Filming has now begun on director David Lee Fisher’s remake of F.W. Murnau’s 1922 silent film Nosferatu. The role of the iconic vampire, Count Orlok has been cast.

Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant will soon be returning to Netflix for season 2 of the zomedy (zombie-comedy) “Santa Clarita Diet”. I don’t know about you, but we couldn’t be happier, the show has it all. Today, we’ve got a first look at the show’s second season which will premiere this Spring. “In “Santa Clarita Diet” Joel (Timothy Olyphant) and Sheila (Drew Barrymore) are husband and wife realtors leading vaguely discontented lives in the L.A. suburb of Santa Clarita with their teenaged daughter, Abby (Liv Hewson), until Sheila goes through a dramatic change sending their lives down a road of death and destruction…but in a good way.
