When it comes to video games, the 'Evil Dead' series has never been very successful. 'Hail to the King' has aged as well as week old milk, and 'Fistful of Boomstick' felt a little too dull to make me really want to keep playing.

Then comes 'Regeneration', an 'Evil Dead' game that showed promise. Bruce Campbell would be returning as Ash, it would be an alternate sequel to the second film, and it has Sam Raimi's brother, Ted doing the voice of a wise cracking half deadite named Sam, who would be Campbell's sidekick. After hearing all of that, I bet you're pretty excited right? If you're a diehard 'Evil Dead' then you'll love this game, however it's not without its flaws.

As I said before, the game is what they call an 'alternate' sequel to 'Evil Dead 2' in which Ash is not pulled into the medieval world of 'Army of Darkness' but rather he stays in the modern world and is confined to an asylum as the police think he's responsible for the many deaths of the cabin residents. Once at the asylum, Ash has to deal with the deadites when they're raised once again thanks to the evil Dr. Reinhardt. Along the way you meet up with a half deadite named Sam, who becomes your personal whipping boy to get whatever you need to move ahead.

'The Evil Dead' is 32 years old as of this writing, yet somehow it manages to still have a special, somewhat hypnotic power over its audience and fans of horror and director Sam Raimi still go crazy over it today.

What is it about the film that captures people in its web you ask? I think there's many factors to this film that makes for not just a horror film, but a good film to learn about the process of filmmaking itself. You can see it in the film how hard and how much pain and sweat Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell and the rest of the crew put into it and at least for this film student is a great inspiration for making your first film.

However, before we get into that, we should probably talk about the film itself right? Well, why don't I start with the plot as it can be summarized quite easily: Young people go into the woods and don't come out. Easy, simple, but somehow they manage to get a lot out of it and make for a very tense and not to mention gory affair that will at least keep you entertained even if it doesn't scare you.

The special effects, while a little silly by today's standards are still quite welcome in this fan's house. Much better and more grotesque than a lot of computer effects that I've seen these days. Sure, they sometimes stick out like a sore thumb (such as the rubber hand wiggling around) but it's all part of the campy gory fun.

These past few months, I've only been hearing absolute praise for two films which have yet to be released wide: 'Evil Dead' and 'You're Next'.

Now, I've talked to death about 'Evil Dead' on this site, so I'll save that for another time, but 'You're Next' has been slowly getting my attention since South By Southwest and now, courtesy of Lionsgate the trailer for 'You're Next' is now available below:

Films about home invasion authentically scare me and this looks like it will be another one to creep me out which hasn't happened since 'The Strangers'. Here's hoping 'You're Next' is the excellent horror film the festival circuit has claimed it to be when it's released in August of this year. Check back here at MoreHorror for more info as it comes in.

'You're Next' is a new tale from the directing team behind 'V/H/S' and is about a group of people being terrorized by a group of stange masked killers while the group is vacationing in a summer house in the country. 'You're Next' will be released on August 23rd from Lionsgate.

“SLASH”, a SAG feature film starring Maria Olsen (Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, Paranormal Activity 3, American Horror Story), Todd Farmer (Jason X, My Bloody Valentine, Drive Angry), Gibby Haynes (lead singer of Butthole Surfers) and including several cameos by A-List actors, will be filming in New Mexico for four weeks.

SLASH is a story about young people who see their friends butchered around them. They must deal with each other’s violent fantasies and face their own demons...or die trying!

The writer/director/producer Rycke Foreman and producer/actress Maria Olsen (of MOnsterworks66) are using Sheryl Roberts to do the Principal Casting.  A casting call will be held in New Mexico in April and the production will begin in late June. The film will employ a crew of at least 85, a cast of 25 to 30 speaking roles, and approximately 350 background players. A vast majority of both will be New Mexico hires.

Currently, the attached crew consists of such notables as Rich E. Cordobes (Special FX: Lord of the Rings trilogy, Transformers), Steve R. Moore (Visual FX: Avatar, Titanic) and Peter Devaney Flanagan (Editor: Scream, Hellboy 2). More crew members are needed to fill production requirements. The film will employ a crew of a minimum of 85. For more information on being considered for the crew, please get in touch with Lora Carlson, producer, at lora[at]slashflick.com.

Rycke Foreman has worked in virtually all aspects of independent film, television and theatre for more than fifteen years around the Four Corners area. In 2009, he optioned a horror spoof to a small production company in Hollywood, and was part of the writing/producing team behind the multi-award winning short film “Auto Care,” shot later that year for the National Film Challenge. He has published short fiction since the early 90s, appearing in dozens of publications such as Marion Zimmer Bradley’s Fantasy Magazine and 69 Flavors of Paranoia, which he edits.

Do you need every last bit of 'Evil Dead' merch? Or maybe you're just wanting some new stuff for the remake? Whatever your reasons, you'll want to pick up the upcoming Official Score Soundtrack to the new 'Evil Dead' film, which will be available April 9th,

2013 on iTunes or other digital music retailers. You can also pick up a Deluxe CD version of the soundtrack, which features more than 25 minutes of extra music not available digitally which you can pick up at lalalandrecords.com or Amazon.com on May 7th.

I've actually had a chance to listen to the score to the film, which is composed by Roque Baños, who did the excellent score to the Christian Bale film 'The Machinist'. As for the 'Evil Dead' score, it's a very tense listen and I can't wait to see how it's been incorporated into the film.

