Curry Barker’s Obsession takes a simple concept and transforms it into an enjoyably disturbing supernatural horror story that knows exactly what it wants to be. After breaking the mysterious “One Wish Willow” to win his crush’s heart, a hopeless romantic finds himself getting exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price. […]
Reimagining one of horror’s most iconic monsters is never an easy task, but Lee Cronin takes a bold and surprisingly effective swing with The Mummy (2026). Known for Evil Dead Rise (2023), Cronin moves away from the traditional ancient Egyptian mythology and instead grounds the horror in something far more unsettling: a demonic possession. This version of the Mummy isn’t […]
Blending action, horror, and dark comedy into one chaotic experience, They Will Kill You delivers exactly what it promises: a fun, violent, and stylish ride that doesn’t try to reinvent the genre, but knows how to entertain within it. Directed by Kirill Sokolov, the film leans heavily into its over-the-top premise and embraces the absurdity of its world from the […]
Following the success of Ready or Not (2019), the sequel Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) arrives with bigger ambitions, more blood, and an even more chaotic premise. Directed once again by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, the film reunites audiences with Samara Weaving as Grace, picking up immediately after the explosive events of the first movie. After […]
In recent years, horror has often leaned heavily into themes like grief, trauma, and faith, sometimes to the point where they begin to feel repetitive. Undertone (2026), the debut feature from Canadian filmmaker Ian Tuason, manages to revisit these familiar ideas while presenting them through a fresh and surprisingly effective approach. Distributed by A24 in the United States, the film […]
The Bride! (2026), written and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal, is a bold and eccentric reimagining of the classic monster mythology inspired by the 1935 film Bride of Frankenstein, itself based on Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. Starring Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale alongside Peter Sarsgaard, Annette Bening, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Penélope Cruz, the film premiered at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square […]
Scream 7 had big shoes to fill. Directed by Kevin Williamson and marking the return of Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott, this installment had all the ingredients to deliver a definitive, powerful conclusion. Instead, what we get is an entertaining but ultimately unremarkable sequel that leans heavily on nostalgia without carving out anything truly new. When a new Ghostface killer […]
Video game adaptations are always a gamble, especially when the source material relies heavily on atmosphere, player agency, and psychological immersion rather than a traditional narrative. The Mortuary Assistant (2026), directed by Jeremiah Kipp and based on the 2022 horror game by DarkStone Digital, approaches that challenge with surprising restraint. While it doesn’t fully escape the pitfalls of adaptation, it […]
The Strangers: Chapter 3 (2026) marks the fifth entry in The Strangers franchise and the final chapter of the new trilogy directed by Renny Harlin. Starring Madelaine Petsch, Gabriel Basso, Ema Horvath, and Richard Brake, the film arrives with the promise of a climactic showdown but ultimately delivers a frustrating and underwhelming conclusion to an already uneven trilogy. Tethered by […]
Dracula: A Love Tale (2026) is yet another reimagining of Bram Stoker’s immortal vampire, but this time Luc Besson trades gothic terror for tragic romance. Written and directed by Besson, the film reframes Dracula less as a monster and more as a cursed lover, condemned to eternity after losing the one person who gave his life meaning. The result is […]
