This Week's Notable Horror: 12/22 - 12/28

With Christmas just days away it's no surprise to see that this week's new releases are very scarce. In fact, only a few titles are coming out, namely FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S 2, which lands on PVOD tomorrow, while the ANACONDA remake hits theaters on Thursday, Christmas day. Check below for everything releasing this week.

Dear Jodi (2025)

REVIEWER RATING: 
4/10

I will bet that most people reading this review have heard of Jodi Arias, but less folks have heard or even remember the name Travis Alexander. Yes? No? Maybe?

This Week's Notable Horror: 12/15 - 12/21

It looks like the busy release weeks may be behind us now, as this week only offers a handful of new (mostly indie) titles. The biggest and most notable release is THE HOUSEMAID starring Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar. You can catch it in theaters this Friday. Check below to see what's coming this week.

Mouseboat Massacre (2025)

REVIEWER RATING: 
7/10

It’s 1997, and three friends are frantically trying to escape the clutches of a monstrous killer who has already wounded one of them and is approaching with devilish determination in his stance.

This Week's Notable Horror: 12/08 - 12/14

We've got another solid week of new releases with yet another near dozen flicks to catch. Specifically, THE CARPENTER'S SON and KEEPER both hit VOD tomorrow (if you missed'em in theaters). Meanwhile, Wednesday has a unique release, as festival fav. IT ENDS debuts on Letterboxd's new digital rental platform called Video Store.

Maskhead (2009)

REVIEWER RATING: 
2/10

This 2009 gory flick from Fred Vogel, has been remastered/re-released by Unearthed Films, causing a stir in the horror community. Since it’s accumulation of an added generation to round out its cult following, of course I needed to give this a go.  

Aladdin's Revenge (2026)

REVIEWER RATING: 
7/10

On the heels of Aladdin (my recently reviewed horror version of Disney’s magical faux-prince tale) comes Aladdin’s Revenge…the follow up which sheds more light to the darkness that has blanketed our heroine, Rachel (another strong performance from Devanny Pinn)

Good Boy (2025)

REVIEWER RATING: 
8/10

Outside of the obvious (friends, family, etc.), there are two things in this world that I absolutely love: Dogs…and horror movies!
