Head Count Offers Unexpected Summer Scares
Head Count is atmospheric, entertaining, and creepy as hell.

#Horror - Is It Worth the Fight?
A couple of weeks ago I sent a letter out to some of the biggest names in horror journalism including Fangoria and Rue Morgue hoping to get statements about the ongoing #horror controversy as it is. At the time of publishing this article, I have only received a response from Andrea Subissati of Rue Morgue. I am in no way attempting to disrespect or cause any form of schism or hard feelings towards anyone in the horror community, especially with the outlets I have reached out

Winterskin - A Scary Story Hidden Beneath its Own Marketing
Trapped inside with a crazed killer or alone in the wilderness with a monster? That’s the root conflict behind Winterskin, the new film from High Octane and Dark Temple Films. Young Billy Cavanagh (David Lenik) is on the hunt through the frozen tundra for something unnatural when he stumbles across a seemingly abandoned cabin and is shot by its current occupant, Mama Agnes (Rowena Bentley). Isolated by an almost impenetrable blanket of snow and forest, on the far flung edge o

HBO's Folklore Offers International Frights
Like many people, I subscribed to the HBO streaming service this month to watch the final season of Game of Thrones. Unlike a lot of those folks, however, I've been taking full advantage of this subscription to enjoy some of the other films and series available on the channel. While I've been riding the documentary train for most of this time, I've dove into some true gems of horror fiction including the HBO Asia original series Folklore. Folklore is exactly what it sounds li

Murder Puppets and Awkward Conversation in Francis Makes a Friend
You know things are going off the rails when a bizarre rabbit painting becomes and even more bizarre puppet and starts talking to you in the bathroom. Francis Makes a Friend is the story of an awkward, quiet computer programming major who is trying to break free of his awkwardness in order to make friends and have new experiences. He’s expecting food, games, and a good time. What he doesn’t realize is that he’s just been invited to the dinner party from hell. Francis Makes a

Room for Rent Offers Heartache, Horror with Lin Shaye
Room for Rent is maybe one of the most uncomfortably real horror movies I've seen in a while. Tackling some honest and often unspoken issues with elder care and human connection with the added flare of murderous obsession, the film will definitely make you reconsider not only the coldness of peer-to-peer experiences, but about the genuine interactions we have with strangers and friends alike. I mean, how well do you really know your neighbor or, for that matter, the person wh
