Stephen King and ‘FROM’ Producer Team Up for ‘The Institute’

2025-06-12

For those of us waiting for Stranger Things to return and IT: Welcome to Derry to start, maybe The Institute will tide us over? The series, based on the Stephen King book of the same name, starts streaming on MGM+ on July 13. It caught my eye because, in additionContinue Reading

Universal Horror Unleashed to Permanently Descend on Area15

2025-06-11

Thanks to Universal, it’s a big year for horror movie fans who love new experiences. In May, Epic Universe opened in Orlando, Florida, with the first-ever horror-centric “world” in a theme park, Dark Universe, where classic horror movie monsters come to life. In addition to the universe’s trademark Frankenstein ride,Continue Reading

It’s Official: ‘Sinners’ Fans Want More Choctaw Vampire Hunters

Sinners may not have been Fandango’s best pre-selling horror movie like The Monkey was earlier this year. (An honor that has now passed to The Black Phone 2.) But after it hit the big screen, praise for Sinners dominated my Bluesky feed. So much so that FOMO got the bestContinue Reading

Presence: A ghost story that needed a trigger warning?

2025-06-06
By: Courtney Mroch
On: June 6, 2025
In: Entertainment, Horror, Movies

When the teaser trailer for Presence was released, I wondered what kind of horror movie it would be. The brief synopsis brought to mind Poltergeist: “A family moves into a suburban house and becomes convinced they’re not alone.” I’d forgotten about wanting to see it until I spotted it in aContinue Reading

What’s up with all the cannibal horror movies anymore?

On: May 21, 2025
In: Entertainment, Horror, Movies

One of the most disturbing movies that I have ever watched was The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover. It wasn’t a horror movie, though. It’s classified as a “crime drama art film.” But it involved cooking and eating people, and that horrified me. I almost barfed duringContinue Reading

Is the Monkey part of Conjuring Universe

Why do people think The Monkey is part of the Conjuring universe?

In: Entertainment, Horror, Movies

You know the “People also ask” section that comes up when you Google something? Recently, a confusing result caught my attention: “Is The Monkey part of the Conjuring Universe?” I noticed it when I was researching info for a post about why it wasn’t surprising that The Monkey was Fandango’sContinue Reading

Bring Her Back: The Talk To Me Team’s Latest Offering

In: Entertainment, Horror, Movies

When I heard about Danny and Michael Philippou’s forthcoming A24 movie, Bring Her Back, I dropped everything to watch the teaser. What fresh horror had the Talk To Me directors concocted for us now? Mostly, I wanted to get ahead of the curve this time and not make the sameContinue Reading

When it comes to horror movie ticket sales, The Monkey has dominated Fandango’s best pre-seller list. So far. For good reason. If you look up “most anticipated horror movies of 2025,” you’ll find lists that name a variety of titles. In addition to The Monkey, a couple of movies makeContinue Reading

“When I was a kid, I was afraid of, well…everything,” Jeremy Haun says in the teaser trailer for his new horror-themed video podcast series, “Curious Haunts.” He lists some of the things that scared him, and then adds, “But I was also curious.” And now he’s setting out to exploreContinue Reading

Why It’s Not Surprising The Monkey Is Fandango’s Best Pre-Seller

2025-02-19
By: Courtney Mroch
On: February 19, 2025
In: Entertainment, Horror, Movies

It’s really not all that surprising that Neon’s upcoming horror film, The Monkey, is Fandango’s best horror ticket pre-seller of 2025. So far. Will it hold the title for the whole year, though? Possibly. It’s among the most highly anticipated horror movies coming out this year for good reason. Namely, theContinue Reading

The Two Questions The Woman in the Yard Doesn’t Ask

2025-01-14

In: Entertainment, Horror, Movies

The poster for The Woman in the Yard is quite eye-catching, don’t you think? Not to mention creepy. I instantly wanted to know why this woman draped in black from head to toe was sitting in a yard. (Well, to me, it looks more like a field, but whatever.) Anyway,Continue Reading

Once the California wildfires are contained, I’m sure we’ll hear even more harrowing and heartbreaking stories of loss and survival. I was surprised that several outlets have already compiled lists of landmarks damaged or destroyed in the fires. One in particular sent a shiver down my spine. NBC News reported thatContinue Reading
