Following an absolutely gorgeous opening sequence set in 1948 where a young boy who dreams of being a pilot is confronted by a gigantic bird of prey he can scarcely believe, we begin our journey into the investigation of preternatural beings who have made their home in the skies over Illinois for decades in Terror in the Skies; the latest cryptid-focused documentary from Small Town Monsters and their resident demonic director (and writer too) Supernatural Seth Breedlove (okay…maybe he isn’t supernatural, but he sure does talk about the creepy side o’ life quite a bit. Don’t believe me? Check out my revoltin’ reviews of some of his past docs here, and here)! First up we learn the history of this monster-laden land; including chit-chat about the Thunderbirds (called the Piasa Bird in this region) that tormented the Native Americans indigenous to ancient Illinois, and supposedly resided in a deep cave littered with human bones (a cave that some dude in

I had the honor of sitting down with special effects master and Primetime Emmy Award winner Todd Masters who has been in the special effects industry for forty years and has worked on a horde of projects including Tales from the Crypt, Slither, Skyscraper starring Dwayne Johnson, and most recently Lars Kleveberg‘s new Child’s Play movie. Todd walked me through how Chucky was brought to life and so much more. In the film, Aubrey Plaza plays the role of a mother who gives her son (Gabriel Bateman) a Buddi doll for his birthday, unaware of its sinister nature. Beatrice Kitsos (“The Exorcist”), Brian Tyree Henry (“Atlanta”), Ty Consiglio, and Carlease Burke (Shameless) also star in the film written by Tyler Burton Smith (Kung Fury). Mark Hamill voices the killer doll. Horror Fuel: “I have to confess, dolls freak me out. I was exposed to Chucky a little too young.” Todd Masters: “Oh, really? Where are you on the whole Chucky

The next film from The Conjuring Universe is the Gary Dauberman-directed Annebelle Comes Home in which a horde of entities attached to haunted objects are released from the Warren’s museum. One of those entities is The Bride, attached to a haunted wedding dress. We are introduced to The Bride in a new teaser, leaving us to wonder if she will be the star of another Conjuring Universe spin-off. In fact, we will meet several new entities in Annabelle Comes Home meaning we may have several new possible spin-offs. The legend of The Bride goes something like this: when a new bride slips on the dress she is eventually driven to stab her groom to death. What was meant to be a bride’s happiest day comes to a bloody, deadly end. The blood stains disappear from the dress and once again it finds its way up for sale, waiting to ruin another wedding day. By the time Ed (Patrick Willson) and

A while back I wrote an article about a game being developed called Lorn. Well as you can probably guess judging by this article, a lot has changed since! The four brother team of Teamkill Media worked tirelessly to bring the game to its full potential and finally have a release date! The game, now called Kings of Lorn: the Fall of Ebris, will take players to the plague-ridden world of Lera where king Farren set out to rid the world of the scourge only to unknowingly plunge it further into chaos. Players take on the role of Farren as he journeys through the hellish landscape that was once his kingdom fighting to restore order in this first-person experience fighting hellish creatures and members of his former order. Kings of Lorn: the Fall of Ebris will be coming September 9th for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Teamkill Media is so proud of their project that they could not wait

Wesley Snipes killed off hundreds of vampires in the Blade franchise, now he’s taking a stab at zombies in Outbreak Z, THR reports. Director Chris Brewster recently told ComicBook.com, “I am so excited to begin the world of Outbreak Z. Wesley is an absolute legend in entertainment and martial arts. It is an honor teaming up with him and joining forces with one of the best in the world. Having him on the team, allows us to create a style of zombie/horror films that have never been seen.

One cold and frosty night; two comely lasses, Robin and Monica (Sullivan Hester and Laura Kallison) are making their way to a soiree when they are carjacked by a terrifying trio (well, two of them are scary anyway) of escaped convicts (one of whom is so strong he can keep a vehicle from moving simply by holding on it’s bumper). Now you may say to yourself “Hey, that could make for an okay fright flick…a bit overdone perhaps, but solid nonetheless.” Well, you may say that, but Trapped Alive certainly isn’t listening…I mean it can’t “listen” really; it’s a movie filmed over three decades ago, and…where the fuck was I? Oh yeah; so that vehicle goes of the road and crashes into an abandoned mine shaft…well, not really “abandoned” as it’s home to a cannibalistic mutant, as is the way (and definitely spices up the proceedings). Thankfully for our heroines, the local sheriff (Randy Powell) is on the case…and by
