To say the very least, 2020 has been an interesting year for anyone even tangentially involved in the film business – and, for that matter, for literally everyone. Period. After a couple months of steady theatrical releases, including Underwater and The Invisible Man, the entire industry was brought to a screeching halt when it became

It has been a tumultuous year for the music industry, but there was never a loss of resiliency or creativity. This year, the Lovecraft Country soundtrack made history by becoming the first-ever series scored by an online orchestra, with players from Metropolitan Opera, New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony and the Toronto Symphony recording solo in

Happy New Year, Fiends! It all ends right here, right now, on this week’s episode of Nightmare On Film Street. Join your horror hosts Jon & Kim as they kick 2020 to the curb and welcome another pre-apocalyptic year with a double-feature of post-apocalyptic cinema. First up, we’re hopping on board a zombie-infested train ride

Finding positivity in the infamous year that is 2020 may seem like a challenge, especially in the film world. Ever since the pandemic became an unfortunate factor in our lives, one of the many side effects has been the rampant pushbacks of anticipated films to later dates, including horror films like A Quiet Place: Part

There’s never been a more brilliant, groundbreaking TV series than the Rod Serling-created “The Twilight Zone,” which was WAY ahead of its time back in the 50s/60s. The original series ran for five seasons from 1959 to 1964, and it’s still blowing minds all these years later. If you’re in the mood to revisit those

After crushing their Kickstarter goal, and enjoying a successful release back in October, what’s left for October Night Games? How about some holiday content to help send you into the new year? Available now as a free content update, “Freezing Moon” is a new game mode that is faster, more intensive and challenging than the

The vibe of family reunions has shifted significantly this year, no question about it. In a country that has been encouraged to stay home for the holidays, the traditional get-togethers for many families have either been called off or are being held in spite of guidelines. Even for families that are still meeting up this

A few days ago, NECA celebrated Christmas by providing a first-look preview of their upcoming action figure line based on Amazon’s “The Boys,” and we admittedly missed the reveal until today. In the event that anyone else did too, well, better late than never… right?! Check out NECA’s Homelander and Starlight action figures above and

Álex de la Iglesia is a filmmaker with a reputation for insanely dark humor, stark violence, and an impressive ability to blend genres. All of which are on full display in cult hits The Day of the Beast, Witching and Bitching, The Last Circus, and more. The acclaimed horror filmmaker now turns his focus on television, spinning an

2020 has been an absolute beast of a year in every capacity. The movie industry faced unprecedented upheaval and solutions are still being found on how to best release movies. This year has still featured some big movies, but there are a number of highly anticipated horror releases like Candyman, Halloween Kills, and Spiral: The

If there was any movie that came along and truly captured the zeitgeist this year it was Rob Savage’s Host, filmed during the pandemic, released during the pandemic, and taking place entirely across a Zoom conversation between a lovable group of friends. It was truly a horror movie for 2020, both perfectly timed and genuinely scary

The end of 2020 is finally here! Here’s to hoping the new year brings a return to normalcy, at least in some capacity, and a lot of great new horror. There’s a handful of titles themed around New Year’s Eve when it comes to holiday horror. Movies like New Year’s Evil, Terror Train, and End of Days up the

Welcome to Unveiling The Mind. This bi-monthly column explores psychological horror and representations of mental illness within the genre. Coming into my first viewing of Black Swan in 2010, I had no idea what I was about to see. At the time, I knew little of Darren Aronofsky‘s work. I had seen Requiem for a Dream

Over 20 years after the release of the Wes Craven-produced franchise starter Wishmaster, we’ve learned this morning that a brand new novelization is now on the way! The press release explains, “Written by the creator of Hellraiser 2, 3 & 4, Peter Atkins, and directed by one third of the legendary KNB Effects Group, Robert

“You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder.” That observation from Samuel L. Jackson’s character Russell Franklin from the film Deep Blue Sea may not be scientifically correct, but he is right about

We really haven’t heard much of anything in regards to Endnight Games’ Sons of The Forest since it was briefly revealed back at last year’s Game Awards. Well, that (sort of) changes with a new trailer for the game, which adds more speculation as to what fans can expect once the game arrives, purportedly next

This Saturday we’re featuring a full day of horror shorts and anthologies on Bloody Disgusting TV, kicking things off with a Bloody Bites marathon featuring 11 episodes jam packed with short horror films.

Christmas is the time of year that everyone gathers around the TV and partakes in wacky Christmas capers or sickly-sweet Christmas romance (I think some people worship and spend time with loved ones, but I was raised Jewish. We went to the movies and watched TV). Personally, I never got into Christmas movies (probably the

The theatrical release slate might have been limited this year, but it didn’t slow down horror in the slightest. Even with our most anticipated titles postponed, 2020 still delivered great genre offerings, and with it, a ton of great movie posters. A movie trailer has an average of two minutes’ worth of highlight footage to

You always knew he’d call back. Bob Clark’s horror masterpiece Black Christmas has now been remade two times, most recently by Sophia Takal just last year, but those two films hardly aimed to recapture the eerie holiday creepiness of the 1974 proto-slasher. Filmmaker Dave McRae, however, is looking to do just that with his film It’s Me,

You’ll mostly find family-friendly holiday classics like Home Alone, Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story on your television this week, but SYFY is going in a bit of a different direction. All Christmas day, SYFY will be airing holiday and winter-set horror movies including Santa Jaws and this year’s brand new movies Toys of Terror

Formative Fears is a column that explores how horror scared us from an early age, or how the genre contextualizes youthful phobias and trauma. From memories of things that went bump in the night, to adolescent anxieties made real through the use of monsters and mayhem, this series expresses what it felt like to be a

George Miller is currently developing a Mad Max: Fury Road spinoff movie centered on Charlize Theron‘s Imperator Furiosa character, with The Witch and The New Mutants star Anya Taylor-Joy taking over the role. It’s a prequel simply titled Furiosa at this time, and tonight we’ve learned that Warner Bros. has already handed the film a release date. Furiosa is currently set for release

The trailer for Mike P. Nelson‘s (The Domestics) Wrong Turn, a fresh take on the cult slasher from 2003, was released just last week, and we also debuted the first poster art plus a series of images in the wake of that trailer drop. This week we’ve got another new poster to share, this one from

One name that’s been synonymous with the Alien franchise from the very beginning is David Giler, a key figure in the behind the scenes creation of Ridley Scott’s sci-fi/horror classic and one of the film’s producers. He went on to produce every single installment in the Alien film franchise. Sadly, we’ve learned this week that

We had recently learned that Morgan Creek was developing a reboot of The Exorcist and it looks like Blumhouse is on board the project as well, The Observer reports tonight. According to the site, David Gordon Green (Halloween) is in talks to direct! The Observer is referring to the project as a “sequel,” it’s interesting
