Psychological Horror Film
Jump scares and body horror are all well and good for an October fright, but the films that really keep us up at night are psychological horror films.

Tune in and stay awake.Jump scares and body horror are all well and good for an October fright, but the films that really keep us up at night are psychological horror films.

Comics & Heroes
With Deadpool & Wolverine clobbering the box office on its opening weekend, does this mean that Comic Book Movies are back? The past few years have been sparse to say the least, there are still plenty of terrific films based on comics, like CGI brainbusters Avengers: Endgame and The Dark Knight, but also introspective films based on graphic novels such as Persepolis and When the Wind Blows.With Deadpool & Wolverine clobbering the box office on its opening weekend, does this mean that Comic Book Movies are back?
