Horror Movies to watch out for in 2022

2022 is set to bring in a range of horror movies that are set to excite horror fans of cult favorites.

If you loved Hellraiser, Evil Dead, Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream, well guess what? All these movies are headed to your screen soon enough.

While details of the Nightmare on Elm Street are still under wraps, and some claim the reboot is only a rumor,  I for one would be so excited and on board for the new movie. Why? Because of all the Horror franchises,  Nightmare on Elm Street is my favorite. I mean, you can literally be killed in your dreams.

And then there are some movies from the 90s and 2000s that are also going to have either a sequel or a reboot.

Remember Final Destination. Do you also remember how the last movie showed that life comes full circle and makes a connection with the first movie? Also, you do know you can't cheat death right? Well, there are rumors that there is going to be a Final Destination 6 coming out soon!


Then there's the 2009 hit movie  Orphan. Slated for released on January 28th, the prequel to the critically acclaimed movie is set to release. Titled Orphan: First Kill, it is going to show Esther pretending to be a family's lost daughter. Can't wait to see the twist the cast keeps talking about. There is something wrong with Esther after all...

In June, Jordan Peele's new and mysterious movie Nope is set to release. Why is it mysterious? Because the plot has been kept under wraps. There's only a poster released that shows a cloudy blue sky with a spaceship. Could it be about aliens? And with a title like Nope, could Jordan Peele be heading back to his comedy roots and making a horror comedy? Can't wait for more details to be available on this one.

In October, we have the highly anticipated Halloween Ends. Yes, the Halloween franchise is supposedly going to end with this part. Or is it? What are the chances there is going to be a prequel about Michael Myers?

Anyway, it would be interesting to see how this elusive and supernatural Michael Myers will finally be killed. Of course Laurie Strode is going to do it. But how?

There is also a chance that the sequel to Nun 2 will release this year. Again, no details available yet.

Insidious: The Dark Realm will release sometime in April. Again there are no details of the plot and the movie will be directed by Patrick Wilson who has starred in the previous Insidious movies.

There is also going to be a couple of movies based on Stephen King's novels. Salem's Lot, Firestarter, a Pet Sematary project, Talisman, Christine....pretty much all of his novels are going to be adapted into movies. What remains to be seen is what will release in 2022. I for one would be excited to see a movie on my favorite novel Rose Madder.

As for TV shows, we can expect to see a new season of the hit show Chucky coming soon as well as a TV show by Mike Flannagan called The Midnight Club. It is supposed to be about five terminally patients who get together at midnight to share scary stories. Sounds interesting.

Mike Flannagan has also landed the project to adapt Edgar Allen Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher. The star cast boasts of all the previous actors in Mike Flannagan's other shows.

2021 had some hidden gems like The Trip,  Bloody Hell, Willy's Wonderland, The Night House, etc. Let's hope 2022 has an array of horror movies that will entertain and excite all Horror fans.

Fingers crossed.

The Limehouse Golem- My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: When Elizabeth's husband is found dead, all fingers point to her. But is it really her or the work of a serial killer? If like me, you’ve read hundreds of mysteries and are enthused about Sherlock Holmes tales, THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM is actually pretty predictable. Set in the Victorian Era, it promises to instil fear in you. Before Jack the Ripper, there was Golem- such is the tagline and you do want it to be the kind of movie that keeps you guessing until the very end as to the true identity of the killer.   Unlike the Jack the Ripper legend, Golem is easily recognizable in the very first instance the character is introduced.

Delirium (2018)— My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: After leaving the asylum and put in house arrest, Tom begins to believe the house is either haunted or he is hallucinating.  Most times, when we think about criminals, we wonder what could possible have prompted them to fall into a life of crime.

Look Away— my take on the movie with spoilers!

Plot Summary: A bullied girl switches places with her reflection. She soon regrets her decision as people start dying.  What matters most? Looks or confidence? When we see someone for the first time, we do notice their looks, the way they dress. Personality and their ability to initiate and hold a conversation comes second, doesn't it? Imagine meeting someone who is good looking but is dull to the core. Now imagine someone with average looks but is someone you can have fun with or have an intellectual conversation. Which seems more attractive? Look Away takes a very bold stand where appearances are concerned. But also about self-confidence. In the end, the only argument it makes is that one cannot possess both attributes. LOOK AWAY Movie Plot  We are introduced to a timid girl, Maria whose father is a plastic surgeon. Her mother is shown to have no say of her own. She is left to watch her husband ridicule his daughter about not being careful with her looks. Maria has a friend Lily
