Trailer: Halloween (2018)

"Laurie Strode comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago."

"You don't believe in the boogeyman?
"No."
"You Should."

To think that David Gordon Green and Danny McBride -The creative team behind the brilliant Eastbound & Down- might just be the ones to give us the Halloween sequel that we've always yearned for is kinda crazy, but after watching this trailer, I think they just may have nailed it.

This new Halloween film basically erases everything that happened in every sequel after the original movie disappear, making it a true bookend sequel to the Carpenter classic.

Jamie Lee is back as Laurie, and she looks like she's ready to fight; John Carpenter is producing; and we even get Nick Castle back as The Shape...

This is the movie that we'll be dying to see above all others until it hit screens in October.

Get hype.


Halloween opens in theaters everywhere on October 19th.

SXSW Trailer: Hereditary (2018)

"When Ellen, the matriarch of the Graham family, passes away, her daughter's family begins to unravel cryptic and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry. The more they discover, the more they find themselves trying to outrun the sinister fate they seem to have inherited as it slowly destroys everything they know. Making his feature debut, writer-director Ari Aster unleashes a nightmare vision of a domestic breakdown that exhibits the craft and precision of a nascent auteur, transforming a familial tragedy into something ominous and deeply disquieting, and pushing the horror movie into chilling new terrain with its shattering portrait of heritage gone to hell."

We're not exactly sure what to make of Hereditary, but if this trailer is any indication, it's going to be equal parts odd, creepy, and possibly even terrifying. It garnered rave reviews at Sundance, where critics called it "This year's scariest Horror movie" which in years past was bestowed upon movies like The Witch and It Follows, which could be a blessing or a curse, depending.

Either way, it's one that we'll definitely be checking out.


Hereditary hits theaters on June 8th.

SXSW Trailer: Ghost Stories (2018)

"Arch skeptic Professor Phillip Goodman embarks upon a terror-filled quest when he stumbles across a long-lost file containing details of three cases of inexplicable 'hauntings'."

We've been waiting for this one for a while now, and it looks like the wait will have been worth it. It's hard to find a truly scary ghost story these days, but if this trailer for Ghost Stories is any indication of the final product (which it kinda has to be, by definition), then we may just be in for a creepy good time.


Ghost Stories is playing now at SXSW.

SXSW Trailer: What Keeps You Alive (2018)

"On the eve of their one year wedding anniversary, Jules and Jackie become embroiled in a merciless fight for their lives when they find themselves pitted against the most unexpected of adversaries: each other. As violence rains down upon their idyllic forest getaway, the women engage in a frenzied psychological and vicious battle that will test the very limits of their instinct to survive."

The trailer for What Keeps You Alive has a mood about it that makes us think of the excellent 2016 Thriller, The Invitation (read our review HERE.) Of course this movies features a married lesbian couple going at each other with bloody results, but hey, it's got the same vibe.

Can't wait to check this one out later this year.


What Keeps You Alive is playing at SXSW now.

Trailer: Josie (2018)

"Hank, a solitary man living a dull existence in the sleepy, Southern town raises eyebrows when he develops a questionable relationship with Josie, a recently transplanted high school student."

In the great tradition of Lolita and Poison Ivy, here's another tale of a young girl messing with an older man, which is likely to end in total disaster for all parties involved. Daddy issues. It's always daddy issues.

Sansa Stark does look good all tatted up, and Dylan McDermott plays intense pretty well, so hey, why not.


Josie hits theaters and VOD on March 16th.

7 Guardians of The Tomb is Hitting VOD on February 23rd

Formerly titled Nest 3D, 7 Guardians of The Tomb is full of spiders, and is there anything more terrifying than spiders?

Trailer: Mute (2018)

"In a Berlin of the future, a mute bartender's search for his missing lady-love takes him deeper and deeper into the city's criminal underbelly."

You can add Mute to the wave of futuristic Sci-Fi projects that are blowing our minds lately (Blade Runner, Altered Carbon, Black Mirror, etc...), and as lovers of all things dystopian future, we'll be adding this one to our Netflix play list come February 23rd.


Mute hits Netflix on February 23rd.

Trailer: Hellraiser: Judgement (2018)

"Detectives Sean and David Carter are on the case to find a gruesome serial killer terrorizing the city. Joining forces with Detective Christine Egerton, they dig deeper into a spiraling maze of horror that may not be of this world."

Remember a few years back when the fine lads over at Dimension Films gave us the cheap cash-in that was Hellraiser: Revelations? You can read our review HERE if you need a refresher, but suffice it to say that it was really bad, in a really big way. Well, it's seven years later, and they're at it again, but this time it looks as if they might have gotten it right. Or at least more right than they did with Revelations.

There's no Doug Bradley to be found here, but Heather Langenkamp is present, Pinhead actually looks like Pinhead this time, and it looks like it goes to some crazy places, visually..

At the very least, it looks better than Dimension's last try at the series, which isn't saying much at all, but hey, you never know. Maybe it will be good?


Hellraiser: Judgment hits home video on February 13th.
