Potential Names for my Magazine

I have come to a decision that my magazine is going to be like Fangoria magazine, specialising in independent horror movies. This means I will be able to focus on only one genre of film, this being horror.
Names for the magazine:
1) SCREAM MAGAZINE-

  • The name of this magazine is good because the word scream gets the point of it being a horror magazine across to the audience 
  • The negative points about this magazine is that the word SCREAM is not very original and there are other magazines with similar names 
2) BONES- 

  • This magazine name works in some ways but it others it may get interpreted wrong by the audience. This is because 'Bones' could also imply thriller or a crime magazine 
  • It is good as a name as it is short, catchy and easy to remember 

3) FRIGHT INTERNATIONAL- 

  • As a magazine title this sounds authentic but at the same time it may be too long for the audience.
  • It is not as catchy as many other names i have come up with 
4) GORE MAGAZINE-

  • I personally like this because I feel the word GORE really captures to feeling of the magazine, gore is a good word when it comes to horror because it applies in many ways
  • At the same time i think that there are better names i can come up with 
5) DARK MOON MAGAZINE- 

  • This film name has a really mysterious feel to it which can be good but it also may take away the feeling of horror 
  • The design of the magazine to suit this name could be really interesting and the theme of the 'dark moon' could be carries the whole way through the magazine 

6) MASSACRE MAGAZINE- 

  • This is one of my favourite names, the horror that comes with 'Massacres' in general is something I can really play around with throughout the magazine 
  • This name implies horror, blood and gore, which is perfect when speaking about the horror genre 
7) EVIL EMPIRE-

  • The only problem with this name is that it resembles 'Empire' magazine which is for mainstream hollywood blockbusters. If i was to use this name I would have to emphasise the word 'EVIL' and not so much empire. 
  • Apart from that this name is good as it incorporates all forms if horror. The word evil can be supernatural horror and just horror in general
