New Director Sinks His Fangs Into Marvel's 'Blade'

New Director Sinks His Fangs Into Marvel’s ‘Blade’

Yann Demange, who served as an exec produced for “Lovecraft Country,” as well as directed its pilot episode, has replaced Bassam Tariq as the director for Marvel’s upcoming Blade movie, which is being described as a more dark, gritty, and edgier movie than fans usually get from Marvel. The vampire movie also has a new writer, Emmy winner Michael Starrbury, known for The Inevitable Defeat of Mister & Pete and for writing episodes of series such as “When They See Us.” We last heard the voice of Oscar-winner and star Mahershala Ali as Blade in the post-credit scene of 2021’s Eternals (see the clip below) when Dane (Kit Harington)/ the Black Knight reaches for a sword wrapped in cloth in a wooden box. Before he can touch it, we hear the voice asking, “Are you sure you are ready for that, Mr. Whitman?” Watch the clip below. There’s more good news, Marvel has set already announced the release date of

Let’s focus our putrid peepers on Smoke and Mirrors: The Story of Tom Savini… Filmmaker Jason Baker, himself a professional special effects artist, begins his documentary with a quick montage of the maestro’s work before getting down to the first 1/3rd of the picture’s main concern; exploring Savini’s personal life, from his formative years in Pittsburgh, some of which were spent working a travelling spook-show, to his service in the Vietnam War, in an effort to learn what led him to become one of the greatest

Horror Fuel's Top Horror Games Reviewed In 2022

Horror Fuel’s Top Horror Games Reviewed In 2022

It’s that time of year as 2022 is coming to a close and along with it many game releases. This year was a busy review year, and going through the list I was able to come up with 15 horror games that I reviewed ranked from bad to good. It’s a long list so let’s start with one of the worse games reviewed this year, shall we? 35MM This Russian-made first-person game is labeled as a “Survival Horror” taking place in a post-apocalyptic world. The scariest thing about this game was how horrifically boring it was with a lack of scares and action. The game is more of a depressing walking simulator. Mothmen 1966 An 80s-style DOS game about a group of characters trying to survive a night with multiple Mothmen attacking them. The premise sounded promising but the game copped out on that. The game’s slow pace, and abrupt ending (just as a story was actually forming!) I wanted

Series Review: Tales to Keep you Awake (1966-1982)

Series Review: Tales to Keep you Awake (1966-1982)

Spanish filmmaker Narciso Ibáñez Serrador is a true punk rock filmmaker (yeah this is a weird way to start a review, but bear with me cats n’ creeps). Having dug on American horror and anthology series such as The Outer Limits, Thriller, and the like, the ambitious filmmaker just said “Fuck it, I can do this shit too.”… except he said it in Spanish (if at all)… and he did just that with his series Tales To Keep You Awake (albeit with way more vicious violence and sweet, sweet grizzly gore than all of those show’s combined)! Comprised of a series that ran from 1966 – 1968, a stand alone 1974 special, and a small revival series from 1982, Tales is chock full of adaptations of work from masters such as Edgar Allan Poe, Ray Bradbury, and Robert Bloch… not to mention a direct swipe or two from the aforementioned TV shows. Filmed in atmospheric black and white, these rippin’

What follows is a wicked whirlwind courtship, and before long Herman has inadvertently sold The Count’s ancestral home, because while he does have a brain in his head it isn’t a particularly functioning one. Will that freaky family be able to find a new dread domicile they can call home? Rob Zombie is back with his latest film, The Munsters… and while the on-line chatter was grumpy A.F. concerning this fun fright flick, fans of the popular sitcom upon
