The BAU is back, and apparently, being a legendary profiler doesn’t come with a “happily ever after” clause. “Criminal Minds: Evolution” is returning to Paramount+ for Season 19, and the team is about to learn that sometimes, the only thing worse than a serial killer is a serial killer with a dedicated fanbase. “Senpai, Notice My Murder” This season, the BAU finds itself caught in a deadly parasocial relationship. While the team investigates a fresh string of chilling cases, everyone’s favorite resident psychopath, Elias Voit (Zach Gilford), is busy trying to “atone” for his sins. Unfortunately, his high-profile infamy has inspired a new nightmare: “The Fan.” “The Fan” isn’t just a copycat; he’s a calculating, precise, and relentlessly dangerous predator who views Voit as his idol. The central question of the season? How many bodies will “The Fan” drop just to prove he’s better than the man who taught him everything? It’s the ultimate toxic fandom, and the BAU is

Before James Gunn was busy rebooting the Man of Steel or steering the ship as the Co-Chairman and CEO of DC Studios, he was busy unleashing flesh-eating extraterrestrial parasites on small-town America. To celebrate its 20th Anniversary, Visions Home Video is giving Gunn’s directorial debut, Slither, the royal treatment it deserves. It is getting a limited-edition 4K UHD + Blu-ray Steelbook release on June 1st. A Love Letter to Practical Gore Long before he gave us a talking raccoon and a sentient tree, Gunn gave us Michael Rooker as a mutating meat-monster. This 2006 cult classic remains one of the most effective horror-comedies of the 21st century, blending genuine skin-crawling terror with the dry wit that would eventually become Gunn’s cinematic signature. The story is a classic “alien-meets-outback” nightmare: a parasite lands in a sleepy town, turns a local businessman into a walking biological hazard, and begins its mission to consume every living thing on Earth. It’s up to the

The wait for one of the year’s most anticipated horror returns is nearly over. And now, AMC has finally unveiled a new clip from “The Terror: Devil in Silver,” and it confirms what we’ve suspected for a while: Dan Stevens has officially completed his evolution from “Downton Abbey” heartthrob to the internet’s favorite genre-bending powerhouse. Stevens begins by looking like a reliable, working-class stepdad. But because this is an installment of The Terror, domestic bliss is short-lived. By the end of the footage, he’s being forcibly admitted to a psychiatric facility that makes a traditional haunted house look like a five-star resort. The third chapter of AMC’s acclaimed anthology is set to premiere on AMC+ and Shudder, and it is a six-episode masterclass in atmospheric dread. Check-In at the Hospital from Hell Stevens stars as Pepper, a blue-collar mover who finds himself trapped within the walls of New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital. The official synopsis describes New Hyde as a “dumping

After a seven-year hiatus that felt longer than a winter in the Arctic, AMC’s prestige horror anthology is finally back to remind us that being trapped in a room is much worse than being trapped in the tundra. “The Terror: Devil in Silver” officially premieres this May, on AMC+ and Shudder, with a linear run on AMC to follow later this year. This six-episode descent into madness moves the franchise away from historical shipwrecks and internment camps, landing squarely in the claustrophobic nightmare of a modern psychiatric ward. The series, which is based on the 2012 novel by Victor LaValle, follows Pepper (Dan Stevens), a working-class man whose “bad luck and bad temper” land him in New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital. Pepper quickly realizes that New Hyde is where society sends the people it wants to forget. Between the gaslighting doctors, the hostile patients, and a mysterious entity known as “The Devil” lurking in the shadows, Pepper’s struggle isn’t just about

Neon, the studio that seems to have a permanent VIP reservation at the Academy Awards (thanks to Parasite and Anora), has officially snatched up the U.S. rights to King Snake. This isn’t just another pickup. It’s a Southern Gothic horror feast directed by Jeff Nichols (Take Shelter). He’s the man who made us all a little more afraid of the Arkansas wilderness in Mud. The Dream Team Reunited If a Jeff Nichols film doesn’t feature Michael Shannon (pictured), is it even a Jeff Nichols film? The Revolutionary Road star—and Nichols’ unofficial cinematic soulmate (Take Shelter, Midnight Special)—is back for more. He’s joined by a powerhouse cast that ensures this won’t be your run-of-the-mill jump-scare fest. That includes Margaret Qualley (The Substance) and Drew Starkey. Fresh from a breakout turn in Queer, Starkey is trading prestige drama for whatever darkness lurks in the Bayou. And of course, Michael Shannon, who is bringing his signature “I have seen things you wouldn’t believe”

The Doctor Will See You Now (And It’s Not for a Checkup) Djimon Hounsou (A Quiet Place: Day One) may have spent his career playing heroes and stoics, but in Twisted, he’s trading the Hippocratic Oath for something a little more… visceral. Hounsou is joined by Lauren LaVera, who survived Art the Clown in the Terrifier franchise only to find herself in a different kind of nightmare. The Ultimate Bad Roommate Story LaVera stars as Paloma, a grifter running a high-stakes real estate scam in the concrete jungle of New York City. Her hustle? Leasing out luxury apartments she doesn’t actually own to unsuspecting marks. The con is working beautifully until she tries to play Dr. Robert Kezian (Djimon Hounsou), a neurosurgeon with a massive apartment and an even bigger God complex. When the doctor catches on, the game doesn’t just flip—it gets flayed. Paloma finds herself captured and subjected to a terrifying, methodical plan. One that demands far more

The Duffer Brothers, the duo behind “Stranger Things, are trading Hawkins for a New Mexico retirement village. But this village isn’t just about shuffleboard and naps; something dangerous is hiding among the homes in “The Boroughs.” Paradise with a Pulse (Barely) Netflix’s new sci-fi series introduces us to Sam Cooper, a new resident who thinks his new community feels like a prison. Sam is convinced a monster is stalking the cul-de-sacs at night. And naturally, the authorities think Sam is just another confused old man. But some of the residents band together to hunt the truth and the creature. The Ultimate A-Team Sam teams up with a band of neighborhood misfits to fight back: a sharp-witted former journalist, a spiritual seeker, a cynical music manager, and a doctor with a dark secret.

New Line and Warner Bros. are ready to swallow your soul again. The sixth entry in the iconic franchise, Evil Dead Burn, has its first trailer! Sébastien Vaniček (Infested) directs this new blood-soaked chapter. He co-wrote the screenplay with his Infested collaborator, Florent Bernard.

The New Bloody Trailer The first official Evil Dead Burn trailer is exactly what we would hope for.
