A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors is a treasure trove of kick-ass concepts, blending horror with supernatural fantasy twists and turns, humor, mystery, a monster, and a satisfying tinge of coming-of-age 1980s drama. Sure, many prefer the original Wes Craven film, but some still hold Chuck Russell’s Dream …

Initially released 35 years ago on January 27, 1987, Joseph Ruben’s The Stepfather centers on a character named Henry (Terry O’Quinn)… or wait, is he Jerry? Or maybe Bill? Well, whatever his name is, we know he swims away from one life to the next, looking for the perfect family …

A mortician/coroner is only human and sometimes needs to eat, even when they’re hard at work. After all, when you’re hungry, you’re hungry. Of course, there’s a time and a place to eat a meal or a snack. Is it gross to eat food in a morgue? Is it morally …

Anthology horror efforts come and go, with some being more memorable than others. However, not every one of them has been preserved forever. Such is the case with the CBS series, The Television Ghost, broadcast way back in the early 1930s! Due to its early, experimental nature, neither the audio …

However, today we’re looking back at Roald Dahl’s short-lived-yet-neat series, Way Out, from 1961. Wikipedia is not wrong when it says, “Dahl, his face projected in a disconcerting …

Directed by James Kapner and starring Eliza Coupe, Greg Finley, Chris Baker, Heather Matarazzo, and Eric Roberts, The Estate is a fun, deadly blend of dark comedy, rich a-holes, and murderous thrills. Something that makes the film stand out is its score, composed by Dan Dombrowsky. What went into the …

Even if Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer isn’t the absolute scariest movie ever, it’s certainly one of the bleakest. Because of that, director John McNaughton didn’t have the easiest time getting it released. Its original X-rating was partly due to its violence, of course, but the film very often …
