Sony Pictures announced the official theatrical release date for Screen Gems upcoming Until Dawn movie. The live-action adaptation is based on Supermassive Games hit interactive horror video game series of the same name.

Per Deadline, Sony Pictures confirmed that the highly-anticipated Until Dawn movie has now been scheduled to arrive in theaters next spring on April 25, 2025, which pits it directly against Ben Afflecks thriller sequel The Accountant 2. The film will also be debuting in the same month as other high-profile movies such as Warner Bros. A Minecraft Movie, Lionsgates Michael Jackson biopic Michael, and the Blumhouse thriller Drop. This date announcement comes after Shazam! director David F. Sandberg recently revealed that production on the upcoming horror drama had finally wrapped up.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil In Me is the fourth installment of Supermassive Games’ hit anthology series, and is referred to as the “season one finale” of the batch. In a lot of ways, its premise is the most traditional of the anthology: a group of five big personalities are cryptically invited by a mysterious person to stay in a creepy hotel in the middle of nowhere. And to up the ante, the hotel is replicated to match the site of serial killer Hh Holmes’ “Murder Castle”…what could go wrong?

The classic horror formula is there, which is no surprise given that Game Director Tom Heaton has previously mentioned that classics like The Shining and Halloween (1978) have heavily inspired the Supermassive team this time around. And based on the hour-long preview I had with The Devil In Me, Supermassive proves that it knows the genre inside and out,...

Supermassive Games has recently announced that the latest entry in The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me will be released on November 18, 2022. In addition to the recent announcement, I had the chance to preview some gameplay footage, as well as hear from Game Director, Tom Heaton, about the inspirations and influences that impacted the development of the game. Referred to as “the season one finale of the anthology”, The Devil in Me already looks to be an amalgamation of lessons learned from previous entries in the anthology and feedback from its playerbase, and the preview has left me eager to dive back into The Dark Pictures come November.

The premise this time around isn’t focused so much on a specific event in history or mythology, but draws inspiration upon a specific historic figure: H.H. Holmes. For those unfamiliar, Holmes is one of the most notorious serial killers in modern history,...

It’s April 26th, and that can only mean one thing for fans of Ridley Scott’s horror masterclass: Alien Day. In honor of Acheron, the far-flung moon otherwise known as Lv-426, and indeed the iconic sci-fi franchise itself, the next 18-to-24 hours will signal a raft of competitions and themed giveaways through 20th Century Fox, with a particular emphasis on the impending Alien: Covenant.

Although just when it seemed as though the stars would align for Alien: Isolation 2, Eurogamer has relayed a statement from The Creative Assembly in which the studio effectively debunks any and all rumors concerning a sequel. That chatter can be traced back to the latest edition of Official PlayStation Magazine (with a tip of the hat to PlayStation Universe), which fuelled rumors that The Creative Assembly was quietly preparing to fire up pre-production on Isolation 2 once Halo Wars 2 had shipped to retail.

Turns out that’s not the case,...

Today, the cult horror comedy April Fool’s Day celebrates its 30th anniversary. Written by Danilo Bach (Beverly Hills Cop) and directed by Fred Walton (1979’s When A Stranger Calls), the film follows a group of college students who spend spring break at their friend Muffy St. John’s family estate, unaware that the weekend will be filled with frights and unexpected surprises.

Released the same weekend as The Money Pit, April Fool’s Day became a modest success for Paramount Pictures, taking in $13 million during its three-week theatrical run and finding even more of an audience once it was released on VHS. Even though it has largely flown under the radar over the last 30 years, Walton’s slasher send-up with an Agatha Christie flair has remained a beloved cult film among genre fans and this writer in particular.

Looking back at the horror comedy, Walton discussed how his involvement...

Championship leaders Burnley weathered an early storm away at Leicester, taking a hard-earned point back to Turf Moor as the Premier League promotion race tightened up. Danny Ings cancelled out David Nugent’s first half penalty.

Leicester made a dominant start with French winger Anthony Knockaert testing Clarets keeper Tom Heaton after winning a corner. Opposition defenders had to block shots at will as the hosts had five attempts in the opening seven minutes.

Pearson’s Foxes made this early pressure pay when Jamie Vardy won a soft penalty before the quarter hour. The striker went down in between Ben Mee and Jason Shackell in the Burnley box and referee Andy D’Urso pointed to the spot.

Up stepped Nugent and converted his tenth league goal of the season, sending Heaton the wrong way. The Clarets later hit the woodwork through Ings when he glanced a Kieran Trippier cross against the post.
