Saturday is Family Fun day during our 31 Days of Halloween celebration, and this entry is an absolute delight. A PG-13 horror comedy that serves as a perfect introductory course to the slasher, deconstructed tropes and all, The Final Girls also offers up a slew of endlessly likable characters. Characters that bring the emotion as […]
After several setbacks, including a legal battle with its former publisher, developer Protocol Games is finally releasing its fixed-camera psychological horror game Song of Horror. On October 31, the first two episodes of the game will be released on Steam, with the rest coming shortly after. Song of Horror is an eye-catching mix of ideas. […]
This decade has brought not one, but three entries in Adam Green’s ultra-gory slasher series. Starting with Hatchet II, which kicked off the decade with its October 1, 2010 release.

The developer announced the decision via Twitter earlier today, while also posting more information on their blog. “For […]
For those who are interested in the runtimes of upcoming movies, we’ve learned this week that Mike Flanagan‘s Doctor Sleep, an adaptation of Stephen King’s sequel to The Shining that also serves as a sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, will be joining this year’s IT: Chapter Two on the list of longest feature film […]
