Halloween isn’t just a season, it’s a state of mind. And that state of mind? An insatiable thirst for revenge from beyond the grave that can only summoned by backmasking records, of course! We’re talking heavy metal horror Trick or Treat (1986) on this week’s episode of the Nightmare on Film Street Horror movie podcast!

When it comes to Stranger Things, “worst-rated” feels like an insult to the Upside Down itself. But hey, even the best shows have episodes that get unfairly ghosted by fans. Not every chapter can be a monster-slaying, synth-blaring, Max-floating-on-air masterpiece. Some episodes just exist in the shadows, like that one Demodog, we all forgot about.
But here’s the thing, these so-called duds? They’re actually lowkey brilliant. They might not have made Twitter trend lists or sparked a thousand Halloween costumes, but they have charm, character moments, and, sometimes, most real emotional punches.

The most-watched horror film on Amazon Freevee today is a farcical effort starring the iconic Danny Trejo. I’m talking about John Gulager’s latest film, Seven Cemeteries (stylized on the one sheet as Se7en Cemeteries). The film has been charting in the top 10 on Freevee for the past several days, and today, Seven Cemeteries sits as the third most-watched film on the service overall.
To call this horror picture campy might be an understatement. After all, the flick follows a recently paroled Danny Trejo and his army of undead sidekicks as they face off against a drug impresario. If you need an escape from reality, this may be just the ticket.
In the film, “A recent parolee gets a Mexican witch to resurrect his old posse so that they can help him save a woman’s ranch from a ruthless drug lord.“

Last year, Synapse Films and Red Shirt Home Video teamed up to bring us a deluxe edition Blu-ray and 4K Uhd release of the 1986 rock ‘n roll horror film Trick or Treat, one of my all-time favorite movies. Now, they’re working on several follow-up projects, including a 4K Uhd and Blu-ray release of Fright Night Part 2 – and a deluxe edition 4K Uhd and Blu-ray release of Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II! Red Shirt’s Michael Felsher announced the Prom Night II project on social media, where he also revealed that Blu-ray releases of Prom Night III: The Last Kiss and Prom Night IV: Deliver Us from Evil are in the works.

Now Synapse and Red Shirt have announced that they’ll also be giving the deluxe edition treatment to the 1988 vampire sequel Fright Night Part 2!

According to Red Shirt’s Michael Felsher, it’s likely to be released sometime in 2026.

Tim Burton is one of the most visually inventive filmmakers of all time, and his work doesn’t just have its own unique visual flair, it is also wonderfully macabre. He came to prominence in the early 1980s with short movies such as Vincent from 1982, and 1984’s Frankenweenie, and followed them up with classic films like Beetlejuice and Batman towards the end of the 80s. Burton went on to make numerous other weird and wonderful movies, and he’s currently putting the finishing touches to the second season of the well-received Wednesday from 2022. And, oh yeah, his latest movie, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice just grossed half a billion dollars!
I’ve always found Burton’s work to be hugely influential from a design perspective, and if you look at any of his creations, from Jack Skellington, to Edward Scissorhands, there’s no doubt that they’re Tim Burton characters. In October of this year,...

Over the years, DC Comics has introduced countless superheroes to the world, including icons like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. However, not every superhero attains that level of mainstream fame, as many end up falling to the wayside with time. The DC Universe is vast, and there are plenty of lesser-known heroes who don't get nearly enough recognition. And it's about time that changed.
Some characters within DC lore may have been popular once, but have since been neglected as others surpassed them in the public eye. With god-like figures and renowned warriors at the forefront of the Justice League, it stands to reason that underdogs would pale in comparison. Still, these heroes deserve as much of a fair shot as the likes of the Trinity, and DC's All In era is the perfect opportunity for them to be revived. Here are 8 overlooked heroes that DC needs to bring back into the spotlight.

We found out last year that the 1986 rock ‘n roll horror film Trick or Treat, one of my all-time favorite movies, would be getting a Blu-ray and 4K Uhd release from Synapse Films. They were originally aiming for a Halloween 2023 release, but since they missed that month they ended up giving the movie a limited edition release last month. Those 6,666 units sold out so fast, with fans crashing the Synapse Films website along the way, that the company has now wisely decided to put together a standard edition of the Blu-ray and 4K Uhd release as well. Today, they announced that the street date for the standard edition is March 11th.
Directed by Charles Martin Smith from a screenplay by Rhet Topham, Joel Soisson, and Michael S. Murphey (with an uncredited polish from the Final Destination duo of James Wong and Glen Morgan), Trick or Treat has the following synopsis:...

