So much better than we expected! Natalie Grace in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) ★★★★ The first half of 2026 certainly made a statement in the horror genre. Reverberations will be felt across Hollywood as studios reassess what constitutes a blockbuster. The recent critical success of Sinners, Weapons, and The Substance appears to be bearing fruit. The results may have led to a diverse slate of offerings for 2026, and it is reflected in the wide array of horror offerings so far this year. If variety is your preference, then you have been in luck, so far. The unimaginable financial and critical success of Obsession and Backrooms, particularly given their low cost, have re-written the horror producer’s playbook, and will have a lasting impact for years to come. The Scariest Things evaluated what we’ve seen so far, and have come back with a report card of our favorites. The Mid Major – Large Indie Productions: It will be interesting to do an autopsy of 2026’s horror fare when we do our year end assessment. This year’s crop has been notably light on mid-major productions so far. The roaring successes we’ve seen thus far have been from the deep indie filmmakers. Backrooms, Undertone, Hokum, and Obsession. All original titles, and produced for less than $5 million. These are not the type of films you would typically predict would be box office hits. But, they outperformed any reasonable expectation, particularly startling for Backrooms and Obsession, which will have cinema economists trying to figure out the alchemy. The Major Studios: There were only a few major studio franchise sequels this year. All of them capable, but none of them superseding their source material. Scream 7 did very well at the box office, but it failed to make a big impression. Evil Dead Burn was a very violent, very intense outing that didn’t connect in the way its predecessors have. Scary Movie also did well on its $30 million budget, earning $210 million, its long layoff didn’t hurt its popularity, despite the derivative humor. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was a hit with critics (including our own Liz Williams) but it’s turn from zombies may have hurt it in the box office, as it probably will not make its budget back. The notable big comeback was Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, which gives horror fans hope that Universal has gotten their monsterverse back on track, and remembered how to deliver a vicious movie with a good story. The Festival Circuit: Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get out to as many film festivals this year as we would have liked, but we still managed to review a lot of great small indie horror films. Our traditional rotation of SXSW, Overlook, Portland Horror, and Popcorn Frights all provided very interesting films from emerging filmmakers. Even the bigger festival this year were heavy on small indie productions, and there were a lot of good offerings. We didn’t discuss all of them in our Podcast, but you can review a lot of the movies we saw with links on the images below. There is an emerging trend of release schedules for many of the best independent horror films, relative to the festival circuit. Open at SXSW (Or sometimes Sundance), get some buzz, go to Overlook to validate the buzz, and then release in the early summer. It can be a big momentum builder. Last year it was The Ugly Stepsister (Oscar Nom), and Good Boy that were the big beneficiaries of that combination. This year it was Obsession, Hokum, and Leviticus. Sometimes Panic Fest will factor into the equation, depending on when runs relative to Overlook. Popcorn Frights still brought a massive catalogue for viewing, but this year was more reliant on reperatory films. Some of my favorite films this year were horror adjacent, and all of their streaming content was small indie productions. Our favorite local festival, The Portland Horror Film Festival had an unusually large amount of feature films, and the best part was that almost all of the directors participated in the festival. We were fortunate to get interviews with all of them. Check out our Podcasts for the interviews. It was a diverse group of films, and not a dud among them. What is Still Coming in 2026? Probably the most intriguing film still due out is a new take on Resident Evil by Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian and Weapons. This is a major tonal shift for Sony. No more Mia Jovovic or Paul W.S. Anderson. Video game translations are usually dubious, and the franchise squandered its potential. It became more superhero and less horror. However, Sony is gambling that with the right creator, it might revitalize the legacy, and Cregger may inject real scares into this franchise for the first time since the original. We shall see. The trailer looks great. Other Mommy, which arrives on October 9, has some incredibly disturbing visuals. Jessica Chastain stars, and Rob Savage (Host) directs. This uncanny-valley movie came late to my radar and is intriguing. Later this August, the Insidious franchise is issuing Insidious: Out of the Further. Lin Shaye returns, Leigh Whannell writes this, and it has a banger trailer. This franchise has maintained some of the scariest PG-13 fare, but the sequels have been a gradual decline in quality. We’ll see how this goes. Beware Boiúna might give us the Anaconda movie we wish we got earlier this year, and wipe the slate clean from the Jack Black/Paul Rudd disappointment. It’s R-rated, and features reliable scream queen Jessica Rothe, along with Logan Marshall-Green and Kiana Madeira in the Amazon. The trailer impressed me with the snake’s monstrousness. Another fascinating man-vs-nature survival tale is Whalefall, a terrifying concept in which a scuba diver is in jeopardy of being consumed by a sperm whale if the giant squid the whale has snagged doesn’t kill him first. Clayface will attempt to bridge the superhero and horror genres, which is no easy feat. Will it have enough horror for horror fans, and will it have enough fealty to the Batman universe to appeal to the comic book fans? Mike Flanagan wrote it, and it promises real R-rated body horror, so it could be very interesting. Lastly, Robert Eggers’ period piece Werwulf is getting the full Eggers treatment, in monochrome and as moody as you could possibly want. Hopefully it will get the stink of the Wolf Man out of our popcorn. Just give me a great transformation scene, please. Keep an eye out for It Ends, a festival darling from 2025 which is finally getting a limited release this year. It is a brilliant, if melancholy purgatory metaphor. If you enjoyed Backrooms, you should check this film out if you are lucky enough to have it showing in a theater near you. Of course, some smaller films will come out of the shadows and inevitably make our end-of-the-top-10 lists, but this is what we know so far.

