Are you trapped in an alternatve universe filled with grayscale cosmic horror? Are you being stalked by an ancient vampire who loves tall shadows and quirky antiques? Either way, we hope you're in the mood for some throwbacks this week as we unravel vintage conspiracies with "History of the Occult" (Argentina & Mexico, 2020) and play with "finger demons" with the deliciously campy "Bloodstone: Subspecies II" (Romania & USA, 1993). We also preview acclaimed foreign horror flicks "Huesera: The Bone Woman" (Mexico & Peru, 2022), "Project Wolf Hunting" (South Korea, 2022) and "Subspecies V: Blood Rise" (Romania & USA, 2023).
