2023 was a solid year for horror films, and even still, there were plenty of gems that went criminally underseen. Fortunately, because horror fans are some of the most rabid (see: passionate) fans around, even movies denied multi-million dollar ad campaigns can still find their people through word-of-mouth praise, fan art, and obsessive gushing. "The Ruins," "Jamie Marks is Dead," "Swallowed," and "Midnight Kiss" director Carter Smith's latest feature film is also his best, which is why it's such a shame that "The Passenger" (read our review here) is only now picking up mainstream attention. A thrilling two-hander starring horror fan favorite Kyle Gallner and relative newcomer Johnny Berchtold, "The Passenger" is the spiritual successor to Robert Harmon's "The Hitcher," and just as brutal.
Berchtold's Randy is not just your average fast food worker, he might as well be invisible. He's passive to the point of enduring exploitation from everyone around him,...

Welcome to June, a hefty month for horror on streaming. As we rapidly approach the halfway point of 2023, this month’s new additions to various streaming platforms lean heavily on recent releases. That means an extra packed month, giving you plenty of time to catch up on many of 2022 and 2023’s biggest releases.
Here are thirteen noteworthy horror titles available for streaming in June 2023 on some of the most popular streaming services, along with when/where you can watch them.
Baby Ruby – Hulu (June 3)
Writer/Director Bess Wohl’s debut feature, Baby Ruby, uses psychological horror to put viewers in the shoes of a new mother unraveling after giving birth. Jo (Jumbo’s Noémie Merlant) exudes style and perfection. She’s an influencer with a blog so successful that she has a staff, including a close assistant. But her carefully curated idyllic life unravels when newborn Ruby enters the world.

Creepy, homicidal children have long been a staple of the horror genre. This week brings the release of brand new movie Children of the Corn, the eleventh entry in the long-running franchise. It comes on the heels of Homebound arriving on Screambox and the release of Roxanne Benjamin’s new movie There’s Something Wrong with the Children on VOD outlets.
Kids are always terrifying. This week’s streaming picks highlight just how unsettling they can be; there’s nothing sweet about these little homicidal maniacs.
As always, here’s where you can watch them this week.

The Good Son – Starz
Anyone familiar with Home Alone’s Kevin McCallister and his ruthless handling of home intruders likely won’t find it difficult to buy Macaulay Culkin’s villainous turn in this psychological horror movie. But Culkin turns up the terror here in a compelling way.

Wallace the Walrus
February has truly been a ride as Trace and I venture through the wilds of Weird Sex Month. After spending the last few weeks of January buried in films of the 2000-2010s with remake House of Wax (2005) and Crimson Peak (2015), February has been dedicated to the early 1980s with Videodrome (1983) and Possession (1981).
Now we’re up to 2014’s Tusk, Kevin Smith‘s second foray into horror. The film stars Justin Long as Wallace, a d-bag podcaster who travels to Canada to mock a boy who cut off his leg on the internet. When the story falls through, Wallace travels to a remote mansion to meet with Howard Howe (Michael Parks), a recluse with plenty of stories and…odd interests.
When Howard goes missing, it’s up to his girlfriend Ally (Genesis Rodriguez) and Not-See Party podcast co-host Teddy (Haley Joel Osment), along with a bizarre French...

Subway Screaming.
After closing out January with a revisit of the Dark Castle slasher remake House of Wax, Joe and I settled into our birthday month with Videodrome, kicking off four weeks of ‘Weird Sex’ films! Next up is Andrzej Żuławski‘s 1981 classic Possession, which is finally available to stream on Shudder again!
In the film, Anna (Isabelle Adjani) reveals to her husband, Mark (Sam Neill), that she is having an affair. Mark is devastated, and seeks out Heinrich (Heinz Bennent), the man who cuckolded him, only to receive a beating. After a series of violent confrontations between Mark and Anna, Mark hires a private investigator to follow her. Anna descends into madness, and it’s soon clear that she is hiding a much bigger secret — one that is both inexplicable and shocking.

Long Live The New Flesh, Bitch!
And just like that, we’re into February. After starting the new year with a redo of our episode on The Perfection, followed by AIDS metaphor Safe, del Toro’s Gothic Romance Crimson Peak and slasher remake House of Wax, Trace and I are settling into our birthday month with four weeks of ‘Weird Sex’ films.
First on the docket: David Cronenberg‘s iconic body horror film Videodrome, which just celebrated its fortieth anniversary last week. In the film, Max Renn (James Woods) works at a Toronto TV station that programs sexy, violent content and he’s always on the hunt for new fare. Enter Videodrome: a pirated signal originally thought to originate from Malaysia (but is actually from Pittsburgh) that is basically snuff.
The trouble is that Videodrome is also a weapon, causing physical changes in the body of viewers (tumors), as well as vivid hallucinations.

