From IFC Films and Shudder comes Birth/Rebirth, the directorial debut of Laura Moss, a new emotional and unnerving spin on Mary Shelley’s iconic tale of Frankenstein. In the film, “Rose (Marin Ireland) is a pathologist who prefers working with corpses over social interaction. She also has an obsession — the reanimation of the dead. Celie (Judy Reyes) is a maternity nurse who has built her life around her bouncy, chatterbox six-year-old daughter, Lila (A.J. Lister). When Lila suddenly falls ill one tragic night and dies, the two women’s worlds crash into each other. They embark on a dark path of no return, where they will be forced to confront how far they are willing to go to protect what they hold most dear.” Marin Ireland, Judy Reyes, A.J. Lister, Breeda Wool, Monique Gabriela Curnen, and LaChanze star in the film produced by Mali Elfman, David Grove Churchill Viste. Jordan Barker and Brendan J. O’Brien executive produce. Birth/Rebirth, which HorrorFuel.com’s Joseph

The second season of SYFY’s series “SurrealEstate” is now underway, and I couldn’t have been happier when the announcement was made. I loved the first season. I was thrilled to sit down with Georg Olson, the show’s creator and showrunner, to discuss the second season and the thrills and chills that await us, as well as what the future might hold for the show. Olson, who also penned the movie First Person Shooter, a Tubi Original, has created a unique combo with the scripted series that explores themes of horror, the paranormal, and the supernatural while being a real estate drama. Starring Tim Rozon, Adam Korson, Maurice Dean Wint, Savannah Basley, Sarah Levy, and Cassidy Barry, “SurrealEstate” centers on Realtor Luke Roman and an elite team of specialists handle the cases that no one else can: haunted and possessed houses that scare would-be buyers away. Watch season one of “SurrealEstate” now on Hulu and watch the new season on SYFY

All You Need Is Death (Ireland, 2023) Writer/director Paul Duane’s Irish folk horror All You Need Is Death is a terrific slow burner that fairly drips with dread as it takes viewers on a ride to wholly unexpected places. Young couple Anna (Simone Collins) and Aleks (Charlie Maher) are musicians who surreptitiously collect rare, unrecorded folk songs to sell for a profit. No-nonsense Agnes (Catherine Siggins) is one of the people to whom they attempt to sell, and she is particularly interested in a song seemingly known only to reclusive, eccentric, elderly Rita Concannon (Olwen Fouéré). Rita agrees to sing the song to Anna and Agnes under certain strict conditions, and when one of those conditions is broken, the story begins to head into mind-boggling territory best left unspoiled. Suffice it to say that folk horror is not the only fear-fare subgenre on display. Duane helms and paces the macabre proceedings wonderfully, and the main cast members, which also include

Just when you thought things couldn’t be any wilder than Sharknado, comes a movie more dangerous, more deadly, Monsternado. “A tornado, infested with prehistoric monsters, has formed in the Bermuda Triangle and is making its way towards land. Megalodon, Pterodactyls, Giant Octopuses, Crocodiles, and more attack – now the city must fight to survive against these deadly creatures.” “Another fantastic film from Tyler James, whose The Lochness Monster, also releases in November, Monsternado is fun, frightening, and brimming with some very cool special effects sequences”, said Keith Leopard, President Uncork’d Entertainment. Batton down the hatches and brace yourself; Monsternado makes landfall on Digital and DVD on November 14, 2023, from Unkork’d Entertainment.

When I think of 2D Pixle-art games, I remember the old DOS games I played as a kid. As a kid, they were spooky, but after growing up and seeing the evolution of graphics, I now look back at how lame they were. Unfortunately, I still hold this view. Can Indisruption and Blowfish Studios’ psychological horror Vlad Circus: Descend Into Madness make me change my mind? In Vlad Circus: Descend Into Madness, players play the role of Oliver “Lazy Ollie” Mills, a former circus clown. Ollie has been invited to Petrescu Manor along with some former circus performers, with the hope of revealing the haunting truth behind the tragedy that struck Vlad Circus eight years prior. Now, on to the game itself! When it comes to the controls, they are pretty easy to remember the layout once you learn them, I only wish there was a better tutorial system for it though. The soundtrack is great and fits the narrative
