4 seconds ago Long before Warner Bros. released the theatrical version of Justice League in 2017, passionate Zack Snyder supporters have been beating the drum for the release of what we now call “The Snyder Cut.” This would be the restored version of DC’s celebrated ensemble film that retains Snyder’s vision for the superhero team
Humans, especially in America, have a long-standing history of being scared of clowns. Then there are those who quite enjoy the notion of a scary clown. In most cases, clowns are nothing to truly be afraid of, either because real clowns tend to be children’s entertainers, or because the scariest ones aren’t real. But one
Cameron Cuffe and Jonah Hauer-King are the latest actors to test for the role of Prince Eric in Disney’s live-action The Little Mermaid. With Disney Animation Renaissance hits Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King having all gotten a makeover in live-action (or photorealistic CGI, in The Lion King‘s case), it was only a
9 hours ago Hustlers is another one of those stories that are so outrageous, you’d think they were made up. But writer/director Lorene Scafaria’s recent box office smash is not only extremely real, it hews pretty closely to the details given in journalist Jessica Pressler’s article “The Hustlers At Scores”. Even with that in mind,

Widely considered a pioneer of the microcomputer revolution of the 1970s and ’80s, Jobs was, alongside Steve Wozniak, famously a co-founder of Apple. He also served as the company’s Chairman and CEO. Following Disney’s acquisition of the animation

When The Force Awakens arrived in 2015, George Lucas showed up to the premiere, waving at the crowds, refusing to say too much about the movie itself. He didn’t necessarily heap praise on the J.J. Abrams directed sequel at the time of release. He didn’t completely come out and trash it either. Now, we have
Film and television have long had an oversized interest in serial killers and the men and women who pursue them. That interest can sometimes be purely prurient, a desire stare into the shallow abyss of fictional slashers and their abhorrent habits before they’re brought to justice, one way or another. But the serial killer subgenre
52 seconds ago Last night, the Emmys honored those industry figures that passed away over the last year in the In Memoriam segment, and now sadly another name can be added to that list. News broke earlier this morning that actor Sid Haig has passed away on Saturday at the age of 80. The horror

Jurassic Park‘s Dennis Nedry must have been a fan of ’80s fashion, because his outfits in the movie closely resembled those worn by the kids in The Goonies. Actor Wayne Knight starred in the sci-fi adventure film in 1993, and the film has since become a beloved classic. Jurassic Park‘s debut came eight years after

21 minutes ago The relationship between Batman and the Joker is one of the greatest, most fascinating dynamics in pop culture. Personified chaos vs. a symbol of order and justice? Sweet! Count us in! Unfortunately, in Todd Phillips’s highly anticipated standalone Joker film, the two won’t cross paths at all (or will they?). But if
Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers has an alternate producer’s cut ending that was very difficult to find for years. John Carpenter’s Halloween was only the beginning of what would become one of the most profitable horror franchises, consisting of 11 films (including Rob Zombie’s remakes and David Gordon Green’s reboot) and expanding to
Downton Abbey was easily able to swoop in and take the number one spot this weekend. The popular TV series continued its story on the big screen with much of the original cast involved and earned $31 million, which was more than enough to dominate this weekend and exceeded original expectations.

5 minutes ago At a time when remake announcements are coming at us left and right (hello new Face/Off and Princess Bride reboots?), which ones could become revitalized franchises?

Taika Waititi has been making hilarious, well-liked movies for more than a decade. His comedic voice is incredibly distinctive, with What We Do in the Shadows perhaps being the prime example. It’s the type of filmmaking that manages to round up loyal devotees. But Hollywood became much more aware of the New Zealand-born filmmaker when
Here’s why Penny Dreadful’s John Clare is one of the most underrated takes on Frankenstein’s monster. British/American horror series Penny Dreadful aired for three seasons on Showtime before its cancelation in 2016.

16 minutes ago Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol has been adapted, spoofed, and drawn from so many times that it’s difficult to justify the existence of another one. Sure, some of its many previous adaptations have taken liberties with its original premise (such as Mickey’s Christmas Carol, The Muppet Christmas Carol, and a handful of
