概要

This Week in Horror History for April 20–26 dives into a packed week of horror release dates, anniversaries, cult favorites, and modern genre hits—from Vacancy (2007) and Silent Hill (2006) to The Hand (1981), Until Dawn (2025), and this week’s Deep-Cut Spotlight, The Dark Half (1993). If you love horror movie history, release date anniversaries, cult horror films, Stephen King adaptations, George A. Romero, video game horror movies, and hidden gems worth revisiting, this episode is built for you.
Inside this episode:
  • April 20, 2007 — Vacancy: stripped-down motel horror, snuff-film panic, and one of the nastiest little studio thrillers of the 2000s.
  • Where to watch (U.S., this week): PlutoTV; rentable on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
  • April 21, 2006 — Silent Hill: one of the most atmospheric horror game adaptations ever made, with ash-choked visuals and nightmare imagery that still haunt. Where to watch (U.S., this week): PlutoTV; rentable on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
  • April 24, 1981 — The Hand: Oliver Stone’s strange psychological horror detour, with Michael Caine unraveling while a severed hand seems to take on a life of its own. Where to watch (U.S., this week): Tubi; also on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
  • April 25, 2025 — Until Dawn: the choice-driven horror game becomes a blood-soaked movie built around time loops, death traps, and repeat-night terror. Where to watch (U.S., this week): Netflix; also on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.
  • Deep-Cut Spotlight — April 23, 1993: The Dark Half: George A. Romero adapts Stephen King into a bitter, nasty, underrated horror film about authorship, rage, and a murderous alter ego. Where to watch (U.S., this week):Prime Video, MGM+, Prime Video with Ads, YouTube Free; rentable on Apple TV and Fandango at Home.
  • Birthday Roll: Veronica Cartwright, James McAvoy, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Amber Midthunder.
  • Weekly Recommendation — I Trapped the Devil (2019): a claustrophobic, paranoid slow-burn that fits this cursed little calendar window perfectly. Where to watch (U.S., this week): AMC+, Shudder; also on Amazon, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.

From roadside terror and ash-covered nightmare towns to killer doubles, psychological breakdowns, and modern horror game adaptations, this episode tracks how one single week in April delivered a wildly varied run of horror history.
