In 2019, indie horror filmmaker Larry Fessenden reimagined Frankenstein with a contemporary lens in Depraved. His follow-up, Blackout, takes his exploration of classic movie monsters further with a unique take on the Wolf Man. Alcoholism and lycanthropy afflict an artist in Blackout, the title’s dual meaning apparent, but Fessenden takes it a step further by exploring the volatile nature of a community and the catastrophic yet absurdly funny toll a monster’s destruction wreaks on a small town. Talbot Falls artist Charley (Alex Hurt) is at a significant crossroads. His binge drinking has made a mess of his...

Cillian Murphy plays the lead character in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. An amazing actor in a movie that Nolan himself called “kind of a horror movie“? We’ll take it. So, in that spirit we thought we’d take a stroll through the Peaky Blinders actor’s resume in both the thriller and horror genres. Hell, the last time Nolan and Murphy worked together they created one of the best horror aspects of The Dark Knight trilogy with the Scarecrow character! Let’s take a look through Cillian Murphy’s career in the horror/thriller genres… 28...

Picking up right where the previous episode of “The Walking Dead: Dead City” left off, Maggie and co. dig deeper through the Methane-filled sewers of New York City while Negan and Marshall Perlie Armstrong (Gaius Charles) venture off on their own journey through the city.

Meanwhile, the Croat (Željko Ivanek) takes a rage-fueled trip to an...

A new trailer and poster reveal below gives a glimpse at the weird, funny, grotesque blend of genres in the latestby writer/director Zach Clark (Little Sister).

It’s one thing to watch someone try to survive a gauntlet of supernatural scares, but quite another to actually experience these horrors for yourself. This is precisely why video games are so effective at serving up genuine moments of terror, as the hands-on approach allows players to become fully immersed in these digital nightmares. And when it comes to horror games, what better way of scaring players than trapping them in a good old-fashioned haunted house? From Luigi’s Mansion to Spooky’s Jump-Scare Mansion, countless developers have tried their hand at...

My to-be-read pile is shamefully big, but that never stops me from adding more. I cherish getting lost in a good book, but a novel is more of a commitment than chipping away at movies on my to-watch list. The conspicuously titled 101 Horror Books to Read Before You’re Murdered may make that stack of books to read even more intimidating, but it also helps narrow down which tales of terror are worthy of being moved to the top. Following a foreword by Bird Box author Josh Malerman, writer Sadie...
