We've been deep in the heart of Texas—Austin, to be exact—for our FANTASTIC FEST 2025 coverage! From midnight screenings to surprise premieres, we've got the highlights, the weirdness, and the best genre gems to put on your radar. But first, we lock the doors and draw the blinds for our review of THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 2. Does this long-awaited sequel breathe new life into one of horror's most unsettling franchises, or is it just knocking on nostalgia's door?
