Immediately upon loading Chop Goblins, the latest game from Dusk developer David Szymanski, you’re greeted with title screen music that sounds like a dark carnival crossed with a Saturday morning cartoon, perfectly setting the stage for the wackiness you’re about to experience. Over the next five levels, you’ll chase the titular creatures as they cause […]

Gazing down from a rickety platform, about 7 or 8 stories high, our field of vision is restricted by a thick fog embankment. All that we can really make out in these obfuscating weather conditions is the surrounding treeline and a few nearby sheds that offer very little in the way of protection. To make […]

Be it sadness or happiness, Christmas tends to bring out intense emotions. What’s often seen as a joyous time for some people can be the loneliest day of the year for others. In the movie The Apology, Darlene Hagen hasn’t had a happy Christmas since she experienced every parent’s worst nightmare. This one particular holiday […]

Adult Swim’s first feature-length horror film is the holiday gift that keeps on giving and a standout genre experiment. “It’s so hard to surprise people these days…Everybody’s seen everything.” It’s two minutes before Adult Swim’s holiday yule log presentation finally shows its hand, breaks free of its defining formula, and begins to first hint that […]

Supermassive Games has positioned itself as the face of choice-based survival-horror. Since its 2015 smash-hit, Until Dawn, the studio has teetered the line of triumphs and mishaps with its Dark Pictures Anthology, as well as Until Dawn’s spiritual successor, The Quarry. The games are essentially horror movies where you’re placed at the helm of deciding […]

Zac Locke’s directorial debut is the latest horror movie to show how gentle waves can hide an unseen evil. In place of ominous oceans and sinister seas, this story focuses on a less visited destination in aquatic horror. Yet as choppy as the narrative waters ultimately become in #Float, the events give rise to a […]

With the unprecedented success of Terrifier 2, Art the Clown cemented his place as a horror icon of the modern age. While the Terrifier franchise has become synonymous with Halloween, Art actor David Howard Thornton is slashing into Christmas with The Mean One, an unauthorized horror parody of Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

I liked The Callisto Protocol a little more on my second time through it. My first run was frustrating, with a lot of sudden violence and cheap deaths. Even on its medium setting, Callisto is unforgiving, and one missed dodge or block at the wrong time can get you decapitated, or dismembered, or impaled, or […]

Netflix’s Norwegian Kaiju feature, Troll, might draw easy comparisons to 2010’s Trollhunter for its Scandinavian roots and mythology, but it opts to adhere closer to Legendary Pictures’ MonsterVerse in plotting. While light on narrative, it’s when Cold Prey director Roar Uthaug embraces its monster that Troll reveals its magic. A prologue sees a father tell his young daughter, Nora, of legendary trolls turned […]

Bloody Disgusting’s Violent Night review is spoiler-free. This holiday season brings a new answer to the tired debate over Die Hard: the ultra-violent yet sugar plum sweet Violent Night. Director Tommy Wirkola (Dead Snow) infuses his gore-soaked sense of humor into an amalgamation of familiar holiday fare, ushering a new crowd-pleasing Christmas-set actioner eager to splatter the snow red.

You know what rules? Vampires. You know what else rules? Westerns. Both of them are surprisingly under-utilized in games. Sure you have stuff like Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines or Red Dead Redemption but you never see Vampires or Cowboys pop up in games too often. Let alone together. Until now. Enter Evil West, the […]

Season Two of Don Mancini’s “Chucky” kicked off on Halloween and fittingly takes a bow over Christmas. The holiday-themed finale jumps ahead, picking up some time after the last episode’s wild events to bring season’s beatings and wrap up loose ends. “Chucky Actually” may not get quite as explosive as the penultimate episode, but it does pack in […]

I have a massive love/hate relationship with the Dying Light franchise. I’m intrigued by the concept of a safe-day, dangerous-night zombie game where the focus is to survive using what you find and how you traverse the world. I also respect the amount of support the games receive (the first Dying Light received support all […]

It’s over. Over a decade after its initial premiere in October 2010, AMCs “The Walking Dead” has reached its ultimate conclusion. “Rest In Peace” marked not only the last episode of the mega-sized 11th season, but the final episode of the entire flagship series. While there are a plethora of spin-offs featuring fan-favorite characters on […]

Netflix’s “Wednesday” singles out the most morose member of the altogether ooky Addams Family to give its eponymous character a coming-of-age story centered around a murder mystery. Despite a compelling portrayal of the macabre teen by Jenna Ortega, a whodunnit with sharp teeth, and executive producer Tim Burton helming half of the episodes, “Wednesday” never gets mysterious or […]
