New ‘Pet Sematary’ Trailer Reminds Us That Sometimes “Dead Is Better”
The second trailer for Dennis Widmyer and Kevin Kolsch‘s new Pet Sematary adaptation is here. Not only does it reveal the history of the burial ground, but it reminds us that “sometimes dead is better.” The trailer also teases that this adaptation is very different from the original. Judging by the footage, this time it’s Louis’ daughter Ellie at the center of the story, not his young son Gage. The film follows “Dr. Louis Creed, who after relocating with his family from Boston to rural Maine, discovers a mysterious burial ground deep in the woods behind the family’s home. When tragedy strike, Louis turns to his unusual neighbor Jud, setting off a perilous chain reaction that unleashes an unfathomable evil with horrific consequences.” Twins Hugo and Lucas Lavoie star as Gage Creed in the new adaptation that also stars Jeté Laurence as young Ellie Creed. Jason Clarke (Winchester) and Amy Seimetz (Alien: Covenant) star as Louis and Rachel Creed, with

Movie Review: The Cannibal Club (2018)
Otavio (Tavinho Teixeira) is rich, bitch! My dude lives in a swank crib on a private beach, is the CEO of a private security company…and is a member in good standing in one hell of an elite club…a secret society of hoity-toity types heavily invested in making Brazil (where the film is set) a place devoid of anything other than their ilk. Oh and they eat people. Otavio takes his culinary tastes home with him as well, as he and his wife routinely murder the help…well, not until Gilda (Ana Luiza Rios) fucks them and O-dawg gets his fap on before burying an ax in anyone unfortunate enough to answer their Help Wanted ads…before cooking and eating them. Things go swimmingly until Gilda happens to peep a secret involving the club’s main man, the congressman Borges (Pedro Domingues)…a secret that if told would ruin his plans for re-election, and put the entire club in jeopardy. As you can imagine this

Small Town Monsters continues to explore the myths and reality of the most frightening legends. This time they take to the air with Terror in the Skies, whose trailer has just been unveiled. Director Seth Breedlove explores hundreds of years of terrifying reports of encounters with massive, winged creatures around the land of Lincoln.

Travis Stevens, the producer behind We Are Still Here, Cheap Thrills, and Starry Eyes makes his writing-directing debut with Girl on the Third Floor. Set to premiere at SXSW this March, the film’s festival trailer has just arrived, teasing an explosion of blood. Bursting pipes, rotting walls, and unidentifiable slime were not what Don Koch (WWE legend Phil “CM Punk” Brooks) expected when he convinced his wife Liz (Trieste Kelly Dunn of Showtime’s “Banshee” and “Applesauce”) that he could rehab their new Victorian home himself. In over his head, under duress, and tempted by his old weaknesses, Don soon discovers that the house has its own dark, sordid history and won’t be so easy to renovate after all… Also starring Sarah Brooks (We Are Still Here), Girl on the Third Floor is the debut film for newly formed Chicago-based production company QUEENSBURY PICTURES.

Movie Review: Suspiria (Reboot)
Luca Guadagnio’s reboot of Dario Argento’s classic Suspiria opens with a young dancer in a panic in her doctor’s office speaking of a coven of witches at her dance school. After reading her journal the doctor sets out on a mission to find the girl, but is it too late? Meanwhile a young woman auditions for the school. Her natural talent shines and the witches form a devious plan. The film is very different than the original in many ways. The bright use of color in the original is replaced with a drab background. The reimaging is far more sexual with references to bestiality, masturbation and the lead character of Susie, played by Dakota Johnson, nearly constantly humping the ground or on the verge of orgasm out of the blue, but it’s not sexy in the least. While Johnson is experienced is sexual characters, she is the star of the Fifty Shades of Grey, after all, the kink feels out

Women Of Horror Month: Melina Juergens, From Video Editor To Award-Winning Actress
Imagine you’re at work one day and by chance, they needed someone to step in and perform a task you were not trained for and you nailed it on your first try. After impressing your coworkers you keep the position and as a result, you won the highest honors for it. This is what happened to Melina Juergens, my personal pick for Women of Horror Month. German-born Melina was working as a video editor for Ninja Theory while they were in the middle of making, what would become, their multi-award-winning video game, Hellbade: Senua’s Sacrifice. When the time came to animate the title character’s movements, Melina stepped in to don the motion capture suit and perform as the game’s heroine Senua, this inadvertently became an audition. Impressing everyone, Melina was now officially playing the title role both voicing and acting out her actions via-motion capture. Adding more to it, her likeness was used for Senua forever cementing her place in

Earlier this year we sat down for an interview with Deborah Voorhees to talk about her upcoming horror film 13 Fanboy, a movie about a group of stars being hunted by a demented, obsessed Friday the 13th fan who plans to kill the franchise’s stars. The cast, made up of many Friday the 13th stars, has since grown. News has now come that Corey Feldman who played Jason’s child nemesis is Friday the 13th 4: The Final Chapter has come on board to star. He joins Kane Hodder, Tracie Savage, Thom Mathews, C.J. Graham, Jennifer Banko, Ron Sloan, Carol Locatell, and Judie Aronson who also starred in The Final Chapter. This is not a fan film. It is not a fan film at all. It is going to be in theaters and get a wide release as far as DVD and streaming. It isn’t directly associated with Friday the 13th and it’s very different from the Friday the 13th franchise.

Blu-ray Review: Purgatory Road (2017)
Man-oh-man, did Vincent Kirby (Michael Lebeau) ever make one hell of a shitty decision as a child. You see, ol’ V-man did nothing to stop a female thief from stealing his Dad’s cash, which had the adverse effect of making his Pa do the whole suicide bag. This lead Vincent to become a Catholic priest operating his “ministry” put of a piece of crap van in the rural south along with his brother Michael (Jacob Craig). Of course Father Vincent provides the service of taking Confession, and he pardons every sin…except stealing; anyone who admits to that wrong doing finds themselves in Deadsville courtesy of the rage of that petulant padre! Things go just peachy until a real psycho killer (must resist…Qu’est-ce que c’est…oh damn it) named Mary Francis (Trista Robinson) enters Vincent and Jacob’s lives. She of course digs their whole murder biz, but things soon become frayed between the brothers with Mary’s presence on the scene! Director Mark
