    Every Horror Fan Needs to Watch ‘Don’t Look Now’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Pop quiz: What do Sophie Thatcher and writer/director Dave Boyle have in common? If you’ve been following Dread Central on social media over the past few months, then you probably know that I sat down with both of them to talk about their respective projects, Her Private Hell and Never After Dark. Despite the two films being vastly different–one is a genre-bending, giallo-tinged neo-noir; the other, an atmospheric ghost story with shades of 2000s J-horror–they share a surprising influence: Nicol

    'Fall 2: Deadpoint' Review: An Exhausting Climb to Nowhere (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Summer 2022 was a strange time. Restaurants and bars were no longer checking for proof of vaccination, and masks in public spaces were (mostly) optional.

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Ask any horror fan, and they’ll tell you that they first fell in love with the genre after watching a film they weren’t supposed to as a kid. They had rummaged through their older brother’s DVD collection, stayed up late to watch something on TV without their parents knowing, or accidentally stumbled upon a movie while searching for something else, mindlessly clicking through the blue-and-white TV guide until they saw a title that caught their attention. Jane Schoenbrun’s sexy slasher satire Tee

    8 Must-Watch Horror Movies About Cults to Add to Your Watchlist This Summer (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    What is it about the summer that makes me want to watch horror movies about cults, despite the fact that not every cult movie takes place in the summer?
