HBO Max is putting the nightmarish ax to a classic horror franchise

The massive horror genre is notable home to an array of long-standing franchises, and while many of them are timeless, it turns out Wes Craven’s A Nightmare on Elm Street series is in jeopardy. According to HBO Max’s updated catalog, the horror series is expected to be removed from the streaming service on the final day of November, which allows the platform to fully prepare for the onslaught of holiday movies, television shows, and specials. With that being said, if you’re interested in having a binge marathon of the Nightmare movies, then now is definitely the time to do so before Christmas is in the air.

Jason Blum’s Halloween costume is creepier (and more accurate) than any Blumhouse movie

Blumhouse Productions is undoubtedly a giant in the realm of cinematic horror, with the company producing several big-name genre projects over the last few years — which includes David Gordon Green’s Halloween trilogy. And while the company’s tag is attached to plenty of creepy-esque projects, none can compare to boss Jason Blum’s Halloween costume of choice for this year’s Blumhouse party. With Blum partnering up with The Conjuring’s James Wan, the duo is set to release M3GAN this January — a horror movie based on an artificially intelligent doll that starts creating some unexpected bloodshed. Blum looks absolutely uncanny in the costume — to the point where we’re starting to wonder if he’s actually M3GAN.

Horror fans rally around an incomparable genre icon

While horror actors like Patrick Wilson (The Conjuring, Insidious) and Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead franchise) are often the center of the spotlight, horror fans are adamant that another long-standing name deserves to be a major focus in the genre — and that would be Justin Long. Throughout his career, the gifted performer has starred in several notable horror movies — including Jeepers Creepers, Drag Me to Hell, and Barbarian. All of these movies, despite minor flaws, have been recognized and celebrated by genre diehards, most of which are convinced that the key ingredient of Long is the glue that brings the entire project together. It’s definitely hard to argue that one.

Catch you back here on Monday (aka Halloween!), spooky lovers, for another daily horror roundup.
