We've updated our VOD Release Dates Page with a ton of titles that will be hitting a streaming outlet near you in December, and there are more than a few that are must see releases. You can check out the small preview below, or click the above link to see everything that's available now or coming soon on VOD.

*Be sure to click the pics to pre-order the movies (if available), or watch their trailers. Or both. Or neither. It really depends on your mood, now doesn't it?

*If you aren't already a member, you should really give Amazon Prime a shot, especially if you order movies on the regular like we do, because the free two-day shipping pays for itself after around 10 orders. Check it out for free HERE.

*Keep in mind that release dates can, and most likely will change.

"The young Jennifer Corvino (played by Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Connelly, in one of her first film roles) is sent to a private Swiss academy for girls where a vicious killer is on the loose, brutally murdering students. Jennifer is a “gifted” girl with the strange ability to communicate with insects, and Dr. McGregor (Donald Pleasence, John Carpenter’s HALLOWEEN series, ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK) enlists her to help locate the killer. Jennifer finds herself in a bizarre murder plot with maggots, mutants, and razor-wielding chimpanzee mayhem! Can she uncover the killer’s identity before becoming a victim herself? Daria Nicolodi (TENEBRAE) and Fiore Argento (DEMONS) also star in this strange, unique and gory film from Italy’s Master of Horror, Dario Argento. PHENOMENA also features fantastic soundtrack music from progressive-rock favorite Goblin, British Heavy Metal masters Motörhead & Iron Maiden, Andi Sex Gang, Bill Wyman and Simon Boswell!

Synapse Films is proud to present Dario Argento’s PHENOMENA in this beautiful Limited Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Steelbook® (only 3000 units produced), containing THREE different cuts of the film re-mastered in stunning high-definition!

"The most-watched series in HBO history and a worldwide TV phenomenon, Game of Thrones returns with another power season. This year, after the shocking developments at the end of Season 5 – including Jon Snow's bloody fate at the hands of Castle Black mutineers, Daenerys' near-demise at the fighting pits of Meereen, and Cersei's public humiliation in the streets of King's Landing – survivors from all parts of Westeros and Essos regroup to press forward, inexorably, towards their uncertain individual fates. Familiar faces will forge new alliances to bolster their strategic chances at survival, while new characters will emerge to challenge the balance of power in the east, west, north and south."

GOT is an excellent show that may have just given us the best season of its run this past Spring, and now there's only one more season to go... which will be split up into two, 7 episode "seasons" over the next two years.

Ugh.

The cool part is that the Blu-ray sets of each season are top notch, and we have a whole year to get this new one, and watch through the whole series again!

Ugh.

This is a Must Own Blu-ray set, but dammit we want to see what happens next!

Special Features:

• In-Episode Guide – Dig deeper into the show with this in-feature resource that provides background information about on-screen characters, locations, and relevant histories.
• Histories and Lore – Learn about the mythology of Westeros and Essos as told from the varying perspectives of the characters themselves in 18 history pieces.
• The Battle of the Bastards: An In-Depth Look – Behind-the-scenes piece examining the production challenges of creating this epic event, including explorations of VFX, stunts, and interviews with key cast and crew.
• Recreating the Dothraki World – Behind-the-scenes piece looking at the creation of Vaes Dothrak and its importance to Dany's evolution.
• 18 Hours at the Paint Hall –Follow all three shooting units as they converge in this behind-the-scenes snapshot of a day in the life of the largest show on television
• Audio Commentaries – The most commentaries ever recorded for Game of Thrones, featuring:

"In downtown Manhattan, a police captain’s hunt for his missing wife leads to the discovery of a series of mysterious disappearances in the area. Extending his search into the tunnels and sewers below the city streets, it soon becomes clear that something monstrous is lurking in that subterranean world – and it won’t stay there much longer…"

Arrow Video is giving us some silly, B-grade 80's goodness this week in the form of Cannibalistic Underground Humanoid Dwellers, aka C.H.U.D. If that title doesn't clue you into what you're in for with this one, then nothing will.

This is going to be a fun one to revisit in its new format.

Special Features:

•Brand new restoration from original film elements
•High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation

• Better Call Saul is an excellent show, and one that we'll definitely be adding to the old library. 
• The Twilight Time release of The Boston Strangler is one we're interested in grabbing. Tony Curtis was absolutely chilling in this one. 
• Scream Factory is giving us a Collector's Edition of Dead Ringers, which is awesome, because more Cronenberg on Blu-ray is never a bad thing. 
• And everything else, as always, is a crap-shoot.

UPDATED: Our Top 31 Upcoming Movies of 2016 & 2017!

*This is an on-going post which is updated every Tuesday & Friday, to keep up with releases and release date changes.

We're always, ALWAYS, searching for newest and best Horror & Genre movies & TV shows to watch, which is why we work so hard to keep our Blu-ray & DVD, Theatrical, VOD, and TV release dates pages up to date.

One thing that we've never done though, until now, is kept a running list of the movies coming soon to a big or small screen near you that we want to see the most, and there are always a lot of those. With that in mind, below you'll find the Top 30 Upcoming Horror & Genre Projects that have us chomping at the bit like rabid fiends. And yeah, they're in order from most to least anticipated.

• The movies listed below all have release dates that are set. As you know, some of them can, and will, change.
  
• You'll only find new projects that will be Theatrical, VOD, and TV releases on this list. Nothing that's coming soon on disc (unless it’s some sort of Special Edition.).
  
• You can click the pics to be taken to each movie's IMDB page, for release date info, etc...The release dates can also be found in the file names.
  
• This list will be mainly comprised of upcoming Horror projects, but the occasional Superhero, Sci-Fi, or Action flick might break through. It's all relative to our interests.
  
• We will add and remove titles from this list as needed, which will be pretty often.
  
• As we head into the last two months of the year, releases are going to start getting bigger, but fewer. With that in mind, we've added a few titles from 2017 at the bottom, because that transition is coming sooner than we think anyhow.
  
• Mark your calendars!

11/14- Removed: The Monster, Shut In, The Similars, and Elle, Due to release.  
11/14- Added: A few more 2017 titles!

I SWEAR THAT IF YOU USE YOUR MOUSE TO SCROLL UP AND DOWN WHILE LOOKING AT THIS PIC, THE VIDEO TAPE MOVES. CREEPY.
