With FEARnet on its way out, the go-to horror channel is Chiller and they’ve just released this amazing PSA with horror icon Robert Englund—best known for his role as Freddy Krueger in the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise—asking viewers to open their hearts to a psycho and help them find a home on Chiller.

Here’s something you just don’t see everyday. A Japanese movie poster for Sam Raimi’s Army of Darkness depicts the film’s hero inside a supermarket of sorts? Honestly, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the marketing strategy of this poster because there’s all sorts of insane shit going on here. If the paper bag filled with bread, a chainsaw and Ash’s boomstick isn’t weird enough, how about the random dolphin in the background jumping through a coat hanger? Continue Reading…
As all of you guys know, Bruce McDonald—director of Pontypool—is currently hard at work on his latest horror feature Hellions, which is currently in the editing stage. In their way of giving back to the indie community, the cool cats behind Hellions are hosting an awesome short film contest to help spread the work of indie filmmakers. How cool is that? All you have to do is create the scariest short film up to 2 minutes long, and if they pick you as a winner you’ll have your work not only seen by horror fans from all over, but it will actually be seen in the film itself! Below are all the details! Continue Reading…
Hammer Films’ upcoming supernatural chiller The Quiet Ones is yet another horror film that prides itself on being inspired by “true events”. The John Pogue-directed haunter recently found a spot on my “Most Anticipated” list so I decided to do a little digging to find out just what the film’s inspiration was. Now this one is a stretch, guys. The movie bases itself off of a little experiment that a group of scientists conducted back in the 70′s where they set out to create a ghost of their very own. Now that’s quite the twist on your typical ghost story isn’t it? We all know someone who claims to have experienced a supernatural event, or maybe even you yourself have have seen a ghost. But do ghosts actually exist, or is it something that our very mind manifests? Can we actually be the ones creating the ghost? That’s the question they set out to answer, and what they found turned out to be quite shocking. This is the true story that inspired The Quiet Ones. Continue Reading…
I can’t even begin to wrap my brain around how artist Marc Hagan-Guirey managed to recreate some of horror’s most iconic haunted houses with a single piece of paper, but he did, and it’s absolutely stunning. The attention to detail and the way he uses light to create multiple layers is a thing of brilliance and easily one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while. I think you guys are going to get a kick out of this. The paper cut count must have been ridiculous while creating these miniature masterpieces! Continue Reading…
My second year of blogging is coming to and end, and what a year it was! With 2013 officially coming to an end, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you readers for stopping by everyday and fueling the beast that is Rhino’s Horror. If it weren’t for you guys this whole blogging thing just wouldn’t be the same, and it’s truly because of you folks that it has become such a success. This year was pretty overwhelming for me, to say the least. My blog has reached over a million total views in 2013, and it’s a number that I’m still having a hard time processing. When I originally started Rhino’s Horror I never even imagined getting a thousand views, let alone 1 million. But at the end of the day it’s just a 1 with a bunch of zeros behind it. What really matters is that you, the readers, keeping coming back for more horror, and that’s truly the most rewarding part of this whole thing. So again, thank you! Continue Reading…
Last year, just as 2013 was rolling in, I made a list of the most anticipated horror movies of 2013. Some of them turned out to be a hit like Stoker, The Conjuring, Byzantium and Evil Dead while others were quite the disappointment as we saw both Carrie and Oldboy falling short of expectations. Now, I’ll be turning my attention to what horror has to offer in 2014. Continue Reading…
And just like that we see another year of horror come to an end as 2014 rolls in on even more films for us to anticipate. I gotta say, I was pretty happy with the genre this year as it offered plenty of variety. We saw some surprisingly good remakes, a big-budget success and a few indie gems stand out from the rest this year. I didn’t see nearly as many films as I probably should have, but I made it a point to hit some of the bigger releases as well as the more anticipated flicks that I’ve talked about over the course of the year.

How has this not happened yet? Seriously, how does a mentally disabled kid who gets drowned in a lake, a child molester and a psychopath who escapes from a mental hospital all become legends in the horror genre while the jolly old fat guy, who sneaks into our homes while we are sleeping every year, not even get a single good horror film? Sure, we saw a madman dress up as Saint Nick in Silent Night, Deadly Night go around and skewer naked women with dear antlers, but that’s not what I’m talking about here! I’m talking about Santa Claus, the man with a creepy little army of elves and a flying sled powered by blood thirsty reindeer, that guy. Continue Reading…
