[Film Review] Redux Redux (2025)
Redux Redux comes to streaming off the back of a fair amount of hype after playing several festivals, including South by Southwest, where it had its premiere as part of their Midnighter strand last year. Festival hype is, of course, always to be taken with a grain of salt, but in the case of Redux Redux, it feels very warranted.
[Film Review] The Convenience Store (2026)
Anyone who’s ever spent any time in Japan will likely be familiar with the allure of the convenience store. The humble konbini is so much more than just a place to buy cheap coffee and cigarettes – it’s a beacon aglow on even the darkest of nights, where a fluffy egg sando or crisp sliver of Famichiki awaits, the convenience store serves as a reminder that you are never too far from creature comforts, and the company of another human being.
[Film Review] Red Riding (2026)
Fairy tales and horror almost go hand in hand; from a young age, we read cautionary tales, warning us about whom we should trust and, in Little Red Riding Hood’s case, to ‘beware of the Big Bad Wolf’. So it doesn’t come as a surprise that we see horror filmmakers take these stories and adapt them to the big screen with their own spin on the classic tales.
[Film Review] Queens of the Dead (2025)
“This is not a George Romero movie. There is no such thing as a zombie, okay?” No girl, this is a Tina Romero movie! Funny, fabulous and unapologetically queer, Queens of the Dead is the debut feature from Tina Romero.
[Film Review] Violence (2026)
Kicking off the final day, we have Violence, a blood-soaked thriller set in an alternate 1980’s that will shake away any remnant of hangover from the night before and wake up the audience.
[Film Review] Bury the Devil (2026)
While many horror films may feature a similar set-up, few pack the emotional punch of Adam O’Brien’s new film Bury the Devil, which premiered March 6 at FrightFest Glasgow.
[Film Review] Jailbroken (2026)
Like the analogy of a frog in a boiling pot of water, the tension steadily builds upon itself throughout the film, until the climatic ending, when the viewer can hardly believe that just eighty minutes ago Joe was flying high on his upcoming freedom.
[Film Review] Iron Lung (2026)
Mark "Markiplier" Fischbach has been a staple of the YouTube horror gaming scene since his debut in 2012. Now he's traded his computer screen for the big screen with his adaptation of David Szymanski's 2022 indie game Iron Lung.
[Book Review] Tradwife (2026)
It’s a subculture that leans decidedly, sinisterly far-right – and it’s with this thread of baked-in horror that author Saratoga Schaefer gleefully runs riot in their new novel, Tradwife (2026).
[Film Review] God of Frogs (2026)
Canadian horror God of Frogs, a psychedelic blend of creature feature, folk and body horror manages this feat remarkably well. Each segment has a different director, but all four follow the same monster, which returns to feed every 25 years.
[Editorial] 9 Essential Hagspolitation Horror Films and Where to Stream Them
Hag horror originated in the early 1960’s and enjoyed its heyday during this time. Golden Era Hollywood actresses such as Joan Crawford and Bette Davis suddenly found themselves struggling to win roles over the younger, rising starlets of the time. So, in an ironic moment of art imitating life imitating art, these women turned to psychological horror films centered on unstable and dangerous older women. And a new character archetype was born.
[Editorial] Interview with Alex Phillips on Anything That Moves (2025)
While thematically and tonally different from his first feature, All Jacked Up and Full of Worms (2022), director Alex Phillips continues to create some of the more surreal indie horror films around. While Anything that Moves plays off of giallo and grindhouse genre films of the 70s, there is a unique warmth that Phillips brings along with all the blood and sex.
[Film Review] V/H/S Halloween (2025)
The American found footage horror anthology film V/H/S Halloween was produced by Bloody Disgusting and released on Shudder following 2024’s V/H/S Beyond. It brings us a collection of October 31st-themed video tapes covering sinister stories from the darkly absurd to the gloriously gory. If you’re into camp chaos, then this chapter of analogue abhorrence is probably for you.
[Film Review] Bare Skin (2026)
Five strangers arrive for a group therapy session, each of them victims of extreme trauma. They have been brought together in the hope that sharing their experiences in the confines of a safe space will foster healing, or at least the beginning of it. But as the strangers tell their stories, an unsettling truth becomes clear: they may have more connecting them than they realise…
[Film Review] Stream (2024)
Stream is a cutting commentary on the gamification of everything, that humans will bet on anything if they get bored enough, and how the screen makes us feel separated from violence. A sequel is already in the works, and Stream 2 plans to explore the wider world, and show more behind-the-scenes of the games.
[Film Review] Breathing In (2023)
Ever since there has been war, there has been art about war. Viewers at the 2023 Brooklyn Horror Film Festival were lucky enough to see the world premiere of Jaco Bouwer's film Breathing In, a tense thriller about the trauma of war and colonisation, and the corrosive effects on power.
[Film Review] Mother of Flies (2025)
The healing power of nature is widely known, and Mother of Flies takes this to another level and adds some witchcraft to it when student Mickey seeks dark magic from natural healer, Solveig, for a cure to her deadly diagnosis, a ritual that tiptoes the veil between life and death.
[Editorial] 7 Valentine's Day films for the horror lover in your life
Here at Ghouls, we’re not averse to getting a little soppy with it, so we’ve rounded up seven of the most romantic horror films to spice up your Valentine’s Day, and where to stream them.
[Theatre Review] Inside No 9: Stage/Fright (2025-2026)
A love letter to the characters from the show and to Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton’s love of horror and comedy, they bring the show back to where they started many years ago, with The League of Gentlemen, back on the stage.
[Film Review] Before Heated Rivalry, There Was Good Neighbours (2010)
Like Heated Rivalry, Good Neighbours shows Tierney’s ability to creep into a character’s mind (and heart – if they have one) and subtly reveal their thoughts and emotions on screen. However, the trio he focuses on for Good Neighbours is made up of people whose brutality is shocking and whose empathy is missing.
