Reality programs and competition shows are common during the summer months of network television. So naturally no one thought twice when Siberia began airing on NBC back in 2013. For most of its first episode, this reality series checked off all the necessary boxes: alliances, enemies, and obstacles. Toward the end of the episode, though, something unexpected happened. The once amiable host, now with a grave look on his face, announced that one of the contestants was dead. While its artifice was made apparent in NBC’s advance trailer, Siberia still may...

Netherrealm Studios has always been one of the more fascinating fighting game developers. They’ve always taken more creative risks than their competitors, to somewhat mixed results. Mortal Kombat was a nice return to form for the series. Then Mortal Kombat X introduced a great amount of player freedom with its variation system and sped the game up to blistering speeds, but a lot of fan-favorites were set aside for a focus on new characters such as the “Kombat Kids.” Mortal Kombat 11 introduced a gear system similar to Injustice 2...

For this month’s installment of “TV Terrors” we revisit the horror reality special “Can You Survive a Horror Movie?” which aired on Chiller TV for Friday the 13th in July 2012.

Among them was their heavily advertised attempt at a reality series entitled “Can You Survive a Horror Movie?” The premise of the one off special was essentially “Fear Factor” and “Mythbusters” mixed with a hard...

Infectious disease has been a concern of humankind ever since we first began cooperating in large settlements, so it makes sense that this horrific fact of life has also become the basis for many of our scary stories. And while COVID and the Black Plague are scary enough on their own, some stories rely on much stranger (and often absurd) diseases in order to terrify audiences – especially when horror movies are concerned. And with so many viral scares out there, we’ve decided to come up with a list recommending...

Fallen Leaf and Black Drakkar Games have finally announced that their sci-fi thriller Fort Solis will be releasing on the PS5 and PC via Steam on August 22nd. Accompanying the announcement is a new “Welcome to Fort Solis” gameplay trailer, offering players a tour of the titular mining station. With the station, care was taken to create a facility that could believably host a crew, yet remain coolly indifferent enough to “drive one mad”. Fort Solis station is the product of corporate industry, a massive and inhospitable base set amidst...

Written and directed by Christopher Nolan, this summer’s Oppenheimer is an IMAX®-shot epic thriller that thrusts audiences into the pulse-pounding paradox of the enigmatic man who must risk destroying the world in order to save it. Sounds pretty intense, yeah? Well according to Nolan himself in a new chat with Wired, it’s “kind of a horror movie.” “Some people leave the movie absolutely devastated,” Nolan tells the outlet. “They can’t speak. I mean, there’s an element of fear that’s there in the history and there in the underpinnings. But the...
