Best Horror Movies Streaming on Amazon Prime Video in October 2022

New DVD release
Keep your warm-colored lights and green pine trees. For some of us, October is the most wonderful time of the year. You can smell it as autumnal leaves drifting across the grass; you can hear it as children laugh in their most beloved Halloween costumes; and you can see it with the cornucopia of horror movies to watch. Aye, horror flicks are the most important part of the season to some. For 31 days, you don’t need an excuse to indulge in the wicked and the weird, and to hopefully scare yourself silly. But in an age of streaming, and…

Amsterdam Review: When Christian Bale Can’t Save You

New DVD release
As quirky, messy, and undisciplined as the work of director David O. Russell can be, when he nails his material—which to be fair is more often than not—he can really get at the heart of human relationships and bigger thematic concerns with great humor and empathy. See Flirting with Disaster, Three Kings, and a good chunk of American Hustle, for prime examples of this. On the other hand, when Russell drops the ball (Joy, anyone?), the results can be tedious at best and unbearable at worst. His first film in seven years, Amsterdam, falls somewhere on the spectrum between the…

Hellraiser Review: Reboot Is a Real Pain to Watch

New DVD release
The original Hellraiser explored the outer limits of pleasure and pain in fascinating, grotesque ways. Hulu’s 2022 reimagining of the Clive Barker classic, however, is simply painful. It takes the most surface-level aspects of the original story and gnarls them into a bloated, forgettable modern horror slog that fumbles the series’ mythology. In broad strokes, the movie follows a bunch of supremely annoying twentysomethings as they run from an otherworldly evil, screaming at each other incessantly in an ear-splitting attempt to suss out what’s happening to them at any given moment. They act like complete idiots, and it’s incredibly hard…

Hellraiser: How the New Movie Reimagines Cenobites and the Hellish Puzzle Box

New DVD release
 If you aren’t sure what a Cenobite is, David Bruckner, director of the new Hellraiser, has the answer—“It’s an interdimensional BDSM thing that shoots chains at you from an ancient labyrinth.” It sounds outlandish but is actually astonishingly accurate.  The original Hellraiser (1987), written and directed by Clive Barker, is forever a classic horror hall-of-famer. It centers around a mysterious puzzle box that, when used, summons the Cenobites— a sadistic group of hell dwellers who take pleasure in torturing their unfortunate summoner for eternity. This new Hellraiser film will be the 11th installment of the franchise. “I think a lot…

Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons – Exclusive First Look at When Robin Meets Superboy

New DVD release
For a brief, glorious moment in the comics, Damian Wayne and Jon Kent were the next big thing in the DC Universe. Then Jon got aged up and sent to space, and Damian went off to Kumite Island to fight his grandma and they got split up. Oh well, that’s comics for you! In case you can’t tell, some folks are a little broken up about Super-Sons, the comic that followed young teen Superboy and Robin and was utterly delightful, ending. But fortunately for those people, there’s a new chance to see Jon and Damian goof off: Batman and Superman: Battle…

Edgar Wright’s Surprising Top Gun: Maverick Connection Revealed

New DVD release
The original Top Gun from 1986 remains memorable not just for its thrilling depiction of aerial combat and its effective propaganda for the American armed forces. It’s also a great soundtrack movie, filled with hits such as “Highway to the Danger Zone” by Kenny Loggins, “Take My Breath Away” by Berlin, and, of course, Jerry Lee Lewis’s “Great Balls of Fire” and the Righteous Brothers’ “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling,” as performed by Tom Cruise and Anthony Edwards. So when producer and co-writer Christopher McQuarrie was crafting the sequel Top Gun: Maverick, he knew he had to include some great…

Hellraiser 2022: Release Time, Where to Watch, and How to Stream the New Reboot Online

New DVD release
“We have such sights to show you.” That promise may come from the Cenobite priest known as Pinhead, who clearly knows a thing or two about pain, but we cannot help but follow. We want to see those sights, as presented by author and director Clive Barker in 1987’s Hellraiser and its many sequels. By the time Hellraiser: Revelations and Hellraiser: Judgment were released, the pleasure had largely given way to pain, and yet we still watched. So it’s good news to hear that Hellraiser is being rebooted and reimagined, this time with The Night House and The Ritual director…

Why There Hasn’t Been a Great Salem’s Lot Movie

New DVD release
Stephen King’s second published novel, ‘Salem’s Lot, arrived in hardcover in October 1975 and was King’s next step toward transforming himself from an obscure Maine writer to a pop culture phenomenon. His first novel, Carrie, had sold modestly in hardcover, but the paperback edition of the book took off, selling more than one million copies in its first year of release. Sales were also helped by Brian De Palma’s 1976 movie adaptation, which was not just a box office hit but yielded Academy Award nominations for stars Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie.   And the paperback edition of ‘Salem’s Lot…

Christian Bale Says Method Acting as Thor 4 Villain Would Have Been “Pitiful”

