IFC Midnight’s Unsettling Horror ‘Hatching’ Out Today On Digital And VOD

IFC Midnight’s unsettling new horror film, Hatching, which gives off seriously creepy vibes, is out today on Digital and VOD! In the film, 12-year-old gymnast, Tinja (Siiri Solalinna), is desperate to please her image-obsessed mother, whose popular blog ‘Lovely Everyday Life’ presents their family’s idyllic existence as manicured suburban perfection. One day, after finding a wounded bird in the woods, Tinja brings its strange egg home, nestles it in her bed, and nurtures it until it hatches. The creature that emerges becomes her closest friend and a living nightmare, plunging Tinja beneath the impeccable veneer into a twisted reality that her mother refuses to see, forcing the girl to choose between two monsters. Directed by Hanna Bergholm and written by IIja Rautsi, Hatching stars Siiri Solalinna, Sophia Heikkilä, Jani Volanen, Oiva Ollila, and Reino Nordin. Mika Ritalahti, Nico Ritalahti, and Nima Yousefi produce. Hatching (review) made its World Premiere at Sundance before opening in theaters and now arriving today (May

FKA Twiggs Joins The Cast Of ‘The Crow’

Today, we have more casting news. Singer FKA Twigs, who made her acting debut in Honey Boy, has joined the cast and will star opposite Skarsgård.

Blu-ray Review: The Halfway House (2004)

Blu-ray Review: The Halfway House (2004)

Things start off with that hot n’ heavy jogging action so popular with the youth of today before dovetailing into a naked sacrifice to a monster… so begins Kenneth J. Hall’s horror-comedy/creature-feature/softcore sex flick, The Halfway House! So about that jogger… well, she’s the sister of one Larissa Morgan (Janet Tracy Keijser) and she isn’t the type to take a missing sister lying down… unless she’s busy fucking a detective, one Dick Sheen (Shawn Savage) by name, to convince her to help her find her missing sib. Said investigation leads to our heroine going undercover at the local church-run halfway house for wayward “girls” lorded over by the stern Sister Cecilia (genre legend Mary Woronov of Roger Corman’s Death Race 2000 fame… and about a billion others), who by day keeps the ladies in line through a healthy dose of fear, and by night sacrifices anyone that tries to escape the house’s wicked walls to the tooth and tentacle heavy

Controversial, Brutal, Gore-Filled Horror ‘The Sadness’ Lands On Shudder

The controversial, super brutal horror film The Sadness, which nearly caused a riot by disturbed viewers at its festival screening, is now streaming on Shudder. Written and directed by Rob Jabbaz, the story “follows a young couple, played by Regina Lei (76 Horror Bookstore) and Berant Zhu (We Are Champions, How to Train Our Dragon), trying to reunite amid a city ravaged by a plague that turns its victims into deranged, bloodthirsty sadists. Tzu Chiang Wang (It’s Drizzling) and In Ru Chen also star. The film is produced by David Barker and executive produced by Li-Cheng Huang, while Eunice Cheng’s associate produced for Machi Xcelsior Studios. The Sadness, which features English subtitles, was shot in Taipei, Taiwan.

Blu-ray Review: House On the Edge of the Park 3-Disc Limited Edition (1980)

Blu-ray Review: House On the Edge of the Park 3-Disc Limited Edition (1980)

Alex (David Hess, who coincidentally also starred in Wes Craven’s 1972 masterpiece The Last House on the Left… a title I’m sure I won’t be mentioning again in this review) is a true renaissance man with many passions; disco dancing, acting smarmy, and being a sexually violent serial killer. One night, Alex and his pal Ricky (Italian horror regular Giovanni Lombardo Radice in an amazing t-shirt) are invited to a swank house in New Jersey for a disco party full of discoing. Once there, the rich pricks that are throwing the shindig immediately begin taking advantage of the rather dim Ricky, and our “hero” turns on the apish charm, only to get blue balled. These things goes over like a fart in a submarine for Alex and before long he’s pulled out his straight razor and the night immediately devolves into card-playing, swimming, face slashing (there it is), sexual assault (and again… ), and of course, tchotchke smashing (“Oh, the