After a generic DVD run and Blu-rays released outside the U.S. market under the name Ragman, Synapse Films has answered the prayers of many horror-metal fans with the recent 4K release of 1986’s Trick or Treat. Having “No Wimps” and “No False Metal,” this film is considered by many to be the quintessential heavy metal horror flick, partially thanks to a perfectly apropos soundtrack provided by the band Fastway.
After constantly being harassed by the cool kids at his high school, Eddie Weinbauer aka “Ragman” finds solace in listening to the music of his idol Sammi Curr to get through the abuse. Not only is he a famous heavy metal star, but Curr is also an alum at Eddie’s high school where he became an outcast-made-good into metal stardom. And this is why Eddie feels a faux bond and extreme idolization for Curr since he believes they share the same origin story,...

Halloween is upon us, so stay safe out there — and stay away from the taco meat.
Tonight, America’s costumed children will venture out in search of treats, trickster teenagers will commit playful acts of vandalism and us older, sensible folk will hole up in our homes, eat candy and re-watch festive, barely frightening and deliciously nostalgic TV shows and movies from our own childhoods.
While horror films are the traditional fare for a night such as tonight, the last half-century of American culture embracing the theme of the season has led to every syndicated TV show at least attempting a Halloween episode, and, for those of us who prefer laughs to gasps, we’d rather settle in with a sitcom than a slasher while we eat cupcakes decorated like skulls and drink punch that we’ll pretend is blood.

For many of us, Halloween is our favorite holiday – and to celebrate, the staff at JoBlo Horror Originals has put together a new video to showcase some of our favorite horror movie quotes of all time. This ranges from cult classic lines we repeat to our friends in private to popular lines that are referenced in all of pop culture, and we’re getting into them all. Now, I’m sure there will be some notable exclusions, as we did have to abide by strict copyright rules, but we certainly did our best to include the best of the best.

Heavy metal horror is a genre that was born, peaked, and all but died out in the 1980s. It was a time when the satanic panic was in full swing, and people like Tipper Gore were telling everybody that heavy metal music was carving up the souls of Americas youth and serving them straight to the devil. Naturally, filmmakers would jump at the chance to lampoon this idea by exploiting it in horror movies, with one such film being 1986's Trick or Treat.

Trick Or Treat Limited Edition 4K Uhd + Blu-ray: "From the early days of DVD, one movie more than any other has been requested by horror fans and metal heads all over: Charles Martin Smith’s heavy metal horror classic Trick Or Treat. A box office disappointment that found a wide following on home video and cable in the 80s and 90s, it’s been curiously out of reach to fans, who would rely on dubious DVDs and imports to get their Halloween heavy horror treat. Now, Red Shirt Pictures and Synapse Films are finally bringing the much-anticipated Trick Or Treat to your door in a definitive Limited Edition 4K Uhd/Blu-ray that will make every day Halloween for horror fanatics and headbangers!
Rock ‘n’ roll will never die, in this 1980s cult favorite that stars Marc Price (Family Ties) as Eddie Weinbauer, a teenage outcast who idolizes Sammi Curr (Tony Fields), a heavy metal superstar.

Although Halloween is embraced by all ages these days, it was mostly a children’s holiday not all that long ago. What is essentially now a multi-month event was a single day of fun back then. The real world has changed in this regard, but some things stay the same in TV anthologies; kids are still the focal point in stories about Halloween.
In episodic anthologies rooted in horror, Halloween stories occasionally happen but are not guaranteed or even timely. Horror series, after all, do not rely on Halloween in order to be horror. The chances are, though, if an episode is all about Halloween, the protagonists are probably young.
Here are five must-watch tales of kid-friendly Halloween horror from TV anthologies.

If you’re a Silent Hill fan going through the newly released Silent Hill 2 Remake, you’re well-versed in how much the series loves throwing its characters into the most oddball and surreal moments when they least expect it.
Whether it’s things like the UFO ending that all the games have in some shape or form, or the random Elevator Quiz that James Sunderland is suddenly thrust into while riding an elevator in Brookhaven Hospital, Silent Hill devs are experts at making not just characters question their sanity, but the players too.
The Elevator Quiz in particular is sprung at you at a seemingly very random moment. You might feel tempted to skip over it because it feels too difficult to solve but don’t worry.

