Charlie is ready to take the stage in the upcoming horror comedy film Cannibal Comedian from writer/director Sean Haitz (Big Top Evil, Mangrove Slasher 2, Area 5150).

A twisted blend of gut-busting laughs and terrifying thrills, Cineverse and Scream Team Releasing have acquired North American distribution rights to this slasher flick that promises to push the boundaries of horror and humor in an unforgettable cinematic experience with a fresh and unique voice.

The news was first reported by Deadline this afternoon.

Written and directed by Sean Haitz (Big Top Evil), Cannibal Comedian tells the story of a psychopathic cannibal who is fed up with his lack of ambition and takes a stab at stand-up comedy in an attempt to chase both his dreams and his victims.

The film stars Aaron Prager (Haunted House of Pancakes), Austin Judd (Big Top Evil), and Robert Dunne (Criminal Minds) with appearances from horror veterans Allen Danziger and Edwin Neal,...

Fall in love with Art the Clown all over again when Damien Leone‘s record-breaking Terrifier 3 streams on Screambox February 14!

If you’re not already subscribed to the Bloody Disgusting-powered horror streaming service, this Screambox Starter Pack highlights ten terrifying titles to tide you over until Terrifier 3.

Project Wolf Hunting

Project Wolf Hunting is a hyper-violent South Korean genre bender that packs action, sci-fi, horror, and thriller aspects into a gory mashup of Con Air, The Raid, and Resident Evil. According to writer-director Kim Hong-Sun, the production went through 2.5 tons of blood — enough to make Art the Clown blush.

The high-octane gorefest is set aboard a cargo ship transporting dangerous convicts who orchestrate an escape attempt against the heavily armed guards. But the fugitives aren’t the most dangerous thing aboard the ship, as below deck there lurks a superhuman killing machine dubbed Alpha.

For more hyper-violence, Screambox has Blood Feast,...

One of the things I’m most proud of doing here in the horror world is co-creating the “Horror Buddies” with Horror Decor, inspired by the WWF “Wrestling Buddies” of my youth. Along with artist Matt Ryan, we launched the popular line way back in 2013 with icons including Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees, but all good things inevitably come to an end.

Eleven years after we originally launched the line, Horror Decor has announced this month that they’re officially discontinuing the “Horror Buddies” line at the end of this year.

The company explains, “We have always tried to come up with something new and exciting that no one else was making. Unfortunately, there are now a lot of other companies doing something similar. Horror Buddies are expensive and time consuming for us to produce as we make them all by hand. While it’s been a good run, the...

1989 was the year director J.R. Bookwalter’s debut feature, the zombie epic The Dead Next Door (which Sam Raimi not-so-secretly had a hand in), made its way out into the world – and it also happens be the year when his follow-up feature, the “dark, splatter-drenched” oddball comic book homage Robot Ninja (watch it Here) was released. Thirty-five years later, Robot Ninja has now received the novelization treatment and the result, Robot Ninja: The Official Novelization by Damien Casey, is now available from Encyclopocalypse Publications! Copies can be purchased at This Link.

Shot in Ohio for $15,000, with David DeCoteau credited as an executive producer, Robot Ninja features cameos by Burt Ward (best known for playing Robin in the ’60s Batman TV series) and legendary scream queen Linnea Quigley and has the following synopsis: Leonard Miller (Michael Todd) is a frustrated artist. His publisher (Burt Ward) and his agent (Mike Shea) are...

Last year, writer/director Justin M. Seaman brought us a sequel to his 1989-set slasher The Barn (check out my review Here, get the movie Here)… and now he’s working on wrapping up the trilogy with a film appropriately titled The Barn Part III! The Barn and The Barn Part II (get that one Here) featured genre icons like Ari Lehman (who played young Jason Voorhees in the original Friday the 13th), legendary scream queen Linnea Quigley, drive-in critic Joe Bob Briggs, Diana Prince (a.k.a. Darcy the Mail Girl), Troma’s own Lloyd Kaufman, and Hellraiser star Doug Bradley. The Barn Part III is also going to feature some familiar faces, as the cast includes Children of the Corn‘s Courtney Gains and Kelli Maroney of Night of the Comet and Chopping Mall!

