There’s something deeply unsettling about family in horror, especially when home starts feeling like a trap with better lighting. And if anyone knows how to twist that knife, it’s Joko Anwar, the mind behind Satan’s Slaves and Impetigore. Now he’s circling back with something a little more intimate. And by intimate, I mean ‘your childhood…

We have reached a point in The Cult Archives where the traditional laws of physics, narrative structure, and human biology no longer apply. If you think you’ve seen weird cinema, if you think you’ve plumbed the depths of the bizarre, I am here to tell you that you are a rank amateur until you have…

If Ed Wood was still alive, he would not only have been a huge fan of Vampire Zombies… from Space!, he would’ve probably found a way to at least produce it. Which is the highest praise I can think of. In fact, it’s so influenced by The Master of Schlock Cinema that they have a…

Plaion Pictures has locked in a May 18th digital release for Killer Whale, a survival horror-thriller that swaps out friendly aquarium vibes for something a lot more bitey. Directed by Jo-Anne Brechin (who also co-wrote alongside Katharine…

Alright, be honest, who thought that the most horrific thing in The Death of Robin Hood would be Hugh Jackman’s English accent? Yeah, me as well. However, it seems that we might have all been wrong, as the teaser trailer shows a much darker, much more violent take on the Outlaw Legend. This is not…

WARNING!! SPOILERS AHEAD!! So don’t moan that I didn’t tell you. Every now and then a film crawls out of the indie swamp, wipes the mud off its face, and reminds you that you don’t need a blockbuster budget to feeak someone out. You just need a good idea, two actors willing to go for…

Good advice. Immediately ignored. Leviticus is heading to cinemas June 19th via NEON, and the newly released trailer makes it clear this isn’t your standard ‘things go bump in the night situation’, it’s more ‘your emotions might kill you’.
