Any fan of the pulpy genre publications of the 40s and 50s will tell you that comic-books have always had a love affair with horror. Unfortunately, the eventual rise of the Comics Code Authority meant that publishers could no longer depict mature subject matter in their books, resulting in an industry-wide shift to more accessible stories. This act of politically motivated censorship (which was mostly inspired by the ill-researched work of psychiatrist Fredric Wertham) is partially responsible for family-friendly superheroes dominating the once-diverse world of comics, something that the industry...

It’s a no-brainer that there needs to be more Lovecraft-inspired video games. Lucky for us, Lara Croft creator Toby Gard and developer Cathuria Games with publisher Raw Fury have just the thing with their upcoming cosmic horror adventure title Dream Cycle, which is slated to exit Steam Early Access on August 8 (that’s tomorrow, if you’re not sure). Described as an “ever-expanding procedural adventure through a cursed, shattered dimension”, and inspired by the series of short stories of the same name by Lovecraft, Dream Cycle puts you in the role...

We all know how creepy the moments of trudging through Silent Hill were for many players, and it would seem that indie studio DarKnot Team has taken cues with their upcoming psychological horror title DarKnot. In a recent devlog post, the devs detailed more of the creepiness to come for the game, which will be headed to Steam Early Access very soon. Focusing on immersion and exploration, DarKnot sees you alone in an endless labyrinth of an abandoned city, with no recollection of this world or even of yourself. That...

In spite of its title, Road to Nowhere has a conclusive ending. And a powerful one, at that. Christopher Pike’s 1993 novel puts its troubled protagonist behind the wheel and shadows her every move and thought as she drives along the California coast one fateful night. The path ahead of her is unclear, but one thing’s for sure — Teresa’s life will never be the same after she picks up two hitchhikers along the way. In typical Pike fashion, Road to Nowhere starts off near the middle rather than at...

For found footage horror fans, Zachary Donohue’s 2013 feature debut The Den is often regarded as one of the scariest films in the subgenre and a pioneer of the screen life storytelling format. Using various computer- and app-based interactions to follow a graduate student being targeted by a vicious killer after witnessing a murder online, the film masterfully explores paranoia, surveillance, and the darkest sides of the Internet. For genre fans wanting to dive deeper into these still timely themes, Donohue has now returned with Pocket FM’s “Uncomfortably Numb,” a...

There was a time when it was more likely for a successful foreign film to be remade in English than see a proper release in America. From the decade-long ban on Kinji Fukasaku’s Battle Royale to the Lovecraftian Valdemar Legacy films never getting an official Region 1 release, being a fan of overseas genre thrills used to be much harder. It was only recently that mainstream media began to shine a spotlight on alternative world cinema, with films like the Academy-Award-winning Parasite proving that modern audiences are more inclined to...
