Martin Scorsese has been a supporter of the horror genre for as long as he’s had those iconic eyebrows. So, the prospect of him finally delivering a full-blown horror flick, What Happens at Night, is enough to give any cinephile chills. Frequent muse Leonardo DiCaprio is leading a powerhouse cast. That includes Jennifer Lawrence, Mads Mikkelsen, Patricia Clarkson, and Jared Harris. We aren’t just looking at a movie; we’re looking at a recipe for high-altitude cinematic gold. The Source Material First announced in 2023, the project is an adaptation of Peter Cameron’s 2020 gothic mystery novel. The story follows a couple (DiCaprio and Lawrence) who travel to a nameless, frozen Balkan country to adopt a child. The stakes are already sky-high. The wife is battling terminal cancer, and the trip is a last-ditch effort to salvage their crumbling marriage. Upon arrival, they check into the Borgarfjaroasysla Grand Imperial Hotel. It’s a cavernous, eerily establishment that makes the Overlook look like

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 premiered on May 7, 2026, on AMC+ and Shudder. 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. One Way Ticket to Hell Based on the 2012 novel by Victor LaValle, the season 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 escaping—it’s about surviving a hellscape where

Forget the brunch reservations and the last-minute bouquets. This Mother’s Day, we’re celebrating a different kind of maternal bond—the kind that involves a dying wish, a gallon of gasoline, and a very specific request for homicide. We’re talking about Is God Is. To mark the holiday, two new clips for Is God Is have officially dropped, proving that while “Mother knows best,” she also knows how to hold a grudge. A Family Reunion Written in Blood If you were looking for a heartwarming tale about healing old wounds over potato salad, keep walking. Is God Is isn’t interested in your feelings; it’s interested in your femoral artery. This blood-spattered, genre-bending odyssey proves that vengeance is a dish best served with Southern Gothic grit and a side of pitch-black comedy so dark you’ll need a flashlight to find the exit. Based on Aleshea Harris’ award-winning play, the film marks her directorial debut—and she isn’t exactly “easing” into the director’s chair. She’s

Pack your bags and grab your toothbrush, because we’re finally headed to summer camp. While the wait for Peacock’s “Crystal Lake“ has felt longer than a legal battle over slasher rights, the silence is officially being broken. Bloody-Disgusting has shared the first glimpse at the back of a very lumpy, misshapen head, which we can only assume is young Jason’s. Showrunner Brad Caleb Kane (IT: Welcome to Derry) took to Instagram to channel his inner Crazy Ralph, posting a cryptic teaser: “News coming. Monday. We’re all doomed.” Since it’s currently Saturday, May 9, you only have to survive two more days before we get something good. Meet the Neighbors (Before They Die) This eight-episode prequel series from A24 aims to give us the “how-to” guide on raising a supernatural mass murderer.

If you’ve been craving a cinematic cocktail of high-octane gore and psychological trauma, Sam Raimi’s latest survival-horror outing, Send Help, has officially landed on streaming. And honestly? It’s a beautifully deranged homecoming for the Master of the Macabre. Here is why you should clear your schedule (and empty your stomach) for this one: The Raimi Fingerprints (Literally) From the jump, Send Help is less of a movie and more of a love letter to Raimi’s own twisted legacy. If you’re a fan, playing “spot the reference” is half the fun. We’re talking: Hands erupting from the earth in a frantic Evil Dead salute. There’s Raimi’s signature obsession with eye injuries that will make you want to watch through your fingers. And there’s an amount of projectile vomiting that makes Drag Me to Hell look like a dry heave. A Match Made in Purgatory The casting is, frankly, inspired. Rachel McAdams was seemingly born to play Linda. She starts as a

MGM’s “FROM” continues to keep viewers on the edge of their seats as the town descends into darkness, and things that go bump in the night are getting more terrifying. As everyone fights to survive, one character, Julie, steps up to help and find a way to save those they love. Played by Hannah Cheramy, Julie has grown from a sassy teen to a badass willing to put her body and mind on the line. I sat down with Cheramy to discuss Julie’s life in the town and her evolution. And also, her Julie playlist that gets her into Julie’s mindset. Before Cheramy joined “FROM,” an absolutely fantastic, nightmare-inducing series, she had already worked in the horror genre. She starred in films like The Hollow Child and Colossal, and in the TV series “Van Helsing.” With “FROM” already mid-season, you might be wondering what new horrors the characters will encounter. We’re not telling, but I will say this: with it

Terrifier’s Art the Clown has officially run out of pumpkins and candy canes, so he’s moving on to the next logical step in his holiday-themed genocide: New Year’s Eve. While updates on Terrifier 4 have been trickling out slower than Art’s victims trying to crawl to safety, writer/director Damien Leone finally dropped a meaningful bombshell regarding Art’s next (and potentially final) bloodbath. New Year, New Body Count Taking to Instagram, Leone shared a simple text-based image that confirmed the setting: “Terrifier 4 will take place around New Year’s Eve.” Leone’s caption was even more direct: “No space. No Easter bunny. Art’s bringing in the New Year!” While “around” implies the film might span a few days of holiday festivities, the core hook is clear. We’re trading the Silent Night for a very Loud Midnight. The potential for creative kills involving champagne bottles, countdown clocks, and those obnoxious “202X” glasses is, frankly, limitless. Keeping It “Grounded” (Relatively) Leone has been adamant
