Before booting up M3GAN for producers James Wan and Jason Blum, Gerard Johnstone made his feature directorial debut on Housebound, an awesome horror comedy that’s brimming with bloody fun. In the film, a young woman is forced to return to her childhood home after being placed under house arrest, where she suspects that something evil may be lurking. If you’ve never seen this horror classic, it’s now streaming on the Bloody Disgusting-powered SCREAMBOX! Megan previously wrote about Housebound a few years ago. Here’s her breakdown: “Written and directed by Gerard Johnstone, Housebound...

Bloody Disgusting’s M3GAN review is spoiler-free. From the moment M3GAN was introduced in trailers and danced her way into the internet’s collective hearts, the high-tech killer doll seemed destined for horror icon status. It helped that M3GAN reunited producer James Wan and screenwriter Akela Cooper, both responsible for 2021’s highly entertaining Malignant, and put Housebound’s Gerard Johnstone at the helm. The horror-comedy does live up to its promise to entertain, but with a heavy emphasis on humor and less on horror. Top roboticist/developer Gemma (Allison Williams) stresses over a looming toy deadline at her company while secretly working on a passion...

One of this year’s most hotly anticipated horror movies is of course Scream VI, which brings Ghostface back to theaters on March 10, 2023. Only this time around, we’re not heading back to Woodsboro. Instead, Ghostface is slashing into New York City this coming March. USA Today has shared a new image from Scream VI today and it teases that fresh new location for the franchise. We’re not in Woodsboro anymore, folks. Check it out down below. In the brand new movie, “The Scream saga continues with the four survivors of the...

If you were worried that Capcom would take the axe to the content for the upcoming Resident Evil 4 remake (as some had speculated with regards to the “reimagining” of the story), there’s no need to fret. In fact, you can expect “a lot more” when it comes to the island section of the remake. Per GamingBolt, in the recent issue of EDGE magazine, Capcom sat down to chat about the anticipated Resident Evil 4 remake. The team revealed that unlike the more recent remakes in the series that didn’t...

While the first Terrifier quickly gained a cult following, the chief criticism lobbed at it was the perceived lack of plot. Terrifier writer-director Damien Leone seems to have taken that to heart, as Terrifier 2 packs a lot of story – including several intentionally ambiguous plotlines to be resolved in a future installment – into a whopping 138 minutes. Despite playing it coy in interviews, those too impatient to wait for the eventual Terrifier 3 will be pleased to know that Leone answers many of fans’ most burning questions in...

While it was first spotted back in October, Nightdive Studios has now confirmed that their upcoming System Shock remake has a release window of March 2023. The developers also took the opportunity to show off some new eye candy for the remake, including the game’s dismemberment system. In a new Kickstarter post, Nightdive acknowledges that this isn’t the first time the long-in-development remake has had an announced release window. But, with the addition of Prime Matter as publisher, Nightdive has been able to focus on polishing the System Shock remake...

The year’s robust horror releases aren’t exclusive to movies; it’s also been a banner year for horror on television. 2022 kicked off with the final three episodes of Showtime’s must see “Yellowjackets,“ setting the bar high for horror TV in 2022. In its critically acclaimed wake, other horror shows more than delivered with new seasons of ongoing genre favorites, surprising adaptations of familiar novels, breathtaking feats in anthology storytelling, and so much more. Here are Bloody Disgusting’s top 10 best horror TV series of 2022. Shining Vale The inaugural season...

He did it before with Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse, and he’s doing it again with Super Castlevania IV. YouTuber Lord Kayoss is back again with another mini-doc/playthrough, this time going over Konami’s 1991 classic for the Super Nintendo. As before with his other videos, Kayoss runs through Super Castlevania IV in a full walkthrough, sprinkling in some trivia/opinions throughout. In fact, it makes for a nice companion piece to our own retrospective of the game from two years ago (shameless plug, I know). Just in case you’ve never played the...

The mark of a memorable acting performance is decided by a number of different factors. How well can you display the intended emotion of the scene? Were the strengths of your performance tailored to make the audience scared? Depressed? Joyful? How about a jack of all trades performance that accomplished all of the above and more?  Horror is a genre that has the luxury of spanning different tones and subgenres – a messy melting pot chock-full of quality on-screen performances. The kind of work demonstrative of the strengths present in...

New Queer’s Eve. It’s been a pretty wild December, with us covering off-kilter films like the much-maligned Batman & Robin, the not-as-bad-as-you-think Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings and the Stephen Sondheim and Anthony Perkins-penned murder mystery The Last of Sheila. Now we’re wrapping up the year with a discussion of Carter Smith‘s (The Ruins, Jamie Marks is Dead) Into the Dark entry “Midnight Kiss“! In the film, a group of friends (Augustus Prew, Scott Evans, Lukas Gage, Chester Lockhart, Adam Faison and Ayden Mayeri) gather at a beautiful desert resort on New Year’s...

Two performers defined horror in 2022: Jenna Ortega and Mia Goth. No others quite compare to the sheer emotional brawn both actors brought to the screen. While they have each been working for years in various TV and film roles, the stars aligned over the last 12 months to catapult them into the stratosphere. From Goth’s stunning turn in Pearl to Ortega’s career-making performance as Wednesday Addams, the breadth of work on display is unmatched. Their magnetism is unequivocal. They have a talent of outlining full-bodied characters with bright definition...

Although they aim to provoke contrary emotional responses, horror and comedy needn’t be mutually exclusive. Granted, they are strange bedfellows but can pair together nicely under the right circumstances. Indeed, some of our most beloved scary movies also happen to be quite effective rib ticklers. Even if you discount those that occupy the realm of explicit parody (like Zombieland or What We Do in the Shadows), there are still plenty of genuine horror flicks out there that have a good sense of humour. For whatever reason, this was especially common...
