There's always a feeling when it's still summertime out. It's hot, it's dry, there's really no hope on the horizon. But at a certain point, that summer heat meets its match with the autumn wind. Even here in Southern California, once you feel it, you know exactly what is coming on the horizon. The

If you're a physical media enthusiast, you'll know that Trick Or Treat is high on the list of movies that sorely needed a release. Luckily enough, our friends at Synapse Films have delivered on that promise with an absolutely massive 4K UHD release of the 1986 film. It's limited to 6666 units for

The Pokémon franchise is usually filled with happy and joyous monsters that evoke memories of childhood for kids of the 90s, 2000s, and onward. However, there are a select few Pocket Monsters that don’t bring those cheery vibes. In fact, there are quite a few that bring out more sinister and
![The Strangers: Chapter Two Releases New Teaser Trailer, But Is It Too Little Too Late? [Fright-A-Thon]](https://thathollywoodshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/MV5BZTEwOTZiOWEtMWEyYy00NTczLTg5OWQtMTZmYTM0YWJjMjdlXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-660x294.webp "MV5BZTEwOTZiOWEtMWEyYy00NTczLTg5OWQtMTZmYTM0YWJjMjdlXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_")
The Strangers trilogy was a wild idea to start off with. It was a bit of mastery from Renny Harlin to convince a studio to give him the money and time to flim a trilogy of horror movies back-to-back-to-back, and after the first film came out earlier this year, we now have the second part releasing

I can hear the groans. The usual suspects whining about remakes, reboots, legacy sequels, requels, whatever you want to call them. But there's a light at the end of that tunnel. When you take a classic horror movie like the original Street Trash and you get a filmmaker who "gets it" like Ryan

Going into Hysteria! I was worried that it would end up like many other media regarding its depiction of heavy metal in the '80s. Yes, there were albums called The Number of the Beast, bands took advantage of the fact that the devil is scary to sell records, and people were scared of the unknown.

It wasn't that far after an announcement that we would get not one, but TWO Halloween themed video games that RetroRealms was announced. RetroRealms itself acts more like a hub where you can join either the Halloween game or the Ash VS. Evil Dead game or look around at trophies, achievements,

Southern California is the Halloween Haunt capitol of the world. They've got the best events like Halloween Horror Nights, Fright Fest, LA Haunted Hayride and others. We're pretty deep in the Halloween season, but I've been to all of the major haunts in SoCal and now it's time to rank them from
Casper Kelly's Buddy is a mind-bending journey into a very dark version of children's television. Back in 2014, Casper Kelly gave the world "Too Many Cooks," an 11-minute dive into aging television conventions that swam deeper into a twisted darkness the longer it went on. It seemed a fun inheritor
I remember seeing the trailer for The Dog Stars and having my eyes roll back in my head. Do we really need more post-apocalyptic stories when we're living in a real life apocalypse? Do we need another movie that has an analog for COVID-19 and the aftermath that had on our own society. Well,
The Lantern Corps is a tricky thing to bring to life. We saw that with the 2011 movie Green Lantern. But Lanterns manages to put DC's "space cops" in a gritty reality where having the ring isn't everything. Chris Mundy, Watchmen and Lost's Damon Lindelof, and comic writer Tom King weave a story of
