Last week we shared an incredible series of videos in which popular Disney attractions were recreated digitally using PS4’s Dreams software. The first batch included Disneylands’s Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye, as well as VR ride-throughs of Space Mountain and one of our personal favorites, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. These mind-blowing videos also

The game is also being developed for the Nintendo Switch. Focusing on a unique audio-visual style set in what’s called the Asmodev

id Software’s Quake is a classic of the genre. No question about it. And while subsequent entries have surpassed the multiplayer mayhem of the original, Quake can still garner attention. So much so, that for this year’s QuakeCon, id Software are giving it away for free! To celebrate 25 years, Bethesda are giving away the

With this year’s QuakeCon taking place online, it only makes sense that DOOM Eternal’s upcoming expansion gets some attention in the form of a new trailer. During the QuakeCon at Home opening live stream, Bethesda Softworks and developer id Software released the teaser trailer for “The Ancient Gods, Part One”. Not much info to go

When was the last time you really let go? Created by Dennis Kelly and Felix Barrett, HBO’s “The Third Day” is coming in September, and it’s taking the unique approach of being told in two parts, across six episodes. “Summer” follows Sam, a man drawn to a mysterious Island off the British coast, who encounters

Not unlike Fede Alvarez’s Don’t Breathe, a group of young friends invade the wrong home in The Owners, which has Maisie Williams (The New Mutants) leading the cast. Based on the graphic novel, RLJE will bring the film to select theaters/Digital/On Demand September 4. You’ll find the official trailer below, along with new poster art.

Horror is one of the trickiest genres to master in any aspect of fiction. Even when the discussion of subjective horror is left out, horror is at its best when the artists behind their respective projects not only understand how to make something aesthetically scary, but there must also come an understanding of what makes

Originally slated for a release this month, Devolver Digital and Croteam have announced that Serious Sam 4 has unfortunately hit a bump, and as a result, will be pushed back to a September 24th release.

At Sony’s State of Play earlier today, 505 Games and Remedy have announced that the next Control DLC known as “AWE” will launch on August 27 across all available platforms for $14.99,

Last we heard, the seventh Tremors movie is still on track for release in October, and we’ve learned via the MPAA today that it’s been given an official title and a PG-13 rating. Formerly titled Tremors: Island Fury, it’s now titled Tremors: Shrieker Island! That title is in reference to the Shriekers, a recurring franchise

Walkabout Games have released a second developer diary for Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Heart of the Forest, this time focusing on what motivated the project in the first place.

Earlier today, WarnerMedia held their virtual Television Critics Association panel for upcoming HBO series “Lovecraft Country,” which comes from Misha Green, Jordan Peele and J.J. Abrams and is set to premiere on August 16. During the conversation, first brought to our attention by Eric Goldman, Green teased A Nightmare on Elm Street‘s influence on the show. AOL provides us

If you’ve got retro shooters on the brain (and be honest, who doesn’t these days?), you’ll be pleased to know that Saibot Studios’ Hellbound has finally arrived, and is on Steam for $14.99 USD.

Paul W.S. Anderson is on board to executive produce and direct the pilot episode of a “Mimic” television series, Deadline reports tonight, which will adapt the same Donald A. Wollheim-penned short story that Guillermo del Toro brought to the big screen in 1997. The project is set up at Miramax Television, with Jim Danger Gray (“Orange

The 2007 killer croc movie Black Water drew inspiration from a true story in which a pregnant woman, her boyfriend, and her sister were terrorized by a crocodile in a Northern Australian mangrove swamp.

“Evil has a way of looking nice and shiny on the outside.” Coming in the wake of 1995’s anthology and its direct-to-video sequel from 2018 is Universal Pictures Home Entertainment’s Tales from the Hood 3, and we’ve got a teaser clip tonight. The film’s cast includes horror legend Tony Todd, and the Candyman star is featured in

There’s something vastly appealing, on an international scale, about giant monster movies. For nearly as long as film has existed, there’s been massive-sized beasts decimating cities and terrorizing those in its path. Time only proves that you can’t keep a good monster down, as they’ve been resurrected, rebooted, remade, and pitted against each other with

Chunky Knit Sweater. After episodes on I Know What You Did Last Summer, May, What Lies Beneath and The Old Dark House, we’re just about ready to close the book on July 2020. First, however, we’ve got reason to celebrate: it’s the 35th anniversary of Tom Holland‘s Fright Night! This one is important to both

Practicing your social isolation? It would certainly kill the arcades these days (if they still existed). Younger gamers probably never experienced the phenomenon that was the arcade. Before it was eclipsed by console gaming in the mid-90s, the arcade was the place to play some amazing video games, including some great horror titles. Some of

Hard to believe that Capcom had what appeared to be a hot new franchise on its hands with Dead Rising back in 2006. The thrill of Dawn of the Dead in video game form, combined with some great technology at the time, seemed like something that begged to be expanded upon. Flash forward almost 15

In spite of the various mods (such as this one) you can grab for Alien: Isolation, it’s still a shame that it was never officially implemented. Shaftesbury Lucid Inc looks to fill that void with their recently-released sci-fi horror game, WREST, which is available on Steam, HTC Vive and the Oculus Rift. WREST throws you

Some more sad news here in 2020, as we’ve learned tonight that actor Wilford Brimley, known to horror fans as Blair in John Carpenter’s The Thing, has passed away at age 85. Brimley had been sick for two months with a kidney ailment, NY Times reports. Wilford Brimley’s Hollywood career began with a role in

The Marvel Cinematic Universe may have popularized the use of post-credits scenes, but they’ve been around for decades. One of the earliest appearances of the post-credit scene, also referred to as a stinger, is from Night of the Living Dead. Its use picked up speed in the ‘80s and continued to gain momentum until the unstoppable

NECA has been having a lot of fun this year making Gremlins toys based on vintage marketing materials for the film, and the latest one celebrates Christmas… Gremlins style. Based on classic marketing and newspaper ads, the figure puts Stripe in a Santa suit! The figure looks to include a sack, a candy cane and

Any time Lovecraft is involved in video games, you know that it’s worth at least a look. And in the case of Ares Dragonis’ The Shore, that goes double for the graphics. Seriously, this looks gorgeous. Originally available on itch.io (where you can download a free demo), the full game is getting the Steam treatment

It’s not a project we’ll likely be covering beyond this bit of news but we figured all the Bruce Campbell fans out there would be excited to hear that the horror icon has signed on to star in political dark-comedy thriller 18 1/2, providing the voice of Richard Nixon! The Wrap broke the news tonight

Left for Dead. Back for Vengeance. Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive trailer premiere for the brutal survival thriller Range Runners, from director Philip S.
