Announced last month as the sequel to their “horrorpunk” RPG Morbid: The Seven Acolytes, Merge Games and developer Still Running have released a new “Spotlight” trailer for Morbid: The Lords of Ire. Featuring Simo Talasranta, Writer/Composer/Sound Designer at Still Running, the trailer takes fans through the inspirations that led the developers to switch from The Seven

Bloober Team made waves when the original Layers of Fear came out in 2016. The psychological horror game was released right at the start of the Survival Horror renaissance and presented players with a deeply haunting tale about a painter driven to madness as he attempts to create his “masterpiece.” Wildly successful at the time,

Hot on the heels of a largely positive critical response (see our own Meagan Navarro’s glowing review here) and an opening weekend performance that has broken franchise records, Scream VI‘s cast and crew are no doubt riding a high right now. The “sequel to the requel” follows the surviving “Core Four” from 2022’s Scream—Sam (Melissa

There was a time when I personally believed that Resident Evil 4 never needed a remake. The original game that was released in 2005 has held up fantastically over the years and become such an influence on third-person action and horror games. Hell, we’re still seeing that influence in the series today as the exceptional

After forging a successful partnership on Ready or Not, director of photography Brett Jutkiewicz reunited with Radio Silence — the production collective of co-directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett and producer Chad Villella — on Scream (2022). He then followed the team from rural Woodsboro to the mean streets of New York City to shoot

If you’re feeling lucky, here are ten Irish horror movies you can stream today.

I’m going to come clean and admit that Dead Cells missed my radar entirely when it first released back in 2018. The “MetroidVania” style roguelike challenges players with zipping through an ever changing environment while progressively growing stronger with each run, facing challenging bosses along the way. Where Dead Cells stands out from the crowd

Warning: This article includes Scream VI spoilers. I love going to the theater. I mean, who doesn’t? The chance to see a great horror movie up on the biggest screen possible is one of the simplest pleasures in life. And now there’s a bevy of options to see your movie in such as RealD 3D,

Few titles have redefined the horror genre like Scream. Wes Craven’s original film premiered in 1996 and promptly unleashed a wave of teen meta-slashers that would dominate the genre for the remainder of the decade. From the filmmaking collective Radio Silence, Scream VI manages to strike the perfect balance of homage to the past while

The impact of George A. Romero’s Dead movies reached far and wide. After 1968’s Night of the Living Dead defined the modern zombie as we know it, 1978’s Dawn of the Dead kick-started zombie cinema in earnest. Not only did it herald a horde of undead movies domestically, the infection spread internationally — although the

With the Sam Raimi-produced 65 now playing in theaters, genre fans are getting something we’ve been craving for years – a big budget dinosaur thriller NOT part of the Jurassic Park franchise. The film’s premise of an astronaut crash landing on Earth during the age of the dinosaurs sounds exactly like something that would have

After creating the effects for over 40 iconic films, Bloody Disgusting has learned that Schaffer Studios is now crowd-funding a retro-style monster movie entirely of their own.

Despite the spooky séance setup in Brooklyn 45, writer/director Ted Geoghegan (We Are Still Here, Mohawk) is less interested in exploring a literal interpretation of ghosts. Instead, the filmmaker connects the ghosts of our past as a metaphor for present-day national turmoil and paranoia. The period set chamber piece gives precedence to fraught tension among friends over

From Freddy Krueger to Annie Wilkes, iconic villains with memorable backstories are a hallmark of popular horror media, but there’s more than one way to terrify audiences. For example, some horror flicks task viewers with unmasking the mysterious antagonist alongside our main characters in scare-centric whodunit mashups. And with the continued success of the Scream

After last October’s closed beta, you’re probably wondering just when Red Barrels was going to update us on The Outlast Trials. Well, not only will The Outlast Trials be headed to Early Access on Steam and the Epic Games Store., but it’ll be happening this Spring on May 18. In addition to the Early Access

As expected, the Radio Silence-directed Scream VI is another box office win for the franchise, the sixth installment surpassing the opening weekends of every other Scream movie. At this time it’s being reported that Scream VI scared up $44.5 million in theaters here in the United States this weekend, compared to last year’s $30 million

While Namco’s 1988 sidescroller Splatterhouse had its soundtrack released back in Japan, that was a long time ago, and it’s also out of print. Luckily, the folks at SPACELAB9 have teamed up with Bandai Namco to remedy that with a brand-new vinyl that you can pre-purchase now from SPACELAB9’s website, with an expected August 2023

Lulu Wilson tapped into a primal ferocity for her turn as the enraged teen taking down violent home intruders in 2020’s Becky. Its follow-up, The Wrath of Becky, reveals that the time passed between films hasn’t diminished the teen’s volatile rage in the slightest. Armed with John Wick-like motivation, Becky plunges into a new vengeful quest that provokes more

The late night talk show has been a television staple as far back as the late ‘40s, though its form would crystalize and surge in popularity in the ‘60s and ‘70s. The format relied on humor; it’s late at night, so why not relay the news or conduct interviews with biting wit for entertainment? Late Night

Welcome to the Ghostface Glossary, a guide to every horror reference and nod throughout the first five films of the Scream franchise. After a lot of pausing, rewinding, and zooming in, as well as researching, we’re catching all of the many horror-specific references Williamson, Craven, and Co. included in this beloved postmodern slasher franchise.

The penultimate episode of “The Last of Us” Season 1 featured an appearance from Troy Baker (who plays Joel in the games) in a new role, and now it’s Ashley Johnson‘s turn.

And like Rogue City, developer Hekate’s Ad Infinitum will see a September release after its original release date was set for April 20.

It’s hard to talk about the fourth entry in the long running Fatal Frame franchise in anything but a retrospective manner. Mask of the Lunar Eclipse was originally released for the Nintendo Wii nearly 15 years ago and was a collaboration between series creator Makoto Shibata and director/writer Goichi “Suda51” Suda (of No More Heroes