In case you need a reminder, The Barn told the following story: Its Halloween...

Encyclopocalypse Publications and Shout Factory Partner for Chopping Mall Novelization: "In a thrilling development for horror fans and bibliophiles alike, Encyclopocalypse Publications has joined forces with Shout Factory to novelize the cult classic 1986 film Chopping Mall. Produced by the legendary Roger Corman, Chopping Mall has been a mainstay of the horror genre.

Since acquiring the rights to Roger Corman's library in 2018, Shout Factory has been exploring innovative ways to bring these classic films to a broader audience. This partnership with Encyclopocalypse Publications marks a new chapter in that journey.

The novelization of Chopping Mall will be penned by author Brian G.

But none of them ever gave me that 'creeped out' feeling I was seeking until I saw the cover...

As far as I’m concerned, director Jim Wynorski’s 1986 film Chopping Mall (watch it Here) ranks up there as one of the most entertaining horror movies of the ’80s, which is the decade that brought a lot of my favorite horror movies into the world. It’s also a movie that doesn’t seem to get referenced often enough, and doesn’t get as much respect as it deserves – even if James Wan wants to remake it and Shout Factory TV aired it for 24 hours straight on Black Friday. So I’m glad to see that Chopping Mall is getting some love from the folks at Encyclopocalypse Publications, who have announced that they’re teaming up with Shout Factory and author Brian G. Berry for a Chopping Mall novelization!

Written by Wynorski and Steve Mitchell, Chopping Mall has the following synopsis: Some people will kill for a bargain… and...

With Halloween just around the corner now is the perfect time to revisit two slasher classics, The Barn and The Barn Part II, both now streaming on Screambox as SVOD exclusives, thanks to Terror Films.

Justin M. Seaman‘s 2016 horror movie The Barn is a retro throwback horror movie that takes you back to 1989.

“The Barn is a love letter to monster movies and the campy decade where they reigned supreme, that’s as fun as it is bloody!” wrote Daniel Kurland back in 2016.

In the film…

“It’s Halloween 1989, and best friends Sam and Josh are trying to enjoy what’s left of their final Devil’s Night before graduating high school. But trouble arises when the two pals and a group of friends take a detour on their way to a rock concert, finding an old abandoned barn and awakening the evil inside. Now it’s up to...

Halloween is almost here and Screambox has revealed the new films that are joining the horror streaming service in October, including Shaky Shivers, More Brains! A Return to the Living Dead, HeBGB TV, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, and more!

More Brains! A Return to the Living Dead exclusively joins Screambox’s extensive collection of horror documentaries on October 3.

Russo, and the final interview with director Dan O’Bannon.

Tune in to the Screambox Exclusive horror-comedy HeBGB TV on October 13. For fans of V/H/S and Wnuf, the hyperactive anthology about a multidimensional cable box has drawn comparisons to Pee Wee’s Playhouse, Goosebumps, Rick & Morty, and I Think You Should Leave. Do...

It’s the summer holidays, so what better time for the House of Mouse to release the latest live-action remake of one of their most beloved tales to the Disney+ streaming service? Yes, The Little Mermaid will be making a big splash in September!

Starring Halle Bailey, Jonah Hauer-King, Melissa McCarthy, and Javier Bardem, the film follows the same basic plot as the animated version, complete with songs. The Little Mermaid may have struggled at the box office, but it will likely find its natural home and plenty of fresh eyeballs on streaming when it debuts this month.

Elsewhere in September, Ahsoka continues rolling out the latest arc of the Star Wars saga, while Marvel’s Groot will be back for a fresh batch of animated shorts. What trouble will the little tree find himself in next? We’re excited to find out, but that’s not all she wrote for Marvel fans this month,...

Seaman explains, “I’ve spent the last decade building and marketing the world of The Barn to all the fans who have made the series what it has evolved into today. Over the past year, I’ve had countless people ask if I had any plans to make any awesome merchandise for The Barn Part II like I did for the original, and although I did make some merch for Part II, I was secretly pouring my free time and energy into creating the follow up Video Game and Board Game.

