Freddy, Steady, Go: Robert Englund Reveals Who He Wants To See Play Freddy Krueger Next

With his sharp wit and his razor glove, who could ever forget the nightmare-inducing might that was once Freddy Krueger? There have been some nine #FreddyKrueger movies with two men donninh the moniker, but the role of the burned bastard will always be synonymous with horror legend #RobertEnglund.

Left In The Dark (Universe): Alex Kurtzman May Abandon Universal's Dark Universe
You'd better call your "mummy" for this one, because it looks like Universal's Dark Universe could be in even more trouble than we first thought. Kicking off the studio's own monsterverse with the good and the great of scary stories, #AlexKurtzman's #TheMummy failed to resurrect itself from an early grave and stick a huge question mark on where Universal should go next.

Is It A Trick Or Is It A Treat? 'Halloween' Reboot Will Ignore All The Franchise Sequels
As Michael Myers prepares to come home once again, the world of horror is bracing itself for the Halloween franchise to return to our screens in a big way. Some four decades after the first film kickstarted the slasher genre, directors David Gordon Green and Danny McBride are sticking on their own pale-faced masks and giving us a whole new reason to be scared of the bloodthirsty boogeyman.

Reed Alexander's Review of 'Infini' (2015)
Yeah, this was a pretty fucking awesome movie. Not sure if I'd call it horror, but it was an awesome movie. My biggest problem is they kinda pussied out on the ending. Okay, no they totally pussied out on the ending... I'll get into more details about that in the spoilers, but, for the most part, the movie itself was pretty fucking good.

Don't Lose Your Fred: 'Freddy vs. Jason' Director Clarifies THAT Final Scene
Every horror franchise has its ups and its downs, and while 2003's Freddy vs. Jason was hardly the pinnacle of A Nightmare on Elm Street or Friday the 13th lore, just think that it could always be worse. After a spectacular run through the '80s and '90s, the lives of Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees had become a little stale, so why not do what everyone else does and try out a crossover?

'Crimson Peak' Is an Odd Artistic Film with a Few Ghosts Sprinkled In. You Have a Better Chance of Getting More Horror out of 'Goosebumps.'
Every time October comes around, I make it my mission to go and see a bone chilling scary movie that has me jumping every five minutes. That being said I would also like to see a great story to go along with my shrill feminine screams.

Are You Coming On A 'Slay' Ride? Kevin Smith Is Directing Creepshow- Inspired Christmas Anthology
Oh #KevinSmith, where would cinema be without you? The brash director who brought us the likes of Clerks and Mallrats, was once in the running to direct DC's The Flash, and even named his daughter after Harley Quinn, but now he is heading back to his horror roots for his latest venture.

Is 'Split' Scary? The 10 Most Shocking Moments From M. Night Shyamalan's Horror
I have trouble dealing with one personality, let alone 24, but James McAvoy seems to be winning over critics in M. Night Shyamalan's latest blockbuster. Billed as a psychological thriller akin to the rest of Shyamalan's work, Split has thrown its hat into the ring as one of 2017's best horrors; all that and it only came out in January. In a year of resurrecting Jigsaw, chestbursting xenomorphs, and another round of Child's Play, how does #Split bring home the bacon in the #horror stakes?

'Underworld: Blood Wars' Sucks The Life Out Of The Franchise With Disastrous Opening Weekend
Uh oh, it looks like bad news for the Underworld universe, as Underworld: Blood Wars has been slain by the competition in cinemas with a frankly frightful opening weekend. We here at Movie Pilot, we already tipped Blood Wars to be something of a marmite affair, even calling the death of #KateBeckinsale's career one of 2016's saddest on-screen deaths. However, it is now official that Blood Wars sucks. Perhaps we should have stuck a stake through the heart of Lycans vs. vamps after the fourth film.
