Wicked Horror is the author of Why Possession Movies Have to Try Harder to be Different. Wicked Horror is the internet's only horror fan site for free original horror movies, news, review & more.

As much as slashers get criticized for being so simple and formulaic, they are different enough for the most part for fans to be able to watch one after another. The Prowler, April Fool’s Day and Sleepaway Camp all have very different, distinct styles and tones. Vampire films can get extremely different. Werewolf features often find themselves limited, but even they break out. Even the two biggest, American Werewolf in [...]

Horror is evolving as a genre. Although your local multiplex is still loaded with the usual contenders, look a bit closer and you’ll find the latest drama, thriller, or crime offering is closer to horror than you might expect. In this bi-weekly series, Joey Keogh presents a film not generally classified as horror and argues why it exhibits the qualities of a great flight flick, and therefore deserves the attention [...]

John Carpenter recently made an appearance on the Brett Easton Ellis Podcast. And when the American Psycho author asked the director to compare and contrast Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Friday the 13th Carpenter offered his unfiltered disdain for the latter. In so many words, he suggests that Friday the 13th was a Halloween knockoff that was made on the cheap. And he’s not exactly wrong. Director Sean S. Cunningham has been fairly transparent about his intentions in making the film. But, [...]

Last year, Eli Roth’s long-gestating cannibal shocker The Green Inferno finally hit theaters, after a lengthy legal battle. Set in the Amazonian rain-forest, the flick saw a group of naive young do-gooder types attempt to ingratiate themselves with the local tribes-people, only to discover they were, in fact, on the dinner menu. Part loving homage to Cannibal Ferox and Holocaust, The Green Inferno may have been tonally inconsistent–gross-out gore and violence [...]

When surveying history from a media-centric approach, it is too easy to fall prey to vast oversimplifications. In regards to horror cinema–-a genre that oftentimes sees fit to hold a mirror up to society at large–-it feels comfortable prescribing certain fears and anxieties to the people of any particular time and place. Just as those of the Victorian era were terrified by Bram Stoker’s Dracula and its warnings of homosexuality, [...]

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is being remade and nobody appears to be happy about it. I mean that’s usually how it goes with remakes, but this one really has people upset. Like Ghostbusters reboot upset. Usually projects like these tend to split fans down the middle, with some people looking forward to it and others outraged at its very existence, but I’ve yet to see anyone come out of the woodwork in [...]

Horror movies about Nazis are inherently problematic because Nazis represent an evil that is in many ways the distilled essence of all bigotry. Anti-Semitic, racist, homophobic, the Nazis were all of these things and enforced their beliefs on a grand scale. There’s no sympathy for them and even stories that use them as villains tend to raise red flags. One of the most uncomfortable movements within the horror genre is [...]

2012’s post-apocalyptic re-imagining of the cult classic Judge Dredd, the Karl Urban-starring Dredd, didn’t exactly light up the box office. Thankfully, for its legions of fans, the flick was gifted a second life on the home video market, reportedly selling nearly 800,000 copies in the first week of its US release. In spite of this, a sequel didn’t seem like the most viable concept, particularly given Hollywood’s reluctance to bankroll anything without a [...]

Friday the 13th is one of the biggest horror franchises of all time. But—and I think most fans would agree with this—it’s not necessarily known for being scary. Most fans wouldn’t say they’re scared of Jason. He’s too much of an icon for any dyed-in-the-wool fan to actually be afraid of him. He’s the face of the franchise, even if he’s masked.
