Joshua Leonard and Michael C. Williams, stars of the original 1999 The Blair Witch Project, will serve as executive producers on Lionsgate’s upcoming reboot, along with the first movie’s directing team of Eduardo Sánchez, Daniel Myrick and Gregg Hale.
Eh.. color us unimpressed ? Maybe it will for fine but that movie was made in a magic time when movies still felt like magic…
Could this remake be a little too late to make a difference??
It never seems to matter if people really are ready.. they keep coming..
And… another one is on the way.
Per Variety, it’s been revealed that Curry Barker has been hired by A24 to direct a reboot of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The feature film is separate from a Texas Chainsaw Massacre series that’s also in development at the studio by director JT Mollner. No specific details about Barker’s take on the story have yet been revealed, but it’s being described as a “reimagining,” suggesting it will tell a new story based on the original film from 1974.
Another new story..
Another new chainsaw massacre …
The original film is credited as being one of the ‘scariest of all time.’ And if that is the case, why do they keep redoing it repeatedly?
It was good!
There may be some spoilers here. Maybe not. That’s kind of the nature of this one.
First off, there are people far smarter than us—or at least people who say they are—who have already broken this film down and latched onto the meaning behind the title. Undertone isn’t just a name. It’s the entire point.
Our main protagonist, Evie, is the host of the Undertone podcast alongside Justin. The premise is simple enough: they’re playing ten anonymous audio files sent in by someone who refuses to explain who they are or why they sent them. Evie plays the skeptic, Justin leans into belief, and together they perform that balance for the show.
But as the movie unfolds, it becomes clear Evie isn’t really a skeptic. She’s hiding.
She’s masking fear, depression, and something deeper that she doesn’t want to confront. When she finds out she’s pregnant, the film quietly reveals another layer… this is not a joyful moment for her. It’s unwanted. And just like the recordings being forced into her life, it’s something she didn’t ask for but now has to face.
From there, the movie settles into a slow, uncomfortable rhythm. We’re introduced to distorted audio, demonic undertones buried in nursery rhymes, and recordings that feel wrong in ways that are hard to explain. It’s not about what you hear. It’s about what you don’t hear. The silence. The gaps. The suggestion that something is just beneath the surface.
At the same time, Evie’s mother is dying.
And this is where the movie starts to hit differently.
While her mother fades in the next room, Evie retreats into headphones, noise cancellation, and the world of the podcast. She’s drowning out reality while simultaneously immersing herself in something just as disturbing. It’s not just avoidance… it’s a form of coping. Or maybe it’s a form of surrender.
A lot of people have analyzed this film and pulled meaning from it. There are layers here, and most of them are subtle. But the last ten minutes? Subtle is gone.
The final stretch is chaotic. Loud. Disjointed. Almost overwhelming.
The movie has been quiet for so long, relying on tension and sound design instead of cheap jump scares. Then suddenly, everything breaks. It mirrors Evie’s emotional collapse as her mother’s death rattle fills the room. It’s uncomfortable, messy, and confusing… just like grief.
Everyone is going to walk away from Undertone with a different interpretation. But if you’ve ever cared for someone who was dying, this movie is going to land in a way that’s hard to shake. You hide from it. You distract yourself. You consume media that somehow reflects what you’re going through, hoping to find meaning in the pain.
That’s the undertone of this film… PAIN.
Evie isn’t a skeptic because she doesn’t believe. She’s a skeptic because she needs to be. Because believing means confronting everything she’s trying to avoid.
And in the end, loss doesn’t come cleanly. It comes with agony, confusion, fear, and despair.
This movie has all of it.
Like we said… we watched Undertone so you don’t have to. But honestly, you probably should.
It may not be the “scariest movie of the year” like every trailer claims these days, but it might be one of the most effective. And depending on where you are in life—whether you’ve experienced loss or you’re in the middle of it—the undertone of this film might hit you harder than anything else you’ll see this year.
The excitement is real right now. A brand new trailer dropped today for Clayface, and it’s got people talking in a big way.
