The first lineup of titles for the 15th annual Boston Underground Film Festival has been announced, and they’ve got some scary, creepy stuff playing for the first time in the area.

Co-directors Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado, who wowed audiences a plenty with the slasherless slasher RABIES, return.

Hot on the pencil-poked heels of our cheerfully repugnant EVIL DEAD cover announcement, FANGORIA Editor Chris Alexander tracked co-writer/director Fed Alvarez to his home in Uruguay to talk about his hotly anticipated gore-caked remake.

Nestled in the deep, dark, dangerous Toronto Dundas/Ossington strip is a grotty spot called Sex Laser. Yes…Sex Laser.

Writer/director Rob Himebaugh’s thesis film EAGLEWALK has been stomping its way across North America in a momentum-gathering festival run, leaving a strong buzz in its wake. The film aims to revive the Sasquatch subgenre, taking an often playfully handled beastie and returning it to its sinister roots. This is what a Bigfoot movie should be. Frightening, taut, and fun.

Dead by Dawn celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, making it one of the UK's longest-running genre events. We talk to the one-woman force behind Dead by Dawn, Adele Hartley, about the festival's history, the challenges of being a woman in a male-dominated industry, and what we can expect as part of this year's anniversary festivities.

As news stories about sociopaths whose actions seem unfathomable continue to permeate the media, perhaps it’s inevitable that thrillers concerned more with examining the devolution of their antiheroes’ minds than with the violence of their deeds should become a minitrend. This week’s example, RUBBERNECK, particularly foregrounds character over action, and cerebral thrills over the visceral kind.

FANGORIA ed Chris Alexander got on the horn with actor J.K. Simmons to talk about his role in DARK SKIES, opening today. And while that film is discussed at length, Simmons’ other roles are mused upon as well, including his role as SPIDER-MAN’s J. Jonah Jameson, his brush with Uwe Boll and—even more relevant to Fango fans—his enduring portrait of neo-Nazi evil in the nightmarish HBO prison drama OZ.

The Hudson Horror Show gang have their seventh 12-hour showcase of 35mm classic movies ready to roll for New York genre fans, so read on for the details and first look at the poster.
