We're sadly entering another slow week of new horror releases. Despite that, there are a couple standouts among the bunch. Specifically, ROSARIO reportedly lands on PVOD tomorrow for those that might've missed it in theaters. Next to that is the Netflix release of FEAR STREET: PROM QUEEN, which debuts on the streamer this Friday. Check below for everything notable coming out this week.
