Just in time for the spookiest season of the year, AMC+ and Crave unveiled the new mystery-thriller series “YAGA.” It’s a modern, wicked twist on one of folklore’s most terrifying legends: Baba Yaga. Adapted from the stage play by showrunner and writer Kat Sandler, the eight-episode series reimagines the Baba Yaga myth. Yaga is the infamous flesh-eating witch who resides in a hut propped up on giant chicken legs. However, the series reframes the lore as a contemporary noir set in a quiet coastal town. A Disappearance, Secret Lives, and Ancient Magic The story kicks off when private investigator Rapp (Noah Reid, Schitt’s Creek, The Vampire Lestat) rolls into town to solve the mysterious disappearance of Henry Park (Hudson Williams, Heated Rivalry), the young heir to a powerful local fishery. Naturally, the case is anything but straightforward. Rapp quickly finds himself navigating a treacherous labyrinth of local secrets, pitted against Carson (Clark Backo, Venom: The Last Dance), a wary local

Fans of the Halloween franchise frequently debate the controversial third film. Historically, many viewers felt Halloween III: Season of the Witch didn’t belong in the series. However, director Jason Eisener took a completely different approach this horror season. He crafted a brilliant fan film that finally connects the film. A Twisted Silver Shamrock Origin His new short film is titled Project Shamrock: The Secret Origins of Michael Myers Exposed. This exciting project ties Halloween III into the broader Michael Myers storyline. The story presents Michael Myers as a sinister experiment from the Silver Shamrock Corporation. Specifically, young Michael wears a specialized Silver Shamrock mask. This cursed mask transforms the innocent child into a cold-blooded killer. As a result, the plot connects two distinct eras of horror lore into one cohesive universe. Retro Aesthetic and Deep Mythology The story unfolds through a lost film reel from Halloween 1960. This vintage reel also reveals disturbing evidence of top-secret human testing. Eisener captured

Long before the zombie became Hollywood’s favorite excuse for video game kill-streaks and endless television dramas, it represented a terrifying reality. One grounded in history and the struggle for spiritual survival. Now, you can take a deep dive into the history of the undead with the documentary Black Zombie. Maya Annik Bedward’s acclaimed documentary, Black Zombie. Following its festival run at SXSW, Hot Docs, Blackstar, and Fantasia, the film skips typical jump scares to exhume the deeply unsettling, buried origins of pop culture’s most profitable monster. From Haitian Vodou to Hollywood Cash Cow Black Zombie tracks how a complex figure born from colonial enslavement, Haitian Vodou, and spiritual resistance was systematically whitewashed, stripped of its cultural roots, and packaged into a sanitized cinematic trope. Expect a blend of archival footage, observational vérité scenes, and sharp analysis. Bedward re-examines seminal horror classics including White Zombie, Night of the Living Dead, and The Serpent and the Rainbow. The result is a bold
