Wicked Horror is the author of How ‘Tenebrae’ Explores a Writer’s Greatest Fear. Wicked Horror is the internet's only horror fan site for free original horror movies, news, review & more. Dario Argento is one of the all-time masters of horror. No matter how much the quality of work has fallen in recent years, when he was in his prime he was nigh unbeatable.

It was gorgeously shot, a truly artistic product ..read more

Wicked Horror is the internet's only horror fan site for free original horror movies, news, review & more. As horror fans, we love to endlessly debate our favorite topics. Healthy discussion is what keeps the passion alive and is what leads us to find friends in likeminded fans. And if there’s one thing fans love to talk about, it’s zombies. It makes sense, of course.

Wicked Horror is the author of Can We Acknowledge That ‘Event Horizon’ is the Purest Space Horror Since ‘Alien’?. Wicked Horror is the internet's only horror fan site for free original horror movies, news, review & more. So, let’s be honest right out of the gate: Paul W.S. Anderson is not known for making great movies. He is, absolutely, known for making fun movies.

Because of that, I think people tend to forget that Anderson can make a good feature when he really wants to. Shopping ..read more

The former has a co-writing credit on the enthralling, if needlessly convoluted, Netflix revenge flick Reptile, while the latter boasts several production credits o ..read more

Many directors are fond of appearing in their own work in some capacity or another. Given there are plenty of people who aren’t entirely familiar with what their favorite directors look like, it’s easy to miss them when they appear onscreen.

Wicked Horror is the author of ‘The First Omen’ Goes There [Review]. Wicked Horror is the internet's only horror fan site for free original horror movies, news, review & more. The Omen and the franchise that follows is the horror series with the strangest history by a country mile, and also the nearest and dearest to my heart.
