We really do try to bring you the best in ALL things horror at Bloody Disgusting, but sometimes there’s just too much to fit into one website. That’s where sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Tumblr, and even Pinterest come in.

We often use them post things like BD wallpapers for your computer and phone, derptastic horror memes, cool horror related products, and stories that for whatever reason just don’t make their way to our front page. There’s a whole lot you’re missing out on if you’re not following us outside of this site, read on to see where we’re active and how you can join in.
The BD Facebook page is home to tons of exclusive content, live chats (most recently with Lucky McKee), games, and almost 90k horror fans from around the globe. “Like” us and get in on the action.

If you like your news delivered in bite sized pieces and reading some occasional off topic banter, the Bloody Disgusting Twitter page is the place for you. We also post breaking news and exclusive stories before they hit the front page so you can always stay one step ahead of your friends.

Dev Patel’s ‘Monkey Man’ Is Now Available to Watch at Home!

After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.

You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!

Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.

Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”

“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.

She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