Over on the JoBlo Horror Originals YouTube channel, we talk about horror movies and TV shows all year long – but that doesn’t mean that the “spooky season” building up to Halloween isn’t a special time of the year for us. I may watch horror movies all year, but for me October is a month-long horror marathon where I try to pack as many horror movies into each day as possible. Halloween is my favorite holiday, and it’s the day when I make sure to watch the likes of FleshEater (1988), Murder Party (2007), The Hollow (2004), Trick or Treat (1986), and Trick ‘r Treat (2007). And maybe something involving Michael Myers. In anticipation of the Halloween festivities, several of our JoBlo Horror Originals staff members got together to give some horror movie recommendations – and you can watch them reveal their Halloween viewing picks in the video embedded above!

Almost twenty years ago, viewers of the Project Greenlight reality TV series got to watch as John Gulager was hired to direct the creature feature Feast for a producing team that included Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, and Wes Craven. Feast went over well enough that Gulager was brought back to helm back-to-back sequels, Feast II: Sloppy Seconds and Feast III: The Happy Finish. Since then, he has gone on to direct Piranha 3Dd, Zombie Night, and Children of the Corn: Runaway. His latest movie is the action thriller Seven Cemeteries, which was just given a theatrical and digital release today, October 11th, and on Amazon it’s available to rent for the price of $6.99 or purchase for $14.99. To help you decide whether or not Seven Cemeteries is a movie you’d like to check out, we have the trailer embedded above.

Get ready for Halloween! CakeWorthy has once again teamed up with Disney for some fantastic new fashions. This time Halloween is the theme and we have pieces that reflect the old 1952 “Trick-or-Treat” special and the Haunted Mansion! Both are my favorites!
These are dropping tomorrow, August 30, 2024!
Let’s take a look!
The first row starts off with a Haunted Mansion themed shirt. We can see icons from the attraction including the stretching room gargoyle and the floating candelabra.
Next we have a black cardigan with Mickey ghosts.
The third piece is a Donald Duck hoodie. He’s dressed as the devil and the hoodie is bright red with horns!
Finally we have an Aop t-shirt that has characters from the 1952 “Trick-or-Treat” special including the ghosts, which you rarely ever see! I love it!
The second row starts off with a flannel featuring a Mickey Mouse vampire.
Then we move...

A few months ago, we got the release of the fifth film in WB/Legendary’s MonsterVerse saga, Godzilla x Kong: The New Era. These films have attempted to somewhat reinvent the traditional Kaiju film for Western audiences, with our mighty monster heroes being called Titans. While the franchise arguably stumbled out of the gate with director Gareth Edwards’ coolly received Godzilla, the saga has steadily grown in popularity, and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was a big hit. But how do the films stack up against each other? Let’s take a look with our MonsterVerse Movies Ranked List!
Godzilla (2014)
Audiences were pretty hyped for Gareth Edwards’ 2014 Godzilla reboot, with awesome early trailers that used Ligeti’s Requiem II from 2001: A Space Odyssey, promising the most intense Kaiju movie to date. It didn’t really work out that way, with many complaining about how dull the film was,...

Late Motörhead guitarist Fast Eddie Clarke is the subject of a forthcoming 320-page biography and a 4-cd box set, both arriving September 6th via BMG.
Make My Day: The Rock ‘n’ Roll Story of Fast Eddie Clarke was penned by rock journalist Kris Needs with Clarke’s widow Mariko Fujiwara. The book follows Clarke’s life and career from his formative years in the burgeoning UK rock scene, through his legendary run with Motörhead from 1976 to 1982 and his subsequent hard rock/Aor band Fastway and beyond.
“Mariko and Eddie’s closest friends provide detailed insights into Eddie’s life, including growing up in Twickenham, topping charts with Motörhead, overcoming personal problems, finding happiness with Mariko and becoming the smitten co-owner of Cookie the Maltese-Shihtzu cross,” reads the book’s press release.

We found out last year that the 1986 rock ‘n roll horror film Trick or Treat, one of my all-time favorite movies, will be getting a Blu-ray and 4K Uhd release from Synapse Films. They were originally aiming for a Halloween 2023 release, but since they missed that month they’re now aiming to get the Blu-ray and 4K out into the world by Halloween 2024 – and things are looking promising, as the case art and list of special features have now revealed!

While it may have followed Seinfeld as Larry David's second major TV series, Curb Your Enthusiasm has the most unique voice of any TV series of the modern era.
While set almost entirely in Los Angeles, Curb has a very New York-centric and Jewish sensibility. And at the center of it all is Larry David, playing a probably-not-that-exaggerated version of himself.
The show started in October of 1999 as a one-off HBO special, meant to depict the return to stand-up comedy of Larry David, best known at that point as the co-creator of Seinfeld.
He was playing a version of Larry, who is independently wealthy yet seemingly never far from a confrontation about something small.
It soon became a surprisingly long-running comedy series, as its final season launched in February of 2024, nearly 25 years after that special.

