How many times have we heard a horror film advertised as “scary as hell” or “the scariest film in decades”? Well, this time, the hype might actually be true. At Sundance, the horror film Hereditary, the feature debut from writer-director Ari Aster, premiered and it is getting a lot of buzz. Many are taking to social media stating it is the scariest film they’ve ever seen. And when I say a lot of people, I really mean a crapload of people. So, what is the film about? It starts when Ellen, the matriarch of the Graham family, passes away and her daughter’s family begins to unravel cryptic and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry. The more they discover, the more they find themselves trying to outrun the sinister fate they seem to have inherited. Toni Collette, Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff, Ann Dowd, Zachary Arthur, Ann Dowd, and Milly Shapiro star. Hereditary is set to be released on June 8, 2018,

Warning: Potential spoilers ahead! I’m a fan of zombies, I’m a fan of movies, so, therefore, I’m a fan of (a good) zombie movie. When I heard about a new movie starring Ellen Page coming out called The Cured about zombies that were cured and trying to re-enter society, I thought, “Oh they made In the Flesh into a movie?” but after seeing the trailer and reading what critics are saying, I’ll be honest I was shocked. Many are hailing the upcoming Irish film as “original” and “unique” but what I saw is a copy of an original. Over time many zombie films have had little moments where zombies act human again or show signs that they remember a small part of themselves, granted usually for dramatic effect before they are killed right before the eyes of a past loved one. In 2013 there was Warm Bodies, a horror rom-com about a zombie falling in love with a human girl

The sequel, which filmed this summer in Cape Town, South Africa, has received a 2018 release and an R rating for “creature violence, gore, and for language”. The trailer has swum in (via IGN) and proves once again that playing god with smart sharks is a horrible idea. Darin Scott (Tales from the Hood) is in the director’s chair for the sequel, simply titled Deep Blue Sea 2. Michael Beach, Rob Mayes, Danielle Savre, Nathan Lynn, and Darron Meyer star. Erik Patterson, Hans Rodionoff, and Jessica Scott penned the script for Syfy.
