The ‘Heathers’ Series Red Band Trailer Is Here

There are A LOT of remakes and reboots coming out soon. One of those is the TV “reimagining” of Michael Lehmann’s 1988 genre film Heathers. The Red Band trailer is out and it is probably going to piss off any fans of the movie. New isn’t always better. The series follows a group of outcast students who plot to kill the cool kids. The characters in the series are a bit different from the ones from the film, for example, one of the female characters has been swapped out for a gay male character and the lead mean girl is “body positive”. It comes across like they are trying a little too hard to be relevant, you know what I mean? Selma Blair, Adwin Brown, Romel De Silva, Annalisa Cochrane, Jeremy Culhane, Cameron Gellman, Jess Leigh, Mandy June Turpin, Paige Weldon, Christina Burdette, Birgundi Baker, Grace Victoria Sawyer, and James Scully co-star.

Guillermo Del Toro Accused Of Stealing The Plot For ‘The Shape Of Water’

There are rumors and accusations flying that Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of Water, the most nominated movie of 2018, is plagiarized. It’s a terrible accusation if it’s false, but if it’s true, it’s disgraceful. So here’s the situation… It all began with Reddit users pointing out the similarities between The Shape of Water and a 2015 student film from the Netherlands Film Acadamy titled The Space Between Us. Both plots center on a woman cleaning a research facility, both feature an aquatic man/love interest, both are love stories. The Space Between Us takes place in a post-nuclear era where the air has become so polluted that it’s lethal. In the film, a cleaning woman named Juliett falls for Adam, a captive merman.The film was written and directed by Marc S. Nollkaemper and stars Elsa May Averill, Adrian Brine, Jurandy Martien, and Kiefer Zwart as the creature, Adam. The Shape of Water is set in the 1950s in a research

Details Emerge About Simon Pegg And Nick Frost’s New Film And New Series

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are an ideal acting team. If you’ve seen Shawn of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World’s End, or Paul you know what we say is true. Now, we are about to get a double dose of the duo with a show and a new film and we have a few of the details. First up is ‘Truth Seekers’, a new upcoming horror-comedy series about a three-person paranormal investigation group. According to Variety, each episode will center on a paranormal incident. Each episode is going to be an adventure, a potential haunting or something,” Pegg says. “It’ll start as a very parochial idea, a very small business venture for these people, but it will expand as the series goes on to be something far more global. It’s a language everyone understands, the mystery of the unknown. Shaun of the Dead was a very parochial story set in North London, and somehow it managed to get this
