‘Ghost Stories’ Will Haunt Blu-ray And DVD This September

This September the horror anthology Ghost Stories will haunt Blu-ray and DVD. This frightening flick hails from directors Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman and stars Martin Freeman ( Sherlock, Black Panther). Professor Goodman (Andy Nyman, Black Death) has devoted his life to exposing phony psychics and fraudulent supernatural claims. His skepticism is tested, however, when he receives a case file on three chilling and inexplicable incidents: a night watchman (Paul Whitehouse, Corpse Bride) haunted by disturbing visions as he patrols an abandoned asylum; an edgy young man (Alex Lawther, Freak Show) involved in a hellish car accident deep in the woods; and a wealthy former banker (Martin Freeman) visited by the spirit of his unborn child. Even more disturbing is that each of these macabre stories seems to have a sinister connection to Professor Goodman’s own life. Will they make a believer of him yet? Pick up your copy of Ghost Stories on Blu-ray or DVD on September 4, 2018,

Movie Review: What Still Remains (2018)

In a shitty future in which humanity has been nearly decimated by a disease that turns normal folk into bloodthirsty lunatics, Anna (Lulu Antariksa) lives with her brother and dying mother in a small cabin in the woods. The siblings make treks to the remains of a nearby city to scavenge for whatever they can find to survive…but they have to be careful, for if they stay too long the dwellers of the ruins, the Berserkers (who legend has it infected themselves with the aforementioned disease on purpose), will find them and be rather agitated…and by that I mean completely prone to murderizing anyone they see. Short story short, Anna’s brother buys it and her dying mother changes roles to become her dead mother leaving our plucky heroine alone in a hostile world. Soon a stranger, Peter (Colin O’Donoghue) arrives, and invites Anna to travel back with him to where he calls home. Reluctantly she agrees, as there is truly
