‘Blair Witch’ Coming To Nintendo Switch

Switch users will soon get to experience the horror Blair Witch as it makes its way to Nintendo, allowing players to take the horror with them wherever they go, probably not a good idea to play this game in the woods, abandoned buildings, or in basements… but if you choose to that would actually be pretty badass of you, not gonna lie! In Blair Witch players will experience the horror set in 1996 after the events of the Blair Witch Project through the eyes of Ellis, who ventures into the Black Hills forest with his dog Bullet in search of a boy that went missing only soon to learn that something is terribly wrong with these woods and that he and Bullet are not alone. I did a review for Blair Witch on Xbox One and you can see it here, but if you just want to know what I thought of it without reading the review, in short, the

Horror Fuel’s 6 Best And Worst Games Reviewed In 2019

The year is coming to a close and officially I have no more video games to review for the year! 2019 was a roller coaster of hits and misses when it came to gaming. There have been exciting announcements that are making gamers excited for the new year like the new Half-Life VR (my prediction is next there will be a Half-Life Mobile THEN we may see Half-Life 3), there’s been hyped up games like Death Stranding that disappointed and confused many and divided Kojima fans. Then there’s our little corner here in the world. I was fortunate enough to review quite a few games this year but it’s that time I have to look back at the ones that matter, the horror ones, and see which titles I’ve reviewed that after completion I would still keep their ratings the same, and which I would probably banish to the shadow realm! Here’s some behind the scenes info for you guys,

Trailer Conjured Up For ‘Blair Witch’ Parody ‘The Claire Wizard Thesis’

Back in 1999, The Blair Witch Project debuted and went on to gross nearly 250 million dollars worldwide after being made on a meager $60,000 budget. Now, almost 20 years later, writer, actor, director, producer and self-proclaimed “hitmaker” Jacob Lewis has teamed up with Terror Films to deliver the “laziest excuse for a found footage film you will ever bear witness to”, The Claire Wizard Thesis. The brainchild of Australian actor and writer Ishak Issa, the horror comedy, his feature debut, centers on “a group of actors and crew into the Australian outback, led by aspiring filmmaker and ego-maniac Jacob Lewis.” “Lewis’ plan is to make his own version of the 1999 hit, with dreams of becoming the next big Hollywood director. There is only one problem – he has no idea what he’s doing and neither does any of the cast or crew.” Alex Dona stars as the pompous Jacob along with James Mitry as Jacob’s pissed off brother.

Lionsgate’s new Studio L is gearing up to make waves in the digital world. Deadline is reporting that the studio announced today that their initial lineup includes three features this Spring and a series based on Eduardo Sanchez and Daniel Myrick’s The Blair Witch Project.

The film spawned a sequel in 2000 and another from Adam Wingard and Simon Barrett in 2016, simply titled Blair Witch. The big questions are, will the series continue the story or take a different path, and will it be found footage?

‘The Blair Witch’ To Haunt New TV Series

Horror is hotter than ever and TV networks are taking notice. Over the past couple of years, we’ve gotten a lot of new horror and supernatural series along with series adaptions. We can now add another to that list. During a recent podcast with Diminishing Returns, Eduardo Sanchez, the co-director of 1999’s found footage icon The Blair Witch Project, revealed that the Blair Witch is coming to the small screen. For us, it’s a very natural thing to go and say, ‘Hey, let’s do a frickin’ Blair Witch show.” He continued. “You can say it’s from the original creators and we can bring in a whole bunch of interesting directors to direct episodes.” Sanchez was asked if the new series would be a prequel, a sequel, or an anthology the director said that he could not discuss it. He also revealed that he no longer owns the rights to Blair Witch and that it was up to Lionsgate. Hopefully, we

The Best And Worst Horror Films Of 2016

THE BEST OF 2016 We saw a huge number of horror films released in 2016. There were a lot of great films, and a lot of bad ones too. Let’s focus on the good. Here’s our top 10 favorite horror films from 2016. To learn more about the film or to watch the trailer click the film’s highlighted title. 10. Pride & Prejudice & Zombies It was nice to see women in a horror film that can take care of themselves. While a fan of zombies, I think many people have grown tired of the slow, shambling, dumb undead, ‘PPZ’ gave us fast, intelligent zombies with a mission. 9. The Shallows Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra and penned by Anthony Jasinski, The Shallows stars Blake Lively as Nancy, a woman surfing alone on a secluded beach when she is attacked by a Great White and stranded just a short distance from shore. Though she is only 200 yards from her survival,
