If you missed out (or completely ignored) 2013’s Curse of Chucky, you missed out on a fantastic installment of one of the 80’s most iconic horror series: Child’s Play. It was recently announced that Chucky will stalk and stab once again in a new sequel that begins filming on January 9th, titled: Cult of Chucky. Filming will…
Some creative mad scientist re-imagined The Santa Clause as a horror movie in this new trailer. That’s about it. You’re probably really busy, so I won’t say much else except for “watch it.” It’s pretty sweet. So HAPPY WHATEVER, YOU GUYS! I don’t really give a shit what you celebrate, just have a happy one. Or at…
In the now-classic, ingenious opening scene of Wes Craven’s Scream, Casey Becker howls at her assailant that she’s seen Friday the 13th “20 goddamn times!” Pathetic, Casey! Because I’ve seen Scream 103 times. I know this because I was 12. And I counted. The genre subverting (and genre-saving!) film turned 20 this month, proving that…
Growing up, one had to actually go out into the world to find the content he or she wanted to watch (insane, right?). It was a world of rummaging racks of VHS tapes—clam shells, Be Kind Rewind stickers, and all! The greatest horror finds were always in a dusty, dank corner, untouched by the masses.…
The Wolf Man. The Howling. Ginger Snaps. Dog Soldiers. In terms of werewolf horror, there are certainly some great flicks to choose from. But a recent rewatch of An American Werewolf in London has once again blown my mind and I’ve got to say: it’s bar none the best werewolf movie. Ever. The movie follows two…

The horror-thriller, entitled Get Out, follows a black guy, Chris (Daniel Kaluuya), as he travels upstate with his white girlfriend, Rose (Allison Williams), to meet the parents. After being profiled and harassed by a racists cop, Chris’…
When Stephen King sold the film rights to The Shining, he imagined a cheerleader blonde-type playing the role of Wendy Torrance. A woman who couldn’t see evil coming her way because she had never faced hardships before in her life. That didn’t mean that King’s Wendy was some sort of second-rate victim – in the…
In Green Room, a punk band touring the Pacific Northwest in a van finds themselves playing a last minute gig at a club full of neo-Nazi skinheads in the middle of nowhere (Whoa. Stop right there. RED FLAG, YOU GUYS). The band, called The Ain’t Rights, is punk AF, so obviously they ignore said red…
***This post contains MAJOR SPOILERS from last night’s Bates Motel.*** Last night’s penultimate episode of Bates Motel‘s fourth season is, quite honestly, the reason I watch television. After viewing the episode entitled, “Forever,” my mind raced. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t pull away from Twitter. It was an episode that required processing and mourning before…
In the very first shots of Krampus, we are treated to a slow-mo montage of everything that’s wrong about the holidays: crowded stores, rioting customers, poor defenseless, trampled employees. It’s humanity’s disgusting habits on display during what should be the most joyful and spirited season of the year. On these grounds alone, it’s no wonder…
