Something pretty incredible happened on March 13th. Fittingly a Friday, the second of three Friday the 13ths this year marked the limited theatrical release of new indie darling It Follows, a horror film that was released by Radius-TWC into just four theaters – and only in New York and Los Angeles. It’s of course not …
It’s the year 2015, and if the idea of a young couple heading out into the woods and encountering something evil doesn’t at least make you think about rolling your eyes, then you probably haven’t seen all that many horror movies. But a good movie is a good movie, no matter how many times it’s …
We’ve reached the end of another week – thank god! – which means it’s time to once again take a look at the coolest, weirdest and/or most awesome images I’ve stumbled across on the internet this week. So let’s get right to it, shall we?! When I woke up this morning and checked my phone, …
The origin story of Clown is one that showcases the power of the internet, and the way it has afforded fans unprecedented opportunities in the world of filmmaking. To summarize, director Jon Watts made a same-named faux trailer a few years back, which caught the attention of Eli Roth. So in love with the idea …

My earliest horror memories are not of being scared by the movies, but rather having a whole lot of fun watching them. I fell in love with Freddy Krueger at a pretty young age, perhaps younger than one should be at the time of delving into the genre, and I can count on one hand …
It’s no secret that us fans are nostalgic for 80s slasher flicks, and countless films that have come along in the past decade have attempted to recreate the magic of that era – with varying results. There’s perhaps no film that accomplished the task better than Adam Green’s Hatchet – a movie that new release …
Something very unusual happened to me about 2 weeks ago. I paid the bills, made sure the kids had everything they needed, did the grocery shopping, and when I finished for the day and looked in my wallet there was a little bit of money left over! After regaining consciousness and picking myself up off …
The ‘mash-up’ film has become a bonafide sub-genre of horror in recent years, with movies like Sharktopus, Piranhaconda and the upcoming Zombeavers stitching together two different things to form silly slices of entertainment. You can now add the brand spankin’ new WolfCop to the mix, which has a similar target demographic in mind. Though the …
Welcome back fiends, I hope you all had a happy horror-filled weekend and feel refreshed and prepared for the week ahead. My ongoing quest to learn everything I can about the alternative movie art community and the main players within it has reached an exciting destination today (for me personally), as I have finally got …
