Walking Dead Star Deletes Social Media Accounts After Death Threats

Social media can be an amazing place where people can connect from all over the world. Unfortunately, it is also a place where bullies and cowards hide behind a keyboard and bug you to the point where you become so sick of the harassment that you leave or delete your account. That is exactly what has happened to one Walking Dead star. Josh McDermitt who plays the role of Eugene on the hit series The Walking Dead deleted all of his social media accounts after growing sick of near constant harassment and death threats. He posted a video just before leaving social media. This is what he had to say: Death threats, don’t send me death threats. I’m going to report all that shit to the cops. I’m sick of it. You can hate Eugene, I don’t care. I’ll argue that you are wrong, but you can think what ever you want. When you start saying you hope I die,

THE DEAD FILES Return This May For Season 8

The Travel Channel’s paranormal series The Dead files will be returning for its eighth season with new haunting investigations on Saturday, May 6, 2017. On each episode, retired New York City Homicide Detective Steve DiSchiavi and psychic Amy Allan investigate a haunted location from two angles. DiSchiavi researches the locations history while Allan explores the area to determine what spirits call it home. At the end the two come together to present their findings to the clients. I’ll be honest, out of all the paranormal series, The Dead Files is my favorite. The combination of the history and the proof offered seems more authentic than most of the other shows on the subject.

Dwayne Johnson Gives Character Details For Adaption Of RAMPAGE

Something Is Coming And IT COMES AT NIGHT In A New Trailer

Following the world premiere of It Comes at Night from acclaimed director Trey Edward Shults at this past weekend’s Overlook Film Festival, A24 has unveiled a new trailer. The film centers on a “civilization-destroying pandemic,” with a father, a mother and teenage son staying in a remote house. “When an intruder arrives, pleading for help, they are forced to choose between kindness and potential infection. And this is one killer infection.” Secure within a desolate home as an unnatural threat terrorizes the world, the tenuous domestic order he has established with his wife and son is put to the ultimate test with the arrival of a desperate young family seeking refuge.

BLOOD FEAST Receives An Expanded Release And New Date

One of the few, and I mean very few, remakes I’ve looked forward to seeing is director Marcel Walz’s Blood Fest, originally released in 1963 by H.G. Lewis. A distribution deal had been struck and Medallion Releasing was set to release Blood Feast in theaters on April 28, 2017. Instead a new date has been announced. Due to fan demands, Blood Feast will be getting a wider release on June 23, 2017. Starring Robert Rusler, Caroline Williams, Sophie Monk, and Sadie Katz, the story centers on Fuad Ramses (Rusler) and his family who have moved from the US to France, where they run a diner. With business not going well, Fuad takes a second job as the night shift at a museum of ancient Egyptian culture. During the long, lonely nights, he finds himself drawn to an ancient statue of the goddess Ishtar (Katz). He becomes more and more drawn to her as she speaks to him in visions. Eventually
