It’s October and that means it’s time to get into the spirit of the season, and obviously nothing gets you into the Halloween mood better than horror. Unfortunately when it comes to most live-action horror films, there’s only so much that can be done and shown, but thankfully of all things, Anime can cross the line with story, gore, and intriguing storytelling. So for every day this month, I’ll be featuring a unique Anime that fits the horror genre that you can most likely find on any streaming service. Let’s ask for revenge with the help from Hell Girl! Hell Girl (2005) is about a website that can only be accessed at midnight where a person enters the name of someone they want revenge against, the person will be sent to hell and the one requesting the vengeance will have their soul taken to hell too when they die. The show also revolves around the one who operates the website,

I really don’t want to review Bullets of Justice. What I do want to do is watch Bullets of Justice… again, and again… Why? Because Bullets of Justice is one of the most downright bat-shit insane fucking films I’ve ever set my mother fuckin’ eerie eyeballs upon! In the aftermath of a third world war, civilization lies in ruins. What few humans survive are sterile and hunted ruthlessly by Muzzles; human/pig hybrids that were created to be super soldiers, but instead became psychos who crave human flesh. Enter Rob Justice (Timur Turisbekov, who also co-wrote the film) and his mustachioed sister/lover Raksha (Doroteya Toleva); offspring of the late, great, and equally mustachioed Grave-digger (Danny Trejo)… two of the baddest mother fucker’s around, and the only ones truly capable of ending the swine menace once and for all. Sounds weird, but not as crazy as I made out above, right? Fucking wrong. Dead wrong. You see also involved in this is

Writer-director Nicole Groton‘s female-driven horror thriller Darkness in Tenement 45 about a biological threat that causes people to seek isolation, a topic very poignant these days, is set to arrive this November. The award-winning film is set in the 1950s centers on “Joanna (Nicole Tompkins) who has been living with her overbearing Aunt Martha, in a low-income NYC tenement building ever since a violent outburst left her fighting a force that she can only describe as the “darkness.” Little did she know that weeks after moving in, a biological threat from the Soviet Union would leave the building boarded up and the tenants locked inside. With food dwindling and Martha’s controversial role as leader expanding, Joanna rallies the children in an attempt to save the building. Tensions come to a violent head when Martha delves into Joanna’s past and Joanna struggles to keep the darkness from overtaking her entirely.” Nicole Tompkins, David Labiosa, Melissa Macedo, Casey Kramer, Keyon Bowman, and

The blood-drenched indie cannibal horror Human Hibachi was set to arrive on Amazon this month but has now been banned on Amazon due to its intense, horrific, and graphic nature. But don’t worry, you can still witness the carnage this month on the official Human Hibachi website. In the film, a man documents his girlfriend’s 35th birthday on his phone. What he captures throughout the night are the most disturbing human acts imaginable. So when I made this film, I knew some of the stuff that I put in it might exclude us from platforms like Amazon, however, I wanted to see my vision through so I wasn’t going to let that hold me back. The main goal was to make something different… something that will be remembered and I’ll take that over being rejected by a platform any day.” Director Mario Cerrito states. Elizabeth Gaynor, Carmine Giordano, Wataru Nishida, Carley Harper, Sopheaktra Theng, Andrew Hunsicker, John Campanile, and Stafford

Ben (Morgan Krantz) gets the shit-hot idea to go camping for a three day weekend after calling it quits with his main squeeze. Well that idea goes tits-up with the quickness, as upon his arrival to that fateful forest, our boy Benny discovers a hearing impaired woman named Shan (Maya Stojan) locked in the trunk of a car… and the dude responsible doesn’t take kindly to intrusions on his kidnapping biz. Now it’s up to our hero to solve the mystery (which ends up involving buried treasure hidden in a duo of safes, and a strange map utilized to locate them) armed as he is with the victim’s cellphone… and believe you me that lil’ bit of the ol’ sleuthin’ ends up having more twists n’ turns than a sinister sidewinder! Written and directed by Wyatt McDill, 3 Day Weekend is nothing if not a flat-out modern crime masterpiece. Featuring a limited cast, a handful of locations (mostly exteriors), and

Last year, when Netflix aired the genre series “The Haunting of Hill House,” I had no clue that a series could ever reach the ranks it did in my book. A nearly perfect series unfolded before, and I was left bragging about it to anyone who would listen. I’ve seen the series four times since the first time I was introduced to the Crian family. So imagine my excitement when “The Haunting of Bly Manor” was announced; I was ecstatic, to put it mildly. With many of “Hill House’s” cast returning, I knew in my heart that this season would be just as good as the first; you could say that I had high hopes. But did it stand up to my expectations? That’s what I’m here to discuss. Based on Henry James’ “Turning of the Screw” as well as a few other of James’ stories, “The Haunting of Bly Manor” is a haunting tale of a young American teacher
