This Halloween season, Rue Morgue ventures into the dark woods to unearth the ROOTS OF FOLK HORROR in anticipation of the upcoming release of ALL THE HAUNTS BE OURS: A COMPENDIUM OF FOLK HORROR massive box set, and more.
Robert Eggers’ surreal and striking chiller, featuring two of the year’s best performances, now has a date for VOD, digital and disc release.
RUE MORGUE brings hell home for the holidays with two of the season’s most chilling releases: THE LODGE and THE LIGHTHOUSE, featuring exclusive words with filmmakers VERONIKA FRANZ, SEVERIN FIALA and ROBERT EGGERS. Also in this issue: CAN HORROR KILL?; Sweden’s new nightmare in KOKO-DI KOKO-DA; GHOSTS OF THE STANLEY HOTEL, and more!
It sees its creator ably beating the sophomore jinx, sustaining a mood that’s every bit as entrancingly eerie as THE WITCH’s.
