TV SHOWS
Creepshow season 3
The anthology Creepshow, based on the 1982 horror comedy hit, is back for a third season and is still the most fun you’ll ever have getting scared! In a series of vignettes, a comic book is brought to life, with terrors ranging from murder, creatures, monsters, and delusions to the mysterious and incomprehensible. You never know what you’ll find on the following page. It’ll premiere on the 23rd of September.
Slasher: Flesh & Blood
Slasher: Flesh & Blood stars horror legend David Cronenberg as an affluent, dysfunctional family who gathers on a secluded island for a reunion only to discover they’ll be pitted against one another in a vicious game of life and death, all while being hunted by a mystery masked killer. As the tension – and the dead count – rises, nothing is as it seems, and no one is safe.
MOVIES
Superhost
Teddy and Claire are travel vloggers that manage the “SUPERHOST” channel, where they travel and share their experiences in and around vacation homes, and have been successful at it until lately. When they meet Rebecca, the host of their most recent trip, they realise they have the perfect opportunity to generate material that people want to watch. They gradually understand that something is wrong with Rebecca, and when they look into it further, they discover a shocking truth. She isn’t looking for a good review; she is looking for something considerably worse.

Martyrs Lane
Leah, 10, lives with her parents and nasty older sister in a huge, run-down vicarage. She’s perplexed by her mother’s aloof demeanour and enthralled by the locket she wears around her neck. The vicarage seems to come alive with sounds at night. Leah notices the locket on the bathroom shelf one morning. She unlocks it and takes what she discovers inside, setting in motion a chain of events that would transform the sounds she hears at night into something far more terrifying.
