The doors to the Hall of Killers have opened again, and this time you can forget the hockey masks, chainsaws and enormous men inexplicably capable of catching sprinting teenagers while walking at a leisurely pace. Our latest inductee is eight years old, beautifully dressed, exceptionally polite and would probably make a wonderful first impression on…
If there is one thing horror cinema has repeatedly taught us, it’s that nature doesn’t need much encouragement to start killing us. Sharks, spiders, crocodiles, birds and practically every other creature capable of biting, stinging or swallowing a human being have enjoyed their moment in the genre.

If the words “eccentric poodle breeder” don’t immediately sound like the foundations of a particularly nasty horror film, Breeder appears determined to change that.

There are few childhood activities better suited to becoming a horror movie than a sleepover. Everyone is awake long after they should be, somebody inevitably decides to tell a frightening story, every unexplained noise suddenly sounds like an intruder and, at some point around three in the morning, the entire house begins to feel completely…
Some horror villains announce themselves with an instantly recognisable mask. Others have a trademark weapon, a memorable catchphrase or enough sequels to require their own shelf in HMV. Andrew and Morris Garth have none of those things. What they do have is an enormous Gothic mansion, a network of underground tunnels, a spectacularly dysfunctional family…
It appears one of modern horror’s most recognisable demons is finally joining NECA’s Ultimate action figure line.
