The financial success of those films transformed them both into consistent franchises, and allowed Wan to direct non-horror crowd pleasers like Furious 7 and more recently Aquaman.

Earlier this week horror fans were in a tizzy over the announcement that two horror movie heavy weights, James Wan and Jason Blum were joining forces to create one monstrous mega horror studio. Blum said he was blown away by the love from fans. The move would merge Wan’s Atomic Monster production company and Blum’s Blumhouse productions. Recently the duo both happened to be at the American Cinematheque awards, where they ran into each other on the red carpet, according to Variety. “The industry reaction to our hopeful…

With that in mind, fans are curious as to how terrible Absolute Dominion must be for both merchants of B-tier cinema to jump ship at the same time. Written and directed by Punisher: War Zone‘s Lexi…

John Carpenter’s legendary slasher series has once more set up the dividing lines, and people are ready to debate the big swings taken in this Halloween finale. One person you won’t hear taking either side of the debate is writer/director Rob Zombie, as he’s actually had a good reason to avoid watching the Blumhouse trilogy.The horror director behind this…
