It’s been a hell of a spooky season. We’ve had a lot of fun bringing you a new horror feature every day. But it doesn’t have to end! Spooky can be a year-round thing.That’s why we compiled for you a list of some of our favorite horror movies, video games, and TV shows. This list couldn’t possibly be comprehensive, but we did try to curate for you a diverse list that looks at more than just horror genres.

There’s no doubt that The Crow managed to capture the imaginations of many Gen Xers and Millennials, like myself. Perhaps it was the combination of the death of Brandon Lee–son of legendary martial artist Bruce Lee–and the fact that The Crow managed to capture the zeitgeist of the younger generation at the time. It was unique visually, and edgy in a way that just wasn’t the same. It also had a fantastic soundtrack. You can read about Aaron Cynic’s thoughts on it here. I’m not

Horror and Halloween aren’t entirely about just scaring yourself silly. They’re a tapestry of emotions carefully seeded across a landscape of the dark and macabre. Thirty-two years ago, despite the tragic death of Brandon Lee on set during filming, The Crow hit theaters.

I know saying something is “the perfect” anything is a little bit fraught. It’s hard to satisfy everyone, and there’s so many different genres and individual taste to consider. Bold though it is to say this is the perfect Halloween Playlist, we’re gonna say it. Because this was the hard work of everyone at Culture Combine, and it crosses genre boundaries, spans decades, and includes deep cuts and pop culture favorites.

SOMA is Greek for “body” and while it’s an apt title, it’s also a bit ironic, as “body” is something SOMA plays fast and loose with. Taking the mechanics that made Penumbra: Overture and Amnesia: The Dark Descent hits, SOMA stays true to that formula while introducing a whole new level of body horror and existential dread. What makes a person a person? What happens when you copy consciousness? If you haven’t played SOMA, I highly recommend you just go and play it. Minor spoil

Animation rarely gets a fair shake, and this Halloween we want to remind you of all the amazing animated thrills and chills you can find.

Horror isn’t just a genre; it’s an amalgamation of pop culture, cozy traditions, and things that go bump in the night. This year, we're taking our 31 Days of Horror across the entire cultural spectrum. We’ll be taking a look at movies that scare us, games that kept us paranoid, scary books we cozy up with under blankets, music that sets that spooky tone and seasonal food we’re craving–or strange food you’d have to tie us up and force feed us. Whether you’re looking for someth

Sometimes you just want to sit down and watch a normal, run of the mill horror movie that is easy to follow with plenty of standard issue scares coming at you at a steady clip and totally not a batshit insane trip into a fantastical Japanese countryside where a supernatural house devours a pack of schoolgirls one by one in the most absurd and inventive way. And by sometimes I mean not today be cause we're talking about House (1977).

Horror isn't all jump scares, scary monsters, or disturbing imagery. While these motifs are the ones most associated with the genre, and lets be honest are the most fun, not everything falls into those visceral experiences. Sometimes a more nuanced story, with out all these easy to detect scares, are more indicative of the genre. Sometimes horror is just sitting in a pile of grief for the majority of its 110 minute runtime.. That is what Don't Look Now is.

The point is, sometimes you want to feel spooky but you feel sad. Sometimes you miss how Halloween used to be. This is the cure for that sort of melancholy, I promise. I have what some people consider a moral failing: a love for TV, and a love for commercials. Growing up I constantly got the disapproving eye from people who "didn't watch any screens at all" and "made a TV planter because that's how much TV we don't watch." Not that it bothered me. Nope, didn't both

i'm thinking of ending things stars Jessie Buckley as a young woman who realizes she is at an impasse in her relationship with Jake, played by Jessie Plemons. This happens just as they are taking a road trip to meet Jake's parents at their family farm. It's a perfect set up for a different movie, one that is accessible and maybe a straight forward examination of couple at the end of their time together. But thats not Charlie Kaufman's vibe and i'm thinking of ending things is

Unfortunately this is a movie that was ruined by its marketing. I am not the most strict about going into a movie blind, usually I think if the journey to the spoiler is good, the spoiler isn't actually a spoiler. But for this movie it absolutely is. Too much of the film relies on you knowing nothing about the story, the characters, and in order to enjoy the journey. Which is already a Herculean task in this modern age of everything ends up online from the word go. I think w

Just because the concept of something disgusts us here in the Western world (or outright frightens us) doesn’t mean that thing isn’t delicious or even a prized delicacy elsewhere. Still, there are certainly things that, if put on my plate, might make me run in the other direction.

Audition tends to be a big introduction to J-Horror. The film is practically ubiquitous with the the country's horror output, right their with Ringu. But unlike Ringu, Audition has maintained it origins, never getting a remake (note: there has been one in development for a long time) and for good reason. Audition is an incredible nuanced and subtle film that presents itself as one thing, transforms slowly into another, then hits you a bus of horror.

I love a good Halloween episode of a TV show. And I love any holiday special. I think it’s because I’m a child of the late 80s, and early 90s. This was THE era for holiday themed TV, and Halloween was my favorite. Suddenly your favorite shows got a little scarier – even the sitcoms. And shows that were already scary? Well, you could count on them doubling down on the horror.

We live in a world where the whole universes converging and smashing together are old hat and an expected plotline in even the most pedestrian of movies. But Coherence, a small budget film that takes place in one location, was doing it way back in 2013 and doing it well.

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is…well…not bad. Let's start there. While it's nowhere near the quality of the first, it's still worth a watch. Honestly, I think it has to do with all the typical pitfalls that come with sequels. Everything seems to always need to be one-upped from its predecessor - from the kills to Samara Weaving's incredible banshee scream- instead of letting things flow forward. The tone balance is there but the plotline veers off the edge of silliness, the ki
