The Spider Bride
had just stepped into my apartment, carrying a shopping bag with the dress I’d been dreaming about for weeks—the dress I would wear the day Daniel finally came to set the date for our engagement.

Run Is A Sci-Fi Movie That Knows A Broken Heart Is Scarier Than Aliens by NWO Sparrow
I am so tired of watching people just be scared of aliens. It is not that the screaming and the running is not fun. It is. But after a while, it all blends together. The fear is generic. The hero is just trying to live. There is no texture to it.

Spider Baby
Mantan Moreland, who was cast in Hollywood flicks in the Thirties as a "Step ’n Fetchit" stereotype in films that would simply not cut it in today’s era of Woke (to put it mildly), looks in at a window after driving his motorbike (if I remember correctly) out to the godforsaken, dust-choked, hardscrabble back hills of sunny L.A. Suddenly, the window—like a giant glass jaw—clamps down on the luckless Moreland. A mysterious and quite clearly insane and very bad actress–cum–Sixties teenybopper comes forward, twin butcher knives in each hand. She crosses her arms in a gesture calculated to call to mind the mandibles of a giant spider. She says:

Nightwatch (1994) is a Disturbing and Unpredictable Murder Mystery
I don't normally include the year that a film is made in the title. However, since there are quite a few films and I think a TV show with the same title, I added the year so that readers wouldn't be confused with which film I'm going to be discussing today.

The Advent Calendar
This is the kind of movie that makes you watch in fear, pause repeatedly to process each scene, rewind five or six times to truly understand what happened, then grab some water before daring to press play again. That’s exactly how I watched it—one scene kept me so puzzled I replayed it half a dozen times.

Talk to Me is a Cutthroat Tale of Grief and Horror
I have watched this movie several years ago, and I was so impressed by how disturbing and gory this film was. The trailer barely gave anything away, and I knew I was in for a good time once I saw this film in theaters. It takes a lot for me to look away from the screen from gory scenes, but man, some parts of this film were so damn brutal!

Demonoid: Messenger of Death
Behold! The poster art promised pure, molten heavy-metal hell—a horned warrior, sword raised to the void, a shrieking cosmic face frozen in eternal terror. It looked like a lost Manowar album, or the forbidden sketch on the back of a high school notebook, drawn by a kid who carved pentagrams into his desk with a compass.

Cuckoo is One of the Most Scariest and Original Monster Flicks Ever Made
I wasn’t sure what to expect when it came to the late-night screening of Cuckoo. When I saw the trailer, I knew I had to watch this film. There was so much mystery behind the horror, and I was immediately intrigued.

Weapons (2025) is Not What You Think it is

VHS: Beyond is One of the Best Films in the Franchise
The V/H/S horror franchise has now gone to space, going down the sci — fi train of terror through the use of found footage. This film has now become one of my favorite films in the franchise!

Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove. “I incline to Cain’s heresy,” he used to say quaintly: “I let my brother go to the devil in his own way.” In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of downgoing men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour.

The Last Message
It started with a message... Emma, a 23-year-old student from London, had always been curious about the darker side of the internet. A self-proclaimed “paranormal enthusiast,” she loved browsing through mysterious forums, reading creepy tales, and watching strange, unsolved disappearances. One night, after scrolling through a forum she hadn’t visited before, she came across an unusual post titled “Send a Message to the Future, and It Will Reply.”
