Spring is in the air and there are plenty of great films and TV shows to watch on Horror Channel each week. Here are some of our favourites for the next seven days:

Tuesday May 4th, 1pm – Monster! (1999)

This is a fun meta creature feature that involves a movie monster that appears in real life every three years in the town the films were made. Directed by the late John Lafia (Child’s Play 2) and featuring the much-missed M. Emmet Walsh.

Wednesday May 5th, 9pm – Reborn (2015)

A morgue attendant raises a baby that was thought dead but revived by a freak electrical charge. Things go wrong when she turns 16 and attempts to find her mother. Directed by Julian Richards (The Last Horror Movie) and starring Tess Stern and Barbara Crampton.

Friday May 7th, 8am The Time Tunnel ‘Rendezvous with Yesterday’

A great reason to get up early as the classic ‘60s series begins another run from the very beginning in this weekday morning slot. This opening episode sees our heroes on board the Titanic, one day before the tragic incident with an iceberg. Michael Rennie guests as the Captain and keep your eyes peeled for a young Dennis Hopper as one of the passengers.

Saturday May 8th, 9pm – The Super (2017)

Patrick Flueger (The 4400) stars as the ex-cop who works as a superintendent of three apartment blocks who begins to suspect his co-super (Val Kilmer) of being involved in several disappearances. Kilmer is as charismatic as he’s ever been in this exciting, twisted thriller.

Sunday May 9th, 9pm – The Vault (2017)

James Franco is the assistant manager of a bank that’s being robbed by a desperate group. When he directs them to the basement vault, things start getting very strange and going very wrong.

Tune into Horror Channel on Sky 317, Virgin 149, Freeview 68, Freesat 138.
