Writer/director Michael Dougherty rose up through the Hollywood ranks authoring the scripts for multiple major blockbusters. He co-wrote the screenplay to "X2: X-Men United" and "Superman Returns" (both of which were directed by the now-disgraced Bryan Singer), and proved his horror chops with "Urban Legends: Bloody Mary," a straight-to-video threequel to the oh-yeah-i-remember-that slasher franchise from the late 1990s. Dougherty's directorial debut, the horror anthology "Trick 'r Treat," saw a slow release in 2007, but became a Halloween standard almost immediately thereafter. The man knows how to terrify audiences. His most recent film was the big-budget monster movie "Godzilla: King of the Monsters," the third film in the U.S. MonsterVerse series.
Dougherty's best film, however, came in 2015 when he made "Krampus," a Christmas horror film that's just as much a holiday standard as "Trick 'r Treat," only for Christmas. It features one of the coolest, scariest monsters of...

Lance Henriksen takes us behind-the-scenes of Eminence Hill. The actor likes to think of Westerns as "morality plays that have stuck with us" for hundred of years. His latest movie is preparing to hit select theaters next month and he spoke a bit more about the art of a good Western and why moviegoers can identify with the certain characters from within these movies. You can check out what Henriksen had to say about working on Eminence Hill below.
Eminence Hill revolves around a notorious outlaw and his gang as they come upon a small homestead. They end up killing both the husband and wife and kidnapping their teenage daughter. With the law closing in on them, and after losing their way, the bandits find themselves in the town of Eminence Hill, a community run by a group of deeply pious and fanatical homesteaders. It's not exactly a good mixture,...

You know Krampus. But you don't know this. A terrifying new slay ride through the holiday season promises to bring one killer Christmas as it reveals the dark origins of a yule tide legend. Today, we have the very scary first look at Krampus Origins. And it's not even Halloween yet.
Krampus Origins features teen star Anna Harr in a prequel that is sure to freeze winter in absolute terror. Harr is known for her star turns in Bethany and Restoration. Joining at her side is Maria Olsen, who you'll remember from Paranormal Activity 3 and Percy Jackson. She'll next be seen in the revenge horror thriller I Spit on Your Grave: Deja Vu. This movie, which explores where Krampus came from, and how he got such a bad reputation, comes from writer and Krampus franchise producer Robert Conway.

An in-name only sequel to writer/director Robert Conway’s 2015 Dtv flick Krampus: The Reckoning (review here), Krampus Unleashed once again hangs an unrelated story onto the tale of the Christmas anti-Santa which, at the time this film was made and originally released, in 2016, was riding high off the success of Michael Dougherty’s bigger-budgeted Krampus and an appearance in the portmanteau horror A Christmas Story.
But that was two years ago… Now? Krampus is probably best remembered here by a bunch of unsuspecting supermarket shoppers, who picked up the previous two terrible Dtv films (The Reckoning and The Christmas Devil), as a disappointment and something to be avoided. Which...

Writer-director Robert Conway’s partnership with Uncork’d Entertainment began with his horror film “The Encounter,” about a camping trip gone horribly wrong, and continued with “Krampus: The Reckoning,” about a little girl’s relationship with Krampus, the dark companion of St. Nicholas who punishes “bad children” at Christmastime in horrifying ways. Now, he’s working with Uncork’d again on the Krampus sequel entitled “Krampus Unleashed,” which signals the return of the yuletide monster after a group of fortune hunters mistakenly awaken him after years of being dormant. Watch an exclusive clip from the film below.
