Fri Sep 19 16:30:00 UTC 2025: **Horror Headlines: From Regal’s Classic Screams to a “HIM” Flop**
This week in horror news, fans have a lot to sink their teeth into.
Regal Cinemas is launching “31 Screams On Screen,” a program offering classic horror films for just $8.99 a ticket throughout October 2025. With themed blocks each week and discounts for Regal Crown Club members, it’s a budget-friendly way to relive theatrical horror nostalgia.
However, not all news is good. Jordan Peele’s new sports-based horror film, “HIM,” is facing harsh criticism. Reviews are calling it a “flimsy fumble” and a disappointment, leaving Peele searching for the consistent fanbase he found with “Get Out.”
On a lighter note, Graham King, producer of “The Departed,” is teaming up with the writers of “Violent Night” for “Dead Drunk,” a horror comedy about two women trapped in a vineyard with a terrifying secret. Their only hope for survival? Staying drunk all night.
Magnolia Pictures released a teaser for “The Carpenter’s Son,” a dark tale inspired by the “apocryphal Infancy Gospel of Thomas” starring Nicolas Cage.
**Other horror headlines include:**
* First-look photos of the “Anaconda” reboot have been released.
* A new “Halloween” game is in development by the same team behind “Friday the 13th: The Game.”
* Lin Shaye is confirmed to return for “Insidious 6.”
* A trailer dropped for Hulu’s “Murdaugh: Death in the Family” starring Patricia Arquette.
