Often times, a horror film has to take a moment or two to finally explain what’s been going on the whole movie. These exposition scenes are almost always eye-rollingly long and drawn out. READ MORE
Sinister arrives on Blu-ray and DVD today, February 19th. Both versions include audio commentaries, deleted scenes and multiple featurettes and it’s a rather more loaded disc than we’re accustomed to getting with many horror releases these days. READ MORE

This year, we’ve welcomed a lot of new writers to our home video review team and wanted them to get in on the year-end list action. The really neat thing about their picks is that out of all the submissions, nobody chose the same films for either category – plenty o’ variety on these lists. Check past the break for Patrick Cooper, Lauren Taylor, and Michael Erb’s Best & Worst Horror Films of 2012! (more…) READ MORE
I’m old and have two young daughters. Before kids, I used to go to the movies at least two times a week. Now, I almost never head out to the theater to catch a first-run movie. I do, however, get to attend a couple of film festivals each year. READ MORE

Directed and co-written by Scott Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose) and co-starring Juliet Rylance (Animal), Fred Dalton Thompson, James Ransone, Clare Foley and Michael Hall D’Addario, Sinister was well received by critics out of film festival screenings.

It was reported via French press late last week that more than 40 French theaters had pulled the theatrical release of Scott Derrickson’s Sinister. Why? Distributor Wild Bunch blames Paranormal Activity 4 (also produced by Blumhouse) and more than a handful of despicable, disrespectful, ignorant and disgusting theatergoers. READ MORE
Summit just released a new clip from the upcoming Sinister. I’m not saying don’t see the movie. Go see the movie! I’m just saying don’t watch this clip! I’m starting to worry that they’ve shared too much. READ MORE
Sinister hits theaters on October 12th. Ethan Hawke, James Ranson and Juliet Rylance all star in this super creepy film from Exorcism of Emily Rose director Scott Derrickson. READ MORE
Summit just released a super weird tracking image from the ever-so-popular Sinister, which followers the user’s mouse. Check it out inside. READ MORE
Summit just released three teasers from the upcoming Sinister and they’re actually kind of like the “American Horror Story” teasers in that the footage they show is heavily manipulated and not how it appears in the final product. Go see the movie, though I’m starting to worry that they’ve shared too much. You might want to skip these. READ MORE
Last night I attended a preview of Jason Blum’s Los Angeles haunted attraction, “The Blumhouse Of Horrors”. While what I saw wasn’t 100% finished, it was certainly impressive. It’s not so much a maze as it is a building full of haunts, characters, magic and smoke. I took a guided tour, which is not a VIP thing, it’s how the attraction is meant to be experienced since your guides are pretty creepy as well. There’s a lot of cool stuff to see (and feel – I know BD alum Brian Collins even got zapped). There’s also a neat feature that had the claustrophobic in me absolutely reeling. If you live in LA, and are a fan of haunted houses, I certainly recommend it. READ MORE
Summit has now released more than a handful of motion images from their highly anticipated Sinister. In the film arriving in theaters October 12, “Found footage helps a true-crime novelist realize how and why a family was murdered in his new home, though his discoveries put his entire family in the path of a supernatural entity.” READ MORE

In the film arriving in theaters October 12, “Found footage helps a true-crime novelist realize how and why a family was murdered in his new home, though his discoveries put his entire family in the path of a supernatural entity.” READ MORE
Summit just shared with Bloody a trio of clips from the ever-so-populoar Sinister. In the film arriving in theaters October 12, “Found footage helps a true-crime novelist realize how and why a family was murdered in his new home, though his discoveries put his entire family in the path of a supernatural entity.” READ MORE
Things get even spookier in a third motion image from Summit’s highly anticipated Sinister. In the film arriving in theaters October 12, “Found footage helps a true-crime novelist realize how and why a family was murdered in his new home, though his discoveries put his entire family in the path of a supernatural entity.” READ MORE

Man, a lot of TV Spots just hit the net. And guess what? Instead of making you click on three different articles (that is – if you’re in to all three films) we’re just depositing them here in this handy “Spot Check” edition of News Bites! First up? A brand new spot for Sinister that highlights some of the film’s best stuff. I liked the film but recommend not watching this if you’re already planning on seeing it. READ MORE
I love Seven Psychopaths. It’s not horror, it’s a crime comedy. But it is supremely gory. If you remember director Martin McDonagh’s In Bruges you know he doesn’t f*ck around. And, to put it crassly, this movie has a sh*tload more kills than that one (it’s also smart, funny and thoughtful). Thus, I feel like I can wholeheartedly recommend it to you. While it might not be scary, it’s certainly got more of the red stuff than most of the R-rated horror movies that have come out this year. I’ll fill you guys in with my review later this month.

Things get even spookier in this exclusive motion image from Summit’s highly anticipated Sinister. In the film arriving in theaters October 12, “Found footage helps a true-crime novelist realize how and why a family was murdered in his new home, though his discoveries put his entire family in the path of a supernatural entity.” READ MORE
One of Sinister‘s many strengths is its use of unsettling imagery. There are so many quick moments in the film that stick really with you. These moments are so deceptively simple that, on paper, they may not read as being incredibly striking. But their effect on the screen is undeniable. You’ll know what I’m talking about when you see the movie, some of the stuff in it is unshakeable! READ MORE
Summit’s Sinister plays Fantastic Fest this weekend (a few weeks ahead of its official release date on October 12th). While my review was heavily mixed on the film (favorable by a hair), Evan Dickson found a lot more to like. READ MORE
Things get spooky in the new red band trailer for Summit’s Sinister, which gives you a heavy dose of Mr. Boogie alongside an unnerving score. READ MORE
