For the Christmas fiends out there, the best of both worlds are available in Casper’s Haunted Christmas and Krampus, also hitting the streamer on October 1. It’s fun for what it is, truthfully, and does feature Mary Elizabeth Winstead doing what she does best as Mary Todd Lincoln. They don’t all pan out, but it’s a worthwhile entry in the storied canon of Craven’s career.Įlsewhere, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter hits, so that’s something.
#INSIDIOUS 2 FULL MOVIE MOVIE#
In the vein of Craven’s own Shocker, it’s a slasher movie that takes big risks. Sure, it’s confounding, a tonal mess, and unusually resistant to violence at the most arbitrary of times, but it remains remarkably stylish. Widely derided at the time, My Soul to Take is better than it’s often given credit for.
On the same day, Wes Craven’s My Soul to Take, his last feature barring Scream 4, hits Peacock.

There’s even the premiere and subsequent release of Peacock-exclusive miniseries A Friend of the Family, a dramatization of a story previously covered in Netflix’s acclaimed documentary Abducted in Plain Sight.

Love or hate David Gordon Green’s contemporary Halloween trilogy, there’s no denying Halloween Ends is one of this season’s most anticipated horror releases.
