Obsession. Murder. Cannibalism. These are the corner stones of the story behind Lunch Ladies, the hilarious horror-comedy gem of the Women in Horror Film Festival. A duo of Johnny Depp obsessed school cafeteria workers win a contest based on a hamburger creation and get a chance to meet their idol in L.A. It's all a part of their master plan to become the personal chefs of the Hollywood icon. Their initial reaction is to celebrate, quit their jobs, and tell the ungrateful sta

"Tangled in the web of dreams and reality, a homicide detective must fight against the evil spirit from an old Japanese urban legend to win the heart of the woman he loves." This is the log line for the new horror short film Beautiful which will be playing at the Culver City Film Festival in December. Co-Written and Directed by Petra Deeter, the story is an original take on the Japanese legend of Kuchisake-onna: the Slit Mouthed Woman. The character and mythology of this part

I love that old story about the scorpion and the fox. The scorpion convinces a fox to allow it to ride on its back and together cross a river. Halfway across the river, though, the scorpion stings the fox condemning them both to drown. When asking why he'd do this, the scorpion says "because it's my nature." It's an ancient and universally constant tale of caution and choice. We feel a need to connect, to bond and help. Jax in Love is a modern tale of caution, of the percepti

Netflix has become a powerhouse in the entertainment industry since it beagn pioneering streaming video in the late 2000's. With success has come controversy, much of which has been contrived by executives to increase presence in the media and to boost viewership.

That said, the internet has been abuzz over the last week or so with the latest "controversy" surrounding the media giant, a law

Everyone loves a good mystery. It’s practically ingrained in our DNA. Whether it’s a tale of global espionage or just wondering who it is that stole your lunch from the break room fridge the search for answers to the unknown compels us like nothing else. That’s what makes Video Palace, the first original podcast from Shudder, so incredible. The ten part series available to binge on the streaming service or through your favorite podcast app is a mystery in the mockumentary/fou

Stan Lee has died at the age of 95. It's sort of a shocking thing to write. Not that a man of that advanced age has passed but rather such a mythical figure has left us. I mean just who thinks of such a talented mind, such a powerful and long lasting presence in the pop culture landscape fading away into the darkness? It's bittersweet. Few if any can remember a time when the Marvel Comics creations of Stan Lee and his compatriots weren't there to inspire us. Fewer still may r

Crisis actors. Reptilian overlords. Secret societies controlling and manipulating every aspect of our daily lives. These are just a few of the paranoid conspiracy theories that plague the internet and can easily take you into some dark, terrifying places on YouTube. They’re also the fodder for Zenescope’s latest horror-mystery comic, Conspiracy: The Illuminati. Here at 52 Weeks of Horror we recently got our hands on issue one of this incredible new series and it was nothing s

In June I had the opportunity to interview Decay Mag founder and head Ken Artuz. We talked about horror journalism, changes in the genre, and building a brand that people recognized and trusted within the community. This was around the same time that Fangoria was announcing its return so the topics seemed beyond relevant. Unfortunately, a series of mistakes on my part kept the interview from making it to print. Fast forward to October and the Women in Horror Film Festival and
