Back in August, it was revealed that Ice Pick Lodge’s Pathologic 2 was struggling in sales, and as a result, the team has had to pivot its scope. Part of that was offering “small free*” DLC content, one of which is The Marble Nest, which is out next week on October 28. The asterisk, it […]
Twenty years ago, on October 9, 1999, a Disney Channel Original Movie premiered on television that instilled nightmares for a generation. If you were a kid growing up in the ‘90s, then there’s a high probability this movie and its nightmarish imagery embedded itself into your skull and never left. For many, Don’t Look Under […]
In Capcom’s recent financial report, the Japanese giant was eager to celebrate the success stories of Resident Evil 2 Remake, Monster Hunter World, and Devil May Cry 5, but it also looked to the future by promising to keep on utilizing these present franchises, and also resurrect some of its past. Capcom wants to revive […]
Writer/Director Mike Flanagan has a pretty healthy relationship with Netflix, at least in terms of delivering quality horror. Last October’s The Haunting of Hill House series chilled viewers to their core. The year before that Flanagan adapted what was previously considered unadaptable; Stephen King’s Gerald’s Game. This Wild Card Sunday we’re going back to his […]
Unless your name is Resident Evil, there’s not a lot too cheer these days as a Japanese horror franchise. The perspective-swapping Siren has seemingly been left behind, Silent Hill has died a quiet death by pachinko, and the ghost-snapping Fatal Frame hasn’t had a prominent entry in years. At least there may still be a […]
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. That alone would give merit to Hatchet II’s selection as our Franchise Friday pick of the week. But really, it’s because this sequel is so […]
During today’s announcement about the details of the rather good MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV‘s upcoming 5.1 patch, titled ‘Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty’, it was revealed that the NieR Automata collaboration will be launching alongside it on Tuesday, October 29. The collaboration had previously been announced to be a part of this post-Shadowbringers update, […]
This year has been surprisingly Critters-heavy, kicking off with Shudder’s series “Critters: A New Binge” back in March. That 8-episode return of the franchise, if you’re asking me, was quite awful, but I actually had a lot of fun with the brand new movie that came along shortly thereafter: Critters Attack!, which went straight to […]
