Mike Flanagan’s ‘Carrie’ [Season Review]: A Horror Classic Reimagined for a Brutal New Era (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“We were kids just trying to do our best.” Stephen King’s works are so prolific that they’re practically their own genre. Mike Flanagan’s take on Carrie, King’s first novel, will be the fourth version of this story (not to mention its forgotten sequel, The Rage: Carrie 2 ,and short-lived stage musical). If there is any King story that we should be able to close the book on, it’s Carrie, and yet Flanagan’s impeccable track record for not just King adaptations, but adaptations in general, makes th
Jason, The Conjuring & Final Destination: Six Flags Fright Fest 2026's Must-See Mazes & Attractions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Theme parks are such a beautiful form of escapism that manage to unite all walks of life in believing a common fantasy. It’s really special when that communal fantasy can receive a macabre makeover and populate its amusement-filled environment with killer clowns, renegade pirates, and overzealous zombies. Six Flags’ Fright Fest tradition has been going strong for nearly 35 years and it’s a must-attend annual event for many horror fans and theme park aficionados alike. New Jersey’s Six Flags Grea
'American Horror Story: 13' Review: Kills, Camp & Cathartic Cameos Kick Off a Bloody New Chapter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The number thirteen holds a tremendous amount of power. It’s a cataclysmic number with foreboding origins that go all the way back to the Last Supper, the Knights Templar, and Norse Mythology. It’s a beacon of bad luck and superstition, with such a stranglehold on the world that hotels regularly “skip” the 13th floor. It’s such a profound and unsettling number that there’s even a common phobia that surrounds the number – triskaidekaphobia. All this makes the number thirteen a surprisingly powerf
Zach Cregger’s 'Resident Evil' Deconstructs the Series’ Final Boss—and Rebuilds It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Resident Evil, the foundational survival horror gaming franchise, has had an especially interesting life as a film series. A lot of ground has been covered across seven movies and a single-season TV show, yet it still felt like a good Resident Evil film had yet to be cracked. Zach Cregger, an avid franchise fan and gamer, has not only created a near-flawless Resident Evil movie, but one of the greatest video game adaptations of all-time. Cregger’s film follows Bryan (Austin Abrams), a medical co
Taking a Walkabout Through Horror's Raw, Rebellious & Ruthless Ozploitation Subgenre (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Shudder’s Penny Lane is Dead is a loving throwback to the gritty, grindhouse movies of the ’70s and 80s. It begins with an innocent party to celebrate its titular character’s acceptance into university and concludes with a blood-soaked, corpse-filled catastrophe of criminal carnage. Penny Lane is Dead is more than just a brutal blast from the past. It marks the return of horror’s dormant “Ozploitation” genre that was at its peak during the ’70s and ’80s. Penny Lane is Dead is an overt tribute to
