Outside of Marvel or DC, it's tough to find a more impactful comic book superhero than that of Spawn. Created by former Marvel Comics superstar Todd McFarlane, "Spawn" served as one the big launch titles for Image Comics (which McFarlane co-founded back in the early 1990s). It was a massive, genre re-defining IP, with the comic book series still going strong to this day. "Spawn" was even big enough to get a big-budget, live-action movie adaptation from New Line Cinema in 1997.

Unfortunately, the film didn't do well critically or commercially. Ever since then, McFarlane has been highly protective of the Spawn character and understandably so, even holding off on discussing a new movie until roughly 2009. Later, in 2016, McFarlane revealed he had finished a script for a new "Spawn" film. A year after, the horror maestros at Blumhouse Productions signed on to produce the project, with McFarlane slated to write and direct the "Spawn" movie himself.

We are just days away from the August 13 online (and in person) premiere of Sweet Revenge, a short-form vignette from the Jason Universe that will officially bring Jason Voorhees back to the screen for the first time since 2009. It will also serve to introduce the brand new Jason Voorhees character design, which was unveiled with concept artwork earlier this year.

Makeup effects master Greg Nicotero helped the Jason Universe team redesign Jason Voorhees for upcoming merch and marketing activations like Sweet Revenge, with the goal to “maintain Jason’s original essence.” Horror Inc’s Rob Barsamian promised in a statement back in May that we’d be getting “a defined look and feel that takes Jason into his next chapter.”

Speaking with ComicBook.com, Greg Nicotero himself offered up some thoughts on the fresh new design at San Diego Comic-Con late last month. Nicotero explains, “They said, ‘We want to reimagine him.

After creating the Thanksgiving faux trailer for the Robert Rodriguez / Quentin Tarantino double feature Grindhouse back in 2007, Eli Roth wanted to make an entire feature out of faux trailers, a project he called Trailer Trash. Trailers he teased for that included Nascar Dog, Bear Witness, and Farmageddon, plus collaborations with Edgar Wright, Robert Rodriguez, Peter Berg, Howard Stern, and Greg Nicotero, among others. Sadly, Trailer Trash never happened – but we did get a Thanksgiving movie eventually. And today, a new Roth faux trailer has dropped online! It’s called The Piano Killer and it will be playing in theatres with the bonkers splatterfest Jimmy and Stiggs, but you can watch it right now in the embed above.

Note that the faux trailer for The Piano Killer ends with the promise that the film is coming in 2042, a nod to the fact that it took seventeen years for the Thanksgiving movie to get made.

2025 marks the 45th anniversary of the release of one of the most popular horror movies ever made, Friday the 13th. Last year, the Friday the 13th franchise rights holders at Horror Inc. announced that they were launching the Jason Universe, which would encompass “new Friday the 13th activations that will span a wide range of platforms from entertainment, games, immersive experiences, merchandise and more to be announced @JasonUniverse13 on social media or by visiting the official Jason Universe website.” As part of the celebration, Horror Inc. has teamed up with Angry Orchard Hard Cider to produce a 13 minute short film called Sweet Revenge – and while preparing to bring Jason Voorhees back to the screen, they also brought in legendary special effects artist Greg Nicotero to give the character a bit of a redesign. An image of Nicotero’s Jason has been going around for a few months, and now Nicotero...

Greg Nicotero, the makeup wizard famous for his work on the TV franchise The Walking Dead, is also the visionary artist behind some of the gnarliest special effects you've ever seen. His groundbreaking technique has turned him into a major presence in the horror genre, which is likely the reason he was selected to breathe new life into one of the most iconic killers in movie history. Jason Voorhees has been dormant for some time, but now he's woken up with a new look — a transformation that can be credited to Nicotero.

Nicotero spoke to Comic Book recently at the San Diego Comic-Con, where there were plenty of announcements regarding Voorhees, and the new horror franchise known as the Jason Universe, from Friday the 13th LLC and Horror, Inc. The artist's first contact with Voorhees came via 1993's Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday, ironically a sequel that doesn't...

For four seasons, jack of all trades Greg Nicotero (writer, director, producer, FX artist, etc.) teamed up with the Shudder streaming service to bring us the anthology series Creepshow, a continuation of the franchise George A. Romero and Stephen King began with the 1982 film Creepshow and the 1987 sequel Creepshow 2. We’re waiting to hear if there’s going to be a season 5 of that series – but while we wait, AMC Networks announced that Nicotero and Shudder are working on an unscripted horror competition series called Guts & Glory. It has been revealed that Guts & Glory is set to debut with a two-episode premiere on Tuesday, September 9 on both Shudder and AMC+ in the U.S. and Canada. The remaining four episodes of the six-episode series, which features an integrated sponsorship by Hyundai, will drop weekly on Tuesdays.

