The Purge is one of those rare horror series — such as Adam Green’s Hatchet, for example — that seems to get better with each installment.

A now dying art for fans of the horror genre, the novelization once enhanced the experience for the carnage obsessed bookworm. Arguably a way for the filmmakers to further cash in on a movie, the novelization was also a way for the fans to extend their experience. As each page turned, the horror fan could read […]

Few tropes have been as long-lasting in horror as the killer doll motif. While vampire, werewolf and haunted house movies have had a tendency to fall in and out of fashion at random intervals, movies about deadly toys and murderous playthings have been trickling out quite consistently since the 1940s. From subgenre pioneer Dead of […]

The average moviegoer doesn’t think a lot about what goes into a film or who does what on it. They don’t really care. But they will notice certain names. If the director has his name above the title—as is usually the case with John Carpenter—or is at least prominently displayed on the poster, as was usually the […]

Full Moon Entertainment was never known for really making movies that were “of the time.” They weren’t relevant to current cultural issues.

Gothic Horror Movies That Broke from Tradition

Wicked Horror is the author of Gothic Horror Movies That Broke from Tradition. Wicked Horror is the internet's only horror fan site for free original horror movies, news, review & more.

Gothic horror has a longstanding tradition of being moody, melodramatic and—on film, at least—visually driven from its production design down to its costuming. When the silent era and the Universal monster movies established these things, they became extremely prominent in the development of a then-new medium. Gothic horror is a well that modern filmmakers continue to […]

Horror in the 1990’s was a very different thing from the ‘80’s.
