If you think your average Monday is rough, try waking up with total amnesia, a fresh corpse in your bathtub, and half the city’s underworld battering down your door. The new teaser has just dropped for Bad Day at the Office. The turbo-charged action-thriller Bad Day at the Office offers genre fans a front-row seat to pure, unadulterated cinematic chaos. Get ready. It’s making its World Premiere as the opening-night film for the Midnight Madness section at the Edinburgh International Film Festival on August 13. Shot entirely from a first-person perspective. It uses GoPro camera rigs. The film transforms the traditional action-thriller formula into a high-octane, interactive nightmare. Every bone-crunching punch, high-speed chase, and massive explosion is experienced directly through the eyes of the protagonist. This makes the audience feel less like passive viewers and more like they’ve been handed the controller. A Stacked Cast in the Line of Fire Director Chee Keong Cheung has assembled an impressive ensemble cast

Spooky season has officially arrived, and the Disney Store is leading the charge with two massive new drops: one celebrating classic Disney Villains, and the other honoring the undisputed king of dark rides, The Haunted Mansion. I was practically floating when I walked out to my mailbox and spotted a huge white parcel courtesy of the Disney Store. Naturally, I had to film an unboxing for you—the blood-pumping heart that keeps HorrorFuel going! Check out the video below to watch me unbox and model the extremely cozy Haunted Mansion zip-up hoodie and matching keychain. The Unboxing & The Goods Now, the outer mailer bag had clearly survived a harrowing journey through the postal system, but inside, the merch was pristine and wrapped tight. First up was the Haunted Mansion zip-up hoodie. The black fabric is covered in the ride’s iconic, creepy wallpaper pattern—complete with purple faces and piercing lime-green eyes. The inner lining is ridiculously soft; calling it “plush” feels

As a writer, you spend a lot of time in isolation, or attempt it, to write with the silent prayers to whatever divine being that’s out there listening, that you’ll be left the f-ck alone. Well, in Carlos Azuaga’s and Jandusoft’s Yellowcreek Stories-The Cabin Watcher, that’s not gonna happen! Yellowcreek Stories: The Cabin Watcher follows a writer named Terry, who is staying at a remote cabin in the forest to work on his latest novel. Unfortunately, his calming night is interrupted by an escapee with a bloodlust that knows no end. Now, onto the game itself. The controls for Yellowcreek Stories: The Cabin Watcher are minimal, which I’ll go into more towards the end. The game’s art is interesting, but I fear it may be AI assets; I can’t confirm as the game’s ending credits were sparse, leading to this concern. The game’s soundtrack fits the story as it screams 80s synth. Normally I don’t like games that lack voice-overs,

The year 2026 has been flooded with shark cinema. However, the vast majority of these aquatic thrillers are dead in the water long before the end credits roll. Leading the school as arguably the absolute worst entry of the year is Chum, a movie so aggressively tedious that it makes sitting through a bad wedding feel like a luxury getaway. Warning: Spoilers ahead The Plot The nightmare begins with a picture-perfect destination wedding on the sun-drenched coast of Malta. The champagne flows, vows are exchanged, and the newlyweds attempt to put on a brave face for their guests. The festivities take a quick dive into absurdity. An oversized killer shark crashes the party, stranding the group at sea. When open-water survival against an apex predator seems like the main threat, enter Roy (Jim Klock). Roy is a local fisherman. The Captain is unhinged in every sense of the word. Roy isn’t there to rescue anyone. Driven mad by grief, he

Official Fantasia synopsis from program notes written by Vincenzo Nappi After learning of an evil rock ’n’ roll music promoter’s plan to use heavy metal as a means of enforcing society’s cyclical self-destructive nature and to keep individuals from true self-realization, a metallic-skinned and incredibly well-dressed alien beams down to earth to try to save humanity. However, as his presence attracts the attention of private investigators and corrupt police forces, the stranger must fight to keep society from reaching its hedonistic end. Review Devotees of genre-film musicals that combine horror and science fiction elements with rock and roll are bound to get a kick out of Canadian International Pictures’ terrific new 4K restoration of director Tibor Takács’ 1978 Canadian feature Metal Messiah. Written by Stephen Zoller and based on his play, the film is a gritty journey from the mind of noirish detective Philip Chandler (Richard Ward Allen) to the streets and rock clubs of late seventies Toronto, to places

Along with a batch of five terrifying new demon character posters, the last trailer for Insidious: Out of the Further has officially dropped. And it confirms that the sixth installment leaves the Lambert family’s multi-decade trauma in the rear-view mirror. They are introducing a protagonist with a uniquely dangerous ability. Following 2023’s Insidious: The Red Door, this next chapter shifts focus to Gemma. She’s a single mother played by Amelia Eve (The Haunting of Bly Manor). Gemma and her young daughter (Island Austin) are trying to build a quiet life in Gemma’s childhood home. However, a disturbing encounter reveals a dark gift: Gemma can naturally astrally project into the franchise’s iconic, spirit-filled purgatory. The real threat, however, lies in her unprecedented connection to the entity-ridden realm. Unlike Elise Rainier or the Lamberts, who fought tooth and nail to keep the threshold sealed, Gemma can permanently pull ghastly entities out of the Further and anchor them directly into the physical world.