This isn’t your typical DC rollout either. The film is directed by James Watkins and stars Tom Rhys Harries as Matt Hagen, a disfigured actor who undergoes a transformation that turns him into something far more terrifying than anyone expected. The budget is reportedly around $40 million, which is actually pretty modest by superhero standards… but in a weird way, that almost adds to the intrigue. This feels less like a blockbuster and more like a calculated risk. A horror-driven swing inside the DC universe.
And you can feel that immediately in the trailer.
What we’re seeing is full-on body horror. Clayface appears with what looks like bandages wrapping around his face like a mummy, cutting between strange flashbacks and moments that feel completely ungrounded. Then there’s that final shot… his face looks human for a split second before he swipes it downward like a glitchy computer program and it just dissolves into nothing. It’s unsettling in a way that DC hasn’t really leaned into before. This isn’t just dark… it’s uncomfortable.
What makes this even more interesting is that it doesn’t appear to be directly tied to Batman. From everything out there right now, Batman isn’t expected to actually show up. That said, this is still Gotham, and you can almost guarantee the presence will be felt through references, atmosphere, and the world itself. Honestly, that might be the smarter move. Let Clayface stand on his own and let the horror breathe.
And speaking of that… the timing couldn’t be better. An October release puts this right in the heart of Halloween season, and if DC plays this right with a steady rollout of trailers throughout the year, the hype could build in a very real way. This has the chance to pull in not just comic fans, but horror fans too… and that’s a lane DC hasn’t fully owned yet.
I’ll be honest, though… part of my excitement comes from something a little more personal. I’ve always liked Clayface. Going back to playing as him in Lego Batman: The Videogame on the Wii and Wii U, he was this big, goofy, fun character. Not the main villain, not the most popular… but memorable. And now seeing that same character turned into something this disturbing and serious… it’s kind of wild in the best way. It taps into that nostalgia but flips it on its head.
The movie looks great. It looks scary. And yeah… that $40 million budget might be a little scary too when you start thinking about box office expectations. It’s way too early to know how this thing is going to perform, but if the tone lands and the marketing keeps building like this, don’t be surprised if this ends up being one of the more talked-about DC releases in a long time.
This might be the one that quietly changes everything.
We watched Hive so you don’t have to.
It’s a Hive original… and boy, is it original.
Here’s a couple of spoilers, so be careful if you actually want to check out this seemingly low-budget horror oddity.
Hive a brand new horror-thriller starring Xochitl Gomez as Sasha, a teen babysitter who loses her charge at an idyllic playground. She must navigate a sinister, deceptive world as she confronts an insectoid entity controlling the children and snatching parents, forcing her to fight to escape a soul-crushing hivemind.
Hive became available to stream on Tubi April 17, 2026. Xochitl Gomez, Aaron Dominguez, and Tanya van Graan star in this horror filled film that is Directed/Written Felipe Vargas.
At its core, there’s a hive mind made up of rich, affluent kids living in a rich, affluent neighborhood. There’s definitely a cultural message here about how the wealthy may inflict pain on the working class or minorities. Mix that in with squishy, unsettling blood-and-guts moments and a few strange, graphic scenes of people meeting their demise—yes, including playground equipment—and you’ll start to get the picture.
Listen… we’re not recommending this one, but we’re also not telling you not to watch it.
Just don’t watch it alone expecting a good time. This is more of a group movie, where half the room is saying, “That was actually kind of a good idea,” and the other half is begging, “Please turn off this nonsense.”
Seriously, the trailer was good. The bad is the trailer is showing you some of the best material in the movie!
It’s a low-budget film for a low-budget night.
But you know what? The acting wasn’t horrible. The plotline wasn’t terrible either—more like a goofy version of the hive mind from Stranger Things. The commitment was there. The cast seemed genuinely inspired to lean into their roles, and that counts for something.
Still, despite that effort, we’re left with a “hive mind” concept that ends up being more boring than scary.
2.9 out of 5.
A bit weak on the dialogue… but kudos for the acting and the creative thought.
Sometimes horror gives us nightmares… and sometimes it gives us moments like this.
David Howard Thornton—the man behind Art the Clown—just pulled off one of the most bizarre and oddly heartwarming proposals you’ll ever see. While fully in character as the silent, sadistic clown, he got down on one knee and proposed to his girlfriend, Jada Christie… and she said yes.
