Most sequels only have to worry about being faithful to the movie that came before it, but that’s not the case for Doctor Sleep (read my review). The new film from Mike Flanagan (The Haunting of Hill House) is a canonical sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s horror classic The Shining but also strives to remain as
Survival horror games don’t necessarily have to involve combat to be scary.

Created in 15 days for a horror

It Came From the ‘80s is a series that pays homage to the monstrous, deadly, and often slimy creatures that made the ‘80s such a fantastic decade in horror. In John Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness, science and religion collide. Science fiction meets horror. It’s the second film in what Carpenter referred to as his Apocalypse Trilogy,
Before Rob Zombie‘s feature directorial debut House of 1000 Corpses was saved by Lionsgate, Universal Pictures had financed the film that introduced horror fans to the Firefly family. Zombie had promoted the hell out of the film, which would be held captive at Universal for quite some time. I recall Zombie even selling really cool
Sometimes as a fan base we have to wait a ridiculously long time for more from our favorite movies or TV shows. Clerks and Clerks 2. Twin Peaks. Just to name a few. It’s been 10 years since Michael Dougherty gave us TRICK ‘R Treat and introduced the world to the character synonymous with Halloween,

Beer and horror films usually don’t mix when it comes to the slasher genre. Most of the time if you enjoy a cold one you end up on the wrong end of some kind of sharp, metal implement and you have a very very bad day. However, in this new Brazillian television commercial, we see
