• Hollywood Hells Eats Its Own

    Black Mandala is backing Hollywood Hells, a sleek horror thriller from writer-director Ben Peyser that drags the red carpet into something a lot less glamorous and a lot more predatory. Vega (Fernanda Romero) isn’t chasing fame so much as she’s trying to outrun failure. Stuck between raising her son, dealing with family pressure, and an…

  • Final Trailer for Exit 8 Cranks the Weird All the Way Up

    Neon has dropped the final trailer for Exit 8 ahead of its theatrical release this Friday, April 10th, and it doesn’t just get under your skin, it sets up camp and starts toasting satanic marshmallows. Directed by Genki Kawamura and based on the video game by Kotake Create, Exit 8 traps Kazunari Ninomiya in what…

  • Strawstalker Plants a Scarecrow in Influencer Hell

    Dark Atlantic Studios has unleashed the first trailer for Strawstalker, a found footage horror outing from writer/director George Henry Horton, and this one’s got dirt under its nails. A clout-chasing couple trades whatever shred of privacy they had left for a picture-perfect LA home, documenting every second for the algorithm. Unfortunately for them, their new…

  • Coffy (1973): Shotguns, Silk, and Systemic Rot

    Forget your polished heroes with clean consciences and backup plans. In 1973, Jack Hill and Pam Grier (who I may have mentioned I have a thing for) dropped Coffy into cinemas like a brick through a window. Loud, sudden, and absolutely not interested in cleaning up the mess afterwards. This isn’t a story about justice…

  • Happy Halloween Streams April 14th with Small-Town Slasher Chaos

    Uncork’d Entertainment is set to release Happy Halloween across digital platforms on April 14th, 2026, dropping a teen horror mystery that blends masked-killer paranoia with a social media streak that feels way too comfortable hitting ‘live’. Written and directed by Brittney Greer, the film zeroes in on a town that treats October 31st like a…

  • The Asylum Unleashes Its Own Mummy

    Before Lee Cronin’s The Mummy hits theaters April 17, The Asylum had already rolled out their own version, because waiting politely was never really their thing. Their take on The Mummy landed on Digital on April 3rd, dragging a cursed artifact, mucho spookiness, and a very stupid plan to cheat deathaling with it. The story…

  • Buffet Infinity Serves Ads, Cults, and Something Sinister

    Buffet Infinity has dropped a trailer, and instead of giving you scenes like a normal film, it feeds you a stream of fake TV commercials that slowly start to feel very, very sinister. The hook is simple but weirdly effective: the story unfolds through a patchwork of low-budget commercials, all set in the fictional Westridge…

  • The Mystery of Chess Boxing (1979): Where Mind Meets Muscle

    If you’re a regular visitor to the Horror Archives, you’ll know by now that I’m addicted to movies that feel like they were filmed on a dare. The kind of films that exist only because someone bet a somebody else that they couldn’t make a kung fu movie about strategy, philosophy, and who gets punched…

  • The Mortuary Assistant (2026): Willa Holland vs. The Possessed

    WARNING! POTENTIAL SPOILERS! So don’t moan that I didn’t warn you. If there is one thing I’ve learned from years of rummaging through the damp, flickering basement of the horror genre, it’s this: never, under any circumstances, take a job that involves overnight shifts and industrial quantities of formaldehyde. But thank the unholy powers that…

  • The New Trailer For The Mummy is Pure Nightmare Fuel
