In 1993, we saw perhaps the most reflective work that’s ever been adapted from a Stephen King novel. The Dark Half went from the page to the screen, and the loyal fans of the publishing powerhouse got to peruse the daily life of King, as a writer with demons in his closet. …

I had no idea what I was diving into with Pete Oh’s Jethica but I sure am happy I tested these waters. Uniquely weaving genres and conjuring up a hilarious—and at times—heartwarming haunting, this story plucked heartstrings I didn’t intend to have exercised, let alone with a film running barely …

Slashers like Michael Myers in Halloween and demonic entities found in films like The Conjuring certainly instill fear in audiences.
