After breaking through with her performance as Nikki in Curry Barker’s horror phenomenon Obsession, the actress has been cast as Rogue in Marvel’s forthcoming X-Men movie and is now heading into another genre project with Apple Original Films. Navarrette will star in the wonderfully titled The…
Six years after Maneater allowed us to discover that pretty much every problem in life can be solved by becoming an increasingly enormous bull shark and eating it, the wonderfully ridiculous action RPG is finally getting a sequel. Tripwire Interactive has officially announced Maneater 2, with Demiurge Studios working alongside Tripwire on development. Revealed during…
Last Slate Video has unveiled three new physical-media releases for the remainder of 2026, and there is plenty here for horror collectors to get excited about.

Sometimes horror audiences make their intentions wonderfully clear. You can spend hundreds of millions of dollars building cinematic universes, resurrecting established franchises and attaching familiar names to familiar properties, or you can apparently put a gigantic bright-orange unicorn into a deranged children’s television programme and watch people turn up. Casper Kelly’s Buddy has emerged as…
Some vampire films arrive with capes, castles and enough Gothic furniture to keep an antique dealer in business for years. Michael Almereyda’s Nadja took a rather different route.
