2023 was a good year for villains.

But […]

2023 was a banner year for horror films from across the globe, which deserve just as much praise and attention as any domestic genre triumph. In a year that’s had its share of ups and downs at the box office, horror continues to be a top performer and one of the most consistent sources of […]

As another year of horror ends, we reflect on the best this genre had to offer. Usually, that means focusing on those movies that drew the most attention.

The best way I can describe the past year is as a year of trend shifts in the film zeitgeist.

Much like movies, television, and streaming platforms, it’s been a densely packed year for horror books as well. If the selection of horror movies available this year feels overwhelming, it pales in comparison to the horror renaissance that the book world offered this year.

To say it’s been a strange, turbulent year might be a bit of an understatement. Historically, 2023 marks the year of the dual strikes by WGA and SAG-AFTRA, the first time in over 60 years that Hollywood writers and actors went on strike at the same time.
