Norman Bates is haunted by many demons, but the one which tortures him the most is not loneliness or fear or even his questionable past. That demon is his mother.
Norma Bates (at least what remains of her) is glimpsed in the shadows of Alfred Hitchcock’s horror classic Psycho, and later heard through Norman’s own mouth. Her backstory remained a mystery until Bates Motel first aired in 2013. It reveals Norman couldn’t have possibly become Hitchcock’s iconic killer without being twisted by his mother. Now, a decade later, Norma, played to chilling perfection by Vera Farmiga, is as controlling as ever—dead or alive.
As Norman (Freddie Highmore) fumbles through adolescence, climbing out his window to meet girls and at least attempting to date, his mother does everything in her power to keep him from going through puberty. She wants to preserve him in the formaldehyde of...

Last month, we dug into the making of the 2006 horror film Final Destination 3 with an episode of our Wtf Happened to This Horror Movie? video series. Now we’re winding the clock back three more years to give 2003’s Final Destination 2 (watch it Here) the Wtf treatment! To find out all about Final Destination 2, check out the video embedded above.
Directed by David R. Ellis from a screenplay by J. Mackye Gruber and Eric Bress (with Jeffrey Reddick also receiving story credit), Final Destination 2 has the following synopsis: Kimberly has a premonition of a horrible highway accident killing multiple people — including her and her friends. She blocks the cars behind her on the ramp from joining traffic — and as a police trooper arrives, the accident actually happens. Now, Death is stalking this group of mistaken survivors — and one by one they are dying as they were supposed to on the highway.

The comedy series “Blockbuster” has been canceled after just one season at Netflix.
The 10-episode series launched its one and only season on November 3. The show was a single-camera workplace comedy about the employees of the last Blockbuster Video in the world.
The series starred Randall Park, Melissa Fumero, Olga Merediz, Tyler Alvarez, Madeleine Arthur, Jb Smoove, Kamaia Fairburn, Leonard Robinson, and Keegan Connor Tracy. Vanessa Ramos created the series and served as executive producer. David Caspe and Jackie Clarke also served as writers and executive producers. John Davis and John Fox executive produced via Davis Entertainment. Universal Television was the studio.
The cancellation of the series is not altogether unexpected. “Blockbuster” failed to break into the Netflix Top 10 rankings in the U.S. upon its debut upon its debut and in the first full week after its debut. Per Netflix, it only reached the top 10 in two countries following its launch,...

This article contains minor spoilers for "Halloween Ends."
Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell) is the name on every horror fan's lips right now. He's the surprise, breakout character of David Gordon Green's final chapter in his reboot trilogy, "Halloween Ends." Sure, Green's trilogy might be an uneven, thematically inconsistent set of films, but Green certainly deserves some brownie points for taking large risks in his attempts to innovate the "Halloween" franchise.
In "Ends," the huge risk is centering its story away from just Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Michael Myers (James Jude Courtney), and exploring Haddonfield's festering anger through a new conduit. Laurie sees something in Corey's eyes, something dark and distant, something evil — not unlike her boogeyman before him. Green makes a large effort to portray Corey's descent into evil through visual parallels with Michael Myers. He stands by the bush and stares at Laurie the way Myers did all those years ago,...

For his first two features, Brandon Christensen has given us a pair of nightmarish examinations of parental paranoia with Still/Born and Z, with the latter officially headed onto Blu-ray and DVD this week, courtesy of Rlje Films and Shudder (it’s also now available on a variety of Digital platforms). Daily Dead recently had the opportunity to speak with Christensen and he discussed the inspiration behind the story of Z, the challenges of making “nothing” scary, collaborating with the film’s star Keegan Connor Tracy, and more.
Great to speak with you again, Brandon. You and Colin [Minihan] have collaborated together a few times now. I was hoping you could start off by discussing the process behind putting this story together for Z in particular, and how different that process was for you both this time around versus Still/Born.
Brandon Christensen: With Still/Born, Colin and I were both there from the beginning.

The creepy kid horror canon is extensive. Often paired with the possession film or another supernatural subgenre, many of these pictures look to mine the common fear of a child with innate evil. For parents, they also tap into the fear that your child is not turning the way you imagined they would–in fact, they may be utterly psychotic.
Co-writer and director Brandon Christensen initially codes his second feature, Z, so that it fits neatly into these trappings. It’s apparent right out of the gate: a textural montage of Joshua (Jett Klyne) illustrates the cerebral and visceral immersion of childhood, where toy planes and trains roar to life with all the hums and throttles of their real-life counterparts. This opening also injects the tiniest hint of menace into youth, quickly teasing tension and the threat of violence before snapping it away.

Many of us have a childhood memory of a monster that we were convinced lived in the closet, under our bed, or in a particularly shadowy corner of our room. It’s funny how, as we age, the shadows simply become shadows and our fears slowly fade. Suppose, however, that the specter in the shadows never really went away… we just no longer had the imagination to see him.
Z chillingly challenges the idea that we can outgrow our deepest fears. The cynicism of adulthood can’t necessarily save you from the things that go bump in the night and our greatest traumas have the power to haunt us forever. Z blurs the line between what is real and what is imagination… and it’s a nightmare.

