One of the freshest, most interesting voices on the genre scene right now is Ana Lily Amirpour, who got her start with the Iranian vampire-western A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night before heading into a post-apocalyptic setting for the Mad Max-style The Bad Batch. Next from Amirpour will be the fantasy adventure Blood Moon. […]
Up until this point, we’ve never gotten a good look at the combat component in DONTNOD’s Vampyr. We’ve had the story trailer, several developer diaries that danced around the topic, but nothing to be seen. Well, with the game being released in June (June 5th, to be exact), that all changes in the latest gameplay […]
One of the things we most enjoy about horror are the insanely memorable death scenes. Horror often introduces new ways to die that we hadn’t yet thought of, from chest bursting baby aliens in Alien to group bisection by wire in Ghost Ship, it’s often easier to remember the deaths more than the characters.

Sony announced today that they’re bringing a couple of horror throwbacks to its PlayStation Now service.

Image Source: AP Images/Invision Now THIS is a powerhouse pair-up! THR reports today that Alexandre Aja (High Tension, The Hills Have Eyes) will direct and Sam Raimi (Evil Dead, Drag Me to Hell) will produce Crawl for Paramount, a low-budget, self-contained original horror film that’s already in pre-production. “The script centers on a young woman who, […]
It’s incredibly hard to find an adaptation that actually improves upon its source material rather than diluting it in an attempt to reach another audience. Examples of stories that managed to thrive in another medium might include David Fincher’s Fight Club, Spawn: The Animated Series and even Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining (I adore Stephen King, […]
Very interesting news just broke tonight, as Deadline reports that John Woo and Universal Pictures are joining forces for a new take on Woo’s 1989 action film The Killer, which Woo himself will be returning to direct.
