Horror News

And we're off! The first bit of programming for San Diego Comic-Con 2010 is up on the official site, and we've got a look at the horror-themed panels and events for both Preview Night (July 21st) and Thursday, July 22nd.

Another film playing exclusively at London's Film4 FrightFest is director Paul Andrew (The Cottage) Williams' latest terror tale, Cherry Tree Lane and to celebrate we've nailed down a new still. Or should we say chopped down?

The UK's most amazing horror film festival Film4 FrightFest has released what could very well be another one of the best horror line-ups we've seen ever for its latest show taking place from Thursday the 26th of August to Monday the 30th of August, brimming with films we've been salivating over Stateside!

Some stills from Jaume Balaguero's Sleep Tight (formerly Flatmate) have begun filtering across the web, and we've got a sneak peek that should satisfy your curiosity.

At first I was ranting and raving because I thought this was a remake of the classic Ron Howard flick Night Shift, about two dudes who turn a morgue into a prostitution ring. It's not, thankfully, and so now I can report the news without bias.

Lionsgate announced today an August 3rd Blu-ray/DVD release date for its upcoming thriller Open House so it won't be much longer before we get to see a couple of our favorite "True Blood" stars in a whole new light!

It's been a while since last we spoke about Joe Lynch's next feature film effort, Knights of Badassdom, but some unexpected casting news just sneaked its way online so we had to share!

Some nifty and arousing casting news has just come in! Porn sensation Michelle "Belladonna" Sinclair is set to make her mainstream feature film debut in John Wildman's latest horror flick Stripped, which is set to film in Dallas this fall.

We have always wanted a clip from someone's death, be it black or otherwise. I mean if only out of morbid curiosity. What's that? Oh, this is for the movie? Well ... okay then!

Even though principal photography just started in mid-April, a teaser trailer for the new indie horror flick 15 Till Midnight has hit online, and it's looking pretty damned interesting.

The werewolf subgenre has always been somewhat of a bastard stepchild in the world of horror, but what exactly is it about the cursed creatures that prevents so much fiction and filmmaking on the subject from being all that great? And, more importantly, will the upcoming Growl be one of the good ones?

The director of the splattery good gore-fest Black Sheep (review here), Jonathan King, has a new flick coming out from Lionsgate and Lightning Media called Under the Mountain, and though it's been given a PG-13 rating, we're still confident enough in King's filmmaking chops to insist that this one is worth a look!

At the risk of sounding like an old codger, they just don't make slasher movies like they used to. For whatever reason, most modern filmmakers don't seem to understand what made the slashers of the early 80s work so well, and the upcoming Spirit Camp appears to be no exception. Whenever I see words like "throwback" kicking around the plot description, I'm extra skeptical as it's typically another way of saying "we made a really forced and silly comedy". Will this one prove me wrong?

Hideo Nakata fans who are eagerly awaiting more on his latest film Chatroom can now have themselves a quick inside peek at the film thanks to three new clips that have come straight out of Cannes!

While the chemistry between True Blood stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer is apparently hot enough to keep people tuning in week-to-week for the HBO vampire drama, you have to wonder if said chemistry will translate into box office receipts for the Grindstone Entertainment Group, who are looking to give Open House a release this August.
