Terrordrome Is The Ultimate Horror Fan Game!
Ever wondered who would win in a fight between Michael Myers and Leatherface? Or perhaps Candyman vs. Pinhead? Well, if you are a video game loverĀ on top of being a horror head. Here it is. The ultimate fan made game for horror fans! Best part about it, it’s absolutely free! Terrordrome is the brainchild of horror fan Marc Echave. For those of you that are unaware of this PC gem, in a Mortal Kombat type style, Echave has hand picked some of horror’s most legendary icons to do battle against one another in a holy matrimony of gaming and the horror genre. In a 2D format filled with plenty of gore, I have to tell you, this game is magnificently done with close attention to detail of our favorite icons.
You can have your characters do battle in some of the most iconic places in horror movie history, such as Camp Crystal Lake or the Myers House. The game itself has 14 playable characters, all with their own special moves and their classic weapon of choice for each. For example: Freddy could morph into what I describe as the giant penis head from Dream Warriors. Have I sold you on this yet? Also, it’s worth noting they each have a mini story line which explains why the hell they are all in the same universe together. They are as follows:
And but of course..Zombie Jason. Which is basically the upgraded version of Classic Jason in zombie form and with a longer reaching machete.
Now while the game can be played on your keyboard alone, a joystick or controller for your PC is what i would recommend for you to use if you have one at your disposal. As with some of the combination moves end up resulting in you button bashing on your keyboard. Which I have almost broken mine by the way by getting a little too balls to the wall with this.

This wonderfully crafted fully free PC game is a must have for any avid horror fan. To download the most current version, all you have to do is click here! You will need Microsoft Windows in order to download properly.
Happy horror gaming!

Another Creepy Spider Movie Hits Shudder This Month
Good spider films are a theme this year. First, we had Sting and then there was Infested. The former is still in theaters and the latter is coming to Shudder starting April 26.
Infested has been getting some good reviews. People are saying that it’s not only a great creature feature but also a social commentary on racism in France.
According to IMDb: Writer/directorĀ SĆ©bastien VanicekĀ was looking for ideas around the discrimination faced by black and Arab-looking people in France, and that led him to spiders, which are rarely welcome in homes; whenever they’re spotted, they’re swatted. As everyone in the story (people and spiders) is treated like vermin by society, the title came to him naturally.
Shudder has become the gold standard for streaming horror content. Since 2016, the service has been offering fans an expansive library of genre movies. in 2017, they began to stream exclusive content.
Since then Shudder has become a powerhouse in the film festival circuit, buying distribution rights to movies, or just producing some of their own. Just like Netflix, they give a film a short theatrical run before adding it to their library exclusively for subscribers.
Late Night With the Devil is a great example. It was released theatrically on March 22 and will begin streaming on the platform starting April 19.
While not getting the same buzz as Late Night, Infested is a festival favorite and many have said if you suffer from arachnophobia, you might want to take heed before watching it.
According to the synopsis, our main character, Kalib is turning 30 and dealing with some family issues. “Heās fighting with his sister over an inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend. Fascinated by exotic animals, he finds a venomous spider in a shop and brings it back to his apartment. It only takes a moment for the spider to escape and reproduce, turning the whole building into a dreadful web trap. The only option for Kaleb and his friends is to find a way out and survive.”
The film will be available to watch on Shudder starting April 26.

Part Concert, Part Horror Movie M. Night Shyamalan’s ‘Trap’ Trailer Released
In true Shyamalan form, he sets his film Trap inside a social situation where we aren’t sure what is going on. Hopefully, there is a twist at the end. Furthermore, we hope it’s better than the one in his divisive 2021 movie Old.
The trailer seemingly gives away a lot, but, as in the past, you can’t rely on his trailers because they are often red herrings and you are being gaslit to think a certain way. For instance, his movie Knock at the Cabin was completely different than what the trailer implied and if you hadn’t read the book on which the film is based it was still like going in blind.
The plot for Trap is being dubbed an “experience” and we aren’t quite sure what that means. If we were to guess based on the trailer, it’s a concert movie wrapped around a horror mystery. There are original songs performed by Saleka, who plays Lady Raven, a kind of Taylor Swift/Lady Gaga hybrid. They have even set up a Lady Raven website to further the illusion.
Here is the fresh trailer:
According to the synopsis, a father takes his daughter to one of Lady Raven’s jam-packed concerts, “where they realize theyāre at the center of a dark and sinister event.”
Written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, Trap stars Josh Hartnett, Ariel Donoghue, Saleka Shyamalan, Hayley Mills and Allison Pill. The film is produced by Ashwin Rajan, Marc Bienstock and M. Night Shyamalan. The executive producer is Steven Schneider.

Woman Brings Corpse Into Bank To Sign Loan Papers
Warning: This is a disturbing story.
You have to be pretty desperate for money to do what this Brazilian woman did at the bank to get a loan. She wheeled in a fresh corpse to endorse the contract and she seemingly thought the bank employees wouldnāt notice.Ā They did.
This weird and disturbing story comes via ScreenGeek an entertainment digital publication. They write that a woman identified as Erika de Souza Vieira Nunes pushed a man she identified as her uncle into the bank pleading with him to sign loan papers for $3,400.Ā
If youāre squeamish or easily triggered, be aware that the video captured of the situation is disturbing.Ā
Latin America’s largest commercial network, TV Globo, reported on the crime, and according to ScreenGeek this is what Nunes says in Portuguese during the attempted transaction.Ā
āUncle, are you paying attention? You must sign [the loan contract]. If you donāt sign, thereās no way, as I cannot sign on your behalf!ā
She then adds: “Sign so you can spare me further headaches; I canāt bear it any longer.āĀ
At first we thought this might be a hoax, but according to Brazilian police, the uncle, 68-year-old Paulo Roberto Braga had passed away earlier that day.
Ā āShe attempted to feign his signature for the loan. He entered the bank already deceased,āĀ Police Chief FĆ”bio Luiz said in an interview withĀ TV Globo. āOur priority is to continue investigating to identify other family members and gather more information regarding this loan.ā
If convicted Nunes could be facing jail time on charges of fraud, embezzlement, and desecration of a corpse.