In the last 10 years, “There’s Something Wrong with the Children” director Roxanne Benjamin has established herself as a vital new voice in independent horror on both the producing (the “V/H/S” anthology films) and directing fronts, while also pursuing a parallel career as an episodic television gun-for-hire on shows like “Riverdale,” “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin,” and “Nancy Drew.” “It’s like having two different careers that just happen to overlap,” she told IndieWire of her dual life as an indie auteur and network TV journeyman. “In one you’re the architect and in the other you’re the contractor.”
Yet Benjamin has found that trying on different directorial personalities in an effort to mimic the preexisting styles of various television programs has informed her work in features. “Each show has a style and set of rules, so you’re really just putting on somebody else’s clothes for a couple...

As you may recall, it was announced back in 2018 that Roxanne Benjamin would be scripting a remake of the 1984 horror movie Night of the Comet for Orion Pictures, but it’s been quite some time since we’ve heard a peep about the project. Thankfully, Slash Film provides a fresh update.
“That’s an interesting one. It’s still alive, just not really in the same iteration, but it’s still kicking,” Benjamin tells the site. “It’s gone through a lot of different — everything’s consolidating with everything. The snake is eating itself in our industry right now. So it’s gone through a lot of different hands, I think, throughout the process, but it’s still out there.”
Benjamin further explains, “There’s other stuff that’s going on with it. That movie division, I think, is gone now, or I can’t even remember. I think Orion Pictures,...

We’re less than a month into 2023, but there’s already an early frontrunner for the year’s most accurate movie title. You can love or hate “There’s Something Wrong with the Children,” but nobody can deny that there is definitely something wrong with those children. (Though “A Sad Orgy Can Really Ruin Your Life” would have been an equally accurate title.) The latest Blumhouse movie about creepy kids is a fitting addition to one of horror’s most reliable subgenres, and it manages to elevate itself above the competition through some genuinely compelling adult drama and a delightful Duffer Brothers-esque supernatural twist. And it’s infinitely more enjoyable than any direct-to-streaming January horror movie has any right to be.
Much like her directorial debut, “Body at Brighton Rock,” Roxanne Benjamin’s sophomore feature feels like a throwback to an era when horror movies were more fun. While it’s...

The Blumhouse-produced There’s Something Wrong with the Children adds to a long, enduring line of evil kids in horror. Even the title suggests a classic tale of bad seeds terrorizing adults. Director Roxanne Benjamin (Body at Brighton Rock, Southbound) and screenwriters T.J. Cimfel and David White make it apparent early on that they’re more interested in using a familiar setup to explore new angles within the subgenre, subverting a few tropes in the process.
Margaret (Alisha Wainwright) and Ben (Zach Gilford) embark on a weekend cabin getaway with their good friends Ellie (Amanda Crew) and Thomas (Carlos Santos). Ellie and Thomas bring their kids, Lucy (Briella Guiza) and Spencer (David Mattle), who unwittingly derail the couples’ vacation plans. The children’s presence highlights the divide between parents and parentless, something Margaret tries to bridge by offering to watch the kids one night. They sneak away into the night,...

Roxanne Benjamin has quietly become a staple of horror over the better part of the last decade. The filmmaker made her imprint on many a genre fan with her segment in the much-beloved anthology "Southbound," before also contributing to "Xx." Benjamin then made her debut feature, the absolutely terrifying "Body at Brighton Rock," which was released in 2019. Now, after a several year stint directing on shows such as "Riverdale" and "Chilling Adventures of Sabrina," Benjamin is back with her latest feature, "There's Something Wrong With the Children."
The film was produced by Blumhouse Productions as part of a deal the company has to produce films that will, ultimately, make their way to MGM+ after first arriving on Digital/VOD. The latest addition to the creepy kid movie subgenre was penned by T.J. Cimfel & Dave White, and features a stellar cast led by Alisha Wainwright Zach Gilford ("Midnight Mass"), Amanda Crew...

Up next from the ongoing collaboration between Blumhouse and Epix is There’s Something Wrong with the Children, directed by Roxanne Benjamin (V/H/S, Southbound) and coming to Digital and On Demand outlets on Tuesday, January 17, 2023.
Benjamin’s new movie will later be hitting MGM+ on March 17, 2023.
In the film, Margaret (Alisha Wainwright) and Ben (Zach Gilford) take a weekend trip with friends Ellie (Amanda Crew) and Thomas (Carlos Santos) and their two young children. Ben begins to suspect something sinister is afoot when the kids behave strangely after disappearing into the woods overnight. If only anyone would believe him.
Bloody Disgusting spoke with Roxanne Benjamin about her latest, where she broke down the script changes, influences, and whether being entrenched in horror makes it easier or more challenging to subvert expectations in a familiar subgenre.

