It's
August!
Summer is fading fast, but before we get to the
Fall, and and all of the creepy wonders that it will no doubt bring with it, we've still got plenty of
Movies and TV Shows to help make the
Summer nights a bit creepier... and to help us get all geared-up for the upcoming
Halloween Season.
Below, we've listed 10 or so of the best
Movies & TV Shows that are seeing
Theatrical,
Blu-ray & DVD,
VOD, or
TV releases this
August; they're the biggest and (potentially) best of them, and at the very least, they are the ones that we're most excited to check out.

Movie or TV Show, and be sure to click the links in the paragraph above to visit our full
Release Dates Pages.

The biggest thing happening in
August, at least
Horror-wise, is the premiere of
Fear the Walking Dead. As popular as
The Walking Dead is, a spin-off series is a no-brainer, and the fact that it's set at the very beginning of
Zombie Apocalypse has us all sorts of excited. We're really curious to see how they handle this story, from a new perspective.
We're hoping that
Kim Dickens and crew knock this one out of the park.

On the
Blu-ray front, this
Limited Edition Blu-ray of the
The Walking Dead's 5th Season seems to be the way to go, if you're going to be adding Season 5 to your collection, of course. It may even be the coolest
Special Edition packaging that they've done yet for the series. We're already trying to figure out where we're going to display ours...
The price will drop to around
$60-70 or so when it's released, so for now, just add it to your cart and wait.

We loved the first
Sinister, and we're hoping that this sequel will be just about as good. It's really the only "Big"
Horror flick hitting
Theaters in
Wide Release this
August, so let's hope that it measures up.
Ciaran Foy (the guy who directed
Citadel) is directing
Sinister 2, so let's hope that it's just as atmospheric.

| AUGUST 28TH |
The trailer for
Regression looks pretty intense and disturbing, and we're all for any chance to see
Emma Watson in a
Genre project, so we'll definitely be catching this one when it's released.
 |
| AUGUST 7TH |
The Gift has got a top-notch cast, and it looks like a solid
Thriller, so we'll probably line up to see it before we spend our money on
Fantastic Four, which comes out the same weekend.
Jason Bateman and
Joel Edgerton have seldom let us down before, so we're expecting this one to deliver. Like the guy in that poster is delivering that gift.

The first season of
From Dusk Till Dawn was entertaining enough, and with names like
Danny Trejo,
Esai Morales,
Jeff Fahey,
Briana Evigan, and...
Demi Lovato (?) joining the cast, it should be even better. Or at least as good.

| AUGUST 7TH |
Ugh... this one doesn't look all that hot to us, but we love
Kate Mara and
Michael B. Jordan, and
Miles Teller was great in
Whiplash, so maybe we'll swallow or distaste and give it a go.
Or maybe we'll just wait until it hits
VOD.
August is set to be a very busy month on the
VOD front, and so we've listed six of the best movies coming to streaming platforms over the next 30 days, so that you know what to keep an eye out for.
We've seen:
Furious 7, which was a ton of silly fun;
Mad Max: Fury Road, which kicked all sorts of ass; and
Cub, which was suitably creepy and disturbing.
The Boy looks phenomenal.
Downer's Grove and
Final Girl could go either way.
