Finally, Lollipop Chainsaw has a release date, and it’s not too far away. Suda51′s next game, starring the sultry chainsaw-wielding cheerleader Juliet Starling and a helluva lot of zombies will be adding some much needed color to the zombie genre this June. It’s fitting, since Suda51′s last game, the incredible Shadows of the Damned, came out on June 21, a year before Lollipop Chainsaw.

It’s official. In case still had lingering worries that BioShock Infinite wouldn’t be coming this year you can go right ahead and massage those worries away. It was revealed earlier today the game will indeed be coming in 2012, and more specifically, on October 16, in North America. ““After BioShock, we had a vision for a follow up that dwarfed the original in scope and ambition,” said Ken Levine, creative director at Irrational Games. If the latest trailer is anything to go by, Infinite looks to be taking everything to a whole new level.

5 Look For BioShock Infinite This October

Irrational Games has been toiling away on BioShock Infinite for four years now, and with the game’s impressive showing so far, I think it could be as unforgettable an experience as the original was half a decade ago. Look for it in October for the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. READ MORE

Josh Schwartz’s film is described as a cross between Superbad and Adventures in Babysitting on Halloween night, Victoria Justice, Thomas Mann, Jane Levy and Thomas Middleditch all star.

The Secret World is a game I’ve been way too excited about for way too long. If you hang around here at all you probably already know that. Well, in the lull that is usually summer video game releases The Secret World will be making an appearance at the perfect time. June 19th of this year TSW will be releasing on the PC, and I will say goodbye to the sun until September. Originally slated (I hate that word so I’ll use projected) for April, upon the massive beta testing they decided to push it back to invest more time in development and making everything great.

Make sure if you haven’t that you sign up for the beta because in the coming months they’ll be opening it up a lot more than before. No more closed beta, a lot more open beta events. Try before you buy! I tried it, and just as I thought I love it. Can’t wait. READ MORE

I know this is going to shock you, but Dimension Films is moving their latest spoof sequel Scary Movie 5 from April 20 to a January 11, 2013 date. The move was expected as David Zucker has yet to go behind the camera. His involvement is still speculation, along with the casting of Anthony Anderson, Regina Hall and Kevin Hart.

No plot details have been revealed, but it would be safe to assume it’ll make fun of found footage horror. Too bad Scary Movie star Marlon Wayans took his talents elsewhere and is already doing a found footage spoof entitled Smart Ass. You snooze, you lose. READ MORE

A few weeks back a new horror title was revealed with striking similarities to Fatal Frame. Makes sense, since the game’s being developed by the same team behind the series, but this one comes with a fantastic twist: now the ghosts are in your house. Spirit Camera is an Alternate Reality Game (ARG) that uses the Nintendo 3DS camera to put the ghosts in the real world. This is an exciting evolution for the genre, but I’d like to ask that no developer ever makes a game that does this but replaces the ghosts with clowns. Seriously, don’t do that.

8 See Dead People In Your House With Spirit Camera This April

Spirit Camera follows a young girl names Maya, who has to break a curse that was given to her by a Woman in Black. To accomplish this, you’ll need to use a handy 16-page book called the Diary of Faces, which will almost definitely be as creepy as it sounds. Look for it to come out on April 13, or Friday the 13th (I see what you did there, Tecmo) Head past the break for some gameplay. READ MORE

Had you come to me a year ago, through a wormhole or time machine, or something like that, and told me I would be getting three Silent Hill games in one month, I would’ve called you a Time-Witch and immediately burned you at the stake. Then I would’ve laughed while pointing at your smoldering ashes because there is no way we’d ever get three Silent Hills in a month’s time. We’re lucky if we get one in a year, but three? No, I say. Not possible.

Remember how the first three months of the year were packed with amazing horror games, enough to throw even the most insatiable horror fan into a horror overdose-induced coma? Well, while this remains true, January is looking a little less appealing now that the Silent Hill HD Collection has been pushed back into March, to release alongside Downpour and Operation Raccoon City. No reason for the delay has been revealed just yet, but I hope it falls somewhere in the ‘extra polishing’ category.

IFC Midnight Slates Prison Riot Horror The Incident For May

Formerly Incident at Sans Asylum, The Ring remake producer Roy Lee is behind Alexandre Courtes’ The Incident, a violent new thriller starring Rupert Evans, Kenny Doughty, Unax Ugalde, Dave Legeno, Anna Skellern, Richard Brake, Eric Godon, Joseph Kennedy and Marcus Garvey.

Having had its world premiere at the Midnight Madness portion of the Toronto International Film Festival (read our extremely negative review), IFC Midnight acquired the title for limited theatrical release on May 4. VOD presumably will be a month before.

“George, Max and Ricky are in a rock band and waiting for their big breakthrough. Between small gigs and rehearsals they work in the kitchen of a high-security asylum for good pay at minimum risk – they have no physical contact with the inmates. One night just before dinnertime, a big storm shuts down the security system, the doors open and the lunatics break loose. Help is on its way and should soon arrive… they just have to survive until it does.” READ MORE

For a paltry $12.99 on PSN (€9.9 EU, £7.99 UK) or 800 Mutant Spring-Loaded Pompoms ($10) on XBLA you can kick monster hiney in AMY when it releases on Jan 10 for PSN and XBLA the following day.

Everything we’ve seen from the game so far points to it being an incredibly creepy game. If this sounds like your type of thing, and I’m sure it does, I suggest supporting it with your hard-earned money. Think of Amy, all alone, with no one to protect her. If you don’t get this game she will die, and that would make you a total dick. You don’t want that, do you? Oh, and head past the break for some creepy concept art. READ MORE

Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City is coming out on March 20, and now the month will also be getting Silent Hill: Downpour on the 6th. That’s two major horror games in a short amount of time, or three if you count Revelations the month prior, or four if you count the Silent Hill HD Collection on January 24. Is anyone else freaking out just a little bit? I’m glad I don’t actually give people presents for Christmas, because I don’t know how I could afford all these games if I was one of those giving people.

Downpour is no stranger to delays, so I hope it doesn’t get pushed back any further.

The Evil Dead Remake Gets a Release Date!

Last night got some extra story details on the Ghost House/Mandate Pictures and Sony/FilmDistrict Evil Dead remake which starts filming in New Zealand in March. Now the studio has announced the film’s official release date…

… April 12, 2013.

That’s actually not so bad when you consider the fact that they have yet to shoot the thing. There will be plenty of time for post-production and it’s not like they’d release it during awards season anyway. Just be glad it’s not getting dumped in January.

Fede Alvarez directs from his own screenplay co-written with Rodo Sayagues. Revisions were done by Oscar-winner Diablo Cody. The story centers on five friends holed up at a remote cabin where they discover a Book of the Dead with a demonic force unleashed possessing each until only one is left to fight for survival.

Deep into post-production via Lionsgate, the Ole Bornedal-directed horror starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Kyra Sedgwick, Madison Davenport, Natasha Calis will arrive in theaters August 31, 2012, a far cry from the original January 6 date.

“Morgan will star as a recently divorced father whose youngest daughter becomes strangely connected to an antique wooden box she purchased at a yard sale. As his daughter’s behavior becomes more erratic, the father senses a dark presence building until he discovers that the box was built to contain a dibbuk — a dislocated spirit that inhabits and ultimately devours its human host.” READ MORE

Piranha 3DD, which takes to a water park for the chaos, was supposed to arrive in theaters November 23rd of this year, while Amityville Horror, the official sequel, was to haunt cinemas in January.
