According to a new report from Variety, Venom 3 is shooting for an October 2024 release! This checks out, as both Venom (2018) and Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021) were unleashed into theaters in October. That seems to be the sweet spot for this franchise.

I’m a huge fan of the slasher genre. Out of every sub category in the wide horror genre, the slasher appeals to me the most. There’s just something thrilling about watching characters attempt to survive a monster in a mask that wants to butcher them to bits. Despite it being one of the most successful subgenres of film, it hasn’t really cracked the video game space all that much. Sure we’ve had gems like Friday the 13th, and some inversions of the genre like Until Dawn. But for the most...

This Halloween, Ruthless Studios will unleash the third entry of the All Hallows’ Eve series, which introduced the world to the iconic slasher Art the Clown way back in 2013. Titled All Hallows’ Eve: Trickster, this latest entry into the anthology film franchise, which prides itself on spotlighting the hard work of the indie horror community, is ready to shine the spotlight on a brand-new crop of filmmakers. Releasing October 2023, All Hallows’ Eve: Trickster will feature a collection of short films curated by one of the producers of the...

Lionsgate are obviously riding the success of the John Wick series with the upcoming Ballerina spinoff and “The Continental” TV series. And not only is John Wick 5 also in development, but Wick will be making a return to video games, as well. According to the latest Lionsgate earnings call (via Comicbook), Lionsgate Motion Picture Group President Joe Drake confirmed that a fifth John Wick is in early development. Along with that, the studio is looking to expand beyond film, including “in the AAA video game space,” as well as...

“With all of the remakes going on today, you can never be sure what you’ll get at the end.” It was with this cautious scepticism that veteran game designer, Frédérick Raynal, initially greeted the news of his most famous creation, Alone in the Dark, getting another do-over. Which is an understandable reaction, given that this franchise has a singularly bad track-record when it comes to being fumbled by outsiders. And that’s putting it lightly, as anybody who has ever played 2015’s risible Illumination will attest. You see, while other survival...

When Terrifier 2 was released in theaters, much of the conversation surrounding it was devoted to its gruesome practical effects, insane levels of violence and gore, and audience reactions that included vomiting and fainting on a level not reported since the release of The Exorcist nearly fifty years before. It was being sold as a movie that would test the mettle of even the most hardened horror fan, almost like a dare, and I was excited to take that challenge. When I settled into my seat a couple weeks later,...

Announced last June, Capcom took the wrappings off of Dragon’s Dogma II with a brand new trailer at the Sony State of Play. Dragon’s Dogma II begins in a subterranean jail, where the Dragon’s voice echoes in the fog of lost memories. With their heart taken by the Dragon, the Arisen is set on a path to slay that symbol of the world’s destruction as it soars through the sky on massive wings, breathing flames that scorch everything in its path. Betwixt the domains of humans and the newly introduced...

Kristen Stewart and Elle Fanning will lead the cast of the upcoming psychological drama Rosebushpruning, Deadline reports, a new take on the 1965 movie Fists in the Pocket. From The Match Factory and Mubi, the film will be directed by Karim Aïnouz (Firebrand). “Rosebushpruning is a dark satire of family and social values, centering on a young man suffering from epilepsy who plots the murders of his dysfunctional family.” Josh O’Connor will also star in Rosebushpruning. Efthimis Filippou (Dogtooth) wrote the screenplay for the remake. “Marco Bellocchio’s astonishing debut, Fists in the...

Actor Ted Raimi loves horror so much that he’s dedicated much of his career to it, providing fans with an endless array of memorable characters from Evil Dead II’s Henrietta to last year’s morally complex Travis Hackett in video game The Quarry. Up next for the horror stalwart is Failure!, an ambitious, violent thriller premiering this Sunday under the Fantastic Pavilion at this year’s Cannes’ Marché du Film. In Failure!, Ted Raimi produces and stars as a man forced to choose between financial ruin and murder with little time to process, resulting in a crime...

There was a time us old folk remember when you would rent a messed up little indie horror movie based solely on the cover and description. No Twitter hyperbole or festival raving aside from what was written on the box (which was often not to be believed). Not even a Rotten Tomatoes score to check! Just the cover art and you. And sometimes, you’d discover a hidden gem. Lucky McKee’s May (2002) was one of those movies for a lot of people. A weird little flick that found its fanbase...

The penultimate episode of “Yellowjackets” Season 2, “It Chooses” bides its time laying out all cards on the table before taking giant strides toward the wild hunt teased in the series’ opening. Things look dire for the group, both in the past and present. The careful plotting this week builds to a soul-shaking conclusion that ensures next week’s finale will bring the pain. “It Chooses” provides crucial context from the outset, before the opening credits play. Akilah (Nia Sondaya), who’d been hiding her mouse friend from the group lest they...

A week after we got a taste of the gameplay for Warhammer 40K: Boltgun, developer Auroch Digital has released an extended gameplay trailer showing even more of the pixelated bloody action. The footage in question showcases seven minutes of viciously satisfying gameplay footage, and is topped off with a boss fight for dessert. The extended gameplay trailer showcases the extremely fluid and modern gameplay of Warhammer 40K: Boltgun, brought to life with glorious, fully 3D, sprite-based visuals. Grab your Boltgun, Chainsword and Grav-Cannon to shoot, shred, slice, and demolish dynamic...
