Everyone has a fear. Maybe yours is Arachnophobia (spiders) or Ophidiophobia (snakes). Mine happens to be Musophobia, rats, mice. I don’t know if it’s the teeth or those bald tales, but I do know that I had a little trouble watching the new trailer for Ratpocalypse. First reported back in 2015 when it was released in Moscow, Vladimir Uglichin’s Ratpocalypse stars Casper Van Dien. After a long wait, the film is finally coming stateside. The film centers on “American Senator John Perryman (Van Dien), a man of pure and humble soul with a warrior’s disposition, delivers a fiery speech in Moscow about the country’s main evil – corruption. A corruption so pervasive it will turn men into “rats.” He declares that he was ordered to speak to them from above and threatens everyone with the loss of their human form, which draws only guffaws and resentment from the people. Many take the Senator for a madman as gradually, all his

First News Arrives For Season 3 Of ‘Stranger Things’

Like most fans, I am now going through withdraws after finishing the second season of Netflix’s mega-hit series ‘Stranger Things’. So now the countdown begins season 3. Speaking of season 3, the Duffer Brothers recently spoke with THR and stated that there will be a significant time jump next season. Even if we wanted to hop into the action faster, we couldn’t,” says Matt Duffer. “Our kids are aging. We can only write and produce the show so fast. They’re going to be almost a year older by the time we start shooting season three. It provides certain challenges. You can’t start right after season two ended. It forces you to do a time jump.” Then he added, “It’s a long way of saying that yeah, we’re going to do a time jump.” It makes sense. The kids that star in the series are growing up quickly. Plus, since the Upside Down was beaten back it would take time for