We begin learning Likutei Moharan Torah 23 Tinyana b'iyun — one of the Rebbe's shortest Torahs, and one of the deepest. Rebbe Nachman opens with a mashal everyone knows: people are dancing at a simcha, and they grab the one standing outside the circle — the one in sadness, in marah shechorah — and pull him in against his will, until he too is dancing. Then the Rebbe reveals the nimshal: you can do the same thing with your own emotions. When a moment of simcha comes, don't just enjoy it — chase down your worry, your ache, your sadness, drag it into the circle, and watch it convert into joy itself. In this first class we build the map of the Torah and learn how to ask questions on every word: • The mashal and the nimshal: forcing the marah shechorah into the simcha • "Sason v'simcha yasigu, v'nasu yagon va'anacha" — chasing the sadness that flees from joy • Why simcha and atzvus cannot exist in the same moment • The Sitra Achra: where yagon va'anacha really comes from • The biggest words in the Torah: HaSimcha means Kedusha • Three leshonos — hasimcha, sameach, besimcha — and why every word is medayek • The Arizal's secret: b'simcha is the same letters as machshavah — joy lives in the mind • Moach shalit al halev: you can control your feelings, because thought comes before emotion • The black dot and the white page: why we focus on the one thing wrong instead of the thousands of things right • A sneak preview of milsa d'shtusa — the Rebbe's advice to do something silly Bring a notebook — write down your questions, share the Torah with a friend, and learn it b'chavrusa. The tachlis is not to learn the Torah but to live it. #LikuteiMoharan #RebbeNachman #Breslov #Simcha #Torah23 #WomensShiur #Joy #Emunah #TorahStudy

Is life truly black and white? Explore 'the other side' and the art of embracing complexity. --- Join and support the community: https://www.creationspaths.com/ This podcast episode explores the complexities of dichotomies, focusing on the concept of "the other side" as a way to view opposing perspectives without oversimplifying them into black-and-white distinctions. Charlie and Brian discuss the limitations of rigid labels such as good versus evil and stress the importance of nuance, redemption, and change. Drawing on insights from Hermetic Kabbalah, Christian teachings, and personal experiences, they emphasize that division is often a tool of obstruction and argue for the value of discernment in addressing divisive issues. The conversation also touches on the dangers of extremism, the role of sacred spaces, and the ongoing journey toward unity and understanding.

In this episode we discuss:How a person's dreams can be another indication that their spiritual standing isn't idealHow meditating upon one's low spiritual stance can lead to a humility that can instigate hatred and towards their animal soul which conceals G-dly reality. How and why subduing the animal soul in such a manner will cause the light of their G-dly soul to naturally shine through An example of this in the story of the spies in scripture which illustrates how all Jews are "believers" and "children of believers" and how Even the Sitra Achra doesn't have doubts regarding belief in G-d, as illustrated by the story of the harlot in the Zohar. Music by Shoshannah.   Follow us on:  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGGTknXIYx1DScUYJe2nupwFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/It-Is-Taught-101805165658211Twitter: https://twitter.com/itistaughtInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/itistaughtpodcast/Support the show

In this episode we talk about how any speech or thought that doesn't express the will of G-d or that isn't directed towards serving G-d is sourced in the Sitra Achra (i.e other side), as G-d can only dwell within something which is nullified to Him. Music by Shoshannah.   Follow us on:  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGGTknXIYx1DScUYJe2nupwFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/It-Is-Taught-101805165658211Twitter: https://twitter.com/itistaughtInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/itistaughtpodcast/Support the show
