With brutal cannibal love story Trouble Every Day, Claire Denis helped usher in a wave of French horror at the turn of the century known as New French Extremity.

Yet, if you take the idea and really hone in on the implications, it’s terrifying. Something you’ve just stumbled across, that you […]

From homages to German expressionism in Living Dead Girl to The Munsters references in Dragula (not to mention the band name White Zombie, itself borrowed from the homonymous 1933 classic), it was quite clear that the man was a spooky cinephile long before he […]

It’s hard to believe that next year, The Chronicles of Riddick franchise will have turned twenty. The franchise that helped to cement Vin Diesel as an action star may be quiet now, but it also successfully jumped into other media, namely video games. And unlike most video game tie-ins to film/television, the two games that […]

In the vein of A Quiet Place and Bird Box, Netflix’s John R. Leonetti-directed The Silence tells the story of a family attempting to survive a world terrorized by a deadly, primeval species who hunt only with their acute hearing.
