Last Updated on August 2, 2021

We have made it to the weekend, and the celebration begins when we assemble all of the latest additions to our JoBlo Horror YouTube channel (check it out and subscribe HERE) together in one place. It's the AITH HORROR VIDEOS OF THE WEEK!

This week we reached the conclusion of the Demon Jar investigation in our paranormal series WE WANT TO BELIEVE, took a look at the death scenes in CANDYMAN for THE KILL COUNTER, and covered the 1995 sci-fi horror film SCREAMERS for an episode of our BEST HORROR MOVIE YOU NEVER SAW series. All of these videos can be seen below.

WE WANT TO BELIEVE Ep4 – The Demon Jar (Part 4 of 4)

Peter, Jason and the team continue their investigation at the allegedly haunted hotel, and evidence begins to present itself. Peter captures a startling voice on the Spirit Box that might tie into a number of incidents at the hotel. And Jason and Sarah pick up what could be a woman’s voice whispering to them in one of the rooms. But is this real evidence of ghostly activity? Or can it be easily explained away?

Series Synopsis: We Want to Believe is a paranormal reality show that takes an un-Hollywood approach to the pseudo science of paranormal investigation. Episodes chronicle investigations by writer/director/investigator Jason Hewlett, paranormal investigator Peter Renn and their team as they tackle hauntings, spectral encounters, Bigfoot, UFO sightings, and other high strangeness, No false evidence, no camera tricks or special effects — this is the real deal; what you see is raw and intact.

CANDYMAN (1992) – The Kill Counter  

As we wait for the new CANDYMAN film to be unleashed (damn you Covid); we re-visit the original 1992 film (directed by Bernard Rose) and put forth every single KILL in the picture. ENJOY!

The 1992 Candyman tells the tale of: "The Candyman, a murderous soul with a hook for a hand, is accidentally summoned to reality by a skeptic grad student researching the monster's myth." It stars Virginia Madsen, Tony Todd and Xander Berkeley and was of course inspired by Clive Barker's short story "The Forbidden" as found in Books of Blood.

SCREAMERS – The Best Horror Movie You Never Saw 

Today on the BEST HORROR MOVIE YOU NEVER SAW we take on Christian Duguay's sci-fi horror adaptation of Philip K. Dick's short story "The Second Variety": SCREAMERS (1995).

The film stars Peter Weller (yes RoboCop himself), Quebec star Roy Dupuis (the flick was shot in Montreal, Canada) and Scream Queen Jennifer Rubin (Nightmare on Elm Street 3, Bad Dreams). It was written by ALIEN scribe Dan O'Bannon and Miguel Tejada-Flores who penned Revenge of the Nerds.

Here's the synopsis: "A military commander stationed off planet during an interplanetary war travels through the devastated landscape to negotiate a peace treaty, but discovers that the primitive robots they built to kill enemy combatants have gained sentience."
