In the wake of the Academy Awards and before the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards ceremony, James A. Janisse and Chelsea Rebecca from the popular YouTube channel Dead Meat have launched the Dead Meat Horror Awards, a brand new virtual awards ceremony that honors the best in horror. The ceremony is now available to stream in full on YouTube!
The categories include Best Stunts or Choreography, Best Digital Effects, Best Practical Effects, Best Kill, Best Supporting Performer, Best Lead Performer, Best Remake or Sequel, and Best Original Movie, with films honored with nominations and/or wins including The Deep House, Halloween Kills, Malignant, Last Night in Soho, The Night House, Psycho Goreman, Fear Street, Candyman, Antlers, Jakob’s Wife, Titane, and Slumber Party Massacre.
Bloody Disgusting’s own V/H/S/94, we’re thrilled to report, was nominated for two Dead Meat Horror Awards, including Best Kill and Best Remake or Sequel. The Shudder Original Movie won Best Remake or Sequel, with Janisse noting that it might be his favorite of the V/H/S films.

This year’s awards are presented by Bonnie Aarons (The Nun), Spencer Charnas (Ice Nine Kills), Danielle Harris (Halloween 4), Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street) and more.
Moon Studios dropped a new trailer during the Sony State of Play for their dark action-RPG No Rest for the Wicked, while also hinting at the long-awaited launch window for the full 1.0 release. The game, which has been in Early Access on Steam since April 2024, will be launching this October in full for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam, while versions for the Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 will arrive at a later date.
As a token of appreciation for supporters new and old, Moon Studios is offering an exclusive Early Access Founder’s Pack, a free limited edition bundle available for anyone who purchases the game on Steam prior to July 10, with rewards unlocking when 1.0 officially launches. PlayStation 5 users can receive the Early Access Founder’s Pack by pre-ordering the game once available, any time before launch day.
The Founder’s Pack includes:
- A New Secret Hideout: Spirit Cavern – The legacy of Moon Studios now lives inside No Rest for the Wicked, exclusively for Founders. A hand-crafted home that bridges both worlds.
- Sayer’s Vow: An all new Sword in the stone reserved just for the founders that only early adopters can extract in the game world.
- A Custom Founders Tag ensures players are clearly identified as early adopters.
- As a Founder member, players will get access to an exclusive Public Beta Test Realm reserved just for them, even after the 1.0 game launch.
As for the full 1.0 release, it will be a massive expansion of the core experience, introducing a staggering 60+ hours of new content, a new horde mode, powerful new weapons, bosses and enemies, new areas and a completely reimagined class system.
In No Rest for the Wicked, players take on the role of a “Cerim,” a member of a holy order imbued with mysterious powers, tasked with destroying the Pestilence, an ancient plague that has begun to consume the island Isola Sacra, itself already the site of great political upheaval and death.
