Amazing Horror Series You Might Have Missed (Part II)

Amazing Horror Series You Might Have Missed (Part II)

Penny Dreadful (2014-2016) I can’t express how disappointed I was when the series that explores classic monsters came to an end. Incredibly well-written with outstanding performances. In fact, I’d be willing to say that “Penny Dreadful” is one of the best horror series ever to be released. If you watch one series from the list, make it this one. Where To Watch: Showtime, Apple TV, FUBO Penny Dreadful: City of Angels (2020) The spin-off series has a completely different tone and follows a cop as he investigates horrific murders and the corruption of the police force in Los Angeles in the 1930s. Where To Watch: Prime Video, FUBO iZombie (2015-2019) The award-winning series, part zombie show, part comedy, and part police drama, follows a medical resident who finds that being a zombie has its perks as she helps a cop solve crimes. Where To Watch: Netflix Z Nation (2014-2018) Are you a fan of series like “The Walking Dead” but

Ti West's 'MaXXXine' Wraps Production, Reveals Cast

Ti West’s ‘MaXXXine’ Wraps Production, Reveals Cast

Writer-director Ti West‘s sexy horror, X, which gave birth to a new franchise, took the genre by storm back in 2022. The second film, Pearl, premiered later the same year, with the announcement of the third film, MaXXXine, to follow. News has now come that the sequel has recently wrapped production. Mia Goth returns to her role as Maxine and stars alongside Kevin Bacon, Elizabeth Debicki, ElizMaxine, Michelle Monaghan, Giancarlo Esposito, Lily Collins, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, and Moses Sumney. The film follows Maxine, the only survivor of the bloody incidents of X, as she continues her journey toward fame to be an actress in the 1980s Los Angeles. The premiere date has yet to be announced, but I wouldn’t be surprised if MaXXXine debuted before the year’s end. We’ll keep you posted. In the meantime, I recommend you watch X on AppleTV, Showtime, Prime Video, Showtime, DIRECTV, or Paramount+. You can find Pearl on AppleTV, Vudu, Amazon Video, Redbox, Google

Movie Review: Witchtrap (1989) - MVD Blu-ray

Movie Review: Witchtrap (1989) – MVD Blu-ray

A greasy, razzle-dazzle showbiz type is sent plummeting to his doom from within the unreasonably pink confines of a mansion formerly owned by a deceased warlock named Avery Lauter (J.P. Luebsen). In order to put an end to that wicked warlock, Lauter’s relative, Devon (played with wooden panache by the film’s writer/director Kevin Tenney, who also brought us 1986’s Witchboard, and 1988’s absolute masterpiece Night of the Demons… among many others), assembles a paranormal Suicide Squad consisting of a hodge-podge of mediums, ghost hunters, and security agents, lead by Dr. Agnes Goldberg (Judy Tatum, who arrives in the picture completely tits-out in the tub, as one does) and featuring none-other than legendary scream queen Linnea Quigley (who provides the film’s most memorable death sequence as well as it’s most memorable nudity… as is her wonderful way!) as the team’s videographer Ginger, to complete the task. Once in that dreaded domicile, the team begin experiencing all manner of supernatural shenanigans (up

Game Review: 'Alone in the Dark'

David Harbour & Jodie Comer Featured In Game Preview Of ‘Alone In The Dark’ Remake

THQ Nordic has announced that “Stranger Things” star David Harbour and Jodie Comer (Free Guy) will lend their voices to the game remake Alone In The Dark. Set in the American South during the 1920s, Alone In The Dark follows Emily Hartwood and private investigator Edward Carnby as they explore Derceto Manor, where Hartwood’s uncle has gone missing. Players will be able to play as either Comer or Harbour’s characters, with each protagonist offering a different view of the same story. Players will “encounter strange residents, nightmarish realms, dangerous monsters and ultimately uncover a plot of rising evil,” according to the Steam page for Alone In The Dark. “At the intersection of reality, mystery, and insanity, an adventure waits that will challenge your core beliefs. Who can you trust, what will you believe, and what will you do next?” The original game, which was released for PC in 1992, is credited with kicking off the 3D survival horror genre and

New 'Mother, May, I ?' Trailer Teases A Dark Twisted Horror-Thriller

New ‘Mother, May, I ?’ Trailer Teases A Dark Twisted Horror-Thriller

Headed your way this July is the psychological horror-thriller Mother, May, I? starring Kyle Gallner (Smile, Dinner In America), Holland Roden (“Teen Wolf”), and Chris Mulkey (Twin Peaks). This spine-chilling film is the debut feature of writer-director Laurence Vannicell, who developed the film along with Daisy Long, who choreographed the supernatural scenes. In this mind-bending film, “Emmett wants to clean and flip his recently deceased mother’s house: get in, get out, and avoid any trauma still lingering from when she abandoned him as a young child. Anya, his fiancé, see’s this as an opportunity to finally force Emmett to deal with his trauma because she believes it is preventing him from being the partner she needs. So she convinces him to take mushrooms to get him to let go. But something strange happens while they’re tripping: she starts behaving like his mother. The next morning he wakes up sober, but she still won’t drop the act… Anya loves playing games

Jack Quaid To Star In 'Barbarian' Director's Horror Film 'Companion'

Jack Quaid To Star In ‘Barbarian’ Director’s Horror Film ‘Companion’

Back in February, we reported that Barbarian director Zach Cregger had found his next project, Companion, which he will be producing. News has now come, via THR, that Jack Quaid, who recently put on the Ghostface costume in Scream, will star in the film, which marks the feature directorial debut of Drew Hancock (“Mr. Pickles,” “My Dead Ex”), who also penned the script for the film which is being described as a sci-fi horror film. THR reports, “Companion was won by New Line in a hot horror auction near the beginning of the year. It was initially going to act as BoulderLight and Cregger’s follow-up to Barbarian before the filmmaker switched tracks to focus on his own script, Weapons, also now casting and at New Line. But the team helped Companion land not just a home but greenlit the start of production, backing Hancock to make his directorial debut.” BoulderLight’s Raphael Margules and J.D. Lifshitz will produce alongside Vertigo’s Roy

Award-Winning Filmmaker & Actor Gregory Blair Announces Upcoming Horror Film

Gregory Blair, filmmaker, writer, and actor, has just announced his latest project, his third film, titled The Mystery of Emma Thorn, which centers on a woman who has disappeared, and her husband and son are left to unravel how and why. “This script wrote itself, in a way,” Blair states. “I originally thought I was going to write a more traditional mystery/thriller/horror sort of thing, but as I began writing, the characters led me down a more emotional path. Their connection, their love, their family dynamics and their grief all came out so strongly, they turned the film into something much more heartfelt and moving than I had planned. It’s now not just a mystery; it’s an emotional journey about loss, love and the causes and costs of lies.” When beloved wife and mother Emma Thorn has gone missing, her husband Ari and her son Casper work with a police detective to try to find her. But the circumstances under
