Robert Kirkman Implies Carl Might Not Die After All

Fans were crushed in ‘The Walking Dead’s’ midseason finale when it was revealed that Carl (Chandler Riggs) had been bitten in the previous episode. Now, we all know that the hit show is famous for killing off characters, but they’re famous for another thing, teasing fans with contradictions. After Greg Nicotero promised that there is no way that Carl could survive, now the show’s creator Robert Kirkman teased during a Q&A that Rick’s boy might not die after all. He’s not dead yet. He might not die. You never know. But I think if, were that to happen, I think that it would have some interesting ramifications on Rick, that I think would energize and really kind of set things in motion in a really interesting way leading to the resolution of All Out War in a way that will make for a very exciting back half to Season 8, so I think it’s going to be really cool.” So,

New ‘Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’ Trailer Unveiled During Super Bowl

One of the biggest blockbusters headed our way this year is Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Let’s be honest, the best thing about the Super Bowl is the commercials and trailers, including the brand spanking new trailer for Fallen Kingdom that teases not only a return to Jurassic World, but Raptors in civilization. The new trailer, which is the second for the film, is filled with dino carnage, action, and amazing special effects. Set several years after the disaster as Jurassic World, a dormant volcano has become active on Isla Nublar and threatens to wipe out the remaining dino population.

Nine Books Written By Serial Killers

If you are intrigued by serial killers, you’re not alone. Many have a morbid curiosity about those who kill. No matter if it’s Ted Bundy or unsolved murders linked by a killer’s M.O., there is something fascinating about those who ignore the rules of society and give in to their darkest desires. You might not realize it, but there are a lot of books out there written by serial killers, and we just happen to have a list of nine of them. A Question of Doubt John Wayne Gacy took the lives of 33 men and boys. He also appeared at many children’s birthday parties dressed as his alter ego, “Pogo the Clown”, which earned him the nickname “The Killer Clown”.

First Images Arrive From ‘Tremors: A Cold Day In Hell’

The first images have surfaced from the sixth film of the Tremors Franchise, Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell, showing the cast handling some serious hardware. In the film, “Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) and his son Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy) find themselves up to their ears in Graboids and Ass-Blasters when they head to Canada to investigate a series of deadly giant-worm attacks. Arriving at a remote research facility in the arctic tundra, Burt begins to suspect that Graboids are secretly being weaponized, but before he can prove his theory, he is sidelined by Graboid venom. With just 48 hours to live, the only hope is to create an antidote from fresh venom — but to do that, someone will have to figure out how to milk a Graboid!” Tanya van Graan, Greg Kriek, Jay Anstey, Jenna Upton, Jamie-Lee Money, Christie Peruso, Stephanie Schildknecht, Alistar Moulton Black, Rob van Vuuren, and Kiroshan Naidoo co-star.

Sound, Sex, And The Devil: ‘American Satan’ Is Simply A Triumph

As I sat down to watch American Satan I had the misconception that the film I was about to watch would be about music, I was wrong. What I watched unravel on the screen was much, much more. In the beginning, we see a rock band, “The Relentless”, come together, Johnny (Andy Biersack), Lily (Jesse Sullivan), Vic (Booboo Stewart), Leo (Ben Bruce), and Ricky (John Bradley), their manager. Playing their first big show at the Whiskey, they take the stage and see a packed house, that is until people’s social media notifications begin to pop up, notifying the crowd that Metallica is playing down the street. As the bar empties the band sees Elias, the record exec (Mark Boone Junior) one of the members met earlier in the day. As he walks out the band lays down their instruments and leaves. Just when they are at their lowest they meet the Devil himself, played by Malcolm McDowell. After they agree
