A few days ago we reported that Bruce Campbell would be making a big announcement during Ripley’s Believe It or Not’s New Year’s Eve countdown. Now that the ball has dropped we can tell you that Campbell will be the new host of the revived series “Ripley’s Believe It or Not” that looks into strange events, interesting people, and amazing artifacts. Ripley’s mad a fantastic choice. Campbell is the perfect host, he’s talented and so charismatic. The new series will air on the Travel Channel in 2019. Ripley’s posted a teaser telling fans to “believe it”, which has been their long-running tagline. The man is a true horror icon. He cut his teeth on films like The Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, and the series “Ash vs. Evil Dead”. He also made a cameo on the series “Lodge 49” in 2018. Campbell teased that he was working on something big during our 2018 interview and I “believe” this certainly qualifies.

The second feature from filmmaker Scott Dunn and producer Gina Gomez, Mandao of the Dead (review) combines temporal hijinks with chills from beyond the grave in a film Horror Fuel calls “a charming winner of a flick.” In the film, unambitious Jay Mandao lives frugally off his late father’s cereal royalties. He wants nothing more than to live in solitude but is duped into taking in his adult nephew-in-law, Jackson. As Halloween approaches, Jay begins having odd dreams and comes to find that he has the ability of astral projection. Jay and Jackson are approached by a ghost who has a small window of opportunity to reverse his death at the hands of Jackson’s murderous ex-girlfriend. Scott Dunn, Alexandra Chen, Samara Kohne, Gina Gomez, Marisa Hood, and David Gallegos star, Mandao of the Dead is now exclusively streaming on Amazon and will arrive on iTunes in 2019.

It’s been ten years since zombie fans were introduced to Zombieland. Now, the sequel is finally on its way. We’ve reported that the main cast, Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, Jesse Eisenberg, and Abigail Breslin, are returning to their roles. Today, we have more casting news. According to GWW, Bill Murray will also be back, but he’s not coming alone. The site is reporting that Murray’s fellow Ghostbuster Dan Aykroyd has also joined the cast of Zombieland 2. While their roles are still unknown, it is said that the two will be playing fictional versions of themselves, which is odd seeing that Murray’s character died in the first film. We also know that several new characters have also been added, Reno, TB, Cleveland, Madison. Avan Jogia will play the role of Berkley. Zoe Deutch will star as one of the new characters, though we are not sure which one. Part two is said to center on the group as they try

The most highly anticipated horror film of the year, Halloween, is now out on digital and of course, I had to see it. The film opens with two podcasters arriving at Smith’s Grove prison mental asylum where Michael Myers (Nick Castle) has been for the past 40 years. The two arrive on the eve of Michael’s transfer to a more secure hospital. As the two enter the yard where Michael and several other patients are chained. We see that Michael has aged, he is balding and sporting a white beard. One of the podcasters, played by Jefferson Hall, reaches into his bag and pulls out Michael’s mask. While Michael doesn’t turn around the other patients go into hysterics. During Michael’s imprisonment, Laurie has never stopped training, waiting for her chance to kill him. During that time Laurie had a daughter who has become a mother herself. Unfortunately, Laurie and her family have a strained relationship with many believing she has

After kids begin to disappear around their town in 1984, a group of friends begins their own investigation. After spending their summer gathering evidence they zero in on a suspect, their neighbor officer Wayne Mackey (Rich Sommer). The closer they get to the truth, the more danger they face. Graham Verchere, Judah Lewis, Caleb Emry, Cory-Gruter-Andrew, Tiera Skovbye, Jason Gray-Stanford, and Rich Sommer star in Summer of 84. Directed by the trio of François Simard, Anouk Whissell, and Yoann-Karl Whissell, Summer of 84 is a dark, brilliant, pulse-pounding throwback to the thrillers of the eighties’. When we first meet the boys, you can understand how their parents could believe they’re jumping to conclusions, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. They will soon face a serial killer. The young cast did an absolutely fantastic job of not only projecting the innocence of their age but also their character’s fear and determination to find out who is behind the missing