There’s Something Wrong with the Children is a horror film by Blumhouse directed by Roxanne Benjamin starring Zach Gilford, Amanda Crew and Alisha Wainwright.
A B-Series movie of the “friends in a log cabin” type with terrifying children… but with no corn.
Storyline
After Margaret and Ben take off on a week-end escapade with their lifelong friends, Ellie and Thomas and their two small children, something supernatural starts happening when Ellie and Thomas´s kids start behaving strangely after they disappear in the woods at night, which makes Ben suspect something weird is happening.
Movie Review
This is a movie divided into two parts, which starts slowly and which it is hard to enter in spite of its great start (those fluorescent credits and good camera movement). Then, it relaxes, offers us a presentation of the characters which is rather unsubstantial (daddies and moms a little fed-up with life) and later drops us into terror…...

There’s Something Wrong with the Children opens to the bombastically ominous strains of The Sisters of Mercy’s “More” playing over tinted footage of children running and a storm rolling in. After some brief, inconsequential dialogue the film’s title flashes on the screen in bright green letters. It’s a wonderfully retro note to start things off on.
Ben and Margaret are on vacation with their friends Ellie, Thomas and their kids Spencer (David Mattle; Life & Beth) and Lucy.
A hike in the woods reveals the remains of a building not on the map, and exploring the building reveals a seemingly bottomless pit that the children insist has a light glowing in it. That should be their cue to pack the cars and go home,...

Perhaps you are a child-free person and hate kids; or are child-free and love other people's children, especially when they are difficult and you can give them back. Maybe you have and love your kids, but sometimes find parenting difficult (to put it mildly). Whatever your child situation, no doubt kids are a handful; well, they are human beings with all the emotions and problems that come with human life, but without the maturity or power to process and deal with their emotions. Hence, a nice subgenre of horror film that shows just how evil children can really be. Roxanne Benjamin is not stranger to horror of those left isolated with seemingly a relaxing weekend in mind, and she brings that eye to There's Something...

Based on the title of this review, I'm sure some readers expect me to eviscerate Blumhouse's "There's Something Wrong with the Children." It's likely those aren't the same people who had diaper discount mailers sent out to them the moment they turned 18. Targeted ads assume having children is what some of us must do -- despite our personal feelings or fiscal abilities to raise, birth, or adopt children. That's incredibly scary, as it reduces body autonomy to be a conditional term for non-parents. (Not to mention the cis-heteronormativity of it all that can trigger gender dysphoria and the deepest of sighs from those who don't want to have children or do but sadly can't in the queer community.)
Before I dive in further, I'd like to give flowers to director Roxanne Benjamin. Unequivocally, she captures how frustrating, confusing, and insulting this attitude feels through Margaret's (Alisha Wainwright) perspective. While the...

"Since before recorded time, it had swung through the universe in an elliptical orbit so large that its very existence remained a secret of time and space; but now in the last few years of the 20th century, the visitor was returning."
The opening narration of Thom Eberhardt's 1984 post-apocalyptic gem "Night of the Comet" sets the stage for a sci-fi adventure featuring a pair of sisters ("The Last Starfighter" star Catherine Mary Stewart and "Chopping Mall" star Kelli Maroney) who wake up in the wake of a world-ending event. Released the same year as "Gremlins" and "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom," "Comet" was one of the early mainstream carriers of the newly-established PG-13 label which allowed its targeted teen demographic to enjoy the thrills of zombies and scavenger skirmishes without having to beg mommy and daddy to chaperone.

Back in July of 2021, it was announced that V/H/S and Southbound filmmakers Roxanne Benjamin and David Bruckner were teaming up again for the survival thriller Fall Into Darkness, a remake of the 2014 Spanish-language film La Cueva. Benjamin would be directing the film, working from a screenplay Bruckner wrote with Nick Tecosky. Nell Tiger Free (Servant), Thomas Doherty (Legacies), and Lorenza Izzo (The Green Inferno) were all signed on to star. Filming was expected to begin at Lantica’s Pinewood Studios in the Dominican Republic in the fall of ’21. But Fall Into Darkness never went into production. And during a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Free theorized that it fell apart due to the pandemic.
When asked for a status update on the project, Free replied, “I think Fall Into Darkness became a victim to Covid. You know how things were. There were so many beautiful projects that were potentially going to happen,...

Evil children have been a popular horror trope for filmmakers with the likes of Village Of The Damned, Children Of The Corn, The Omen Series and The Innocents. Now comes There’S Something Wrong With The Children due for a January 17th release.

