Sure there's Elm Street and Camp Crystal Lake, but there's just something extra special about Texas when it comes to terror.

Our neighbors in the Sooner State are awfully interested in the villainous chainsaw wielding Texan.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre isn't on this list because the writer felt like that would have been just plain lazy.

Maybe it's because I'm new and stereotypes can sometimes be fun, but I really thought Leatherface would be a given in Texas.

If you're wanting to delve into the dark side of the Lone Star State, be sure to fire up these five movies as we get closer to Halloween.

The first three Paranormal Activity movies, released in successive years from 2009-2011, made over $577 million worldwide. The fourth movie made half what the previous film did, and the fifth, a Latin-American themed spinoff subtitled The Marked Ones, made even less than that. The film built up a complicated mythology and then seemed to abandon it all. The next, and reportedly final, Paranormal Activity movie will arrive in theaters this fall (in 3D, no less) and promises to reveal all the film’s secrets. Now you can watch the trailer for the latest installment and see if you still care.

How many times in your life have you snuck up on someone and scared them? Three, maybe four times? The Lazarus Effect is the kind of horror movie where people do that constantly. It’s basically their standard greeting; instead of “Hello!” they jump on people from behind, sometimes while wearing pig masks. It doesn’t make much sense, but they’re not doing it because it’s logical — they’re doing it because this is a bargain basement horror film and you take the scares wherever you can get them.

The idea of a movie about an evil mirror tormenting and killing people over the years may seem a little silly, but 'Oculus' makes it work. Set in two time frames, it tells the story of how the "Lasser Glass" destroyed one family and how the survivors reunite years later to exact their revenge. We have an exclusive look at the history of this (thankfully fictional) object, narrated by sta

I will watch a horror movie every now and then.  I stopped watching them because they weren't scary.  However, when I ran across this video I thought, "OK, it is only two minutes, so if it isn't scary I won't waste much time."  However by the end of it my heart was racing and I realized that this video is scarier than most feature length horror movies.  You be the judge.  Watch it with t

We're just a few days away from the debut of 'Paranormal Activity' spinoff 'The Marked Ones,' and today the folks behind the film have debuted a brand new teaser as part of their "Scream in the New Year" campaign. Partnering with Shock Till You Drop, they've released this teaser, entitled "Prayer," to help scoot you a little closer to the edge of your seat. We've been hearing s

Paramount Pictures first announced a 'Pet Sematary' remake years ago with talks of setting Alexandre Aja ('The Hills Have Eyes') in the director's chair. Now after all this time the studio is finally settling on a different man of horror to take the helm.

James Wan's 'Insidious: Chapter 2' opened at $41 million over the weekend -- for a film that only cost around $5 million to make, that's a massive success. Combine that with his $40 million opening for this summer's 'The Conjuring' (making it one of the most successful horror films of all time), and James Wan has become the horror master. FilmDistrict agrees, and the studio is already moving ahead
