Horror Weekly News: The Black Demon trailer drops. Two mysteries available for streaming today.



It is the year of the megalodon. 

While Meg 2: The Trench, will release later this year, The Black Demon will hit screens later in April.

The megalodon was a species of shark that went extinct millions of years ago. 
It is thought to have been almost 67ft in length and preyed on whales and sea turtles.

According to a Mexican legend, the megalodon was spotted recently and since it was a darker shade than regular sharks, it was termed as a black demon.

Whether or not it was spotted, there were reports of large teeth being found that could only belong to a large creature such as the megalodon.

The Black Demon is based on this legend.

In the movie that stars Josh Lucas and Ferrnanda Urrejola, a family gets stranded on a rig after they are attacked by a megalodon. The locals believe it to be a curse and that the creature will not stop until a sacrifice is made.

It is now up to the hero to save the whole town from this creature.

The trailer reveals an exciting plot and thrilling action. 

THE BLACK DEMON is expected to release on April 28th.

Two new movies are available to watch today.

Shudder's THE UNHEARD is about 20-year old Chloe who undergoes an experimental procedure to restore her hearing.

Things seem to go well after the operation but shortly after, Chloe begins to experience hallucinations that are related to the disappearance of her mother.

Will Chloe finally find out what happened to her mother? 

The movie has received mixed reviews. While the acting has been praised, the movie has been criticised for its slow pacing.

Currently, the film holds a 50% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

The next release of the day is Gaslight, a bellwood thriller that releases on Disney Plus.

The movie stars Sara Ali Khan and is rumored to be based heavily on Jessabelle, a 2014 horror movie.

GASLIGHT is about a paraplegic woman who is asked to return to the Palace by her father. Upon her return, she is shocked to discover that her father is absent.

When she makes no contact with him, she suspects her stepmother pf wrongdoing.

Will she be able to find out the truth and unravel the mysteries of the Palace in time? 

The movie has received mixed reviews so far. Just like The Unheard, the movie has been praised for its acting but criticised for a boring and slow screenplay.

However, some critics have lauded the film's attempt at inducing chills in some moments.

The movie releases on March 31st.

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
