While the Halloween Season has been underway for a couple weeks now, this week is a special one because it actually marks the official start of Fall. And Halloween is inching closer!

The next several weeks will be loaded up with far more horror than this week is set to deliver, but we’re still getting seven brand new movies – one of which arrives in theaters.

Here’s all the new horror releasing between September 20 – September 25, 2022!

First up, Bloody Disgusting has unleashed the Screambox Original mockumentary When the Screaming Starts today, the film now available for streaming exclusively on Screambox.

Fangoria’s Editor-in-Chief Phil Nobile Jr. raved that When the Screaming Starts “does for serial killers what What We Do in the Shadows did for vampires.”

Watch the official trailer for When the Screaming Starts below.

Directed by Conor Boru, When the Screaming Starts follows struggling journalist turned filmmaker Norman,...

“Malevolent” is the word Dennis (writer-director Scott Friend) uses to describe his estranged brother Roger (Will Brill). That’s quite the adjective without context, but one that quickly seems to fit as more details begin surfacing. There’s a medical book in their parents’ old home—which now belongs to them both equally—that Dennis’ wife Mia (Madeleine Morgenweck) finds defaced with a child’s drawings that make it seem Roger wasn’t happy to be getting a brother. Talk about where the elder sibling has been gleans the fact that part of his absence was spent in a hospital (we can only assume mental). He says it’s all in the past. That he’s a “new man” reborn. Mia didn’t know him previously, so he appears genuine now. Dennis has reservations.

What we learn very early in To the Moon, however, is that Dennis isn’t in...

To The Moon bears an intriguingly vague title. Space-travel sci-fi? Werewolves howling? Ralph Kramden’s recurring threat to Alice on The Honeymooners (my age must be showing from that reference)? Or an homage to those who boldly bare their backsides for amusement or social commentary?

Answer: none of the above.

What we get is an eerily suspenseful psychological thriller set in an isolated cabin in the woods, during a dreary winter. All movie buffs know that something wicked must that way come whenever any city folk or college kids head for such a setting. The legacy from decades of those films adds to the sense of looming menace, as we wonder exactly what is the other shoe, who’s wearing it, and when will it drop?

An obviously distressed couple, Dennis and Mia, head to his family’s really remote cottage for a few days of trying to heal a...

"Road to recovery, it's not… it's not a solo journey."
