We've already done 40 other Halloween Heavy Metal tracks in past editions of Fright-A-Thon. But you know what? Halloween and heavy metal music go together. They both celebrate the darker side of life (and death). They also kick a whole hell of a lot of ass. If this list looks strange and doesn't

I'll get right to the chase with The Heretiks. The film does not screw around in the slightest. It might look and feel like a Disney Channel Original movie, but it adds in some serious gore, witchy vibes, and some interesting rules for said witchcraft. Kids get stabbed, fingers get broken, faces
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is a franchise revival that feels like it understands what made the original games so much fun. The gameplay is fast, frantic, and often delightfully violent, while the game throws a surprisingly large number of systems and mechanics at you. Thankfully, most of them feel
