James McAvoy is Terrifying in the Second ‘Speak No Evil’ Trailer

This September, a vacation goes very wrong for an unsuspecting family in Speak No Evil. In the new panic-inducing trailer, James McAvoy (Split, Glass) harbors a dark and deadly secret, giving off serious psycho vibes. Mackenzie Davis (Terminator: Dark Fate) and SAG award-winner Scoot McNairy (A Quiet Place Part II) star as a couple who, along with their young daughter Agnes (Alix West Lefler; Riverdale), accept a holiday invitation from their new friends, Paddy (McAvoy), his wife Ciara (Aisling Franciosi; Game of Thrones). But the happy family has no idea what horrors await them. This pulse-pounding film is from writer-director James Watkins. Watkins has a talent for building a dark atmosphere and a sense of mounting dread, as seen in horror films like The Woman in Black and Eden Lake. Judging by the new Speak No Evil trailer, we can expect to see that again. Christian Tafdrup and Mads Tafdrup co-wrote the script for the film, a remake of the

The ‘Jurassic World 4’ Title Has Been Discovered

Since Jurassic World 4 was announced, fans have wondered about its title. According to reports, the trademark filing has revealed that the next franchise installment is Jurassic World 4: Rebirth. The sequel is said to be set twenty-two years after the events of Jurassic Park. The movie takes you to Isla Nublar, which now features a fully functioning dinosaur theme park, Jurassic World, as originally envisioned by John Hammond. After ten years of operation, it has suffered from declining visitor rates. A new attraction is created to re-spark visitors’ interest but backfires horribly. Jurassic World 4: Rebirth already has an impressive cast. Avengers actress Scarlett Johansson will lead the upcoming movie from director Gareth Edwards (Godzilla). Jonathan Bailey (“Bridgerton”), Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (The Lincoln Lawyer), Rupert Friend (Obi-Wan Kenobi), Luna Blaise (“Manifest”), David Iacono (“Dead Boy Detectives”), Audrina Miranda (“Lopez vs Lopez”), and Mahershala Ali (Leave the World Behind) also star. While the cast brings new energy, some veterans are returning

Movie Review: Kit Harrington Bares His Teeth in ‘The Beast Within’

A sick young girl lives at her family’s remote farm. She’s reached the age where she recognizes her family harbors a dark secret, but what could it be? Her father, whom she seems afraid of, disappears for days, always returning exhausted and drenched in blood. Unable to resist, she sneaks out to uncover the truth about the monster her father has become. That’s the plot of The Beast Within, directed by Alexander J. Farrell and co-written by Greer Ellison. This dark story plays out in a grand farmhouse in disrepair, filled with whispers between family members. The beast is unleashed against a stunning background of forests and hills. The cinematography is fantastic, with the film having a warm, rich look and beautiful shots. Young Caoilinn Springall is the standout of the film. She performs far beyond her years, delivering authentic panic and fear. Ashleigh Cummings, who plays the struggling mother, also gives a powerful performance. James Cosmo (Braveheart) plays the

Dive into Our Interview with the Director of ‘The Last Breath’

The new shark film The Last Breath will open in theaters on July 26. Ahead of its release, I had the pleasure of talking with the director, Joachim Hedèn, about the edge-of-your-seat thriller. Hedèn is by no means new to the genre. He’s also behind the aquatic thrillers The Dive (2023) and Breaking Surface (2020), meaning he was a fantastic choice to direct the film, whose script was written by Andrew Prendergast and Nick Saltrese. The Last Breath centers on a group of old friends reuniting for a Caribbean vacation. Their idyllic reunion takes a horrifying turn when they explore a sunken World War II battleship. What begins as an adventurous dive quickly becomes a desperate fight for survival. With limited resources, dwindling oxygen, and surrounded by great white sharks, the friends must confront their deepest fears in a race against time to escape their watery tomb. The film stars Alexander Arnold, Kim Spearman, Jack Parr, Erin Mullen, Arlo Carter,

Paramount+ Cancels “Halo” After Two Seasons

Paramount+ has made the surprising decision to cancel the “Halo“ television series after just two seasons. Based on the popular video game franchise, the sci-fi adaptation premiered in 2022 and returned for a second season earlier this year. Starring Pablo Schreiber as the iconic Master Chief and Jen Taylor reprising her role as Cortana from the game, the series sees the galaxy on the brink of destruction; Master Chief John-117 leads his team of Spartans against the alien threat known as the Covenant. Despite the involvement of key franchise figures and a dedicated fanbase, the series has ultimately failed to secure a long-term future on Paramount+. While the show’s cancellation is undoubtedly disappointing for fans, the production team behind “Halo” is exploring options to continue the story on another platform. With the series reportedly being shopped elsewhere, there’s still a chance that the Master Chief’s adventures will live on. Paramount+ has expressed gratitude for the cast, crew, and production partners
