The Trailer For ‘Thriller’ Reminds Of The 70’s Horror We Love So Much

Blumhouse’s new horror flick Thriller gives off a major Prom Night meets Scream vibe in its first trailer, all while reminding us of the 70’s horror we love so much.

An introverted young man named Chauncey Page is sent to juvenile detention after he accidentally kills a member of a group of bullies after they play a cruel prank on him. Four years later he is back and he’s out for revenge. Jason Woods stars alongside Fences actor Mykelti Williamson and rapper turned actor RZA. Jessica Allain, Luke Tennie, Tequan Richmond, page Hurd, Chelsea Rendon, and Mitchell Edwards, Deadline reports. Divide/Conquer are producing the film written and directed by Dallas Jackson.

Top 5 Memorable Monsters In Videogames

With Halloween being the scariest time of the year, there’s no better time to reflect on some of the scariest monsters in videogames. After all, what’s good horror without something tall and murderous to scare the pants off you? The Slender Man (Slender: The Eight Pages) An abnormally skinny figure fitted in a tailored black suit, The Slender Man looks almost human. That is until you see his face, a smooth white dome, completely lacking in features. And even though he has no eyes, victims say they could feel Slender Man staring right through them. Starting off as a series of photo shopped images on the popular website 4chan.org The Slender Man reached peak popularity with the release of the video game “Slender: The Eight Pages.” Tasking the player with exploring a dilapidated camp site in search of the titular documents, “Slender” is made more difficult, and more terrifying, by the presence of the ever more aggressive Slender Man.

We Need To Talk About Michael

News of Jamie Lee Curtis’s return to the long-running Halloween franchise almost broke the Internet a few weeks ago. Some online posts were akin to The Beatles US arrival or the announcement of The Force Awakens. Blumhouse has taken the reigns and hopes to run with it. Part of this Cynema post asks, “to where?” There is nothing wrong with what Blumhouse is doing. Films get made, they get sequels, they get remakes. Hats off to any franchise that lasts forty years and remains relevant. However, there are a number Cynema-like elements to this. While everyone gushes about what this means to horror, I am going to look at just what this means to horror. Fan Reaction Details trickled in not long after the initial euphoria. Would this new film ignore the events after Carpenter’s original ’78 film? The news of Judy Greer joining the new film as Laurie Strode’s daughter sent a new wave of concern among online nerd-dom.
