Curiosity killed the cat, and thanks to a nosey teenager, there’s no telling what evil has been unleashed from the Warrens’ collection or who it will kill. The new trailer for Annabelle Comes Home reveals that not only is Annabelle on the lose, but many of the haunted objects from the collection are now free to not only cause problems but also draw new evil. From writer-director Gary Dauberman comes the seventh installment of The Conjuring franchise in which Annabelle targets the Warrens’ ten-year-old daughter Judy (McKenna Grace) and her babysitter as Annabelle activates all the other haunted artifacts in Warren’s trophy room, basically creating a Night at the Museum situation, only a lot more terrifying. Both Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson return as Lorraine and Ed Warren. Madison Iseman, McKenna Grace, Katie Sarife, and Steve Coulter also star. Be sure to watch Annabelle, and it’s prequel Annabelle: Creation before heading to theaters on June 28th for the third installment,

Director Paul Hyett is taking us back to the 17th century for the terrifying supernatural tale The Convent, where a young woman is left to fight for life and her soul. In the early 17th century, innocent young Persephone is falsely accused and put on trial for her life. Her fate seems sealed except for the timely intervention of the mysterious Reverend Mother offering her not just sanctuary, but hope. For the Reverend Mother is the self-appointed leader of a small religious retreat, a secluded Priory, where her fellow Sisters devote their lives to the Lord and seek atonement for their pasts. But upon arrival, Persephone is plagued with terrifying visions and soon realizes that it’s not salvation that awaits but a battle for her very soul itself. Written by Hyett, Conal Palmer, and Gregory Blair, The Covenant stars Hannah Arterton, Clare Higgins, and Rosie Day. The Convent opens in theaters and arrives On Demand May 3, 2019, from Vertical

In a cold, medieval forest, a warrior (Christopher Rygh) stalks the land eternally hunting for one more monster head to add to his collection…but this one will come from not just any random beastie, but rather from the abomination (played by that killed his young daughter (Cora Kaufman). As he battles creature after creature he moves closer to his goal…but will this final stop on revenge road be too much for even our grim hero to overcome? The Head Hunter is everything I crave from genre cinema; unique, inventive, and packed with sweet, sweet creatures! While at it’s heart an absolute exercise in minimalism…to wit; the cast is comprised of two actors (with Rygh being in the entire picture…and boy does he ever deliver a ton of emotion and gravitas with barely any dialog at his disposal), a horse, and a monster performer, and the brunt of the locations are wooded exteriors, but the entire affair seems unbelievably epic due

A new extended trailer is here for James Gunn‘s horror meets superhero movie, Brightburn, giving us a few extra seconds of footage. That kid is terrifying! You almost feel sorry for Brandon, at least before you see what he does to those around him. Director David Yarovesky is really heaping on the horror, and for that, we say thank you. What if a child from another world crash-landed on Earth, but instead of becoming a hero to mankind, he proved to be something far more sinister? In this horror-centered take on the superhero trope, a couple (Elizabeth Banks and David Denman) adopt a baby from another world. They raise the boy (Jackson A. Dunn) to use his powers for good, but an evil begins to grow within him. Written by James Gunn and Mark Gunn, Brightburn takes over theaters on May 24, 2019.

The original Alien film turns 40 this year, and the folks at 20th Century Fox and Tongal are set to give you six sinister servings of zippy xenomorph goodness (yeah, I stole this from my initial blurb…if it ain’t broke yo…) via a selection of sinister shorts that will be running from…well today, to April 26th with one new film premiering each week on IGN…but, me being me, I’m going to give you my opinion of each of these fright flicks right fuckin’ now!

The ol’ President of Earth (Irene Santiago) drops some nukes to end an alien invasion which naturally results in some friendlies getting the all over suntan. So she pops off to an orbiting space station to rule from the sweet, sweet vacuum of space. Enter Sarah (Shannon Hutchinson), a science minded teen who gets chosen to visit the space station, along with smiley genius Brooke (Yael Haskal), sullen Charlie (Jasmina Parent), and pint-sized douche-nozzle boy Tom (Johnathan Newport)…all accompanied by their hard-ass overseer Commander (Vito Trigo). Before you can say “What could go wrong in this scenario?”, an assassin shots the Prez and sets of a time bomb forcing those aboard to jettison to the beautiful, yet hostile, forest planet below. Soon our youthful heroes are up to their noses in alien parasites, body horror, and hot buttered murder…okay, the murder is just regular murder… Holy hell boils n’ ghouls; Writer/Director Drew Bolduc has really delivered with Assassinaut!
