Grab your Boomsticks! The 'Evil Dead Burn' Teaser Is Here!

Grab your Boomsticks! The ‘Evil Dead Burn’ Teaser Is Here!

After haunting theaters over the weekend alongside Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, the footage is officially online and ready to ruin your sleep schedule. Even better? New Line and Warner Bros. have decided we’ve been well-behaved enough to get the film two weeks early. Originally slated for late July, the sixth installment will now open in theaters on July 10, 2026. The Teaser: Short, Sweet, and Gory The “teaser” tag isn’t a joke—it’s a sprint. The clip centers on a relentless, unbroken shot of a young woman trying to navigate a house that has clearly failed its most recent health inspection. Between the Deadite infestation and the literal rain of mangled corpses, it’s exactly the kind of “family reunion” that requires a chainsaw to survive. What’s the Story? If you thought your last Thanksgiving was awkward, the official synopsis for Evil Dead Burn has you beat: After the loss of her husband, a grieving widow seeks refuge at her in-laws’ secluded

Don’t Feed the Models: Neon Greenlights AI-Horror "Mora" from VFX Wizard Sam Evenson

Don’t Feed the Models: Neon Greenlights AI-Horror “Mora” from VFX Wizard Sam Evenson

In a world where everyone is worried about AI taking their jobs, Neon is more concerned about AI taking your soul. The indie powerhouse behind Longlegs and Parasite has tapped VFX wizard Sam Evenson to turn his viral short film, Mora, into a full-blown feature nightmare. If you’ve spent any time on the dark side of YouTube, you probably know Evenson from his channel Grimoire Horror, where he’s been traumatizing nearly 200,000 subscribers for years. Now, he’s moving from the small screen to the silver screen for his directorial debut. A “Model” Student of Terror The story follows a struggling, displaced artist who makes the classic mistake of mixing creativity with the Dark Web. After using an AI model trained on “corrupted” dark web imagery, the artist begins to be stalked by a mysterious, malevolent woman. It’s a timely reminder: maybe stick to MS Paint if you want to sleep at night. From Arrakis to Indie Horror Evenson isn’t just

The 'Clayface' Trailer Introduces a Gruesome New Face to DC Cinematic Universe

The ‘Clayface’ Trailer Introduces a Gruesome New Face to DC Cinematic Universe

Move over, method actors: there’s a new face in town, and it happens to be every face at once. DC Studios just dropped the trailer for “Clayface,” and from the looks of it, this isn’t your average superhero romp. Slated for an Oct. 23 release, director James Watkins is pivoting away from capes and toward pure, unadulterated body horror. A Skincare Routine Gone Wrong The film stars Tom Rhys Harries as Matt Hagen, a struggling actor whose career—and face—get slashed after a brutal knife attack. Desperate to regain his leading-man looks, Hagen undergoes a “highly experimental” medical procedure. Naturally, because this is a comic book movie and not a Pfizer commercial, things go south. Instead of looking like a young Brad Pitt, Hagen’s cellular structure turns into sentient mud. The trailer, which debuted at CinemaCon, leans heavily into the “ick” factor: Body Horror: We see Hagen in a hospital bed, his face a mess of bandages and blood. The Transformation:

Frendo is Back! Clown in a Cornfield 2 is In Development!

Director Eli Craig Talks Clown in a Cornfield in Our Interview

One of my favorite horror comedies of all time is Eli Craig’s horror comedy Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. It has been since its release in 2010.

So, of course, when I got the opportunity to interview Craig about his new movie, Clown in a Cornfield, I jumped at the chance. First, let’s talk about Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. It follows two friends on vacation at their new mountain cabin, Tucker (Alan Tudyk) and Dale (Tyler Labine). When a group of preppy college kids mistakes them for murderers, mayhem follows. Whether you want to relive its dark humor or watch it for the first time, you can find it streaming on Fandango, Hoopla, and Prime Video.

Movie Review: ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ Is Delightfully Dark and Demented

After years of rumors, hopes, and dreams, the sequel to Beetlejuice has finally materialized. In fact, it is now available on digital and VOD! At first, I was hesitant to watch it. Let’s be honest: few sequels rarely live up to the original film. With movies that are such epic classics, like Beetlejuice, the chances are slim to none. I finally couldn’t stand it anymore, so I broke down and watched Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. This is my review. In Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Lydia Deetz is reluctantly reunited with the demonic trickster Beetlejuice in this highly anticipated sequel. Lydia’s daughter, Astrid, is kidnapped by unknown otherworldly forces. The Deetz family, grappling with an unexpected tragedy, returns to their ancestral home in Winter River.
