Make sure you have had all your booster shots and stay indoors in April as the Infection Season takes over Horror Channel.

Every Saturday throughout April there’s a chance to catch some of the most infectious horror films of all time, starting with the double salvo of Danny Boyle’s 28 Days Later and the sequel 28 Weeks Later. The remake of George Romero’s The Crazies and M. Night Shyamalan’s The Happening round the season off.

Also in April, you can experience the brilliant Turbo Kid, and the fabulously fun B-movie homage Spiders 3D, which will both receiving its UK TV Premieres.

Three films to put in your diary as must-sees are the long-awaited sequels to Alfred Hitchcock’s seminal shocker Psycho. Original star Anthony Perkins returns as Norman Bates in Psycho II, Psycho III, and Psycho IV: The Beginning.

With premieres for the slasher Cry Wolf, Sarah Michelle Geller in the supernatural thriller The Return, and the brilliant Tobe Hooper classic The Funhouse, there’s plenty to keep you entertained and terrified as we wait for spring to actually really begin.
