Netflix’s latest creature feature, Thrash (2026), attempts to blend a high-stakes disaster movie with shark-infested horror. Unfortunately, legendary director Tommy Wirkola (Dead Snow) struggles to stay afloat here. Thrash is a soggy thriller that feels more like a chore than a thrill ride. Is it worth a stream, or should you stick to the classics?
Undertone (2025) bets everything on being the “scariest movie you will ever hear.” Whilst it is an atmospheric chamber piece with a solid lead performance from Nina Kiri, the heavy reliance on familiar horror tropes might leave genre veterans wanting more. It is a decent sleepover watch that thrives on its sound-heavy gimmick but lacks a bit of bite.

Neve Campbell finally returns as modern horror cinema’s favorite final girl in Scream 7 (2026). Unfortunately, original writer Kevin Williamson’s step into the director’s chair results in a messy, trope-heavy legacy sequel that relies far too much on cheap nostalgia and baffling character logic.

Every now and then a movie comes along that leaves you with a prevailing sense of “meh”. Diabolic (2025) is exactly that – a serviceable but extremely rote horror film weighed down by a woeful script and dull padding. We dig into the film and its blatant IMDb score manipulation.
Everything about Natasha Kermani’s The Dreadful (2026) suggests a folk-horror home run: a high-caliber cast, a moody 15th-century setting, and a substantial budget. However, despite the much-hyped Game of Thrones reunion between Sophie Turner and Kit Harington, the film is a wordy, glacial slog that chooses meandering monologues over actual tension.

If you found yourself confused by the cursed helmet, the identity of the demonic knight, or why Anne ultimately chose to embrace the darkness, you are definitely not alone. Join us as we strip away the religious piety, expose the grifters, and unpick the grim ending of this miserable historical horror.
