Like a Bat Out of Hell, Luc Besson’s Dracula is Flying Fast to VOD!

Luc Besson’s Dracula is arriving on VOD on March 10, 2026. Starring Caleb Landry Jones, Christoph Waltz, and Zoë Bleu, this romantic reimagining of the vampire myth also stands as one of Vertical’s biggest theatrical successes to date.

Coming to Prime Video, Apple TV, Fandango, and YouTube

Straight out of theatres and into your home, Luc Besson’s Dracula is ready to strike beginning March 10, 2026. It is already listed on Prime Video, and is reported to be one of Vertical’s highest-grossing releases to date. This romantic reimagining stars Caleb Landry Jones, Christoph Waltz, and Zoë Bleu, and offers a bold new take on the iconic vampire myth.

In my review, I noted that Dracula: A Love Tale reshapes the familiar myth into a sweeping gothic romance driven by loss, reincarnation, and pulp energy. Caleb Landry Jones leans hard into the Count’s theatrical menace, while Christoph Waltz gives Van Helsing a scene-stealing presence that helps keep the film lively. Though the digital effects can feel uneven, the film still lands as an entertaining and memorable take on the legend.

Although a Blu-ray and DVD release date has not yet been announced, seeing this vampire reincarnate around Easter would be rather ironic indeed.

Release Date: May 12, 2026

The story continues in The Legend of Hei, the acclaimed Chinese animated film that won audiences over with its beautiful hand-drawn animation and heartfelt storytelling. For anyone who missed the original, the movie is available online, with the home video still easy to find. Now the sequel, The Legend of Hei 2, arrives with a brand-new adventure filled with fresh dangers and a looming threat from the spirit world.

While the premise of maintaining balance between worlds may sound familiar, this story takes its own path. The conflict between spirits and humans is a universal theme, but this sequel expands the mythology in new directions rather than echoing other animated series. Readers can check out my review of the first film here.

Astounding! Another Eden Returns as Another Eden Begins.

Another Eden Begins reimagines the mobile RPG as a nostalgic, story-driven remake shaped by Chrono Trigger’s Masato Kato. With multiple endings, curated companions, and time-spanning drama, this Summer 2026 release modernizes a classic without losing its melancholy heart.

Another Eden Begins Switch Version Another Eden isn’t just another mobile RPG. It’s a deliberate love letter to 90s-era Japanese role-playing games and it’s getting modernized for fans. Simply titled Another Eden Begins, what’s offered is a remake that cares more about mood, music, and melancholy than daily log-ins. What really gives it weight is Masato Kato, the writer behind Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, shaping its narrative DNA. You can feel it in how time fractures, how memory lingers, and how the story trusts players to slow down.

And honestly, with Armed Fantasia still drifting somewhere in development limbo, this might be the closest thing to scratching that classic Chrono itch. Another Eden Begins is set for a Summer 2026 release, revisiting the First Arc of the original game, “The Cat Beyond Time and Space.” Redesigning the game that started it all helps newcomers get acquainted with the world. What’s different is mostly cosmetic, reworked for a 128-bit processing environment. This game will be available on PC (Steam), Switch, and Switch 2.

Little Lucha and The Big Deal is Finally Streaming for that Front Row Experience!

An underdog wrestling tale steps into the spotlight as Little Lucha and The Big Deal begins streaming online. Blending 80s ring theatrics with heartfelt indie storytelling, the short celebrates creative struggle, partnership, and the fight to keep a dream alive.

Filmmakers Scarlet Moreno and Josh Stifter are stepping back into the ring as their short film, Little Lucha and the Big Deal, is finally available online. My review can be read here, and it’s a fun nostalgic romp to acknowledge the years when wrestling was more than an escape. It’s a way to recognize what goes on behind the ring. This short film that has lots of hear is now streaming exclusively on GeekTyrant.com (and Vimeo). We also have it linked to watch from the comfort of this post too.

Co-directed by and starring this duo, the short is a larger-than-life love letter to 80s era professional wrestling. The story follows aspiring superstar Little Lucha and his partner The Big Deal, two underdog performers chasing glory inside the ring while wrestling with the realities of life beyond the ropes. It’s a tale built on body slams, big dreams, and the emotional toll that comes with refusing to quit.

