We’ve profiled David Romero‘s work a few times here on Bloody Disgusting, shining the spotlight on his uniquely terrifying Jurassic Park, Thirteen Ghosts and Friday the 13th artwork.

Romero is back at it with a new series of “Ghosts” that he recently tweeted out, three paranormal entities that were inspired by Ghostbusters – but taken to a new level of terror.

“I was very inspired by Ghostbusters for this one,” Romero tweeted in response to a comment over on Twitter. “At least, how I remembered the ghosts being like creepy and fun.”

Romero’s ghosts are fleshly monstrosities that are downright Lovecraftian in design, but you can definitely see that Ghostbusters inspiration bleeding through. Particularly with “Ghost 3,” which looks like a twisted new take on Slimer. “Ghost 1” and “Ghost 2” remind more of The Thing than Ghostbusters, however, looking like otherworldly body-horror nightmares.

‘A Man in the Woods With an Axe’ – First Look at ’80s Throwback Slasher [Exclusive]

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.

Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.

Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.

Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.

“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”

Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.

From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
