Here on Bloody Disgusting we’ve published multiple articles (find them all here) covering *our* favorite horror movies of last year, but it’s always interesting to take a look at year-in-review roundups from other places as well. Letterboxd, for example, kicks off each new year by spotlighting the previous year’s top hits, and their full 2024 Year in

So here’s a weird one. It was reported back in December that Austin Butler would be playing the role of Patrick Bateman in a new movie adaptation of the Bret Easton Ellis novel American Psycho for director Luca Guadagnino (Suspiria, Challengers), but those reports are now being disputed by none other than Bret Easton Ellis
Like Jaws to shark movies and The Exorcist to possession flicks, any dinosaur-related media will inevitably be compared to 1993’s Jurassic Park. While this makes a lot of sense, with Spielberg’s classic bringing the prehistoric beasts to life in new and exciting ways that previous filmmakers could only dream of (and that future filmmakers would
Have you ever noticed that some concepts are so prevalent in popular culture that you’re already familiar with them long before you engage with the stories that spawned them? For example, I can almost guarantee that your very first exposure to vampires was not through a vampire movie, but instead something more innocuous like a
War is hell, and it’s been that way for a very long time. However, when it comes to moviemaking, many filmmakers have difficulty portraying large scale combat as anything but thrilling. This accidental glorification of collective violence is especially true when it comes to epic tales of historical warfare, with films like Braveheart and even
Coming off the heels of Half-Life 2‘s 20th anniversary last year, there was a rumour floating around leading up to The Game Awards that Valve was going to announce Half-Life 3. That obviously never happened, but as always, that doesn’t stop the rumour mill for a third entry. Case in point: Michael Shapiro, the voice
Stephen King and Entertainment Weekly go back a long ways. The pair’s relationship began with a handful of grouchy letters to the editor in which King excoriated the magazine’s film critics. Kin’s barbed words, however, only motivated the outlet to recruit the author — after he reviewed a Harry Potter book for them, the editors
From Italian master of horror Lucio Fulci (The Beyond, Zombie), Don’t Torture a Duckling will be released on 4K Ultra HD on March 25 via Arrow Video.

There have been innumerable films titled some variation of Til Death Do Us Part, several of which are already streaming on Tubi. Writer Chris Rhetts differentiates his wedding-themed thriller by co-opting action movie tropes, wherein the protagonist, event planner Vanessa (Virginia Ma), is forced by the villain Terrance Bruckner (Maxwell Almono) to do his bidding
2024 was a crowded year for television that had its share of misfires, but among the droves of disposable content was some stellar horror programming – from “Evil” to “The Creep Tapes” – that celebrates the genre’s versatility. Television has reached a curious inflection point where what was once heralded as the medium’s Golden Age

It should likely come as no surprise that the upcoming Valentine’s Day slasher Heart Eyes received an appropriate slasher rating, and that R-rated stamp comes ahead of the film’s full trailer arriving next week. The slasher is set to arrive in theaters on February 7, 2025. Heart Eyes has been rated “R” for “strong violence

A new year is upon us, and with it, another “Where is it??” for Retroware’s Toxic Crusaders. It looked to be coming this past Fall (with the demo making that seem all the more likely), but that obviously never happened. So what’s the deal? Retroware has heard your cries, and has released a new development
When it comes to Best Of lists, they’re never very difficult to research and write when centered around the horror genre. Any time I hear people bemoaning the lack of quality present in modern-day horror, I end up more confused than anything else. Ignoring the bevy of quality mainstream horror releases this year, the horror
According to legend, apocryphal or not, the Commissioner of the US Patent Office (of all people) once declared that “everything that can be invented has been invented.” This was in the year 1899 for reference and so, aging like milk under a baking hot sun, his spurious prophecy ended up heralding a century that was

It was an unconventional strategy. Focus Features made the bold choice to release Robert Eggers’ period horror movie Nosferatu on Christmas Day, offering up a fresh take on a gothic horror classic as a bit of counterprogramming against traditional holiday fare. And it was a gamble that paid off, with Nosferatu sinking its fangs into

It was another bustling, not to mention fruitful, year for horror. And because the amount of new horror releases is staggering, especially when looking beyond the popular and commercial side, it is very understandable if a lot of titles flew under radars. So, like previous years, the objective of this end-of-year list is to bring