“So now is your chance to get involved, be a part of the games, and help make each one of these endeavors as great as possible! Depending on how much is raised,...

The Bloody Disgusting-powered Screambox is home to a variety of unique horror content, from originals and exclusives to cult classics and documentaries. With such a rapidly-growing library, there are many hidden gems waiting to be discovered.

Here are five recommendations you can stream on Screambox right now.

The Barn

Before The Barn Part II streams exclusively on Screambox on May 26, catch up on the 2016 original. The Barn stands out among the glut of ’80s slasher throwbacks because it’s not satirical or a send-up; the unapologetic love letter approaches the well-trodden material with a refreshing earnestness. Capturing not only the style but also the spirit of his influences, writer-director Justin M. Seaman taps directly into horror fans’ nostalgia while introducing an imaginative mythology with ample heart in a charming package.

At its core, the film is a coming of age tale about a teenager who doesn’t want to grow...

A while back, we heard that writer/director Justin M. Seaman was plotting a sequel to his 1989-set slasher The Barn… and now we have the best possible sort of update to share: The Barn Part II is now available on Blu-ray and DVD! Copies can be purchased on Amazon, or you can get a signed limited edition version of the release from Scream Team.

In case you need a reminder, The Barn told the following story: Its Halloween 1989, best friends Sam and Josh are trying to enjoy what’s left of their final Devil’s Night before graduating high school. But trouble arises when the two pals and a group of friends take a detour on their way to a rock concert, finding an old abandoned barn and awakening the evil inside. Now it’s up to Sam and Josh to find a way to protect their friends and...

Stars: Drew Marvick, Lexi Dripps, Lloyd Kaufman, Ari Lehman, Linnea Quigley, Sable Griedel, Doug Bradley, Justin M. Seaman, Caden Holmes, Jedediah Giacchino, Tanya R. Seaman | Written and Directed by Justin M. Seaman

Finally, after a wait so long people were wondering if it would ever happen, The Barn Part II, Justin M. Seaman’s sequel to 2016’s The Barn has finally arrived after a run of festival screenings and some limited theatrical showings. The question is, as with any long-delayed sequel, can it recapture what made the original so popular?

It certainly gets off on the right foot as Troop Leader Plums and his scouts sitting around the campfire fill the viewer in on the basic plot of the original as well as a few things we’ll need to know for the sequel, before finding out the hard way the stories were all true.

A year after that Michelle,...

It took more than three years at steadily declining asking prices that started at $2.995 million and, in the end, a punishing hit to his pocketbook, but Phish front man Trey Anastasio at long last sold a secluded, celeb-pedigreed cottage cleaved to a steep, wooded cliff above the Hudson River in New York State’s sleepy and quietly swank Snedens Landing enclave, about an hour’s drive due north of Midtown Manhattan, for $1.83 million. Not counting carrying costs, improvement expenses and real estate fees, Anastasio took a bank account brutalizing $870,000 loss on the property he bought almost a decade ago, in September 2009, for $2.7 million from Oscar, Emmy and Golden Globe nominated “Sopranos” star Loraine Bracco who’d purchased the two-acre river-side spread in 1989 with her then husband Harvey Keitel from 1975 Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn.

Following its release on DVD (as well as a video game and board game based on the film), The Barn has now been unleashed on a special edition Blu-ray that's brimming with bonus features that are all treats and no tricks:

Lurking within pages, displayed on the big and small screens, and at home on the airwaves, the horror genre thrived last year. 2016 was packed with great genre offerings, and although it's difficult to filter through the creepy contents of such a banner year for the genre, I forced myself to choose the moments that stuck with me the most... and still haunt my nightmares.

Green Room: Never did violence feel more real onscreen to me this year than the scenes in Jeremy Saulnier’s Green Room. The third feature film from the Blue Ruin and Murder Party director is ripe with palpable frights in its depiction of a vicious battle between a punk band and neo-Nazis led by Patrick Stewart’s calculating Darcy. You can practically feel your sweaty palms wrapping around a broken fluorescent tube as the Ain’t Rights prepare for their most important performance yet as...