I highly recommend picking up this soundtrack, preferably on CD so you can get the best bang for your buck and be sure to see 'Evil Dead' in theaters April 5th. Check back here at MoreHorror.com for our review of the film.

Anything that has a “Guillermo Del Toro Presents…” tag above a film, be it horror or otherwise, I know I can get excited about because that man just has an eye for some bizarre and refreshingly original content and he hasn’t let me down yet.

Mama comes from the twisted minds of Andrés Muschietti and Bárbara Muschietti and is the result of Guillermo Del Toro discovering their 2008 short film Mamá and being so impressed by it that he helped the duo develop a feature film around the concept with bigger toys to play with in the sandbox.

I could begin this sentence by going into the plot and setting up the storyline for you all, but Mama is one of those horror films where you are best going into blind and discovering plot details for yourself and even beginning to describe how this film opens would take away from that magic.

This film is a hell of a ride –constantly disturbing, often surprising and one of those rare and intelligent horror films that goes against what you believe is going to happen and ends up shocking you with satisfying and original scares.

I’ve seen way too many horror films now that I can see, by the film’s camera angles, that they’re gearing up for the scare and though Mama does in fact have a few of these times, it also have a few ingenious and shocking tricks up its sleeve itself that I couldn’t predict and for horror fans, I think that is most satisfying.

Occasionally Mama will come up with a few cliché elements throughout its run and you’ll be reminded about horror films such as The Ring or The Amityville Horror but Muschietti has some great ideas about horror and what works and he executes all this quite effectively enough that even though a few scares and tricks feel a little familiar at times, I just couldn’t care because I was having a fabulous time being thrilled.

Warning! This review will contain spoilers!

“Prey” was another interesting episode, in that it didn’t really focus on what was happening at the prison with Rick’s decision but rather, it was Andrea-centric as it focused on her attempting to escape The Governor’s grasp and return to her friends to warn of the incoming attack.

Rather oddly placed though, is the little flashback at the beginning of this episode that focuses on Michonne and Andrea in their days of winter, where the backstory to Michonne’s chained walkers is teased but never fully explored.

That this chunk of story is neither brought up with Michonne in this episode or even showed to be a reflection of Andrea makes it feel awkwardly thrown in just for the hell of it and I am left to wonder whether it would’ve been better to throw these parts in in the episode where Rick comes to a decision about Michonne, so they have more impact.

Meanwhile, Andrea encounters Tyreese on her hurried exit from Woodbury and rather intriguingly planted that seed of doubt in Tyreese’s mind about the governor and just what kind of man he really is.

I want to talk about this specific moment because I thought Andrea could’ve said a little more before jumping down off the barricade and running into the woods – she could’ve spilled the beans to Tyreese about the whole conflict, tell him what she knows about what happened to her friends at the prison, but I understand that The Walking Dead is probably saving these revelations till last.

Instead, Tyreese goes on a mission with The Governor’s boys and uncovers some of the nasty surprises that were in store for the prison gang: a group of walkers in a pit, designed to be used upon the prison gang in the coming war.

Interestingly enough, we get a little mystery with this subplot, as we find ourselves with a mysterious figure burning the walkers, thus eliminating that threat (for now). So who could this mysterious person be? Milton? That seems too obvious.

This mystery was all well and good but the most fascinating and engaging part of this episode was the superb and incredibly tense cat-and-mouse chase between Andrea running for her life to prison, with The Governor hot on her heels.

This whole sequence was brilliantly crafted, from its use of camera angles to editing, and watching this battle of wills between The Governor and Andrea – especially now The Governor has gone full blown psycho (what, with all that medical equipment in that dungeon and now the whistling?) – was incredibly effective.

From the writers that brought you The Ward, comes Dark Feed – a horror / thriller about a film crew making a horror film of their own deep within the frightening confines of an abandoned psychiatric hospital, where they encounter some deep, dark and long buried secrets that start to manifest in horrifying and violent ways.

We’ve all seen the abandoned hospital horror film, whether it be Session 9, Boo or Grave Encounters and while there is no problem with a variation of this idea time and time again, there has to be a satisfying tale for how ever long the filmmakers want your attention and sadly, what this ride lacks is an engaging story that both entertains and frightens.

Occasionally, Dark Feed has a scare up its sleeve that is as twisted as the morbid hospital history within the film but the majority of shocks on offer fall flat and the film is riddled with tired haunted house clichés we’ve seen before – black goo oozes from the walls, there’s a ghostly figure in a long white dirty dress that pops up occasionally and twitches and flickering lights play a vital role in setting up a scare.

Furthermore, this film is ridiculously dark – and I don’t mean that figuratively, although yes, it’s history is vile – no, I mean the lighting is very minimal throughout the film, leading to shadowed cast members, darkened sets that look like the cast and crew are in entirely black rooms with only one single torch as a light source -, which is horribly distracting as I had to double check the brightness on my TV in case there was an error on my behalf – there wasn’t, this film is just too dark and it suffers further because of it.

Apart from a few genuinely disturbing scenes – I could count these moments on one hand though – the scares here suffer from some weak editing and directing – when something jumps out, it just doesn’t have an impact and coupled with the literal darkness in this film, when characters wander off into the basement at night, you can’t even see the scare to begin with because it’s too dark and hard to see just what the hell is going on at times.