“Little Lucha and The Big Deal is one of the most heartfelt films I’ve been a part of creating,” said Moreno. “It’s got an ‘art mirrors life’ aspect for me as it’s a story of two people, nearly at the end of their ropes, doing everything in their power to make a dream come true. And what artist or creative doesn’t know that feeling?”

Unleashing Colum Eastwood’s The Morrigan. Just Who Is This Phantom Queen?

A slow-burn folk horror with teeth, The Morrigan reframes the goddess as something older and sharper than pop culture’s “wicked sorceress” shortcut. Through a mother and daughter caught in a modern system built to drain women dry, the film turns possession into sovereignty, and rebellion into something sacred and brutal.

Now on VOD and Digital

The worship of the Morrígan is nearly as old as time, dating back to roughly 3000 BC. In terms of raw elemental power, she rivals a force like Gaia, the very breath and blood of the land itself. Yet, history has been unkind to her. In Irish lore, she was a terrifyingly complex sovereign; in modern literature, her role was flattened to fit the needs of the “wicked sorceress” trope. While pop culture often lazily grafts her onto Arthurian legend, those who hold The Mists of Avalon as the best may need to head back to school to “unlearn” the sanitized version of the goddess they’ve been sold.

Colum Eastwood’s expansion of his short film proves he’s done the homework. He frames the Morrígan not as a simple adversary, but as a goddess of death, regeneration, and rebirth. This is the core belief of Fiona (Saffron Burrows), a woman battling a modern world designed to “steal a lady’s thunder.” The film’s strongest thematic tissue lies in the parallel between the ancient and the modern: Fiona is reeling from a husband who has abandoned her and their daughter, Lily (Emily Flain), while being professionally bled dry by Professor Jonathan Horner (Jonathan Forbes). He is a leech who steals from his TAs while the world turns a blind eye.

The Chaos! The Cosmic Horror! Lovecraftian Videogames That’s Coming in 2026

Cosmic horror and videogames should be natural companions, yet truly unsettling Lovecraftian experiences remain rare. From investigative dread beneath the sea to dream logic, flooded cities, and shared paranoia, these upcoming titles for 2026 show how developers are finally learning how to let the unknown breathe.

Call of Cthulhu Cosmic Horror or Land Line? Every year, it’s safe to say that some videogame developer has an idea to extend the Lovecraftian universe to the electronic realm. A lot has changed since the release of a version of Call of Cthulhu. These days, there’s a different product worth noting, and as for whether Howard would approve of the type of cosmic horror built, he’d balk and say the Mi-go aren’t as like-minded. They’d rather interface an actual mind to technology rather than vice versa. However, for the rest of humanity, they have the pleasure to step into the shoes of imagined characters to take on these dreaded forces of cosmic horror, and with lots of luck, maybe survive! This list chooses to lean on the side of

Although there has not been many virtual reality games made to summon dread, you’d think there’d be more products. Part of the problem is with the nature of each tale, it’s more about existentialism rather than surviving the night. Although Dagon: by H.P. Lovecraft by Bit Golem included a VR mode that let you stand inside the narration of the short story, the player’s role is more like bearing witness to than being part of a game. It nailed atmosphere and scale, but stopped short of interactivity, which kept it firmly in “experience” territory.

But until more products are firmly imagined, players can investigate these upcoming releases:

Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss

(April 16, 2026)

Cthulhu The Cosmic Abyss
This first-person game developed by Big Bad Wolf Studio looks designed for today’s generation of consoles. It’s the most ambitious to date because here, players assume the role of a special agent sent to investigate the many deaths occurring at sea. The reason for the extra computer power is the use of AI in this engine. Here, you’ll explore the sunken city of R’lyeh with the help of machine learning to make sense of it all.

As for whether reality will cause this agent to go mad as well, that’s tough to say. In what makes this one stand out is its fastidious worldbuilding and emotional stakes — it doesn’t just show you monsters, it shows you how much your own choices can twist you. Watchlists are already active on storefronts like Steam and PlayStation, so you can track updates and demos ahead of launch.
