In one of the more “didn’t see that coming” leaks, those PS5 owners wondering just how long Microsoft would have exclusivity over GSC Game World’s S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 now have an answer, thanks to the ongoing Epic Games vs. Apple lawsuit. Thanks to the PS5 subreddit (with help from the legal research website Court Listener), someone

A few months back, we told you about developers Austin Schaeffer, Cyrus Byrd and Pete Goodfellow and their upcoming Dino Crisis-inspired Survival Horror game Compound Fracture. The team recently dropped a new update in the form of a new gameplay video. The five-minute video in question not only shows off that retro PS1-style we all

The shark remains the reigning champ of aquatic horror, dominating the subgenre more than any other oceanic creature. Alligators, crocodiles, and mutated fish make up another large percentage of an already shallow pool. Then there’s cryptids and sea creatures, of which horror always has room for more.

The standout highlight of the new Mortal Kombat movie is the long-running feud between Sub-Zero (Joe Taslim) and Scorpion (Hiroyuki Sanada) which book-ends the film with two fight scenes that take place hundreds of years apart. Sub-Zero and Scorpion are of course mortal enemies, and it’s Scorpion who ultimately ends up defeating his adversary. What’s

With Leigh Thorne and Ruben Abreu‘s Silent Hill: Road of Guilt confirmed for a September 24th release (the exact date of Silent Hill 2‘s release date), the duo are heavily into editing the film.

The last we heard about Sony’s live-action Masters of the Universe feature film was that it had been delayed back in January of last year, and a new date was never provided. Not surprisingly, it looks like the project is no longer even moving forward as originally planned, with attached star Noah Centineo reportedly no

With the success of The Witcher Netflix series, it looks like Paradox Interactive is looking to cash in with the World of Darkness universe in much the same way.

A family moves into a new home with a gruesome past, which still lingers in many ways. That simple setup could apply to any number of horror movies set within a haunted house. Things Heard & Seen opts for a slightly altered approach that adds true crime and drama to the fold, with mixed results. Netflix’s latest

Fresh off the box office success of Godzilla vs. Kong, THR is reporting that Adam Wingard (V/H/S, You’re Next, The Guest, Blair Witch) is re-teaming with Warner Bros. and Legendary for their next MonsterVerse movie, which is big news because we had previously been unsure if the MonsterVerse would even be continuing beyond this year’s

The box office is officially back, thanks to Warner Bros., and what we’ve learned is that we have a very abstract view behind a film’s release. While Godzilla vs. Kong is a global box office hit, what truly made the difference is the deal between Warners and HBO Max, who reportedly paid in the $200M-$250M

While it’s safe to say that Capcom probably will never top their TV ad for the original Resident Evil 2, they can try with an entirely different route with Resident Evil Village.

Tackling a new adaptation of a beloved video game franchise still going strong since 1992 sounds like a Herculean task. With a little over twenty games across platforms, nearly one hundred characters, decades of mythology, and a cherished 1995 feature adaptation, the intersection to appease both longtime fans and brand new gets blurred quickly. Mortal

Jason Reitman‘s Ghostbusters: Afterlife, a sequel to the original classic(s), is currently set for theatrical release on November 11, 2021, and as we recently learned thanks to an adorable clip, the movie will feature mischievous mini versions of the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man that are being referred to as “Mini-Pufts.” As it turns out, Bill Murray loves them

A few years back, “Zombie Skittles” hit store shelves for Halloween, with candies tasting like “rotten zombie” randomly mixed into each bag. In other words, you didn’t know if you were about to taste the rainbow or, well, human flesh… until it was too late. A similar gimmick is being put to use this coming

For years, the bug-eyed, giant animatronic characters of Five Nights at Freddy’s (also known by the acronym, FNAF) have been terrorizing children and adults alike.
