WARNING: The following contains major spoilers for Faces of Death (2026). Every horror fan has seen their fair share of death scenes.

Sequels, horror or otherwise, often face uphill battles, particularly when their predecessors are Academy Award-caliber classics. It’s easy to inherently dismiss titles like Psycho II, The Exorcist III, and The Fly II, but to do so is to overlook valuable horror movies that take their precursors’ ideas and push them to challenging new places.

It’s not really a slasher movie without teens drinking booze, getting high, and having sex, and you’ll be able to do at least two of those things in the upcoming Halloween video game.

The Boys are back in town.

The U.S. has Bigfoot, Australia has the Yowie, and South Africa has the Waterbobbejan.
