STARBURST returns to Haddonfield and catches up with Michael Myers for HALLOWEEN. Not only do we preview the new movie, we take a look back at what’s gone before and chat to some of the key talent behind the films.

We also look at the history of the SLASHER FILM with an in-depth guide to the subgenre.

Elsewhere, we take a look at some of the most hilarious BOND spoofs in anticipation of JOHNNY ENGLISH STRIKES AGAIN and catch up with the DC superheroes of THE CW, namely ARROW, THE FLASH, SUPERGIRL, the LEGENDS OF TOMORROW, and new addition BATWOMAN.

If that’s not enough, we talk to Caspar Noé, controversial director of CLIMAX, and find out about the new book that delves into the history of London’s infamous SCALA CINEMA.

In our regular features, we take a look at ADAM GREEN’s backwoods shocker HATCHET and look forward to the new series of DOCTOR WHO.

Plus all your favourite COLUMNS, NEWS, REVIEWS and much MORE from the worlds of SCI-FI, HORROR and FANTASY!
