Are you as excited as I am? If so, scroll down to learn more about these three new releases!
AFTER MIDNIGHT (1989)
Synopsis: "Welcome to Fear 101. There will be a test." Higher education is about to dive into the depths of hell with this trilogy of terror that will scare you senseless. Marg Helgenberger (Species) stars in this psychological thriller that's guaranteed to get inside your head ... and stay there!
According to Professor Edward Derek, the only way to truly understand the psychology of fear is to be afraid ... very afraid! So he invites his class home for a night of three spine-chilling stories: First, a married couple lose their heads in a haunted house; next ravenous guard dogs prowl for cute coeds; and finally a psychopathic killer stalks a terrified telephone operator. But as the frightened freshmen get a hands-on lesson in real fear, the extracurricular creep-fest enters a class of its own, with a fiery final test that could scare the students to death!

Synopsis: "Metal rules … but Hell is eternal." A family faces off with evil itself in a house from hell in this hard-rocking shocker from Sean Byrne, the director of THE LOVES ONES.
Diehard metal-head and struggling artist Jesse (Ethan Embry, CHEAP THRILLS) moves with his wife (Shiri Appleby, UNREAL) and daughter (Kiara Glasco) to a rural Texas town, unaware that the house they got for an unbelievable deal comes with a grisly history. Their dream home turns into a nightmare as disturbing demonic occurrences culminate with the appearance of Ray (Pruitt Taylor Vince, Identity), the home’s former resident – who’s destined to do the devil’s bidding.
Featuring the music of Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, and Sunn O))), THE DEVIL'S CANDY is “the complete midnight movie package … characters to root for, narrative, and a spot-on mix of scares [to] mess with your head” (Collider)!
