Animal” now available to stream. The new single is available to listen to now, which Stenberg wrote, produced and plays everything on the track.

The tenth entry in any franchise, let alone horror, is a monumental milestone. What began in 2004 with Saw, a twisty thriller that introduced John “Jigsaw” Kramer as a mastermind trap engineer, quickly gave way to an enduring horror franchise where the traps got gnarlier and the timeline increasingly more convoluted once Jigsaw and favorite apprentice

A first look at the Showtime Original Series “The Curse” has been provided this afternoon with the official teaser trailer, and we’ve learned the series will premiere on November 10. From what we understand, the series will premiere on Showtime on November 12, but you’ll be able to stream it on Paramount+ With Showtime beginning

After helping to pioneer Italy’s budding giallo genre throughout the 1970s with influential titles like The Bird with the Crystal Plumage, The Cat o’ Nine Tails, Four Flies on Grey Velvet, and Deep Red, Dario Argento took a brief sabbatical from the lurid thrillers to explore supernatural elements in Suspiria and Inferno. When the latter

Spooky season is not complete without a haunted house and its share of lonesome ghosts.

Warning: The following contains spoilers for The Nun and The Nun II.  Of all the supernatural beings in The Conjuring Universe, few are as purely evil as the Nun (Bonnie Aarons). This supernatural entity is a demon known as Valak who takes different forms in order to exploit the weaknesses of its targeted victims. The

It’s been a while since we’ve gotten a tried and true, serious-in-tone creature feature, or at least one in which the creature in question is a real-world animal and not a fictitious monster. This sub-genre often finds its roots planted firmly in horror comedy or, intentionally or not, camp. So it’s refreshing that Infested (formerly titled Vermin),

Few fears are more universal than claustrophobia. Many of us have probably experienced that twinge of anxiety when elevator doors close behind us, but few of us have likely ever been down in the depths of a coal mine, where the elements at play have a potentially fatal outcome. This fear is what writer/director Mathieu

Andrew Cumming’s feature directorial debut, The Origin, executes its high concept with impressive ambition. Not only does it travel back 45,000 years in time to tell the survival thriller, but Cummings and screenwriter Ruth Greenberg developed a fictional language for its characters. Combined with a handsomely shot production, it ensures that The Origin beguiles, though it struggles to mine suspense

Creator Mike Flanagan’s latest and final series collaboration with Netflix, “The Fall of the House of Usher,” takes on the works of Edgar Allan Poe. Much like “The Haunting of Bly Manor,” Flanagan’s latest uses a classic short story as the central narrative framework to remix a variety of Poe’s macabre poems and short stories but with Flanagan’s signature

Writer/Director Brian Duffield (Spontaneous, Love and Monsters) continues his streak of housing affecting metaphors within thrilling genre features with his latest, No One Will Save You. In this instance, a woman alienated from her community finds herself contending with highly intelligent, hostile aliens from another planet. In Duffield’s capable hands, a journey through self-forgiveness gets transformed into a propulsive,

The Last Video Store, set to premiere this Friday at Fantastic Fest, pays tribute to the format wars and the video stores of yesteryear through a cursed VHS tape that unleashes terror. Bloody Disgusting has been provided with a clip that demonstrates a horrific fate far worse than late fees for store employees and patrons.

Based on the tales of Edgar Allan Poe, Mike Flanagan‘s final series for Netflix is “The Fall of the House of Usher,” and a 2-minute sneak preview clip has arrived today. The limited series from Intrepid Pictures is “based on multiple works from Poe,” and Netflix recently announced that “Usher” will premiere on October 12, 2023.

Just over one year after the Deadite-slaying began, the developers of Evil Dead: The Game have made the unfortunate announcement that no new content will be created for the game. The team at Saber writes in an official statement, “Today, we have made the decision not to pursue the development of new content for Evil
