Fewhorrorsubgenres are as popular as the seminal “zombie apocalypse.” These movies usually see some (hopefully) endearing group of characters band together in the face of an undead horde, creating some unique version of these beings that always reduce them to one key trait:a hunger for human flesh. There are countless films in this subgenre, each trying to instill this well-practiced concept with something distinct. And from this race to come up with the most bizarre plots out of the zombie formula, we were giftedZombeavers....

Psychedelics Are To Blame for One of ‘Godzilla x Kong’s Funniest Lines

The characters ofKing KongandGodzillahave much more complex backstories than their current interactions would suggest. 1933’sKing Kongwas a groundbreaking achievement in stop-motion visual effects that presented a dire warning about the dangers of messing with nature. Similarly, 1954’sGodzillaserved as a powerful reminder of the consequences of using nuclear weapons, and felt particularly relevant in Japan during the decade following the end of World War II. Any semblance of these dramatic roots has been completely expunged by Legendary’sMonsterVerse, a shared continuity that brings together Kong, Godzilla, Mothra, Ghidorah, Mechagodzilla and many other kaiju creatures....
