Nothing in the way of spoilers, so read with confidence I have been watching the second season of “The Walking Dead,” and beside certain odd beats (Why was the smell of the dead on the highway a non-issue, while a rotting corpse in a tent makes everyone gag? These are some of the same people […]
If John Carpenter’s version of “The Thing” had not existed, then Matthijs van Heijningen, Jr’s film would have been much better received because, while it isn’t bad, it is not nearly as effective as Carpenter’s film
It’s Not Human. Yet. The prequel to John Carpenter’s eponymously-named film (with potentially the coolest tagline in years) is coming out October 14th; though if you can’t wait 6 days, I may have found something to hold you over till then. Dark Horse Comics has issued a free three-issue digital comic based upon the mythology of […]
Here’s the trailer for “Paranormal Activity 3,” which I would like to think is going to concentrate on being scary and atmospheric, unlike the prior entry.
This new poster from the upcoming sequel to 2007’s “Ghost Rider” is cool because it it hints at what fans of the character have known all along, which is that he isn’t a “good guy” in the traditional sense (which the flaming skull and hellfire thing should have made readily apparent).

Just in case the first trailer for Troy Nixey’s remake of “Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark” didn’t get your blood racing, here’s the red band trailer, where all sorts of nastiness is hinted at. Considering all the sinister goings on at Blackwood Manor, shouldn’t this film be called “You Will Definitely Be Afraid Of […]
Edited 8/23 622 Here’s the latest trailer for “Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark,” directed by Troy Nixey, and opening this Friday. As happy as I am to see a new horror film that seems to remember that the genre isn’t always how gorily you can dispose of someone, but can occasionally rise above such […]
The trailer for Neveldine/Taylor’s “Ghost Rider: Sprit of Vengence” is out, and if I do say so it looks pretty cool and builds up some serious good will for those of us that thought that the first film was pretty, and little else. This time around, it feels more geared toward horror, which makes sense […]
