Child’s Play reboot kicks off production in Vancouver.

Several weeks ago we reported; and even did a Funko giveaway, that Child’s Play is getting the dust brushed off it in a fancy new reboot. We recently learned that production has kicked off in Vancouver and the picture has snagged Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Recreation, Legion) and Emmy and Tony nominee Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta) to star in the not so kid friendly slasher flick about a possessed doll, the likes of My Buddy (remember...

[Review] Castle Rock’s finale? Eh, so so.

As the credits rolled, and then stopped for a Marvel-esque teaser, and then continued, I sat on my couch scratching my head. What had just happened in the last fifty minutes on my television. Did I get the satisfaction I needed to close this book? Well before I go on, let me just warn you: SPOILERS AHEAD Okay, now that’s out of the way. Castle Rock is an anthology series, akin to American Horror Story. That...

Loki, Scarlet Witch, & more get TV spin off on Disney’s new streaming service

Variety dropped a bomb shell yesterday when they reported that we could soon be getting a spin off of popular MCU movie characters with 6-8 TV episode runs of each on their new streaming service that aims to rival Netflix. Here’s what we could see: Loki: Loki’s character has been around in the MCU for over 1,500 years. We know this from Infinity War when Thor stated that his age, and we know that Thor...

Breakdown of Captain Marvel trailer

The first Captain Marvel trailer hit the internet today and it is AWESOME!! What we know so far is that the movie will take place in the ‘90’s and it looks like we are going to get a Skrull invasion. For those of you not familiar with the Skrulls, they are a race of shape shifting aliens that invade planets by blending in and taking over key roles in industry and government. In the trailer...

Creep 3 in the works!

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG… Have you seen Creep? No? Go see it and come back. … Okay, welcome back. Have you seen Creep 2?? Crap. Okay, go watch that now and come back… … Done? … Okay. Well, guess what… Mark Duplass possibly just teased that Creep 3 is currently being written! I’m keeping my fingers crossed that he’s not messing with us right now! Now, if you haven’t seen the film and its...

Jordan Peele in talks to bring back Candyman

Bloodydisgusting.com reports that unassuming Get Out writer/director Jordan Peele is in talks to bring one of my favorite horror movies, Clive Barker’s Candyman, back to the big screen. Mixed feelings about this one. I loved Get Out. The film was disturbing, thought-provoking, and in some instances humorous (the dark kind). I think I even voted for it in the SAG awards. If anyone will do a good job bringing this story back to the big screen it’ll be...

Henry Cavill exits Superman role

The Hollywood Reporter broke the news today that Henry Cavill will no longer play his iconic role of Superman in the DCU. His exit came after talks broke down about Cavill making a cameo appearance in their upcoming Shazam movie. A move that would better help tie the movie to the rest of the DCU since Superman and Shazam have a long history in the comics. Cavill’s people claim scheduling conflicts for the actor’s current...

Netflix working on deal to acquire TWC’s horror flick “Polaroid”

Good horror movies are hard to come by. Fortunately, we’ve had some mainstay houses putting together scares over the years, one of which was Dimension Films who distributed flicks like Hellraiser 3: Hell on Earth, Children of the Corn 2: The Final Sacrifice (it wasn’t), and Fortress to name a few. Dimension was owned by The Weinstein Company, and unless you’ve been hiding under a rock since Trump got elected, you know by now that The...

How original! Beetlejuice is coming to Broadway!

Are you kidding me? Are the pools of ideas so dried up that we have to turn our beloved Beetlejuice into a Broadway musical? Is the Great White Way going to turn into the Great Black and White Striped Way? Deadline reports that the 1988 Tim Burton comedy will be premiering at the Winter Garden Theatre in March 2019. Will I see it? Of course. Will I be annoyed that we can’t come up with...
