When Rue Morgue decided to conduct an interview with Uwe Boll, they were met with at least a few exclamations of disdain from long-time readers on their message board, people who would normally just skip parts they’re not interested in. I find that an interview with a filmmaker who may be considered “bad” can […]
A man returns to his hometown to uncover the decades-old mystery that resulted in his wife’s murder. With puppets.
I think it’s admirable that after creating the Saw franchise and initiating the recent trend of gritty horror films James Wan and Leigh Whannell have decided to take a step in a different direction with their […]
First there was news of Frank Henenlotter’s triumphant return to horror, now another batch of ’80s NYC trash peddlers are making a comeback. After discovering that there was a website devoted to a Street Trash sequel, Creature Corner rang up producer Roy Frumkes to find out if the rumour is true.

Surprisingly, horror was almost completely shut out of every category it was eligible for. The big loser of the night was Basic […]
The New York Comic-Con wasn’t the only shindig going down this month. George A. Romero appeared at Haunt X over a week ago, and SyFyPortal caught his Q + A.
Someone else asks, “Why do the dead come back?”

I was doing housework last night, so I decided to have the Academy Awards playing in the background as I tidied. This was the first time in years that I had watched or listened to it. One thing that I had forgotten was how moved I usually get when some of the less-known […]
The infamous gossips at Page Six of the New York Post reveal the story behind Eli Roth’s new poster for Hostel II, which shows actress Bijou Phillips nude and beheaded. Uh oh.
Even better, the photo shoot for it was at the El Royale apartment complex in Hollywood with all the windows open. “The neighbors […]
