The ride never ends, apparently. Despite Konami shooting down rumours of a new Silent Hill game, it would seem that something’s afoot thanks to prominent Japanese manga artist Suehiro Maruo. Spotted on Maruo’s Instagram were two conspicuous images. The first is a welcome sign of sorts with the words “Silent Hills” on it (and the

Years before Mike Flanagan took us back to the Overlook Hotel in last year’s Doctor Sleep, it had been announced that One Hour Photo director Mark Romanek would be directing a prequel to The Shining for Warner Bros., which was set to be titled The Overlook Hotel. This was back in 2014, though the project
Though we’ve almost completely exhausted apocalypse media suggestion lists purporting to help survive self-isolation, there’s one more flick that, for some baffling reason, hasn’t made the cut as a genre favourite. Never referenced, often forgotten, and perpetually scoffed at is the brilliant work of M. Night Shyamalan, master of the twist, with his film that
There’s certainly no shortage of vintage Elvira content out there to keep us entertained while we’re quarantined at home, and the Mistress of the Dark herself just shared a really fun throwback video that I had personally never seen before. The video comes courtesy of iWerks Entertainment, and from what I gather it was shown
Draw Distance has followed up their Vampire: The Masquerade – Coteries of New York with a new standalone expansion in Vampire: The Masquerade – Shadows of New York.

Blood, Satan, the occult, fighting off zombies, social chaos, violence, death— on the surface, these descriptors sound like your average indicators of our favorite horror movies, however, they’re just as representative of horror’s musical cousin equivalent: heavy metal. Just like metal horns and concerts pair so perfectly, these misfit subgenres have been tied together for
Launching last September, Microsoft has announced that it’s making the PC version of Gears 5 available for free until April 12. Much like how Steam offers free weekends for games, according to DSOGaming, this allows you to play both the game’s single-player campaign and its multiplayer mode. This comes on the heels of the announcement

The 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital release will include lenticular packaging as well as a 44-page collectible booklet, revealed by the graphic
With the arrival of the anticipated Photo Mode for Death Stranding, and because Hideo Kojima has stated in the past that he’d like to get into film production, a fan has taken it upon themselves to beat Kojima in there ever was to be a Death Stranding film. At least, in onesheet form. A Reddit
Remember that rumour involving Resident Evil 8 a few months back? Well, Dusk Golem is at it again on Twitter, this time apparently verified by Video Games Chronicle. Even still, temper your expectations (and your many grains of salt). According to the leak, Resident Evil 8 will release on current and next-gen consoles next year,
Before diving into this review I think there is something I should make perfectly clear – this wasn’t the movie I thought I was sitting down to watch. I thought I was going to be watching Xtro, which is what I thought Vinegar Syndrome was releasing. And I was very excited about it. Xtro is
Inscribed on Anthony Perkins’ urn in the Hollywood Hills are the words: “Don’t Fence Me In.” It’s a poignant choice for someone trapped by the blessing (and curse) of being Norman Bates. His performance in Psycho is ranked at #2 in AFI’s list of greatest villains of all time, behind Hannibal Lecter and ahead of
Much the same way HBO is temporarily offering up “True Blood” for free streaming, AMC is now allowing *everyone* to stream the first half of the current tenth season of “The Walking Dead” with no subscription of any kind required. That’s the first eight episodes of the show’s tenth season, which aired between October 6th,
We are living in strange, scary days. And I’m scared. I’m scared of what the COVID-19 pandemic is doing – and could yet do – to our world. To my country, my state, my city. My friends, my family, my parents. My wife. My kids. I’m scared of what could happen to people I know,
It’s Friday, and instead of getting down, you’ll probably want to be running, as the Resident Evil 3 remake drops today for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. To kick things off, Capcom have released the launch trailer for the follow-up to last year’s hit in the Resident Evil 2 remake. In addition, the trailer
Horror legend Robert Englund has joined the growing list of celebrities (including Shaun of the Dead‘s Simon Pegg and Nick Frost!) who have taken to social media to share fun Public Service Announcement videos while we’re all stuck at home to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus.

Yeon Sang-ho‘s Train to Busan is easily one of the best zombie films ever made and now the trailer for its sequel looks to up the ante tenfold. Well Go USA shares an action-packed and absolutely insane looking “teaser” trailer for Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula, which actually looks to further the zombie subgenre in
If the umpteenth delay of The New Mutants bums you out, or you’re just plain in the mood for something new on VOD, there’s an easy recommendation that scratches that itch for a genre-twist to superpowered origin stories – The Witch: Subversion. Now out on both Blu-ray and VOD, this thriller hailing from South Korea
Comics and video games seem to have a large section of overlap in themes at their most basic level. Both tend to rely on power fantasies, telling the stories of incredible heroes overcoming the odds in spectacular fashion. But the similarities in their story types doesn’t mean that moving from one genre to the other
Doom Eternal makes me feel like that hippo from Fantasia doing the “Dance of the Hours” in a stretched out tutu. We know the Doom Slayer is fast. Doom and Doom II: Hell on Earth were defined by their frantic strafing, kinetic blasting and breakneck speeds. We know the Doom Slayer is dangerous. This is
Sony Pictures is getting ahead of what looks to be a prolonged storm by shifting several of their films out of their summer and fall slots all the way to next year. Two affected are Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Marvel’s Morbius, both of which were slated for release this coming July. Ghostbusters: Afterlife will now open

Krzysztof Penderecki’s work earned him three Grammy wins throughout his career, most recently in 2017, and he was also nominated for two Primetime Emmys in the
Warning: spoilers ahead. One of the biggest shocks in the damn good tenth season of “The Walking Dead” came in episode 12 when Negan sliced Alpha’s throat and removed her head from her body. He then proceeded to hand deliver the head to Carol, revealing that a deal had been struck between the two at
Featured in Alvin Schwartz’s Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, the classic folk tale often referred to as “The Big Toe” has now been turned into a stop motion short simply titled Toe.
