We were WAY too harsh on Brandon Christensen's NIGHT OF THE REAPER, so we watched it again. Everything clicked into place this time! bsidesbadlands.com/night-of-the...

While Alex Kugelman's indie horror film DON'T TRIP feels ripped from the early '00s with its many "I'm not gay" jokes, it does have several things going for it. My @bsidesbadlands.bsky.social review! bsidesbadlands.com/dont-trip-ho...

QUEENS OF THE DEAD is out today on VOD!!! My glowing review for @bsidesbadlands.bsky.social bsidesbadlands.com/queens-of-th...

I really enjoyed @tomblake17.bsky.social’s “My Horror Anatomy” feature for @bsidesbadlands.bsky.social This comment on “Don’t Look Now” is devastating though: “Its darkest message is how grief feeds on hope.” bsidesbadlands.com/my-horror-an... @beedelores.bsky.social

We had the chance to chat with The Noisy's Sara Mae about a new deluxe album and how horror storytelling has influenced their own work bsidesbadlands.com/the-noisy-th...

Out of Brooklyn Horror, Simon Rumley's Crushed sinks into depravity for fun without saying anything of value. Beware: a snuff film about a kitten being crushed with high heels and strong implications of child sexual assault and murder. bsidesbadlands.com/crushed-horr...

Madeline Doherty's found footage film FEY is a banger. We'll be thinking about this one for a very long time. It drops 11/14 - keep your eyes peeled. My review! bsidesbadlands.com/fey-horror-f...

Genre-busting collective 2LOT collide with famed producer Albert Harvey for new mix EP. Our review! bsidesbadlands.com/2lot-albert-...

A round-up of films out of the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival -- including Dead Lover, It Needs Eyes, and Camp! bsidesbadlands.com/dead-lover-i...

Cassie Keet's ABIGAIL BEFORE BEATRICE is *excellent*. Out of Brooklyn Horror, it nails the psychological damage incurred by survivors of cults! bsidesbadlands.com/abigail-befo...

Rohan Campbell absolutely kills it in Connor Marsden's VIOLENCE, out of Brooklyn Horror Film Festival! bsidesbadlands.com/violence-hor...

Hitting @watchfoundtv.bsky.social tomorrow, Luke Genton's JABBERJAW is a decent creep fest that remixes Willow Creek and the "Slumber Party Alien Abduction" segment from V/H/S/2 bsidesbadlands.com/jabberjaw-ho...

Out of ScreamFest, we round up four films to scream about! bsidesbadlands.com/jimmy-cognai...

THE RED MASK, out of Screamfest, is a meta-slasher that hits all the right beats. It references The Strangers, Funny Games, and Scream while also doing its own clever thing. bsidesbadlands.com/the-red-mask...

New Music Weekly! Stream songs from @ryanealon.bsky.social, Girl Wilde, Lucy Dacus, Katie Pruitt, Maggie Rose, Jenna Paulette, Wrabel, Loyd, and more! open.spotify.com/playlist/5lJ...

DEAD BY DAWN, out of Screamfest, is an unfortunate mess. As the love child of StageFright (1987) and Opera (1987), it’s neither as compelling as those classics nor inventive enough to stand on its own. My review! bsidesbadlands.com/dead-by-dawn...

AFFECTION is one helluva acting vehicle for Jessica Rothe. The film, which played Screamfest last night, kicks off the festival with a cannonball-sized splash. Definitely one to watch! bsidesbadlands.com/affection-ho...

@bsidesbadlands.bsky.social features new Rosy Nolan single "Get On Me" in their Freshly Squeezed playlist alongside John Calvin Abney, Madison Beer, Carly Rae Jepsen, Malin Petterson, and more. Listen here: open.spotify.com/playlist/5lJ...

If you like Urban Legend, you might enjoy Jeffrey Primm's 213 BONES, which played FrightFest last month. It treads familiar territory, but does it well. bsidesbadlands.com/213-bones-ho...

Ben Leonberg's GOOD BOY, hitting theaters this Friday, is a terrifying story with Indy killing it in the lead role bsidesbadlands.com/good-boy-hor...

Queer noir BODY BLOW is another favorite out of Fantastic Fest. Sexy, seductive, and neon-soaked! bsidesbadlands.com/body-blow-no...

Martijn Smits' bloody-as-hell MEAT KILLS is a favorite out of Fantastic Fest bsidesbadlands.com/meat-kills-h...

Out of Fantastic Fest, Colin Minihan's COYOTES is better than it has any right to be! bsidesbadlands.com/coyotes-horr...

Out of Fantastic Fest, Glenn McQuaid's THE RESTORATION OF GRAYSON MANOR delivers delicious soap opera fun with a pair of evil hands thrown in! bsidesbadlands.com/the-restorat...

Keep your 👀 peeled for indie slasher WE'RE SO DEAD. It's set in a restaurant on Christmas Eve and tackles the Karens of the world with absolute hilarity. It's a damn good time! 🎄🔪 Our review 🔗 bsidesbadlands.com/were-so-dead...

Out of Fantastic Fest, Kenichi Ugana's THE CURSE explores social media as a curse of society with some terrifying imagery, even though there are far too many unscary moments bsidesbadlands.com/the-curse-ho...

New Music Weekly! Spin new songs from @johncalvinabney.bsky.social, Lera Lynn, @bronzeavery.com, Cory Stewart, @lolablanc.bsky.social, Runaway June, Mandi Sagal, Malin Pettersen, ZZ Ward, and Madison Beer! open.spotify.com/playlist/5lJ...

Out of Fantastic Fest, Kyle Misak's horror/comedy Bad Haircut is a decent time with Frankie Ray delivering a truly wacky performance bsidesbadlands.com/bad-haircut-...

Out of @fantasiafestival.com, FOREIGNER is another favorite. It carries a potent message about assimilation as it tells the story of one young Iranian teen who abandons her culture to fit in bsidesbadlands.com/foreigner-ho...

Out of @fantasiafestival.com, Kurtis David Harder's INFLUENCERS is damn near perfect. It's a sequel to die for and so much more unhinged than the first film bsidesbadlands.com/influencers-...

Out of @fantasiafestival.com, BURNING is brutal and devastating and not at all what you might expect. bsidesbadlands.com/burning-horr...

Out of @fantasiafestival.com, @adamsfamfilms.bsky.social have done it again! MOTHER OF FLIES is a gloriously creepy piece of folk horror! bsidesbadlands.com/mother-of-fl...

SWEETNESS is our second favorite out of @fantasiafestival.com - an incisive dissection of parasocial relationships with celebrities and one young girl's well-intentioned actions to help her fave get clean bsidesbadlands.com/sweetness-ho...

Out of @fantasiafestival.com, horror/thriller HELLCAT is an absolute, one-location delight! bsidesbadlands.com/hellcat-horr...
