*Keep up with our ongoing end of the decade coverage here* At some point, remakes developed a bad reputation, even though quite a few of the best movies ever made were just new versions of a story already made into a movie before. And quite a few of those classic remakes are horror films, like
Recently it was reported that The Witcher was 3rd behind its sister show from Netflix Stranger Things, and Disney Plus’ Star Wars: The Mandalorian in terms of in-demand streaming, but the adaptation starring Henry Cavill is no longer in 3rd place.

Released 30 years ago this month in Japan, Castlevania 3: Dracula’s Curse can be seen as a return to form after the brief experimentation of Simon’s Quest. That’s not a knock against either game, though the RPG aspects of Simon’s Quest were seeds that would take almost a decade to come to fruition with Symphony
The holidays- New Year’s Eve, especially- are a time dedicated to excess. It’s only fitting that End of Days, an action-horror hybrid starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and set in the days leading up to New Year’s, honors the spirit of this time of year with a glut of over the top entertainment and outlandish narrative turns. Released
For the fans of the now-defunct Walking Dead comic book, you know how different the show is from the graphic novels. Certain things are kept out of the show that are in the book because let’s be honest, they are too graphic. Whereas other things, like the loss of Rick Grimes hand which played a
*Keep up with our ongoing end of the decade coverage here* Merging horror and comedy templates might be cinema’s greatest challenge. Tip the scales either way, risk driving away audiences who aren’t expecting a one-sided affair. Zombie outbreaks, household hauntings, even deadly children’s games can all benefit from comedic engagements so long as terror or
Recently Rob Zombie had some harsh words for his debut film House of 1000 Corpses, saying that all he could see if flaw after flaw. This time, however, it’s not a filmmaker criticizing the finished product, its the composer. Trent Reznor was one of the people behind the score for the hugely successful Netflix adaptation
In celebration of 35 years of Alien a few years back, NECA released the first-ever action figures of Ellen Ripley that featured the likeness and approval of Sigourney Weaver, and next year they’re taking their figure of Ripley from the original classic to a whole new level.

*Keep up with our ongoing end of the decade coverage here* Every decade has a certain set of horror movies that define it. That certain group of movies that hits the right tone, captures audiences perfectly and is the first thing that you think of when that particular time period comes up. For the 70s,
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. Poor Charley Brewster (William Ragsdale). Being a teen is awkward enough, but then there are the added struggles of appeasing a girlfriend while trying not to make
It takes a certain kind of television show or movie to invigorate a fanbase so much that they would attend a convention dedicated just to that content. Shows like Stranger Things, The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural all have had conventions dedicated to them, and let’s not forget how The Walking Dead inspired Walker Stalker. The
Now that Christmas is over, it’s time to treat yourself. Originally released back in 1986, the stuffed animal known as My Pet Monster is one of the all-time most beloved toys among horror/monster lovers, and he’s been brought back to life as an action figure here in 2019 by the toy company Super7. A “ReAction
Ever since the release of Max Payne, it was clear that Remedy Games was capable of creating a satisfying combat loop. Control (Bloody Disgusting’s Game of 2019) is no exception, giving players a delightful combination of tight gunplay and entertaining powers that keep the combat encounters fresh even when the enemy variety isn’t the strongest. There’s
Whenever someone says that a horror film is a “hard R” or “old school practical effects” it harkens us all back to a time when horror wasn’t laden with CGI or trying extra hard to make a film PG-13 to hit everyone that they can whilst skimping on the blood, gore, and unease. That’s why
Better watch out. Better not cry. Better stay up. Or else you might die. Like Santa Claus, Freddy Krueger sees you when you’re sleeping and knows when you’re awake – plus he totally wears a Christmas sweater – so that’s more than enough to make the Nightmare on Elm Street films perfect for holiday viewing… right?!
Spencer’s Gifts has everything you need to celebrate the holidays, and since today is Christmas Eve and all, they’ve offered us an exclusive coupon code for their ugly sweaters!

We have all seen those extended Christmas videos online, like Nick Offerman sitting in a comfy chair drinking whiskey and gazing at you. Or there is the extended Darth Vader burning on a pyre on Endor from the end of Return of the Jedi. But this one, this one is a little different. From the
Butcher Block is a weekly series celebrating horror’s most extreme films and the minds behind them. Dedicated to graphic gore and splatter, each week will explore the dark, the disturbed, and the depraved in horror, and the blood and guts involved.

*Keep up with our ongoing end of the year coverage here* 2019 delivered a surplus of top-notch horror releases with all the bleak subject matter, memorable jolts and gory kills a genre fan could ask for. Yet some of the year’s scariest moments were located in completely unexpected places – like upbeat superhero romps, brightly
There is nothing better than some amazing horror memorabilia. Like an original theatrical run poster of a classic film, or an item that an iconic character used. There are some folks who will pay any cost for an item like that, and that was proven today when an item was sold at auction for $204,000!
*Keep up with our ongoing end of the year coverage here* If all the articles (the endless, unyielding articles…) about physical media’s imminent demise are true, why was this list nearly impossible to narrow down? It’s known that the grass is a little greener for horror fans when it comes to home video, and devotees
I love Christmas horror movies. The juxtaposition of lighthearted, wholesome family traditions with unbridled murder and mayhem can either be a powerful message about religion, consumerism and/or family values or, if that’s too tall an order, just a wacky series of ironic contradictions. At their best, Christmas horror movies bring out the subversive streak in
Before you know it, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina will be hitting our small screens and we will be following Kiernan Shipka’s Sabrina into the pits of Hell for season 3. It’s been reported that Caliban, the Prince of Hell who will be challenging Sabrina for control of the Throne of Hell will be played
After confirming that Norman Reedus was in fact your character in the P.T. demo, Lance McDonald has been able to further crack the demo and allow players to venture outside of the house for the first time.

After doing almost all there is to do with Brutal DOOM, which had its version 21 released earlier this year, modder Sargeant Mark IV has gone back and created a newish mod called “Meatgrinder”. The mod is “newish” because it’s “meant to bring the dismemberments and explosions of Brutal Doom to a slaughterfest-friendly setting, in
The days of the creature feature aren’t as often as they used to be in the days of the geniuses like Ray Harryhausen and films like Clash of the Titans and One Million Years B.C. but coming from 20th Century Fox is director William Eubank’s new film, Underwater. The film stars Kristen Stewart and revolves
