‘Snow Monster vs. Ice Shark’ Trailer – Ridiculous Chinese Monster Movie Now Available on DVD

Following the release of Frankenstein, Boris Karloff, at nearly 45 years of age and having spent twenty years as a professional actor, became an overnight sensation. As the film was still raking in its rewards, Universal signed him to a star contract and immediately began searching for a property for him. As it turned out it took nearly a year, between his outstanding commitments to other studios and Universal’s inability to find a suitable script, for Karloff to appear in his first starring role for the studio. The film was...

‘Violent Night’ Review – Bloody Holiday Action Movie Earns a Spot on the Nice List

Bloody Disgusting’s Violent Night review is spoiler-free. This holiday season brings a new answer to the tired debate over Die Hard: the ultra-violent yet sugar plum sweet Violent Night. Director Tommy Wirkola (Dead Snow) infuses his gore-soaked sense of humor into an amalgamation of familiar holiday fare, ushering a new crowd-pleasing Christmas-set actioner eager to splatter the snow red. Violent Night introduces Santa Claus (David Harbour) as a cynic drowning his frustrations in booze at a bar on Christmas Eve. He laments the current greedy state of the world and its children to fellow patrons...

GG Allin Getting a Biopic from ‘Lords of Chaos’ Filmmaker Jonas Åkerlund

Five years after igniting the original slasher craze, Sean S. Cunningham returned with another harrowing tale of young people in danger. And similar to Friday the 13th, this 1985 movie concerns unlucky teens on the receiving end of someone’s revenge. The only difference here, though, is this threat hits much closer to home. The New Kids draws from another prevalent Hollywood trend — violent street gangs and the communities they terrorize — and tells a unique coming-of-age story. The New Kids starts with Tom Atkins’ character dragging his two teenage...

Psychological Horror Game ‘The Lies We Tell Ourselves’ Looks Inward For Real Scares

We’re always up for some psychological horror in our gaming, though a lot of games seemingly threaten to run together with no real outstanding aspect to differentiate them from one another. That doesn’t appear to be the case with Poopsy’s The Lies We Tell Ourselves, which takes a more unconventional route of looking at something that hits all too close to home for many. The story revolves around Vincent Arno, a 20-something man who still conveniently lives with his parents. No expenses, no responsibilities, and what’s probably most disturbing, no...

The murderess dealt with the ramifications of her one-sided relationship with Nica (Fiona Dourif), unexpected party guests, motherhood, death, and the loss of her comfortable lifestyle when Jennifer Tilly gets framed for Tiffany’s...

5 of This Week’s Coolest Horror Collectibles Including a New $700 Pennywise Doll!

Greetings from the other side and welcome back to DEAD Time. This month, I explored the history of Mothman and talked with the world’s top Mothman researcher and owner of the Mothman Museum in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, Jeff Wamsley. On November 15, 1966, two young couples from Point Pleasant, Roger and Linda Scarberry and Steve and Mary Mallette, had a terrifying encounter with a winged creature with glowing red eyes, which they described as “a large, flying man with ten-foot wings.” They were hesitant to report the incident to...

Finding the Good in Neil Marshall’s ‘Hellboy’ Reboot [The Silver Lining]

In this edition of The Silver Lining, we’ll be covering Neil Marshall’s ill-fated comic-book adaptation, Hellboy. From Sin City to Umbrella Academy, Dark Horse Comics has always lived up to its name by betting on oddball titles and unusual creators. While there’s no shortage of iconic characters that were first introduced in the pages of DHC, I’d argue that one of their most recognizable contributions to popular culture would have to be Mike Mignola’s Hellboy. A paranormal investigator that also happens to be a grumpy demon, the horned face of...

Gentleman Monster: Remembering Boris Karloff on His 135th Birthday

In his last great performance in Peter Bogdanovich’s debut film Targets (1968), Boris Karloff plays the aged and exasperated horror legend Byron Orlok. In a single line he sums up his entire career, at least as viewed by the public: “Marx Brothers make you laugh, Garbo makes you weep, Orlok makes you scream.” As with Gloria Swanson’s unforgettable portrayal of Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard (1950), it is tempting to project too much of the real Karloff onto his onscreen counterpart. The broad strokes are similar enough, but the true...