This year, horror streaming service Shudder celebrates a decade of bringing genre fans films/TV worth screaming about. In the last ten years, the streamer has grown from a small niche service to a widely popular brand with a dedicated base of subscribers that continues to break viewership records. Why, just last year, Shudder exclusive, Oddity, placed as Dread’s best horror film of 2024. That’s quite the achievement.

So, how has Shudder managed to retain such a loyal fanbase while growing to new heights? As Variety reports today, it has everything to do with a team made up of horror fans themselves, one that prioritizes creative talent over algorithm-based content.

Said Shudder senior VP of programming and acquisitions, Samuel Zimmerman, “When Shudder first started, I was given a lot of support. ‘You’re the curator of this, because Shudder is meant to feel hand-picked, programmed for people who love the genre.

Those looking for a bit of Western flair in the next season of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon are in for a treat. Over the weekend, during the Sdcc festivities, Collider’sSteve Weintraub sat down to speak with the five folks closest to the production —Scott M. Gimple, David Zabel, Greg Nicotero, Norman Reedus, and Melissa McBride — and received some intriguing intel regarding the formatting structure of what will serve as the title’s penultimate set of episodes. Eager to share his love for what he referred to as a “f***ing great” season, Reedus was the first to liken the next part of Daryl (Reedus) and Carol’s (McBride) journey to “a Western.”

Happy to fully break down what the leading star meant, series creator Zabel opened up about the influences that he and his fellow writer and producer, Jason Richman, used as their northern star. With the...

Ten years after its launch, horror streamer Shudder has grown and retained a loyal audience. The secret? Backburning trends and analytics in favor of the personal taste of a dedicated team of fanatics.

“For a lot of people, horror is personal. It certainly is for me,” says Shudder senior VP of programming and acquisitions, Samuel Zimmerman, who has an encyclopedic knowledge of horror movies. “When Shudder first started, I was given a lot of support. ‘You’re the curator of this, because Shudder is meant to feel hand-picked, programmed for people who love the genre.’ As we’ve grown, sticking to that ambition has been really important, because it shines a light on who we are as a team.”

Shudder started as a niche streaming service launched by AMC Networks midway through the run of the flagship channel’s massive success with “The Walking Dead.” Originally, the platform was focused...

While the Jason Universe has announced everything from a new Jason Voorhees mask to an attraction at Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights, fans have been clamoring for one main thing, a new Friday the 13th movie. Well, Jason fans were offered a glimmer of hope at this past weekend's San Diego Comic-Con, where it was revealed that a new Friday the 13th game and film are in early development. The Jason Universe panel also debuted a trailer for the forthcoming "vignette" Sweet Revenge, which features an adult Jason Voorhees hacking and slashing. At long last, everyone's favorite hockey masked mama's boy may be staging a comeback!

It's been 16 long years since Jason last graced the big screen in the 2009 Friday the 13th reboot. Meanwhile, slasher heavyweight franchises like Child's Play, Scream, and Halloween have all seen reboots and even TV shows. The Comic-Con Jason Universe panel included Horror Inc. Vice...

2025 marks the 45th anniversary of the release of one of the most popular horror movies ever made, Friday the 13th, the movie that launched my favorite franchise, and one that I feel is underrated, as it’s a great film that often gets overshadowed by its sequels. Last year, the Friday the 13th franchise rights holders at Horror Inc. announced that they were launching the Jason Universe, which would encompass “new Friday the 13th activations that will span a wide range of platforms from entertainment, games, immersive experiences, merchandise and more to be announced @JasonUniverse13 on social media or by visiting the official Jason Universe website.” Now, they’ve shared some information on what’s ahead for the franchise at a San Diego Comic-Con panel, unveiling a teaser trailer for the vignette Sweet Revenge from writer/director Mike P.

Your love and support have made every moment worth it. This finale isn’t just an ending; it’s a celebration of what we’ve all shared together.

The dead rose today in Hall H at San Diego Comic Con, where the key members behind AMC’s hit series, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, took to the stage to unveil the official Season 3 trailer for attendees. The two leading stars of the show — Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride — were joined by the leading creative team — Scott M. Gimple, David Zabel, and Greg Nicotero — to give fans a taste of what’s to come when the next set of episodes arrives on screens later this year. After two incredibly successful seasons that have seen Reedus’ titular character fighting the undead abroad in France, the next chapter will follow Daryl and Carol’s (McBride) trek across Europe to Spain.

