Director Osgood Perkins does well to draw his viewer in with a beautifully haunting score and unnerving cinematography, making this one grim re-telling worth checking out at least once. Though it has been met with mixed reviews, ‘ Gretel and Hansel‘ offers astounding performances by veteran actress Alice Krige as the films iconic Witch of the woods and Sophia Lillis as lead Gretel. The children accept all Holda has to offer, with little thought as to what may be asked of them in return. The children soon discover a quaint cottage where a fragile old woman Holda ( Alice Krige) offers fresh food and bed. After being thrown out of their mother’s home, Gretel ( Sophia Lillis) leads her younger brother, Hansel ( Samuel Leakey), through the woods in search of food and work. Gretel and Hansel – Now Streaming Alice Krige as “The Witch” in ‘Gretel and Hansel’.ĭirected by Osgood Perkins, ‘ Gretel and Hansel’ is a terrifyingly dark and unique vision to one of history’s most famous childhood fairy tales. We also cannot forget John Carpenter’s haunted coastal horror ‘ The Fog‘ no, not the remake…thankfully. Allow me to highlight some of my favorite films returning to Shudder for March including ‘ Gretel and Hansel‘ and ‘ The Company of Wolves‘ grim re-telling’s of popular children’s fairy tales. Now that we’ve removed the veil for the new exclusive titles dropping this month, I think it’s time we reveal the returning classics jump starting our transition into spring for 2023. After experiencing a bizarre sexual awakening while using LSD as an alternative treatment for Johnny, she soon uncovers the family’s dark secrets as things begin to become unhinged. His mother Rebecca ( Kate Foster) is an accomplished author currently focused on her newest book release, while his father Jacob ( Myko Olivier) spends his days in the backyard working on frivolous carpentry projects. Millicent ( Morgan Saylor), a disturbed college student working on her thesis about children with severe allergies, is hired to babysit little Johnny ( Danilo Crovetti), a sickly, mute child who suffers from every allergy under the sun. Starting off this list we begin with director Mercedes Bryce Morgan and writer Leah Saint Marie’s latest film ‘ Spoonful of Sugar‘, now currently streaming.

As we like to do here at HauntedMTL, let’s kick off March with Shudder’s newest exclusives currently streaming now and in the coming weeks. We also graciously received the wildly fun ‘ The Last Drive-In: Joe Bob’s Vicious Vegas Valentine” special, with season 5 currently in production and premiering later this year though it can’t come soon enough. While it is true that the release schedule for the start of 2023 on Shudder has been minor and slightly mixed, with films such as the much talked about low-budget indie horror ‘ Skinamarink‘, the surprisingly entertaining horror comedy ‘ Sorry About the Demon‘, and writer/director Neil Marshall’s return to the genre with ‘ The Lair‘. Jackson “hold onto your butts” and let’s dive right into Shudder’s March 2023 release schedule. Patrick’s Day celebrations, and of course a slew of new releases on Shudder to satisfy the horror fiend in us all.
With the new month comes the shifting from winter to spring as death beautifully resurrects back to life, drunken St. Mutant family, it is time to rejoice as we wave goodbye to the dreary month that was February and begin our steady strut into March.
I think we are all a bit Captain Howdy in some aspect. Did Snider go a bit too far in insane isolation? Give the movie a whirl and find out. (For the record: If you are on his show enough to have your GPS listing the target house as a ‘favourite’ then you might want to rethink your life choices.) It taps into those fears and gives us a bit of a ‘look at me!’ type venture.Ĭan you identify with Snider’s character of Captain Howdy? Isn’t that the sign of a good writer? No matter how much of a monster the villain is, there is something identifiable about the man. The movie feeds in on our fears of the online creepoid stalking the net waiting to meet either a young girl/boy or Chris Hansen.
#Strangeland movie 2015 free#
Snider writes this film which is part creepfest and part warning of a pre-dawn internet free for all. This movie made me see Dee Snider in a different way. I remember seeing Twisted Sister live with Sebastian Bach before and stuff like that sticks with you (in a good or bad way). What brought me to the movie was Dee Snider. I think I had to rob a RedBox to watch it. ‘Stay away from Captain Howdy.’ That is the lyric, isn’t it? I saw Strangeland a few years ago.
