So let’s dive in, shall we boils n’ ghouls? First up comes: Nemesis 2: Nebula (1995): Decades after the first film’s hero Alex Rain (because Olivier Grunner was busy doing who knows fuckin’ what and doesn’t return for this sequel) failed to stop the cyborg revolution, outlaw scientists develop some DNA that could prove to be curtains for those pesky cyborgs so they jam that shit into a preggo lady, who naturally becomes number one with (multiple) bullet(s) on the cyborg hit list.

Previously, I’ve talked about a new first-person horror game titled Moons of Madness, a space exploration game with a Lovecraft twist. A lot has changed since I last shared about the game, mainly the release date changed, but for the better. Rocket Pocket Games has teamed up with Funcom and have set the game’s release around the Halloween season this year! Along with a new release date comes new information about the game. As previously mentioned you play as Shane Newhart, a technician working at a secret research base stationed on Mars. Your job is just tech work and making sure the lights don’t go out and having low-security clearance prevents you from knowing the real reason for the station’s presence on Mars. Soon Shane will begin to see and hear things that aren’t there…or are they? He’ll discover that he’s alone at the station…or is he? Cosmic horrors the likes of which Lovecraft wrote about will make its presence

The trend of remakes and reboots shows no signs of slowing, in fact, today, we have news about another classic being revamped, The Craft. That’s right, The Craft. Three years ago there was a remake in the works from director Leigh Janiak (Honeymoon) who has since stepped away. Now, Blumhouse has found a new director, Zoe-Lister Jones (“Life in Pieces”). There was a script by Janiak and Phil Graziadei that picked up 20 years after the original movie with a new group of witches, but there is no word if the script will be used or if a new one will be written. Doug Wick, who produced the original, will be returning to produce along with Jason Blum. Andrew Fleming directed the original film that centered on a new girl (Robin Tunney) in town who joins a group of young witches played by Fairuza Blak, Neve Campbell, and Rachel True.

Earlier this year we reported that Aquaman actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II has joined the cast of director Nia DaCosta‘s “spiritual sequel” to the Candyman franchise. At the time we were led to believe that he would be taking over the role of Candyman originally played by Tony Todd. But that may not be true after all. DaCosta recently clarified Mateen’s role during a conversation with Collider. Well, it’s been slightly misreported,” DaCosta said. “I can’t say what’s happening in the film because we want it to be a surprise, but he’s not replacing Tony Todd. That’s been reported, and I was just like, ‘I don’t know what to say about this. This is not right.” At the moment we have no clue what’s going to happen in the film, but we’re glad to hear that Tony Todd has not been replaced. So that leaves the question of who will Yahya Abdul-Mateen II play? Here’s what we do know: Teyonah Parris

School plays usually don’t bring to mind horror, except for the fact that they are usually terrifyingly dull. But one high school play is taking social media by storm, the North Bergen High School Drama Club in New Jersey is making headlines with their recent stage production of Alien.
