One Of The Best Horror Films Of The Year, ‘The Cursed’, Is Now Out On VOD

We here at HorrorFuel don’t use the phrase “one of the best horror films of the year,” lightly, but that’s exactly what we called The Cursed in our review. Now, this brilliant, dark, and brutal werewolf film is available on VOD ahead of its Blu-ray release this May. The gothic film, originally titled Eight for Silver, is set ”In the late 1800s, a once-peaceful remote country village is under attack—but by who or what, no one knows. Villagers spread rumors of a cursed land, supernatural forces, and even demonic creatures, as the disappearances and killings continue. Pathologist John McBride arrives to investigate the danger, only to discover something much deeper and more sinister than he ever could have imagined.” Written and directed by Sean Ellis, the film stars Boyd Holbrook (The Sandman, The Fugitive, Logan), Kelly Reilly (“Yellowstone,” “True Detective”), and Alistair Petrie (“Sex Education,” Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, The Night Manager) and is a reimagining of the

Horror Movies And Series Featuring Horses

Horror Movies And Series Featuring Horses

Horses are human companions for thousands of years and are probably one of the most loyal animals that had a huge part in our history. Back in the day, horses were used for transportation, construction, and nowadays, they are enjoyed for casual riding or horse racing. With such a big impact on our history, horses inspired a lot of directors with their extraordinary appearances, capabilities, and emotions, which is why we can find horses in many movies nowadays. In this particular article, we are digging a bit deeper into the horror niche of movies and series, just to see how horses are playing their part. It is not unusual to see horses in horror movies, especially in the gothic movie category where horses, such as the ones in the TwinSpires Kentucky Derby winners list, play an important role. With that said, let’s highlight some movie or series horror scenes that were focused on the horse. The Ring When we talk

Movie Reviews: “Sissy” (SXSW)

Movie Reviews: “Sissy” (SXSW)

Australian horror comedy Sissy is a delight, addressing social media culture and bullying as it delivers large shares of laughter and gore. Cecilia (Aisha Dee) has 200,000 followers on her self-help “Sincerely Cecilia” channel, on which she leads meditation practices and plugs paid sponsors. When she randomly runs into childhood best friend Emma (Hannah Barlow) at a pharmacy, she is obviously uncomfortable, though Emma seems genuinely glad to see her, and invites Cecilia — formerly known as Sissy — to her hens party (bachelorette party). Cecilia arrives, only to find out that Alex (Emily De Margheriti), who bullied Cecilia as a child, is also in attendance. A violent occurrence between the two took place when they were youngsters, and Alex isn’t about to let “Sissy” forget it. Humor ranging from the uncomfortable to the jaw-dropping ensues, as old wounds are opened — quite literally, in one scene — and one deadly deed leads to another. Codirectors/cowriters Barlow and Kane Senes
