The greatest horror titles are haunted by marauding monsters, eviscerating aliens and little girls in red coats. Steel yourself to meet some of the most chilling ghosts in the machine

John Carpenter’s horror classic is not about what you think it’s about. By Tracy Moore.

As reported by Entertainment Weekly, HBO’s various streaming platforms will be getting a new original anthology show on February 1 called Folklore that explores spooky myths from across six countries in Asia—specifically Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Japan. Each installment of the six-episode series will focus on the “supernatural beings and occult beliefs” of a different country, with each one coming from different directors and being presented in the native language of its country.

The strengths of “Resolution” are in the pacing, character development and cinematography which help make this film stand out in today’s world of fast paced gore cliches.

Friends disappeared? Killer on the loose? It’s just possible you’re in the middle of a horror film. But follow Rory’s advice, and you may survive until the end credits…

"The formula is easy enough to follow, but I have noticed over the years slasher fans always seem to talk about the same movies. The movies that set the tone. The Friday the 13ths and the Halloweens. But what about the hundreds of other slasher movies through the ages? How come they get no love? Well, my sick friends. They are about to."

"If you didn’t know there was a Spanish version of Dracula from 1931 don’t be too hard on yourself. I didn’t know about it either until I bought the DVD and it was included as a special feature."

Here are 10 of our favorite horror movie songs, all of which would’ve been given Best Original Song awards at the Oscars, if we were in charge!

"Unambitious, derivative works litter the independent film landscape. That's what makes “The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh” so special... The Last Will tackles big ideas while allowing its author to lay his own demons out for all to see. The horror community needs more films like this one."

In the last couple of decades, supernatural horror has earned its place in the constellation of major genres represented in series television.

"But what's most impressive is the consistent oddball originality of the film. A Field in England is certainly not for all tastes, but as a unique combination of war movie, absurdist farce, and semi-disturbing horror story, it's almost a hypnotic movie experience."

This is the type of ridiculous horror-comedy that couldn't come from anywhere except Japan, and it’s the type of movie people will either love or look down their nose at.

“Jason Voorhees is synonymous with the genre and we plan to build on this legacy with a provocative and compelling take that expands upon the storylines that have already thrilled millions worldwide,” explained Cunningham. Said Barsamian: “Expect the show to take viewers in some exciting new directions that we’re confident will not only excite existing fans of Friday The 13th but also attract new audiences to the situations and characters that inhabit the small town of Crystal Lake.”

How a Sci-Fi thriller pitched as "Hellraiser in Space" passed from director to director, until it wound up in the hands of Francis Ford Coppola. Starring James Spader, Angela Bassett, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Twilight's Peter Facinelli.

"When you think of Dracula, who do you imagine? Probably Bela Lugosi, the actor who made vampires synonymous with slick black hair and a widow's peak. Norman Bates will forever be Anthony Perkins in my head; Jack Torrance is Jack Nicholson and Annie Wilkes is Kathy Bates. But that is not exactly how Bram Stoker, Robert Bloch, and Stephen King imagined their characters."

"Rachel Deering amasses one of the largest tomes of horror in comics. A collection that will chill you to the core, educate you on the tenants of the genre, and change the way you look at horror comics forever. “In The Dark” is a supreme example of horror in comics. You can’t miss this book."
