While anything can be said about Tobe Hooper’s later career, one thing is fact – his 1974 film The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is one of the greatest motion pictures ever filmed. It helped inspire a genre, steering horror films away from dark castles and third world countries and into the reality of our own rural American backroads. Hooper unfortunately passed late last year, not too long after fellow horror filmmaker George A. Romero. As such, it was expected that this year’s Oscars would pay tribute to the two filmmakers during their annual “In Memorium” segment at the end of…

Hellraiser: Judgment, believe it or not, was a personal story for director and star Gary J. Tunnicliffe. The movie was something special he had imagined quite some time ago. And so when the studio offered him the chance to make a Hellraiser film, he quickly pumped out Hellraiser into Darkness, a seemingly more generic script. Tunnicliffe fought for Judgment to be made instead – ultimately it worked. While Judgment has since been released, and the story now unveiled, fans have still been curious about whatever Hellraiser into Darkness was about. Now Tunnicliffe has explained the whole story to Midnight’s Edge.…

Jordan Peele’s Get Out ended up becoming one of the biggest horror releases in 2017. As such, director Jordan Peele is constantly giving out more information about the movie – both in terms of production and what we can expect to see happen in the future.
