Don't Breathe
For his Evil Dead follow-up, director Fede Alvarez ups the creep factor several hundred notches. Dubbed the best American horror film in 20 years, three teens scout out a blind man for an easy robbery, but of course they were wrong and he turns out to be the most terrifying man on the planet.

Vox gives you a brief primer on fencing, its history, and how the rules work for the three different events.
