For our third movie of January we are sitting down and talking In A Violent Nature!

The 2024 Canadian slasher written and directed by Chris Nash. Starring Ry Barrett, Andrea Pavlovic, and Lauren-Marie Taylor, this unique horror film has been described as an “ambient slasher” for its eerie, atmospheric approach to terror.

The story follows a mute killer who is accidentally resurrected in the Ontario wilderness by a group of unsuspecting teenagers. What follows is a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, as the killer stalks and murders his victims. What sets this film apart is its unique perspective—much of the action unfolds through the eyes of the killer himself, adding a chilling twist to the classic slasher formula.

We now have 10 codenames for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights event, but what do they mean—and why are they all named after flowers?

In previous years, these codenames have sometimes hinted at connections to the properties or themes of the haunted houses. Will that trend continue this year?

Only time will tell, but let’s dive in and see if we can crack the codes!

For January, we're taking one final look back at 2024 and highlighting some of the best horror offerings from Shudder!

To kick things off, we're diving into the supernatural smash hit, Late Night With The Devil! Written, directed, and edited by Colin and Cameron Cairnes, this chilling film stars David Dastmalchian, Laura Gordon, Ian Bliss, Fayssal Bazzi, and Ingrid Torelli.

Blending "found footage" and documentary-style filmmaking, the story unfolds during a Halloween 1977 late-night talk show. In a desperate attempt to boost ratings, the host invites an allegedly possessed girl onto the show—with terrifying consequences.
