Players Facing Death In ‘Visage’

For gamers that like in your face horror games that give you the feeling that you’re living a horror movie experience, SadSquare Studio brings the horror home in ‘Visage’. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the game will most likely be released in 2018 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and yes, there will be a VR option! The title of the game comes from the old French/Latin word that means a person’s face or facial expression which is fitting since the game’s tagline seems to be, “Each death has its Visage.” ‘Visage’ takes place in the 1980’s in a large house where the player lives. The house over the years has been plagued by violent deaths in nearly every room. Players explore the house to unravel the mysteries it holds by witnessing the deaths of the past while at the same time trying to not attract too much dark energy by being afraid. In some respect the game visually

Movie Review: Desolation Will Make Sure Your Terror Is Televised!

Desolation begins with a woman dousing herself in alcohol and lighting herself ablaze in front of a rolling camera…talk about your all over hot foot, eh fiends?!! We then switch gears to focus on sad sack hotel worker Katie (Dominik García-Lorido) who soon begins hanging out with movie star Jay ( Brock Kelly) who’s in town to film some sort of movie or some such shit. Anyway, he’s unhappy being a star, she’s unhappy just being Katie, and the two funsters become chummy (a.k.a. they take the express train to Bone Town). Long story short; Jay brings Katie to Hell A. where she begins trading her memories for fortune and fame, and finds herself just a step away from the edge of a fall…you could say caught between heaven and hell even (where’s the girl I knew 15 minutes ago?). Before long, Katie begins seeing ghostly visions within the confines of Jay’s nearly deserted (and creepy A.F.) apartment building, and

Next “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” Movie Will Be Getting The Reboot Yet Again

At this point the “Texas Chainsaw” franchise’s continuity feels like taking a hammer to the head. Multiple reboots, direct sequels to earlier films that had previously been rebooted, timelines that Doc Brown and Marty couldn’t figure out; the entire series is an absolute mess, and one of rapidly decaying quality to boot. “Leatherface”, the franchise’s most recent installment, holds a paltry 33% on Rotten Tomatoes. Perhaps it’s not all that surprising then (if not a little distressing) that the next film in the series will be rebooted yet again, if a tweet from actress Christa Campbell is correct. “I loved this film and I’m very proud,” said Campbell. “Unfortunately because of the time it took to release it we lost the rights sadly. So no, at least not from us.” Maybe the next team will finally get the chainsaw revved up and roaring. I’d hate to see this franchise die with a sputter.

When Welsh Mari Lwyd Visits

In South Wales, not just Santa is expected to stop by your home for the holidays, keep an ear out; here comes the Mari Lwyd (Gray Mare)! Mari Lwyd is a Hobby Horse, those toy horses that was basically a stick with a stuff horse head on one end, the Welsh kept the stick but have a horse skull on the end of it! Just to add to it, a person carries the stick with the skull on it while draped in a white cloth most commonly giving the appearance that the Mari Lwyd is a tall cloaked figure with a horse skill sticking out from the hood. Depictions of “hooded animals” are quite common in the British Isles thanks to its pre-Christian Pagan beliefs which causes confusion when trying to track down the origin of this tradition since the first recorded account of this tradition appears in the 1800’s and scholars and folklore experts can’t seem to agree if

70 Year Old Nick Castle Returns as Mike Meyers

I am not sure what the majority of people thought about Rob Zombie’s ‘Halloween’ but I really enjoyed it (the sequel was…..ooh well). But I was surprised when rumors and then facts regarding yet another reboot came to fruition; however, I am gaining more and more interest in it based on the information we are getting. It will be based more on suspense and psychological fear than Zombie’s. And now we know that Nick Castle – the original Mike Meyers – will return to his role as a senior citizen. He is in his 70s and will be playing a Meyers who will be in his 60s. Castle has released a video of him walking on a treadmill…let’s just say that he does not walk like a 70 year old. He has quite they strut as he walks (donning his Mike Meyers mask) preparing to stalk his next victims. ‘Halloween’ is directed by David Gordon Green, written by Green and

He also gave us an exclusive on his next project, which you’ll have to read to believe. Horror Fuel: “How did you get your start in the film industry?” Chris Kobin: “I came out to L.A. in ’83 after I graduated from a very good law school and had an office, didn’t want it. I wanted to be a writer. My father was in public television so I come from a TV background. I have spent the last twenty-five years between producing and writing movies and selling cars. I made a lot of money doing that. I’ve been lucky enough to raise a nice family. I started off with a TV movie career. I ran Ed Asner’s
