With their 11th studio album ManiaCult having released last week, the band once again delivers a visceral presentation of bloodthirsty riffs, skull annihilating blast beats, and soul-splitting shrieks. Among their contemporaries, Aborted not only stands as one of the

The Temptations brand is back at it this Halloween season with a set of commercials promoting their new cat treat flavor called “Tasty Human.” Yes. Tasty. Human.  The commercials aim to remind you that, based on a study conducted in 2014 by researchers at the University of Edinburgh, your cat probably wants to eat you.

I forgot how hilarious Tom Hardy was in the first Venom, delivering a batshit insane performance right out of an 80s-style buddy comedy. With Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Hardy is back as Eddie Brock, who is of course also the alien symbiote known as Venom. Woody Harrelson, who popped up as Cletus Kasady in the

It’s already been an insanely packed year for genre offerings, and the Halloween season is about to compound that tenfold with some major anticipated releases still on the horizon.

In 1986, Stephen King was over horror. By then, he had given us killer teens, killer cars, killer cats, and killer vamps. No, despite the demand and the stack of receipts to prove it, The Master of Horror was hankering to close the door on the genre he conquered — only he didn’t see it

In a move so nice that they’re doing it twice, THQ Nordic has announced during their 10th Anniversary Showcase (after Sony had done it last week) Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed for PlayStation 5, as well as the Xbox Series and the PC via Steam. No release date was announced, but we do get two

Last year, we had All in Games! and developer Ovid Works grace us with their Kafka-inspired Metamorphosis, where you played as an insect.

Last week, we shared a list of Six of the Most Unique Movie Monsters that were created exclusively for the big screen.

Nicolas Cage described Prisoners of the Ghostland as “the wildest movie I’ve ever made.” Considering the actor’s list of genre credits, that’s an instant eyebrow-raising statement, and the plot description seems to back up that claim.

There’s been a Left 4 Dead-shaped hole in gaming for too long, and while there have been some attempts to fill it (World War Z and Aliens: Fireteam Elite for example), nothing has really come close to capturing that spirit. So who better to take a shot than a developer that had a hand in

Perhaps my favorite thing about BEESWAX’ GAMES’ SPOOKWARE is how it takes the crumb of an idea (Wario Ware but spooky) and runs with it to the point that it becomes something else entirely. SPOOKWARE started life as a brief microgame collection on itch.io, grew into a whole segment in one of DreadXP’s  Dread X Collections,
