Your Secret Fetish Revealed by your Favorite Horror Subgenre

Published

on

Our interests say a lot about us as individuals.  Some of our interests shape us more than others, and some are more telling than the rest.  Now see what your favorite horror movie subgenre says about your secret fetish.

Vampires and Bondage

Underworld produced by Lakeshore Entertainment

Vampires are elegant and social creatures.  They are also very seductive and passionate lovers.  While some are lone hunters, many others find themselves in covens with multiple partners and enjoy each other’s company.

If these tall, dark, and brooding creatures of the night are your favorite monsters of the horror world, your secret fetish is bondage!  Whether it’s metal, leather, rope, saran wrap, or fluffy handcuffs, you love anything that is used to tie you up and restrict your movement.

Sometimes these bounds are ones that can be hastily applied in the heat of the moment, such as tape, handcuffs or zip ties.  Other times you enjoy rope in various textures and colors.  Rope can also be used to bind you in wearable and restrictive fashion, or it can be used to create beautiful knots that your lover takes time in designing along your body.

Werewolves and the Exhibitionist

‘Ginger Snaps’ 2000 produced by Copperheart Entertainment

Werewolves are usually pack hunters, but they are also very independent in their activities outside of the group.  They are wild creatures at heart, dictated by their emotions and instincts, and they are very impulsive.

If you find werewolf movies are your horror subgenre of choice then your secret fetish, my friend, is exhibitionism!

Nothing gets you hot and bothered like the risky adventure of having sex in public.  Whether it’s in the bathroom of a nightclub, a cemetery at midnight,  or a secluded clearing in the woods, the chance someone may overhear your naughty nightly debauchery really gets your blood pumping!

Zombie/Undead and the Casual Partner

‘Return of the Living Dead 3’ produced by Bandai Visual Company
Ozla Productions

Zombies and the undead are creatures with very simple needs; to feed.  Once those needs are met these creatures move onto their next victim, and then their next, and then their next.  Their hunger is insatiable.

If zombies and the undead are your cup of blood, you enjoy casual sexual encounters!

A night of intense passion to feed your most intense needs followed by the next morning when you each go your own way is exactly what you’re looking for.  No strings attached please.  This doesn’t make you a slut or a player, you just enjoy multiple consensual partners without the commitment of a relationship.  It’s no big deal as long as no one gets hurt… well, maybe except for some consensual biting.

 

Slasher Movies and Edge Play

‘Freddy vs Jason’ produced by New Line CInema

You can’t keep these masked killers of the entertainment world down… literally.  Once they have their mind set on a victim they will relentlessly pursue them until they are obtained.

If this is your favorite subgenre of the horror universe, cat and mouse is your game!  More specifically you are into edge play, my kinky friend!

This is one of the more dangerous and intense kinks, and is not to be entered into lightly.  RACK (Risk Aware Consensual Kink) and SSC (Safe Sane Consensual) are definitely in your wheelhouse.  You enjoy being stalked and helpless at the hands of your relentless pursuer.  You are a true masochist and give them all of the power, but that doesn’t mean you won’t go down without a fight.  Depending on the type of guy or girl you are, you may be the first victim, or you may be the final.  Either way you will not leave the situation unscathed!

Alien Movies and MedFet

‘American Mary’ produced by IndustryWorks Pictures

Aliens are silent explorers of the universe as well as organisms they don’t understand, namely us.  They abduct humans and experiment on them with questionable motives and usually very little regard for whether or not we survive.  When they’re not experimenting on us they are overpowering our species with their physical stature and advanced technology.

Is your movie collection dominated by these flicks from another world?  Well then, your secret fetish is MedFet.  In other words; let’s play Doctor!

You are turned on by being restrained and helpless to someone who is more physically imposing and intelligent than you are.  There is no way out of these situations, after all you are most likely tied to an operating table.  Due to the leather straps, or perhaps the local anesthesia, you have to helplessly submit.  All you can do is pray they will eventually release you.  But let’s face it, you secretly enjoy having your body explored with hands and implements.  The slow drawn out torture of being their silent prey as they subject you to one test after another is what brings you back time and time again.

Found Footage Films and the Voyeur

‘Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2’ produced by Artisan Entertainment

In the last decade there has been an explosion of found footage movies.  Stories about demonic possessions, hauntings, crimes, and viral outbreaks have all used this style of film making.

If this new subgenre of horror movies sounds like how you pass your time watching movies, you secret fetish is voyeurism!

