Horror is a genre that thrives upon disruption and going against the grain. That being said, there’s a curious quality where fringe fascinations can progressively become mainstream, and what was once subversive is now the new normal. There was a time when a slasher film like Halloween was anarchic and groundbreaking, only for it to […]

Back then, the director would often partner with his close friend Marco Caro, an animator and comic-book artist who co-directed […]

2019’s The Long Walk (not to be confused with the brand new Stephen King movie of the same name) doesn’t receive nearly enough praise. Billed as a drama/horror, the Laos-made feature is a startlingly beautiful meditation on death and regret.

There’s nothing quite like RV horror. Inspired by an expanding national highway system and the proliferation of motor parks in the 1960s, this distinctive subgenre offers a unique blend of classic genre fare.

Musician Brian Eno once claimed that the limitations of a medium are exactly what people will miss about it once those limitations are gone. That’s probably why so many modern horror titles opt to embrace styles and mechanics that were once criticized for being cheap and obtuse (like low-poly graphics and tank controls). If you […]

While many works of Richard Matheson ended up on the small screen, the author was a giant when it came to genre. From post-apocalyptic monsters to gremlins on a plane, Matheson fathered a treasure trove of speculative stories that have since inspired countless other writers, including Stephen King. King said of the late Matheson: “[He] […]

If just its box office numbers had been considered, then The Stepfather would have remained a standalone movie. However, the 1987 cult flick ultimately found an audience after tanking in theaters; it went on to become a major success on both video and television.

For many cinephiles, November becomes Noirvember, a month dedicated to noir movies. Noir is often characterized by its fatalistic outlook, highly stylized imagery, down-on-their-luck and morally ambiguous protagonists, urban settings, shadows, corruption, narration, and of course, the femme fatale. All of these elements marry well with our favorite genre: horror. This week’s streaming picks blend noir […]

The desire to blend reality and fiction in film predates the Found Footage genre by literal decades, with classics like The Legend of Boggy Creek and even the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre dipping their toes into documentary-inspired filmmaking long before in-universe-cameras became popular.
