Now Atkins himself as let slip that Fred Dekker is planning a potential return to the Night of the Creeps universe – and the original cast is coming along! Tom Atkins explained the exciting situation…

When the first film titled The Grudge was released to theaters in 2004, it received a PG-13 rating. The flick helped popularize the success of such horror films, and many have since been released with only PG-13. But with this new interpretation of The Grudge being directed by Nicolas Pesce, it looks like he really is going darker with it – because it’s now an officially R-Rated The Grudge film.

Its address was…

Over the years, one thing that’s become quite common in the horror community is the popularity of fan films. They’ve not only allowed people with professional skills to create their own continuations to franchises like Friday the 13th, but helped keep the hype alive while studios waste time battling with rights or when to make a new movie. Now it looks like we’ll be getting a Nightmare on Elm Street fan film – albeit a direct sequel to New Nightmare titled Dylan’s New Nightmare – with actor Miko Hughes returning in the lead role! As you can see in the…

The first Hatchet film created by Adam Green is one of the few original modern slasher films that successfully spawned a franchise. Once Hatchet II came around, scream queen Danielle Harris became the series’ protagonist up until the release of Victor Crowley. That particular sequel, however, did tease a larger role for Danielle Harris should another film be produced – and according to Harris, that’s the plan. In fact, we could be getting two new Hatchet sequels. Danielle Harris was recently asked at Monster Mania 44 if we could expect anything else from the Hatchet franchise in the future. She…

SpongeBob SquarePants has remained one of the most popular animated television series since its debut on Nickelodeon in 1999. While most would consider the series a perfect example of family-friendly television that everyone can enjoy, it appears that isn’t the case for some.
