After bursting onto the scene with writing/directorial debut The Strangers, it seemed a sure thing that the name Bryan Bertino would become one that we’d see attached to big screen horror films for many years to come. Six years later, Bertino’s long-awaited follow-up has finally arrived, though it’s likely that you haven’t even heard of …
There are a small handful of holiday horror movies that have become synonymous with the Christmas season. To All a Goodnight, despite being a pioneer of the sub-genre, isn’t one of them. Predating Silent Night, Deadly Night by four years, and coming out several months prior to Christmas Evil, To All a Goodnight is the …
For the first time in four years, this year’s Halloween season brought a Saw film to the big screen, though it was of course a re-release of the original rather than a sequel or reboot – a reboot likely isn’t far off, however. Yes, it has already been ten years since that guy from Princess …
