The zombie was actually a Haitian Vodou metaphor for slavery. For enslaved Africans in Caribbean colonies like Haiti, the theft of one's autonomy was akin to a walking death.

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein earned nine nominations ahead of the 98th Academy Awards, but he did not win the Best Picture award despite the film's success in other categories.

Andy and Barbara are hard at work trying to come up with an idea for a story they'd want to tell for another season. It's not limbo other than they need to land on something they're excited by creatively. We'll be there.

The first thing you notice about undertone is how quiet it is; not just in its audio mix, but in how it's shot - primarily steady wide shots that slowly pan across empty rooms, allowing your eyes to frantically scan for something amiss. It's an understated form of filmmaking that allows for the movie's scares to hit all that much harder.

Netflix and Universal were very kind to let me go direct Scream VII and put some projects on hold. Now I'm focused on those. The first is a TV show based in the Universal monster land.

Until recently, "liminal spaces" were only known to architects. But on the Internet, storytellers and amateur filmmakers have morphed these ubiquitous places you pass by on errand runs into caverns of cosmic terror.

Even something as innocent as Eli sitting at the same lunch table sends his teammates running and screaming.

Filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun is following up their twisted tale with another story about how media can affect us, but this time the focus is on the silver screen. Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, described as a "new kind of horror remake," follows a director (Hannah Einbinder) obsessed with the actress (Gillian Anderson) who played the "final girl" in a classic slasher movie.