Today is a good day for sickos who love weird horror. The production company owned by the incomparable Sam Raimi, Raimi Productions, is teaming up with Hammerstone Studios' Alex Lebovici, the executive producer behind this year's hit horror film, "Barbarian." The two companies are re-teaming with Christian Mercuri's Capstone Studios to bring to life a horror-thriller called "Don't Move," according to an exclusive news break over at Deadline. This is a follow-up collaborative effort between Raimi Productions, Hammerstone Studios, and Capstone Studios after the Bill Skarsgård action-thriller, "Boy Kills World," which is currently in post-production.
Not much has been made public regarding the story of "Don't Move," outside of an official logline that reads, "'Don't Move' watches as a seasoned killer injects a grieving woman with a paralytic agent. She must then run, fight, and hide before her body completely shuts down." The film comes from Adam Schindler and Brian Netto,...

A cabin in the woods, a struggling marriage, and two giggling children who are ominously covered in blood? The upcoming Blumhouse and Epix collaboration has all the elements for disaster, so it's no wonder that it slots firmly into the horror/psychological thriller genres. It certainly doesn't help that the title alludes to one of horror's most reliable sources of dread, "There's Something Wrong with the Children."
Before supernatural horror even becomes a factor in the plot this film already has one of the most horrifying premises imaginable. When two couples head into the woods for a weekend getaway, one duo convinces the other to watch their children for the night while they take time to hash out some martial issues. Isn't the thought of unanticipated babysitting responsibilities terrifying?! Unfortunately, it only gets worse from here. Somehow, the babysitting couple loses sight of the children in the woods and when they're finally retrieved,...

"When we woke up they were gone!" Paramount + MGM have revealed an official trailer for a freaky horror indie film titled There's Something Wrong with the Children, the latest from indie genre filmmaker Roxanne Benjamin. It's another Blumhouse production, too. This is debuting directly on VOD in January in just a few more weeks from now. A family takes a weekend trip with longtime friends and their two young children, but, they suspect something supernatural when the kids behave strangely after disappearing into the woods overnight. What's going on with these creepy kids? And why are there so many evil kid movies recently? The film stars Alisha Wainwright, Zach Gilford, Amanda Crew, Carlos Santos, Briella Guiza, and David Mattle. This looks like it gets pretty scary with these kids - are they possessed or what? That red outfit one of them is wearing is the perfect costume choice to make it extra unsettling.

He is left face to face with the true culprit…The Blank (Taran Killam), a faceless sound parasite that thrives on the air of hatred.

The identity of snarky gossiper Simon Kelleher’s killer in season one was identified at the conclusion of Peacock’s One of Us is Lying season one. And, mini-spoiler alert, the gang took care of that problem (Rip Jake) but wound up creating a new one. Which, of course, leads us to season two.
The two-minute season two trailer reveals the Murder Club members will be tormented by “Simon Says” and forced into doing his/her bidding or else their involvement in Jake’s “disappearance” will be exposed. The trailer suggests the club should keep their friends close, but their secrets even closer.
Season two is set to premiere on October 20, 2022, however, New York Comic Con attendees were treated to a preview of the first episode along with a Q&a with the show’s stars. Showrunner/writer/executive producer Erica Saleh joined Marianly Tejada (“Bronwyn”), Chibuikem Uche (“Cooper”), Annalisa Cochrane...

Since starting out as a special makeup effects artist on George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead in 1985, Greg Nicotero has not only been a leading pioneer in his field but, during the past decade, has also taken on the roles of executive producer and director on one of the most successful horror TV series of all time, The Walking Dead, along with its spin-offs.
Last year, Nicotero became a showrunner as well, executive producing Creepshow, a six-episode horror anthology series for the Shudder streaming service inspired by the classic 1982 movie written by Stephen King and directed by Romero. In the spirit of the movie, Creepshow’s tone and format echoed that of the iconic EC horror comics that King and Romero honored with their film, with each episode of the show featuring two self-contained short tales.

The success of Shudder’s Creepshow — the horror anthology series based on Stephen King and George A. Romero’s 1982 cinematic homage to EC Comics — led to the genre streaming outlet quickly greenlighting a second six-episode season. As showrunner/director/writer Greg Nicotero tells it, cameras were literally about to start rolling on that second season when the deadly coronavirus pandemic roared around the world, shutting down not just most daily life but all film and TV production for the immediate future.
“I mean, we were one day away from shooting Creepshow season 2 when the big pause button got pushed,” says Nicotero on the phone from his home, where he remains like so many of us in lockdown. “So we were ready to go. We’re just waiting for the word to get back out in the world again.”
In one sense, however, Nicotero is glad that the shutdown occurred before production actually got started.

Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends. Horror has always been cyclical, and if that’s true, we have lucked out to be swirling around in a lot of good stuff. The best thing about 2019 in horror has been the variety: if you wanted a straight-up slasher, it was there. Ghosts? Covered as well. Creature features? Check. But in the world of horror, enough is never enough, so I’m going to plow through a whole whack of things I’ve liked and loved this past year.
