Rating: Not rated Stars: Lauren LaVera, David Howard Thornton, Elliott Fullam, Sarah Voigt, Kailey Hyman, Casey Hartnett, Charlie McElveen, Samantha Scaffidi, Chris Jericho, Amelie McLain Writer: Damien Leone Director: Damien Leone Distributor: Cinedigm (theatrical), Screambox (VOD), Bloody Disgusting (all media) Release Date: October 6, 2022 The original 2016 TERRIFIER is a brisk hour and twenty-five minutes. Its new sequel, TERRIFIER 2, is two hours and eighteen minutes long. Since most slasher horror films don’t run that long, this makes TERRIFIER 2 an immediate oddity. Both TERRIFIER and TERRIFIER 2 are the epitome of hardcore slashers. It’s understandable why neither one […]Read On »

Rating: Not rated Stars: Eva Green, Mark Strong, Chai Fonacier, Billie Gadson Writer: Garret Shanley Director: Lorcan Finnegan Distributor: RLJE Entertainment Release Date: November 4, 2022 (theatrical); November 22, 2022 (on demand and digital) NOCEBO is a remarkably good horror film that pulls off two difficult tasks. First, it successfully keeps us engrossed and in suspense as to exactly what will happen, even when we work out what’s happening and why. Second, it plays with our sympathies to a degree that is seldom achievable. When we meet Christine (Eva Green), she’s happy in everything. She’s in a loving marriage with […]Read On »

Then the two proceed to play cards. This turns out to be the basis for a study by Dr. Stevensen (Karen Gillan), a researcher who has, she says, developed a way to track souls into the afterlife. Her experiments bring her a stream of […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Stefanie Estes, Olivia Lucciardi, Dana Millican, Melissa Paulo, Eleanore Pienta, Cissy Ly, Jon Beavers, Jayden Leavitt, Shannon Mahoney, Rebekah Wiggins, Nina E. Jordan, Jovita Molina Writer: Beth de Araújo Director: Beth de Araújo Distributor: Momentum Pictures/Blumhouse/Shudder Release Date: November 4, 2022 For genuine, stomach-churning horror, Michael Myers, Pennywise the Clown, and the whole pantheon of the Cthulhu Mythos have nothing on the women of SOFT & QUIET. To be clear, kindergarten teacher Emily (Stefanie Estes) and her friends and acquaintances don’t have a single supernatural power between them. None of them are serial killers, part of a […]Read On »

GIRL AT THE WINDOW | ©2022 XYZ Films

Rating: R Stars: Radha Mitchell, Ella Newton, Vince Colosimo, Karis Oka, James Mackay, Andrew S. Gilbert, Sharon Johal, Lachie Millar, Jackson Gallagher Writers: Terrence Hammond and Nicolette Minster, story by Terrence Hammond Director: Mark Hartley Distributor: XYZ Films Release Date: November 4, 2022 Although there’s a maniac preying on young people in GIRL AT THE WINDOW, it’s not a slasher in the conventional sense. It’s more along the lines of a quasi-trapped young woman who knows there’s a serial killer next door, but can’t get anyone to believe her. The film begins strikingly, with adolescent Lian (Karis Oka). Lian is […]Read On »

LUCIFER: Co-executive producer and writer Mike Costa of the musical and animated episodes – Exclusive Interview – Part 7

LUCIFER_©_2020_Netflix

Moving from broadcast Fox to streamer Netflix, and knowing where the show was headed in terms of its conclusion allowed the makers of LUCIFER to experiment with form. This meant that in Season 5, we got “Bloody Celestial Karaoke Jam,” in which God (Dennis Haysbert) decides it would be enjoyable to have everyone express themselves in song and dance. God’s angelic sons Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and Amenadiel (DB Woodside) are the only ones who know this is happening – Lucifer is furious, especially as it makes him sing his innermost thoughts to his father. Then, in Season 6’s “Yabba Dabba […]Read On »

CHUCKY Season 2 Key Art | ©2022 Syfy

Whether you met killer doll Chucky (voiced in everything by Brad Dourif) in the CHILD’S PLAY films or their more playful but even gorier CHUCKY spinoffs, he was created by Don Mancini. Mancini crafted the premise of the original 1988 feature film CHILD’S PLAY, wrote its sequels and wrote/directed all of the CHUCKY spinoff movies. Now he’s brought the maniacal toy, possessed by the soul of a serial killer, to Syfy and USA, where it’s become a cult favorite. CHUCKY is in its second season on Syfy and USA Wednesday nights. It continues the plotline from the CHUCKY films, with […]Read On »

DEMONS AT DAWN movie poster | ©2022 Black Coppice Films Ltd.

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Ben Silver, Amber Doig-Thorne, Amanda Himsworth, Chris Sanders, Crystal J. Huang, Jimmy “The Bee” Bennett, Jon-Paul Gates, John Altman, Michael Della Pia Writer: Chris Sanders Director: Randy Kent Distributor: Black Coppice Films Ltd. Release Date: October 28, 2022 DEMONS AT DAWN bears a passing kinship with 2012’s THE KILL LIST. Both movies feature working-class English hit men who take on jobs that put them in some very strange – indeed, supernatural – situations. THE KILL LIST had terrifically naturalistic dialogue and performances, but let the audience get a little too far ahead of the plot. DEMONS […]Read On »

CALL JANE | ©2022 Roadside Attractions

Rating: R Stars: Elizabeth Banks, Sigourney Weaver, Chris Messina, Kate Mara, Wunmi Mosaku, Cory Michael Smith, Grace Edwards, John Magaro Writers: Hayley Schore & Roshan Sethi Director: Phyllis Nagy Distributor: Roadside Attractions Release Date: October 28, 2022 In CALL JANE, Jane turns out not to be a person. Instead, the Jane Collective is the group name of women who helped other women get abortion services from the mid-‘60s through 1972. We start out in Chicago in 1968, where protesters are getting loud outside the Democratic National Convention. Joy Griffin (Elizabeth Banks) is curious, but has more immediate concerns as wife, […]Read On »
