Timothy Olyphant, Thomas Crawford, Christina Ferraro, Terry Walters, Ramona Young, Natalie Morales, and Brenadette Balagtas co-star. Sheila comes to life when she becomes undead,” Barrymore explains. “And I wish that without consequences, of course, everybody could experience that kind of liberation, that kind of strength, that kind of terminator vision, that tingly skin that’s like probably laid dormant in you for a while.

But then you have to decide whether you’re gonna go along

We reported back in August that The CW was adapting the beloved classic ‘The Lost Boys’ for a new television series. There has been little news since, until today. Rotten Tomatoes talked with Rob Thomas, the new series’ showrunner, at a Television Critics Association panel this past Sunday where he discussed the show. He revealed that the series was being eyed for a seven-season run, each depicting a different decade where the vampires will be the only ones to featured in each. The first season will be set in “1967 Summer of Love Haight-Ashbury”, Thomas said. He also told the site that we might get to see a crossover from the series and the original film. Vampires stay the same age, so those vampires that we meet in the ’80s in the original ‘Lost Boys’ movies could exist in the 1960s version,” Thomas said. “We could run into them there as well. We might not even have to wait until

Fans were crushed when NBC canceled the fantastic, perfectly cast, supernatural series ‘Constantine’. They have continued to begs networks to revive the series and The CW was listening. The network has announced that they are bringing ‘Constantine’ back with Matt Ryan reprising his role, but there is a catch, the series will be animated. The show will air on The CW’s digital network, CW Seed. Deadline reports that five 10-minute episodes have been ordered so far. The new show will air alongside CW Seed’s ‘Vixen’, a character who has also made appearances on ‘Arrow‘ and ‘DC’s Legends of Tomorrow’. This isn’t the first time Matt Ryan has appeared as an animated Constantine. The character also appeared in this year’s ‘Justice League Dark‘. With so many people interested in ‘Constantine’ I can’t help but wonder why a network hasn’t revived the live action series.

If there is one thing I love as much as horror movies, it’s horror documentaries. One topic in horror documentaries that seems to be lacking is that of werewolves, but UK paranormal investigator Damon Simms is aiming to add a film on that very subject. Simms writes a column for the Stoke Sentinel titled ‘Supernatural Staffordshire’. When he is not writing he spends much of his time researching the unexplained mysteries and the myths that revolve around the area. One of the most interesting cases is that of the “Werewolf of Cannock Chase’, a creature that has had countless sighting in the county. Simms’ research on the werewolf is traced back the year 1975. That year a boy in the town of Eccleshall claimed that he used a Ouija board to strike a deal with the devil to change him into a werewolf. Soon after, the boy began to act strangely. He began acting like a wild animal and even