In the freshly dropped trailer, we see Daryl and Carol setting off on a journey with a newfound friend (Stephen Merchant) who lends them passage towards the U.S. Along the way,...

The end of the road is finally in sight for what has perhaps been the most successful offshoot to come from the universe of The Walking Dead. Today, during their panel at Sdcc, the stars of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon — Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride — took the stage in Hall H alongside creatives David Zabel, Scott M. Gimple, and Greg Nicotero. Together, the group broke the bittersweet news to the audience, revealing that while Season 4 is on the way, it will be the final chapter in what has been an exciting exploration into the lives of two of the franchise’s most beloved characters.

What we can expect from Season 4 is more action going down in Spain, with production in locations like Bilbao, Galicia, Andalucía, the Segovia region, Toledo, and Community of Madrid set to get underway later this month. Considering there’s just one week left in July,...

It's been a decade and a half since The Walking Dead premiered in 2010, and almost three years since the original show concluded in 2022. However, the universe keeps thriving with several spinoffs.

The AMC hit zombie series has spawned multiple spinoffs, but now only two of them remain: The Walking Dead: Dead City, which follows Maggie and Negan's adventures in New York, and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, which continues the fan-favorite character's adventures in Europe. The two series have received mixed reviews, but have continued to be widely popular. Ahead of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3's premiere on Sept. 7, AMC has just confirmed at San Diego Comic Con at Hall H that Carol and Daryl's adventures will officially continue with the fourth and final season.

The new season will premiere shortly, and the cast and executive producers will do their best not to keep fans waiting.

Shudder shared a first look at its new, unscripted horror-based competition series “Guts & Glory” at San Diego Comic-Con. The show will premiere Sept. 9 on the platform and AMC+ with its first two episodes, with new episodes set to release on Tuesdays.

AMC has renewed The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon for a fourth and final season.

Daryl Dixon may be heading to Spain for the next season of his Walking Dead spinoff, but it will be his last adventure — in this iteration, at least.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is one of the franchise's most popular recent projects, and Greg Nicotero just provided some positive news regarding its chances of being renewed. Having premiered in September 2023, the show has returned to our screens every year, with season 3 currently scheduled to be released on September 7, 2025.

With Daryl Dixon arguably being The Walking Dead's best spinoff yet, the future was already looking positive for the European-based series, and Nicotero's comments only make it look healthier. While at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, Screen Rant spoke to the franchise veteran, who was optimistic about the project's longevity.

Although he revealed there wasn't an exact plan, Nicotero mentioned that the protagonists' dynamic leads to so much story potential, meaning Daryl Dixon could go on for a long time, and with Daryl and Carol's long-awaited reunion happening in season 2, there is seemingly no end in sight for their relationship.

The Walking Dead's Greg Nicotero reveals if The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 will introduce Rick's forgotten family member from the comics. Daryl Dixon season 3 will see Daryl and Carol surviving in Spain. While they'll encounter new faces, the country was also featured in The Walking Dead: The Alien, a spinoff comic focused on Jeffrey Grimes, Rick's brother.

In an interview with ScreenRant's Ash Crossan during San Diego Comic-Con, Nicotero revealed Rick's brother had been talked about while developing Daryl Dixon season 3. However, the executive producer explained there hasn't "been any real interest" in seeing him appear yet. However, he doesn't rule out the possibility in the future. Check out what Nicotero had to say below:

Ash Crossan: The Walking Dead Universe is vast, and I feel like honestly a staple of Comic-Con, like every elevator I've gotten in for the last 13 years, there's a walker in there.

George A. Romero‘s first two Dead movies, Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, were quickly seen as horror classics. But the third film in his series, 1985’s Day of the Dead (watch it Here), had a tougher time gaining acceptance. Many fans saw it as a disappointment, the weak link. It took years for Day of the Dead to be re-evaluated and viewed as a classic. July 19th marked the 40th anniversary of the original release of this classic – and coinciding with the anniversary, Scream Factory announced (via Fangoria) that they will be giving Day of the Dead a 4K Uhd release! A release date has not yet been scheduled.

Written and directed by Romero, Day of the Dead has the following synopsis: The walking dead have taken over the world. Only a small band of scientists and solders are definitely known to remain, and...