You enjoy watching others as they are engaged in sexual activities, but you do not directly participate yourself.  This doesn’t necessarily make you a peeping Tom, there are many ways you can be a voyeur and have it be consensual and legal.  Watching a friend’s sex tape, arranging a threesome where you watch from afar, or viewing live adult videos online are all ways to be a consensual voyeur.  Whichever route you decide to take, you enjoy watching the action from a distance instead of directly participating up close and personal, and hey, that’s ok!  We’re not here to judge.

This Horror Film Just Derailed a Record Held by ‘Train to Busan’

Published

on

The South Korean supernatural horror film Exhuma is generating buzz. The star-studded movie is setting records, including the derailment of the country’s former top-grosser, Train to Busan.

Movie success in South Korea is measured by “moviegoers” instead of box office returns, and of this writing, it has garnered over 10 million of them which surpasses the 2016 favorite Train to Busan.

India’s current events publication, Outlook reports, “Train to Busan previously held the record with 11,567,816 viewers, but ‘Exhuma’ has now achieved 11,569,310 viewers, marking a significant feat.”

“What’s also interesting to note is that the film achieved the impressive feat of reaching 7 million moviegoers in less than 16 days of its release, surpassing the milestone four days quicker than 12.12: The Day, which held the title of South Korea’s top-grossing box office hit in 2023.”

Exhuma

Exhuma’s plot isn’t exactly original; a curse is unleashed upon the characters, but people seem to love this trope, and dethroning Train to Busan is no small feat so there has to be some merit to the movie. Here’s the logline: “The process of excavating an ominous grave unleashes dreadful consequences buried underneath.”

It also stars some of East Asia’s biggest stars, including Gong Yoo, Jung Yu-mi, Ma Dong-seok, Kim Su-an, Choi Woo-shik, Ahn So-hee and Kim Eui-sung.

Exhuma

Putting it in Western monetary terms, Exhuma has raked in over $91 million at the worldwide box office since its February 22 release, which is almost as much as Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire has earned to date.

Exhuma was released in limited theaters in the United States on March 22. No word yet on when it will make its digital debut.

Watch ‘Immaculate’ At Home Right Now

Published

on

Just when we thought 2024 was going to be a horror movie wasteland, we got a few good ones in succession, Late Night With the Devil and Immaculate. The former will be available on Shudder starting April 19, the latter just had a surprise drop on digital ($19.99) today and will be getting physical on June 11.

The film stars Sydney Sweeney fresh off her success in the rom-com Anyone but You. In Immaculate, she plays a young nun named Cecilia, who travels to Italy to serve in a convent. Once there, she slowly unravels a mystery about the holy place and what role she plays in their methods.

Thanks to word of mouth and some favorable reviews, the movie has earned over $15 million domestically. Sweeney, who also produces, has waited a decade to get the film made. She purchased the rights to the screenplay, reworked it, and made the film we see today.

The movie’s controversial final scene wasn’t in the original screenplay, director Michael Mohan added it later and said, “It is my proudest directorial moment because it is exactly how I pictured it. “

Whether you go out to see it while it’s still in theaters or rent it from the convenience of your couch, let us know what you think of Immaculate and the controversy surrounding it.

Politician Spooked By ‘First Omen’ Promo Mailer Calls Police

Published

on

Incredibly, what some people thought they would get with an Omen prequel turned out to be better than anticipated. Maybe it’s partly due to a good PR campaign. Maybe not. At least it wasn’t for a pro-choice Missouri politician and film blogger Amanda Taylor who received a suspicious mailer from the studio ahead of The First Omen’s theatrical release.

Taylor, a Democrat running for Missouri’s House of Representatives, must be on Disney’s PR list because she received some eerie promo merch from the studio to publicize The First Omen, a direct prequel to the 1975 original. Usually, a good mailer is supposed to pique your interest in a film not send you running to the phone to call the police. 

According to THR, Taylor opened the package and inside were disturbing children’s drawings related to the film that freaked her out. It’s understandable; being a female politician against abortion it’s no telling what kind of threatening hate mail you’re going to get or what might be construed as a threat. 

“I was freaking out. My husband touched it, so I’m screaming at him to wash his hands,” Taylor told THR.

Marshall Weinbaum, who does Disney’s public relations campaigns says he got the idea for the cryptic letters because in the movie, “there are these creepy drawings of little girls with their faces crossed out, so I got this idea to print them out and mail them to the press.”

The studio, maybe realizing the idea wasn’t their best move, sent out a follow-up letter explaining that it was all in good fun to promote The First Omen. “Most people had fun with it,” adds Weinbaum.

While we can understand her initial shock and concern being a politician running on a controversial ticket, we have to wonder as a film enthusiast, why she wouldn’t recognize a crazy PR stunt. 

Perhaps in this day and age, you can’t be too careful.
