Courtesy of Netflix Stranger Things 5 is arguably the most uneven the Netflix megahit has ever looked, because, like other epic shows before it, it simply has too much to accomplish in too short a time. The show’s ever-expanding cast and ever-raising stakes in previous seasons made sure of that. There’s just so much there […]
I usually do my best to steer clear of the rudders of the rumor mills. That’s how you let yourself get swept up in the torrent of hype that inevitably leads to the dark side. But I tend to make an exception when the subject of the rumors is Netflix. Hell, Netflix puts out 12 […]
Mike Flanagan, master of emotional horror, is back at it again with his new Netflix series, Midnight Mass. Information about the show has been rather cryptic. Both Flanagan and Netflix teased the show with vague messages about miracles and coming home. Now, the latest trailer gives us more insight into the people of Crockett Island […]
Courtesy of Netflix We’ve reached a point with Stranger Things where, at least for current viewers, you’re either in or you’re out.

But, perhaps 2021’s best genre show of them all is Yellowjackets. It may only be on its fifth episode, but this […]
By the end of season three, Tales from the Crypt was unstoppable. The Cryptkeeper was fast becoming a pop culture mainstay just enough to still be cool and not overexposed, and ratings were solid. The constant pumping of celebrity blood into the show kept even those who otherwise had no interest in horror talking around […]
Although the show has been on our screen since 2010 (and the comic has been around for even longer), the actual cause of the zombie outbreak in the world of The Walking Dead has been kept secret, leading to endless speculation and fan theories. But we can finally but all those theories to rest, because […]
Sundays at San Diego Comic-Con are synonymous with one thing for horror fans: The CW’s long-running Supernatural, which is about to embark on its 14th season. Per usual, they brought a kick-ass sizzle reel to Hall H, and it’s powered by Motörhead’s God Was Never on Your Side. After the ups and downs the Winchester […]
