This Friday, October 15th, horror fans will finally be able to lay their eyes on Halloween Kills, the twelfth installment in the forty-three year old franchise and the direct follow-up to 2018’s series reboot Halloween.

Ghostface, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox), and Dewey Riley (David Arquette) are all back in the new Scream, arriving in theaters on January 14, 2022. So, too, is original screenwriter Kevin Williamson, this time as executive producer. But the trailer makes it clear that fans can expect a new generation to get brought into the
Introductions are never easy. Striking a balance between making a good first impression but also the impression you intended to set still very much eludes me. “Did I talk too much?” “Did I talk enough?” “Have I presented myself in a way that this person will now spend the rest of their days resentful of
His name is Mr. Puzzles. And he wants you to be less alive.

Caaaaandy Caaaaaane. September was all over the map, with episodes on influential slow burn It Follows, A Nightmare on Elm Street‘s wacky “final” entry Freddy’s Dead, David Lynch’s surreal LA satire Mulholland Drive, and classic lesbian vampire film Dracula’s Daughter. Now that we’re into October, it’s time to bring out some big titles, starting with director John Dahl‘s

From Kylie Cosmetics, the spooky Kylie X Nightmare on Elm Street exclusive collection will be launching just in time for Halloween, on Tuesday,
Stephen King doesn’t really have a Halloween story. The holiday has certainly haunted his works — the Torrances arrive at the Overlook on October 31st, 11.22.63 returns to Derry for trick and treats (and meats), and Johnny Smith has a cheap Jekyll-and-Hyde mask in The Dead Zone — but there’s no true-blue Halloween tale within
It’s hard to keep a good Slasher down. With the cyclical nature of these movies being part of their appeal, it’s rare for studios to greenlight a definitive end to their popular franchises.

In a post-Scream world, it seems slasher fans expect and deserve more from their favorite style of horror. The sub-genre remains reliant on buckets of blood and gratuitous violence, of course, but an expectation of the unexpected has become the new tradition. Story structure and character has changed, shifting away from the virginal Final Girl
It seems that Konami is going to let its big three back out into the world in the near future, with a plethora of remasters, remakes, and new entries in production for the Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, and Castlevania series.

Alan Wake re-emerges from the darkness looking better than ever, and at the perfect time for reappraisal.