New DVD release
It’s hard to think of many actors more serious and respected than Christian Bale. The Welsh actor has a history of working with some of the most respected filmmakers in the business, starting with his breakout in Steven Spielberg’s Empire of the Sun at just 13 years old. Since then, Bale has earned praise and awards for his intense and mercurial performances in movies such as American Psycho, The Big Short, and The Fighter, the last of which earned him a Best Supporting Actor Oscar. In pursuit of his art, Bale has been willing to put his body on the…

Significant Other Is Not the Horror Movie You Think It Is

New DVD release
From Dusk Till Dawn is a film about some bank robbers who kidnap a pastor and his family. Then about half an hour into it, you realize you’re watching a completely different movie altogether. Significant Other is a very different film from From Dusk Till Dawn, but it’s one that will similarly surprise audiences. “When somebody asks us what the movie’s about, we just tell them it’s about a couple that goes camping in the woods, and something bad happens to them,” says Robert Olsen, who directed alongside Dan Berk. “It is one of those films where there’s just this…

The Best Horror Movies to Kick Off Your Halloween Season

New DVD release
We all have our own Halloween traditions. Decorating the house, dressing up like monsters, trick or treating, apple bobbing, throwing toilet paper at people’s roofs or, even just putting on a warm sweater and getting hot chocolate on the go – it’s all part of the autumn fun. Spooky season has to start somewhere, and just like Christmas, it often kicks off with a movie. If you’re looking for suggestions of how to ease into Halloween month, here are the movies Den of Geek writers are drawn to as the nights get shorter and the blankets get snugglier. Let us…

Who Is the Real Villain of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever?

New DVD release
The latest trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has very much pitched Namor as the leading antagonist of the movie. Every battle sequence previewed in the small selection of clips sees the Atlantean king as the aggressor in Wakanda. Comic book fans are well aware that in the source material, his motivations and actions stray far from the conventional villain though. In the most recent issue of Empire Magazine actor Huerta Tenoch confirmed as much, saying “Latin-Americans are always the bad guys in Hollywood movies. And now we are the heroes — or an anti-hero, in this instance.” With the…

The Stephen King Movies That Never Got Made

New DVD release
There is perhaps no writer whose work has been adapted more to screens both big and small than renowned author Stephen King. Literally dozens of King’s novels, novellas, and short stories have been made into theatrical motion pictures, limited TV series, or streaming movies, ranging from classics like Carrie, The Shining, The Dead Zone, and The Shawshank Redemption to more recent milestones like It and The Outsider. Some, like ‘Salem’s Lot, The Stand, The Shining, and It, have been adapted more than once. Along the way, there have also been many King adaptations that never actually made it to the…

The Best ’80s Horror VHS Cover Art

New DVD release
Don’t get me wrong, streaming is great. You can’t complain about the convenience of pulling up a movie without having to leave your bed. But there’s one thing that we’ve lost in our post-rental store age: cool movie covers. Sure, Netflix will display algorithmically designed thumbnails, and trailers for movies play above Redbox kiosks. But gone are the days of the crinkly Disney clamshell or the lenticular image of Jack Frost shifting from a smiling snowman to a Shannon Elizabeth-attacking beast.  As that last point indicates, no genre is hurt more by the end of the rental store than horror.…

New DVD release
This article contains MCU spoilers Ryan Reynolds has become quite the social media influencer, producing countless videos to promote Aviation Gin, Wrexham Football Club and now… Deadpool 3!

While the video might have teased the fact that Deadpool will definitely be entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe in its third instalment, it also…

The Best Alien Horror Movies Ranked

New DVD release
As we look out into the great black emptiness of space, we are reminded of the question posed by the Italian physicist, Enrico Fermi- “Where is everybody?” Is life as we understand it a freak chemical fluke, never to be repeated in all of the great cold infinity above us? Or is it in fact an inevitable outcome of a relatively common set of circumstances, resulting in a universe teeming with life and civilisations, and if so, will we ever get to meet them? And if and when we do encounter life that evolved under another sun, with intelligence different,…

Deadpool 3: The Problem with Bringing Back Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine

New DVD release
If you know anything about Wolverine, you know this: he’s the best at what he does, but what he does isn’t very nice. And if you know anything about Hugh Jackman, you know this: he’s (among the) best at what he does, and what he does is very crowdpleasing. So it’s great that he’s back as Wolverine for Deadpool 3, right? After all, Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have made it clear that their adventure, set years before Logan, won’t undo Logan’s sacrifice. And anyway, if you don’t like dead superheroes coming back to life, then X-Men—whose roster includes multiple characters…

HBO Max New Releases: October 2022

New DVD release
Things are going pretty, pretty well for HBO and HBO Max at the moment thanks to the smashing success of Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon. With its list of new releases for October 2022 though, HBO Max appears ready to up the ante even more. The headlining title on HBO Max this month is undoubtedly The White Lotus season 2 on Oct. 30. Mike White’s freshly-Emmy-winning comedy looked to be a one-off after season 1. But cooler heads prevailed and the series is now returning in an anthology format. What will season 2 look like? Guess we’ll…
