Search Articles10 Best Vampire Anime Every Horror Fan Should Watch
I’m not too proud to admit it: Horror Press is severely lacking in anime coverage. Among the hundreds of articles I’ve written, I have one singular editorial talking about an anime, and that’s my highlight on The Summer Hikaru Died.

And of all the oversights, how have we not talked about the best vampire anime?
Fantastic Fest: ‘Ghost in the Cell’ Review
If you’re not watching Indonesian horror, you’re missing out. The region is producing some of the craziest genre movies around right now, thanks in no small part to the efforts of writer-director Joko Anwar.

Fantastic Fest: ‘In a Violent Nature 2’ Review
One of the great pleasures of attending Fantastic Fest is the ability to occasionally see movies that won’t be out for many months. That’s especially true with the Secret Screenings, which this year included a work-in-progress print of In a Violent Nature 2, a film that doesn’t even have a release date yet and made for a wildly entertaining midnight movie surprise. While a few things may change between now and release, the cut shown at Fantastic Fest felt near-final.
