Here Are All of Our Best & Worst of 2014 Editorials

Published

on

A couple weeks ago Bloody Disgusting joined the rest of the Internet for a mandatory look back at the highs and lows of the year that was. I’ve asked enough people at this point to say the feedback I’ve gleaned from my fellow film geeks regarding how good the year was for horror movies has been a mixed bag, though I personally can’t imagine labeling a year that brought us films like Under the Skin, Housebound and The Babadook as disappointing.

Last year was especially good if you’re fond of freaky television like American Horror Story: Freakshow, or the kinds of video games that make you want to sleep with the lights on. There were even some great books, assuming you’ve been trained in the lost art of reading.

I don’t mind that 2014 was such a polarizing year for fans of the horror genre, because that means we all have different opinions about it. If you’d like to soak up some of our opinions, I’ve compiled every one of the bajillion Best & Worst editorials my fellow staffers and I spent hours slaving away over hot computers to make for easy perusing. Enjoy!

‘Curse of the Where Wolf’ Bites Into August Release With Trio of Werewolf Theatrical Screenings [Exclusive Preview]

Published

on

Curse of the Where Wolf

Larry Chaney‘s hairy misadventures are continuing in the sequel graphic novel Curse of the Where Wolf from creative team Rob SaucedoDebora Lancianese, and Jack Morelli, and its author is celebrating with a trio of horror’s greatest werewolf films. 

The Curse of the Where Wolf hits shelves on August 7 from Encyclopocalypse Publications.

That coincides with the launch of a theatrical screening event in Houston, Texas, featuring a trio of seminal werewolf flicks turning 45 this year: The Howling on August 7, Wolfen on August 14, and An American Werewolf in London on August 21.

Each screening features a “werewolf in film” presentation as well as a book signing from Where Wolf author and River Oaks Theatre artistic director Rob Saucedo.

In the new graphic novel, “Being a werewolf sucks. Reporter Larry Chaney wanted to be a hero. Instead, he became a werewolf. Now, caught between incredible new powers and a desire to eat everything (and everyone) in sight, Larry must find a cure for his curse. Or die trying.”

“With Where Wolf, I wanted to tell a whodunit set in a furry convention, so the story was pretty contained within a very specific setting and genre. With Curse of the Where Wolf, I wanted to celebrate everything I love about the possibility of comic books. Curse of the Where Wolf is a funny book, in every sense of the phrase, but it’s also an earnest look at a person’s struggle to become a better version of themselves, especially when the alternative is to become a literal monster,” Saucedo says of Curse.

The original graphic novel was previously serialized as the first webcomic hosted on Fangoria before being collected by Encyclopocalypse Publications in 2023 and has already been optioned for film, podcast, and television development ahead of launch by producers James Fino (“The Freak Brothers” for Tubi, “Rick and Morty” for Adult Swim) and Charles Horak (First Date for Magnolia Pictures).

Expect Larry to find himself in even weirder situations in the 362-page full color sequel; Saucedo has provided Bloody Disgusting with exclusive art pages from the upcoming graphic novel that showcase lupine humor.
