Upcoming Horror Movies That Will Scare You This Halloween

September 25, 2014 By Fred Mitchell Leave a Comment

September is almost over and October is right around the corner. You know what’s October most famous for, right? Halloween, of course. And what do we love most about Halloween (besides trick or treating and lots of candy)? It’s the season when a lot of horror movies are released. We already have a few favorites that we’re dying to see but we want to share with you some of the most anticipated upcoming horror movies of this year and 2015.

10. The Babadook

What’s a Babadook, you might ask? It’s a fictional monster created especially for this upcoming horror movie. The storyline is simple: the movie is about a mysterious bedtime story that begins to haunt a mother and her son. We’ve seen the trailer and it looks really scary. It’s got us curious and we will definitely going to see it. The movie was shown at the Sundance Festival and has already received some excellent reviews from critics. The official release date is November 28.

9. Horns

You might recognize the lead actor from the upcoming horror movie called Horns from an obscure little movie called Harry Potter. That’s right, Daniel Radcliffe stars in this adaptation of Joe Hill’s novel. Joe Hill is actually the son of the master of horror himself, mister Stephen King, so we’re guessing his son has inherited a bit of talent on how to scare the bejesus out of us. This upcoming horror movie is about a guy who wakes up one day with horns on his head. The movie will be released on October 31.

8. Annabelle

You remember The Conjuring, right? It was one of the best horror movies of last year. Well, if you liked that one you will be probably love Annabelle because it’s a sort of a prequel to the events that happened in The Conjuring. It’s one of the most anticipated upcoming horror movies of 2014 and we’re certain it won’t disappoint. The film tells the story of a young man who gives his wife a creepy doll, possessed by a satanic force. The trailer looks pretty scary and we can’t wait to go see it on the 3^rd of October.

7. Exists

Blair Witch Project was one of the scariest movies ever. One of the upcoming horror movies on our list is Exits, directed by the same guy who directed Blair Witch Project, Eduardo Sanchez. It tells the story of a group of friends who find themselves face to face with a horrifying bloodthirsty creature from the woods. The movie is set to be released on October 24. Go see it, the trailer looks really good.

6. Tusk

Justin Long is known for his romantic comedies but Tusk is anything but romantic. It tells the story of Wallace Bryton who is after strange people to tell their stories. He encounters a man named Howard Howe and things begin to take a terrifying turn. Tusk has already received some favorable reviews from movie critics and from the look of its trailer we think it will be a pretty scary movie.

5. Extraterrestrial

There are plenty of upcoming horror movies we’re excited to see and Extraterrestrial is one of those movies. From the trailer it looks like a really cool episode of X Files and we love the X Files. There really haven’t been that many horror movies about aliens lately and this one could be it. The movie will be in cinemas from October 17.

Other upcoming horror movies worth mentioning are Jessabelle, Pyramid, Ouija, The Town That Dreaded Sundown and Catch Hell. Any other upcoming horror movies you’re looking forward to see this Halloween?

6 Upcoming Stephen King Movies

September 24, 2014 By Fred Mitchell Leave a Comment

Is there anyone out there who hasn’t read at least a novel by Stephen King? If there is, we’re pretty sure everyone has seen at least a movie adapted from a book by the master of horror. The first movie based on a book by Stephen King was Carrie, directed by Brian De Palma in 1976. It has achieved cult status and it’s still considered one of the best Stephen King movie adaptations. We want to take a look at the upcoming Stephen King movies because there are few that are being produced as we speak.

1. It

I remember seeing the first incarnation of It when I was very young. It was a three-part TV movie that scared me to death. I used to have nightmares every night after seeing the evil clown Pennywise. When I got older I read the book and it’s way more profound and terrifying. Now, rumors have it that True Detective director Cary Fukunaga will be making two movies based on the Stephen King novel. They are already working on a script and we’re dying to see the result. It will probably start filming in 2015.

2. Rose Madder

Rose Madder is one of my favorite Stephen King novels. It’s one of the least known one and, in my opinion, one of his best. Stephen King is more terrifying when he writes realist fiction because there’s nothing scarier than human nature and Rose Madder delivers one of the creepiest book character ever. I was super glad to find out that it’s going to be one of the upcoming Stephen King movies. In the hands of a visionary writer and director it could be made into a brilliant cinematic experience.

3. 11/22/63

Recent news announced that the critically acclaimed 11/22/63 will be made into a movie soon. This is one of those upcoming Stephen King movies a lot of people are waiting to see. The book is about the assassination of JFK and how a man tries to go back in time and try to stop it. J.J. Abram has said that his production company will turn it into a nine-hour TV series. So stay tuned to Hulu because that’s where this upcoming Stephen King movie will broadcast.

4. A Good Marriage

One of the upcoming Stephen King movies is A Good Marriage directed by Peter Askin and written by Stephen King himself, adapted from his collection of short stories Full Dark No Stars. The movie is starring Kristen Connolly, Joan Allen, Anthony LaPaglia and Stephen Lang. A Good Marriage will be released on October 3. We’ve seen the trailer and it looks great. P.S : read the short story.

5. The Dark Tower

This is one of the most anticipated upcoming Stephen King movies. It’s mostly anticipated by the fans of The Dark Tower books and it was rumored at one point that it will made into a movie by JJ Abrams, then announced as a trilogy. Some say that Javier Bardem was going to play Roland Deschain but we still haven’t heard any official confirmation. If and when it will be made, we don’t know for sure, but one thing’s certain: it could be an epic fantasy movie in the hands of a great director.

6. Cell

Another one of the upcoming Stephen King movies is Cell. The movie is already in post-production and it will star John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson. Cusack and Jackson have already appeared together in another Stephen King movie adaptation called 1408.

Other upcoming Stephen King adaptations are Gerald’s Game, Big Driver and Lisey’s Story. Are you as Stephen King fan? What book would you love to see made into a movie?