"He saw you, too..." Shudder has released an official trailer for an indie horror thriller titled simply Z, the latest from director Brandon Christensen (of 2017's Still/Born previously). This originally premiered at the Overlook Film Festival last year, and is debuting to watch on Shudder this May. A family find themselves terrorized by their eight-year-old son's imaginary (or not?) friend that he calls "Z". Another tale of "parental terror" from the filmmaker behind Still/Born. The film stars Keegan Connor Tracy, Jett Klyne, Sean Rogerson, Sara Canning, and Stephen McHattie. It doesn't particularly seem like anything we haven't seen before, but the creepy monster reveal is a bit jolting. Horror fans definitely don't want to miss this one. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Brandon Christensen's Z movie, direct from YouTube: A couple is shaken to the core when their 8-year-old son begins hanging out with a creepy and ominous imaginary friend.

Tagline: "Z Wants to Play." Z is the name of an imaginary? monster. Z is also the title to Shudder's latest horror acquisition. From director Brandon Christensen (Still/Born) and writer Colin Minihan, this feature focuses on a young boy and the terror he materializes into reality. Shudder will release this intriguing film in May, Mother's Day weekend. As well, the film stars: Keegan Connor Tracy ("Bates Motel"), Sean Rogerson (Grave Encounters), Jett Klyne and Stephen McHattie. Shot in Canada, the film's available release details are hosted here. The film's trailer shows Joshua (Klyne) and the creature that stalks him. First, it appears as a drawing. Then, it takes a human-like form as it terrorizes an entire family. But, how is this monster coming into existence? Director Christensen has talked about his latest film. Christensen says of the characters: "with Z, we once again have a film about a tortured mother and father,...

The horrors of having an imaginative youngster have been explored countless times with every twist in the book, from The Babadook to Hide and Seek to Mama and Before I Wake. So 2019’s festival fright Z had a high mountain to climb to stand out from the rest. Though it tries to stand out with its own twists on the tale, what really sets Z apart from its cohorts is its scares. Directing from a screenplay he wrote with his Still/Born writing partner, Colin Minihan, Brandon Christensen creates a tormenting fright worthy of mentioning alongside the greats noted above.

This October, the Telluride Horror Show celebrated 10 years of fine horror programming. Held annually in Telluride, Colorado, this film festival prides itself on bringing an eclectic selection of feature films and shorts from the horror genre. In my third consecutive year of attendance, I navigated the programming guide like a veteran and did not sit through one screening that I hated. Here are my thoughts on two heavily psychological terror journeys, Z and 1Br, two of my favorites from the weekend.
Z: I can attest, from personal experience, that parenting is inherently creepy as hell. Children, specifically, are creepy as hell. The entire time you are shepherding this fledgling life you created, you are doubting every decision, overanalyzing every behavior, and unintentionally passing on your own issues. And this is on a good day.
Brandon Christensen's Z takes this already unnerving and relatable foundation and liberally spreads on the layer of an imaginary friend.

Bringing a tidal wave of horror onto the shores of South Florida, the fifth annual Popcorn Frights Film Festival sliced its way into Savor Cinema back in August for nine days of eclectic scares and insightful conversations. Co-founded by Marc Ferman and Igor Shteyrenberg, this year’s Popcorn Frights featured more than 70 films (both feature-length and short form) from around the globe, including 10 world premieres of diverse stories ranging from a comic book serial killer to a dog-sized spider and new twists on Frankenstein. This year’s Popcorn Frights proved that horror has found a loving, long-term home in South Florida, and Daily Dead was lucky enough to attend the festival (and serve on its jury). With many of the festival’s films now being released in theaters and on VOD, we thought this would be a good time to look back at the week of killer screenings that left...

Disney Channel’s premiere of the musical Descendants 3 drew 8.4 million total viewers in Live+3 ratings to rank as the top show across all of television on Friday night. It also was cable’s highest-rated program since 2017’s Descendants 2 in several key young demos.
The threequel — which was dedicated to the memory of its star Cameron Boyce, who died last month — ranked No. 1 on Saturday in every demo Disney Channel tracks. Per Nielsen, it was the top-rated telecast on all of cable in two years among kids 6-11, tweens 9-14, girls 6-11 and girls 9-14.

Press Release (via Home Theater Forum): Culver City, Calif.

After narrowly escaping a zombie quarantine, Chase—along with a group of dubious allies—slices, hacks and bludgeons his way through the zombie hordes that plague every corner of the abandoned city.

With the Legendary Digital Media movie now available to watch on Crackle, the cast and crew discussed their badass characters in the sequel, plans for a Dead Rising TV series, and much more.
Keegan Connor Tracy and Marie Avgeropoulos on what attracted them to the Dead Rising franchise:
Keegan Connor Tracy: My role was actually supposed to be a man in the beginning. For whatever reason, they let me audition, even though it was supposed to be a man. I liked that. I liked that she was a strong character in that respect because originally she was meant to be a man. I felt that if they had written her as a woman, they wouldn’t have written her that way.

East Mission City beckons, and there’s a government conspiracy to uncover in the latest trailer for Dead Rising: Endgame, the video game movie sequel that’s due to shuffle onto Crackle later this month.
With the majority of the urban landscape now under quarantine, Endgame picks up at a time when Chase Carter – played once again by Jesse Metcalfe, who reprises his lead role from Watchtower – begins to unearth disconcerting details relating to a massive cover-up that could go a ways to explaining the origins of the zombie virus running rampant in the city.
The truth, however, is far worse, when our chainsaw-wielding hero uncovers the government’s scorched earth approach to dealing with the zombie epidemic – one that will seemingly bring an end to the mutated infection at the cost of millions of innocent lives. On board to postpone the apocalypse are Billy Zane, Dennis Haysbert, Marie Avgeropoulos,...
