Rosemary’s Baby effectively tackled the horrors of pregnancy and established its tropes so well that it’s difficult to avoid drawing comparisons in subsequent horror movies centered around the subject. The premise and initial establishing sequences suggest that False Positive would offer another modernized retelling of sorts, right down to the isolating mistrust. Yet co-writers John Lee and Ilana

Played by Cillian Murphy in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy, and later Charlie Tahan and David W. Thompson in the “Gotham” television series, DC villain Dr. Jonathan Crane (aka Scarecrow) is headed back to the small screen in the upcoming third season of HBO Max’s “Titans,” with actor Vincent Kartheiser taking over the iconic role this time

“Werewolves have guns… Get revenge?” This comical line marked the only words that the aspiring writer and werewolf fan could come up with in Josh Ruben’s feature debut, Scare Me. It seems kismet that Ruben’s follow-up, Werewolves Within, works as a spiritual progression of his debut, putting a werewolf at the center of a murder mystery

With the exception of The Happening, every single M. Night Shyamalan thriller to date has been released with a PG-13 rating, so it’s no surprise that his latest movie is following suit. Shyamalan’s new thriller Old has been rated PG-13 for… “Strong violence, disturbing images, suggestive content, partial nudity and brief strong language.” Universal will

Sean King O’Grady‘s feature directorial debut works like Pandora’s box of horror. Tension already exists for the dysfunctional foursome trapped together within a cramped space, but endless complications douse that tension with gasoline. Hope dangles like a tiny beacon amidst the relentless wave of obstacles. We Need to Do Something asks its audience to use their imagination for

The Scream franchise will return to theaters on January 14, 2022, and we know Scream fans the world over are hungry for any and all updates on the project. This latest one comes courtesy of directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett (Ready or Not, V/H/S), letting us know on their Instagram pages this week that the picture is locked and

That sneaky New Blood Interactive not only showcased some of its awesome games in a sizzle reel at the PC Gaming Show, it slipped a few unannounced ones in for good measure.

It hasn’t yet been officially announced, but it looks like we are indeed getting a fourth season of Netflix‘s animated series “Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous,” Colin Trevorrow teases. Trevorrow, the director of Jurassic World and the upcoming Jurassic World: Dominion, tweeted out a response to a fan’s question this morning, seemingly confirming Season 4. Trevorrow

One of the many benefits of genre storytelling is the way horror evokes extreme empathy. Watching a character confront adversity in horror offers a uniquely communal experience that builds understanding that bridges all walks of life. Shapeless explores the all-consuming addictive behaviors of an eating disorder, using psychological body horror to convey the toll it can

Extraction has players assemble their team from the 18 Operators from Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege to launch

Last year, developer rose-engine unveiled their pixel-based survival horror title Signalis, which seemed like a combo of survival horror and anime. The game’s back with a new trailer that kicked off the Tribeca Games Spotlight at E3, showing off more aesthetic goodies. It’s already been covered that the game takes inspiration from classic survival horror

Saber Interactive’s action-strategy adaptation of World War Z is the latest title to get a current-gen upgrade, as well as a bevy of new content. Per IGN, World War Z: Aftermath will be hitting PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC later this year for $39.99 (existing WWZ owners can get it as a $19.99 upgrade),

The Persistence is one of my favorite games on PSVR, and I always felt it was a shame more people couldn’t experience it somehow. Happily, the game got a regular non-VR version on last-generation consoles and now comes to PS5 and PC in better shape than ever with a new ‘Enhanced’ edition. Out today, The

Home invasion thrillers are inherently terrifying for corrupting the private space designated most for comfort and safety. The terror compounds when the home dweller can’t fight back easily; their vulnerability exacerbates the suspense tenfold—vulnerabilities like blindness. See for Me isn’t the first home invasion thriller to center around a blind character trying to evade the dangerous men

We’ve been promised the first gameplay footage out of Summer Game Fest tomorrow (June 10), but up first we’ve been provided with the official art for Evil Dead: The Game today!

Video games have been a constant source of joy in my life, but my enjoyment hardly expanded into the horror genre for the longest time. My earliest memories tend to revolve around the various Mario games I owned on the Nintendo 64, like Super Mario 64, Super Mario Kart, Mario Party 2, and Super Smash

Would my horror journalist accreditation be revoked if I didn’t update my ranking of Warner Brothers’ Conjuring Universe (“Conjurverse,” to me) with every new canonical release? Of course not (because that’s not a real thing), but why not dissect totem dolls, sisterly sinners, and more possessions than Ash Williams could shake his boomstick at. What

Hot on the heels of the release of the remaster of Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne, fans waiting for Shin Megami Tensei V won’t have to wait long.

As we learned last year, a third A Quiet Place movie is already in the works, with Jeff Nichols (Midnight Special) on board to direct a tale based on an idea by John Krasinski. Tonight, Paramount has dated that third installment for March 31, 2023! Deadline notes, “The pic is very early in development and

And there’s nothing we love more than “very Sam Raimi.” When Scott Derrickson (Sinister, Doctor Strange) stepped away from the project due to creative differences, Sam Raimi stepped in to direct Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness for Marvel, a perfect fit given Raimi’s history with Marvel superhero movies and of course, horror movies.

Dementia Part II, the latest Bloody Disgusting x Dark Star Pictures collaboration, was born from a dare out of Chicago’s Cinepocalype Film Festival. The gauntlet was thrown; producers JD Lifshitz and Raphael Margules were challenged to produce a feature-length midnight movie from concept to finished product in one month so that it could make its

The three-book series Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is still fondly remembered forty years after the publication of the first installment, giving nightmares to multiple generations of children with classic horror tales that were elevated by truly chilling illustrations.
