From Writer/Director/Producer Chris Lamartina and Writer/Producer Jimmy George, the duo behind Wnuf Halloween Special and Call Girl of Cthulhu, comes the clickbait horror satire What Happens Next Will Scare You, a horror anthology that has been flying under the radar the last couple years due to the lack of a high profile home video release.
But Terror Vision is here to save the day, with the Blu-ray debut of What Happens Next Will Scare You now available for pre-order! It’ll begin shipping out in January 2024.
What Happens Next Will Scare You includes a wrap around story and eight spooky anthology segments.
“Working late on their Halloween feed, a motley crew of clickbait journalists share their top thirteen scariest viral videos. When an early entry curses the snarky hipsters, they must distinguish fact from fiction before a tidal wave of terrifying supernatural activity leads to real-life murder.

Growing up there was a stack of VHS tapes that sat in the built-in cabinet beneath our 27 inch living room television. The large white clamshell cases housing Disney tapes were propped against the side to the left while my brother’s wrestling tapes were stacked to their right, as though there to keep the Disneys in line. Beside them sat my mom’s Christmas videos as well as the handful of movies my parents saw fit to own. Finally, in a messy pile at the end, were my tapes. No clamshells or box art, these cassettes bore nothing but a white label marked with the sloppy penmanship of my own hand.
Still, despite the crossed out titles and unintelligible scribbles vaguely describing the contents within, the fragmented, commercial laden videos carried a sense of discovery with them. A tangible feel of date, time and place that no other form of...

King Charles III is forging his own path as the new monarch of the United Kingdom. However, he is continuing the late Queen Elizabeth II’s legacy when it comes to one of Her Majesty’s favorite hobbies — horse racing. After selling a few of his mother’s horses because “you can’t keep them all,” the new sovereign is picking up where she left off by sending off four juveniles to training for the upcoming racing season.

Queen Elizabeth was an avid breeder of racehorses during her lifetime, and she also enjoyed riding and attended races. After her death in September 2022, King Charles chose to sell 14 of her horses through the Tattersalls auction house.

As someone who has been a big fan of their previous collaborative efforts, I was extremely excited once I learned that Chris Lamartina and Jimmy George had yet another film project for us horror fans to enjoy. Their latest is entitled What Happens Next Will Scare You, and while I won’t give much away about it (because really half the fun of the film are all the little surprises), what I can say is that if you’re someone who has enjoyed the Wnuf Halloween Special and Call Girl of Cthulhu, then Whnwsy is going to be precisely your jam (as the kids say).
Currently, Lamartina and George have taken to Kickstarter to self-distribute What Happens Next Will Scare You, putting the film directly in the hands of viewers, and I thought the time was right to catch up with the duo to talk about their long journey of making Whnwsy,...

The following contains spoilers for Wnuf Halloween Special.
In 1987, local news station Wnuf held a special publicity stunt on Halloween night. Reporter Frank Stewart, joined by paranormal investigators and a priest, entered the infamous (and presumably haunted) Webber House, an empty home that was the site of a gruesome double murder. Hoping to get some ratings by doing a live call-in séance and an exorcism, Stewart and the others bit off more than they could chew as the event went completely awry. While the televised special ended in confusion, a special VHS tape was discovered years later that showed what really happened that Halloween.
That’s the plot of Wnuf Halloween Special, released in 2013 by director Chris Lamartina. Told in the form of a news broadcast and follow-up special that were taped off TV, the found footage movie has garnered a cult following due to its unique 80s throwback style,...

A wonderfully weird and comedic love letter to H.P. Lovecraft, Call Girl of Cthulhu is the latest from the director Chris Lamartina, the filmmaker behind last year’s endlessly charming 80’s throwback project, the Wnuf Halloween Special. This time, Lamartina and his co-writer Jimmy George tackle modern relationships and Cthulhu mythologies, resulting in truly one of the more insanely fun and well-conceived low-budget horror movies I’ve seen all year.
Call Girl of Cthulhu follows nice guy Carter Wilcox (David Phillip Carollo), a young artist desperate to lose his virginity and even more desperate to find the perfect girl to lose it to. Carter thinks he finally has found “the one” when he meets a local call girl Riley (Melissa O’Brien), who frequents the apartment building he lives in with his cranky roommate (Nicolette Le Faye). Unfortunately for Carter (and his intended), Riley has been targeted by a group...

It’s entirely possible that the best new movie for this Halloween season is a scrappy, Diy found-footage effort from Baltimore called Wnuf Halloween Special. Writer-director Chris Lamartina has been toiling in the no-budget horror trenches for awhile, but Wnuf (cowritten by Jimmy George and Pat Storck) could be his hot ticket to cult success. I doubt any other movie in 2013 debuted on VHS before DVD, but that’s just one of the many things that makes Wnuf Halloween Special special. The movie is presented as a taped broadcast of a late-'80s news program where some local anchors are trying their hand at getting as sensational as the big leagues by executing a live, Halloween-night investigation into the supposedly haunted Weber House where a mass murder occurred. The...

It was last November when we first told you about Witch’s Brew, the beer-soaked gross-out horror comedy about what happens when a pissed off witch lays a curse upon your lager. A new trailer proclaims this blood-battered brewski is ready for serving.
Those of you living in Baltimore, Maryland, will get first crack at Witch’s Brew when it makes its world premiere at The Charles Theater on October 19th. Here are the rest of the gory details regarding the impending fermentation of the evil that is Witch’s Brew, followed by the special premiere trailer:
Just in time for Halloween, Baltimore filmmakers Chris Lamartina and Jimmy George unleash bottles of beer and buckets of blood in the gory horror-comedy Witch's Brew.
Synopsis: When two micro-brewers screw over the town witch, she curses their latest batch of alcohol. Anyone who drinks it suffers a gruesome, ironic demise.

Usually here at Big Daddy Horror Reviews, we stick mainly to the business of spotlighting horror film features, both short and feature length. However, whenever we think a worthwhile endeavor comes along, we just got to spotlight it. From the creative mind of micro budget horror filmmaker Chris Lamartina (President's Day) comes The Lost Trailer Park: Never Coming Attractions.
So what is "Lost Trailer Park: Never Coming Attractions"?
Chris Lamartina It's the pet project of Chris Lamartina and writer Jimmy George (frequent co-writer and co-producer). Once a month, Chris Lamartina will be producing a trailer (movie preview) for a non-existent feature-length movie. Most of the time for campy tongue-in-cheek horror flicks, but not always. If it falls into the category of exploitation or grind house flicks, then it's definitely fair game.
The trailers are just that, exercises in short form content. Chris Lamartina takes the best parts of a proposed...

America's 16th president Abraham Lincoln goes on the rampage in the independent horror film President's Day.
The film, which had an exclusive screening in Morgantown, West Virginia, last Friday, is described as "a gruesome horror-comedy that's inspired by a healthy mix of presidential politics and campy 80s slasher films, where a high school election turns deadly after a homicidal maniac dressed as Abraham Lincoln starts murdering the candidates."
The filmmakers say the result is an amalgam of Election and Sleepaway Camp Part 2. There is also social satire as all the characters have names that echo those of the last Us presidential election.
Featuring performances by George Stover (John Water's Desperate Living and Polyester), Ruby Larocca (Flesh for the Beast, Lord of the G-Strings), and Shawn C. Phillips (star of YouTube's The Don and Murph Show), President's Day made its debut at the Charles Theatre in Baltimore in February.