Ice Nine Kills have released a short film for “The Great Unknown,” a new single inspired by The Matrix.

The horror-inspired metalcore act is comprised of vocalist Spencer Charnas, guitarists Dan Sugarman and Ricky Armellino, bassist Joe Occhiuti, and drummer Mike Cortada.

The band members stars in the video alongside Terry Kiser (Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood), Bill Moseley (The Devil’s Rejects), Paul Soter (Super Troopers), Joel David Moore (Hatchet), and special effects artist Christopher Nelson (Halloween trilogy).

The latest installment in the Ink cinematic universe is directed by Jensen Noen and written by Charnas, Soter, and Andrew Justin Smith.

“‘The Great Unknown’ optimizes aggression and melody in a format our core user base consistently engages with,” Charnas said in a statement. “This audio file represents a genre expansion protocol, targeting action and sci-fi verticals proven effective via cross-platform sentiment analysis. ‘The Great Unknown’ is designed to...

Remakes are often maligned among horror fans, but without them we wouldn’t have films like The Fly, The Thing, or The Blob. Granted, for all of the gems there are, there’s an equal measure of awful remakes as well. The line that separates the remakes between great and lackluster usually falls upon the director, their vision, and their intent for the new update. In the case of The Hills Have Eyes, it was original creator Wes Craven that saw an opportunity to update his gritty 1977 film after seeing the success of remakes like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in the early aughts.

After watching High Tension, Craven approached director Alexandre Aja and his screenwriting partner Gregory Levasseur about the possibility of updating his film with the caveat that it has a new approach and something worthwhile in justifying its existence in the first place. The collaboration between the horror...

The George A. Romero / Stephen King horror anthology Creepshow is one of my all-time favorite movies – and so is the Michael Gornick-directed sequel Creepshow 2, which I’ve probably watched even more times than its predecessor. I love everything about Creepshow 2, so I was very glad to hear the news that Arrow Video is giving the film a 4K Uhd release in the US, the UK, and Canada. The release date is September 30th, and copies can be pre-ordered through a variety of links (check out the list on Arrow Video’s Facebook page), including This One.

Directed by Gornick from a screenplay by George A. Romero (based on stories written by Stephen King), Creepshow 2 has the following synopsis: Join our old friend, the rotting Creep himself, as he introduces this horror anthology which presents gruesome looks at three tales of horror: a hit-and-run driver in “The Hitchhiker...

Creepshow 2 will bring three blood-curdling tales of terror to 4K Ultra HD on September 30 via Arrow Video.

The name Jason Voorhees used to instill fear in the hearts of campers everywhere, but after lying dormant for more than 15 years, he's not exactly everyone’s worst nightmare these days. Now, the iconic horror villain is set to return in a new Friday the 13th short film to help celebrate 45 years of body parts, machetes, and blood, but once you hear what it's about, the new film unfortunately seems like nothing more than a wild cash grab.

Per Variety, Horror Inc., owners of the franchise, will unleash a new short-form vignette later this year as part of their Jason Universe initiative to help celebrate 45 years of Friday the 13th. Titled Sweet Revenge, the short film is to be directed by Mike P. Nelson, and is said to be the "centerpiece of the franchise's bold 45th anniversary campaign." That all sounds well and good, and though Sweet Revenge promises to...

Some good news today for "Friday the 13th" fans as, for the first time in a very long time, we're getting a new film featuring Jason Voorhees. The only bad news is that it's a short film and not a feature film, but after more than 15 years without any movies in this franchise, beggars can't be choosers. I myself am one of those beggars, so I'll take what I can get.

As announced by Variety, Mike P. Nelson, of "Wrong Turn" (2021) fame, is set to direct "Sweet Revenge," a project -- one labeled a "vignette" -- featuring the famed Camp Crystal Lake killer of "Friday the 13th" fame. The short film hails from the folks at Horror Inc., who own the rights to the property, and is part of the ongoing Jason Universe, which launched last year. Though no specific plot details are available for the time being, the production is teasing,...

Mike P.

The film is produced by Horror, Inc., which owns the rights to the franchise.

“Sweet Revenge” promises to bring a fresh, intense weekend in the woods filled with Jason Voorhees-style horror. Nelson is not only directing but also writing and producing the film through his company, Rockford Road Pictures. Filming began recently, and fans will be able to watch the short on the Jason Universe YouTube channel.

It will also be available on a special site sponsored by Angry Orchard Hard Cider, which is partnering with the franchise.

This new short is part of a larger push by Horror,...