Squid Game: The Challenge consists of 10 episodes, with the first five released on November 22 and the remaining four on November 29. The season finale will air on December 6, revealing the winner of the $4.56 million prize. The challenges in Squid Game: The Challenge closely resemble those in the original series, with controversial moments like injuries during the Red Light, Green Light game and disagreement over carving an umbrella shape. The upcoming episodes leading to the finale will feature a marble game, new twists compared to the original show, and increasing tension among the contestants. The unpredictable nature of the competition makes it a unique and interesting social experiment.
After the South Korean television series Squid Game became Netflix's most-watched show in 2021, the idea of turning the popular series into a reality show arose. And two years later, audiences welcomed Squid Game: The Challenge on small screens with high hopes. It is...

Tales of musicians who sold their soul for fame are common enough, Crossroads, Trick or Treat, Dark Roads 79 and The 27 Club are just a few examples. The Devil Went Down to Islington is a little different, however. It tells the tale of a music teacher who makes a Faustian bargain while drunk, only to panic when he realizes what he’s done.
It actually opens like a bizarre action film with Father Crowley using switchblade crosses to fight a pair of masked figures who are attacking a panicked man. He defeats them, but in the end Satan claims another soul.
John Robertson Has had a morning from hell, and he hasn’t even sold his soul yet. He fails to save his cat from the garbage truck, then an Ofsted inspector shows up,...

The new Dcu is embracing the weirder aspects of DC Comics. Ragman is unique DC villain with mystical powers, fitting right into some of the more supernatural projects. A Ragman project can draw inspiration from a famous spy-thriller series.
When DC Studios co-ceo James Gunn announced plans for the first slate of the Dcu, he included a range of movies and TV shows that touch upon different genres. Among the new series like Lanterns, Paradise Lost, and Booster Gold, genres vary from mystery to political drama. By delving into different genres for each series, Gunn and the showrunners can highlight what makes their individual stories stand out and what makes these characters unique. Given his directing credits and as the creator of HBO's Peacemaker, it's clear that James Gunn has an eye for making stars out of mostly unknown and somewhat unusual characters.

When I was a younger man, I used to love movie novelizations. These paperbacks would often add context to films, create whole new scenes, and give you a unique glimpse into the world of a movie that you might not get from watching alone. It was special. The movie novelization seems to be a dying art form these days, which is a shame. While they still exist, they don't seem as prevalent as they once were. Thankfully, we still have the classics. One such classic novelization is Curtis Richards' take on John Carpenter's "Halloween."
Published by Bantam Books in 1979, the novelization wasn't just a standard adaptation of Carpenter and Debra Hill's now-iconic script — it also added entirely new material, like a flashback that provides some background about the curse of Samhain, some stuff about cults, and more time with serial killer Michael Myers during his asylum days.

“And Just Like That…” star Sara Ramírez has addressed a magazine profile written about her that could be read as an attempt to use humor to take down the actor and their character on the Max show.
In the June 2023 piece by The Cut, writer Brock Colyar draws parallels between their “And Just Like That…” character Che Diaz and Ramírez that the actor doesn’t agree with.
“I am a human being, an artist, an actor,” Ramírez said in a Tuesday post to Instagram. “And we are living in a world that has become increasingly hostile toward anyone who dares to free themselves from the gender binary, or disrupt the mainstream.”
The Cut story also mentions Ramírez’s theory that perhaps the show’s team “was just being cheeky and trolling us all about how self-serious we get over the politics of representation on a fizzy sitcom.”

“And Just Like That” is back on Max for a second season, and it’s bringing some famous — and familiar — faces.
Kim Cattrall confirmed that she will reprise her role of Samantha Jones in an on-camera cameo. Her character communicated with Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) via text message throughout the first season, including Mr. Big’s funeral and the Paris finale.
A slim and trim John Corbett will return as Carrie’s former fiance Aidan Shaw as she moves on from the death of her husband.
“Sex and the City” fans will also be thrilled that Candice Bergen will reprise her role as Carrie’s former editor Enid Frick. Julie Halston will also be back as socialite Bitsy Von Muffling, who is as delightful as her name.
Of course, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon are back as Charlotte York Goldenblatt and Miranda Hobbes, Carrie’s longtime BFFs.
