The trailer for Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice’s Creep 2 has arrived and it looks absolutely fantastic. It’s interesting to see how a similar set-up to the first movie (documentarian brought into the life of an unsettling oddball) is being used but the tone looks quite different, which makes sense given that we know the

Director Mike Flanagan and producer Trevor Macy have worked together on several projects in the past – including Oculus, Hush, Before I Wake, and Ouija: Origin Of Evil – but Gerald’s Game might be their most ambitious and challenging yet. It’s an adaptation of a Stephen King novel, in which a woman fights for survival
A UK trailer and poster have arrived for the upcoming Blumhouse horror Happy Death Day, and while we’re 98% sure that they’re identical to the US one, it definitely looks like a fun time and there’s confirmation of the UK release date: 20 October. The movie stars Jessica Rothe as a college student who’s murdered
Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan saw Natalie Portman’s character struggle to maintain her identity and sanity in her own manic pursuit of perfection. Similar concepts rear their head in mother! too; only it examines control being taken rather than being lost, creating something much more harrowing. Charismatic duo Jennifer Lawrence and Javier Bardem offer up powerhouse
A new poster has arrived for Christmas horror Better Watch Out, which stars Olivia DeJonge (The Visit) and Levi Miller (Pan) as a babysitter and her charge who find themselves in the middle of a home invasion during the festive season. “When you think the suburbs, you think safety, but this holiday night the suburbs are
It hasn’t even opened yet, but the most recent adaptation of Stephen King’s It is already set to have one of the most impressive opening weekends of the year. So it’s no surprise, then, that New Line Media have already had writer Gary Dauberman (Annabelle) sign a contract to come back and pen the sequel after he
While there was a conspicuous dearth of female filmmakers represented in FrightFest’s feature programme (of the 65 films that screened, only Natasha Kermani’s Imitation Girl, Tini Tüllmann’s Freddy/Eddy and Caroline Labrèche and Steeve Léonard’s Radius could boast female directors), the short films showcase went a considerable way to redressing this imbalance. Programmed by Shelagh Rowan-Legg, it
Still/Born begins with both a birth and a still birth, as young mother Mary (Christie Burke) delivers Adam, only to realise in horror that his identical twin Thomas is dead on arrival. Yet the mannered forward-slash punctuation that splits the film’s title (like in Marat/Sade, Face/Off and Frost/Nixon) also betokens other doubles and divisions within
“Alright, whoa baby! She’s gorgeous! Alright, that looks good, how much is it?” The speaker, in the opening scene of Imitation Girl, is a boy in his young teens (William Wakeland), diminished in static wideshot as he negotiates with two older men who have purchased a girlie magazine on his behalf. The boy’s words refer
The first time we see Samantha (Anja Savcic) in writer/director Kurtis David Harder’s InControl, she is facing a mirror. This follows a prologue in which pretty cheerleader Marissa (Sarah Troyer) tries desperately – and vainly – to phone Mark and Jenny, before, in her distraction, flipping her car spectacularly. The connection between these two sequences
“We meet only once every fifty years,” says the Duke (Vincent Regan) to Peter (Tony Curran) as a small group of people of different ages, genders and ethnicities (played by Charlie Cox, Freema Agyeman, Annette Crosby, Lukas Leong and Jordan Long) gathers around the table in a farmhouse at night to discuss boundaries, quotas and
The first trailer has arrived for Christopher Landon’s Blumhouse horror Happy Death Day (previously titled Half To Death), and it looks like a hell of a lot of fun. The movie is obviously going for a slasher take on Groundhog Day, and also looks a lot like the glorious Supernatural episode ‘Mystery Spot’ (“Do these
Following in the footsteps of Annabelle and The Nun, The Conjuring 2‘s creepy juddering sprite The Crooked Man will be spinning off into his own film. THR reports that Mike Van Waes has been brought on to write the film about the character that tormented the Hodgson family in 2016’s The Conjuring 2, and was inspired
Basket Case and Frankenhooker filmmaker and schlock cinema legend Frank Henenlotter’s controversial, deeply icky Brain Damage is presented in beautiful 1080p so we can all enjoy this giddy VHS cult favourite in striking high definition. For the uninitiated, Brain Damage fits very neatly into the Henenlotter back catalogue with a sweaty young man trying desperately
Phenomena gets a raw deal. It’s often held up as the first sign of Dario Argento losing his masterly touch, an overblown blend of greatest hits and daftness. However, while it shares several key plot elements with Suspiria and arguably never really squares its blend of creature feature, serial killer horror and fairytale, it’s a
Patrick Rea’s indie horror movie Enclosure is finally coming the UK after playing at FrightFest last year and we have some very exciting prizes for you to win! “Adventurous married couple Dana (Fiona Dourif, Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, When We Rise, Manhattan) and Charles (Kevin Ryan, Copper, Entourage) plan a trip into the wilderness
In The Belko Experiment, Tony Goldwyn plays Barry Norris, the man in charge of the Bogota office of the Belko corporation. His day gets a lot more complicated than he expected when the building is suddenly sealed and a voice comes over the intercom demanding that the men and women trapped inside start killing each
If horror movies are anything to go by, you had to be really careful about booking a place to stay back in 1960. This proto-Amicus spookfest, released in the same year as Psycho, features a hotel no less deadly than Bates Motel: the Raven’s Inn, in Whitewood, Massachusetts. Built on the very spot where, some
Don Coscarelli’s beloved Phantasm franchise is coming to beautiful Blu-ray courtesy of Arrow Video, and we have one copy of the incredible box-set to give away! Apart from looking incredibly pretty, the box-set contains the JJ Abrams-supervised 4K Bad Robot restoration of the original film and the latest movie in the franchise, Phantasm: Ravager. We’ll
