Running We Are Indie Horror is a fun gig as horror lovers. We get to watch some great indie horror, but we also get to watch amateur filmmakers make their way onto the scene. When we set out to create this horror community, we had no idea how many filmmakers would come out and show support, as well as look for support themselves. This is why it is great to see films like George Fraserâs Happenstan...[Read More]

Children and some adults are afraid of the dark. Uncommonly fear of the dark is known as Nyctophobia. Throughout the time of stories and various forms of media the dark has always created a sense of unease and a great place for fright. 80âs metal band Iron Maiden even wrote a whole song about it titled âFear Of The Darkâ. In the song they explain what is so frightening about the absent of light. I...[Read More]

Hank Boyd is Dead may have been crafted under the auspices of a micro-budgetâ using Broadway actors, and resources readily at hand to the directorâ but the production value here is incredible. Looking nothing like...[Read More]
Weâve often spoken about the transcendental shift from one side of the camera to another. Itâs always great to see what an actor can do when they finally spread their wings and attempt directing. Although much desired, directing is hard work, and not for everyone. There are few, however, who manage to not only make the change, but excel at it. This time weâre hoping to say the latter for Walking D...[Read More]

With cheap thrills in mind, w...[Read More]

What is the scariest place? Maybe an abandoned asylum, or amusement park? How about an old church or dark forest? Perhaps the most terrifying place is not on this planet, but rather the infinite solitude of outer space. Imagine floating around in deep space, alone in the void, light years away from contact. A lonely space ship is the only thing keeping you away from the treacherous nothingness out...[Read More]