Yeah… let that sink in for a second.
There’s something strangely perfect about it. A character known for pure chaos, brutality, and nightmare fuel somehow being part of a real-life moment built on love, commitment, and—believe it or not—joy. It’s the kind of contrast that horror fans live for. Dark meets light. Fear meets happiness.
Fans of Art the Clown know that David Howard Thornton brings a physicality and personality to the role that makes it unforgettable, even without saying a single word. So of course, if he’s going to propose, it’s not going to be ordinary. It’s going to be theatrical… unsettling… and somehow still incredibly genuine.
Jada Christie clearly understood the assignment.
It’s also very understandable if you would have said no!
Nicolas Cage And Osgood Perkins Are Officially Making A New LONGLEGS Movie: The LONGLEGS universe is set to expand, with Osgood Perkins and Nicolas Cage officially in production on a follow-up to the 2024 horror hit…
It was a good movie and the sequel have done right could be more of a prequel, and let’s be honest, Nick Cage was unrecognizable and frightening.
Faces of Death cost about $7 million dollars to make and made under $2 million dollars in his opening weekend it’s about 1600 theaters. Probably safe to consider the Flop but a modest flop, but with some very bad reviews..
But thanks to the Super Mario Brothers with some more huge numbers the American box office is rocking and rolling early that year..
It was never expected to soar high but horror fans not liking it much sure didn’t help.
It solidifies for good that when people hear about Faces of Death they’ll think about the 1970s and 80s macabre version as opposed to this new incarnation train wreck..
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie which is posting $18.7 million Friday on its way to a $71M three-day total at 4,284 theaters, off 46% week over week, will end up being the number 1 film for the weekend again..
FACES OF DEATH doesn’t stand a chance to get that big..
As a matter of fact, FACES OF DEATH has received little media attention.. little advertising.. little notoriety besides on horror sites or genre forums..
And those horror sites have not been too nice..
Bloody Disgusting wrote:
Smart commentary and a clever approach get Faces of Death off to a strong start, but it lacks the conviction to see its bolder ideas through to its forgettable and far too conventional end. Whereas watching the 1978 film felt like a rite of passage, this update superficially wades into ideas already covered more chillingly in films like Red Rooms.
Others have not been nicer..
It is getting a less than stellar opening reception on ROTTEN TOMATOES..
Faces of Death opens in 1,600 movie houses…
The Oscars broadcast this year has been getting some criticism for being a bit of a snooze. Long stretches of polite applause, safe speeches, and not a whole lot of memorable moments. But then Conan O’Brien showed up and briefly woke the entire room up.
In one of the few genuinely funny moments of the night, Conan popped up in a surprise bit playing Aunt Gladys. The gag was pure Conan. A ridiculous wig, exaggerated mannerisms, and that perfectly awkward delivery that only he can pull off. It was weird, unexpected, and for a few minutes the Oscars actually felt alive again.
The bit worked even better because it tied directly into the award that followed. The actress behind the character of Gladys ended up winning, which made the entire setup feel even more absurd in the best possible way. Conan leaned into the joke and milked it for everything it was worth, and the audience clearly appreciated finally getting something that didn’t feel overly scripted.
It was funny.. very very Conan..
Meanwhile, one of the big stories of the night was Sinners, which showed up again and again as envelopes were opened.
The film picked up several wins throughout the evening, including a major acting victory for Michael B. Jordan and multiple technical awards, making it one of the most talked about films of the ceremony.
But when it came time for the final award of the night, Sinners didn’t take home the big one. The Oscar for Best Picture ultimately went to Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another, which ended up being the night’s biggest winner overall.
That’s the strange math of the Academy Awards. A movie can dominate the conversation all night and still watch the biggest prize go somewhere else.
But if people are being honest about what they’ll remember from this broadcast, it probably won’t be the Best Picture announcement. Of all the moments from the night, Conan O’Brien’s bizarre Aunt Gladys intro skit might end up being the most memorable thing that happened. In a ceremony that sometimes felt like it was drifting along, that was the moment that actually woke the room up.
