The Twisted Childhood Universe expands today as Pinocchio: Unstrung officially out on Digital and DVD. The film makes its home release following its premiere at the Raindance Film Festival and its theatrical run. A Wholesome Gift Turns Deadly The plot follows Geppetto, played by veteran actor Richard Brake, as he presents a hand-carved wooden doll to his grandson. Unaware of the tragic fate that usually follows mysterious heirlooms, the young boy introduces his new companion to the human world. The innocent gesture triggers a lethal chain reaction when Pinocchio determines that the most effective way to become a “good boy” is to eradicate anyone he deems “bad violently. Iconic Horror Talent Behind the Madness Adding a legendary voice to the carnage, horror icon Robert Englund stars as a demonic iteration of the conscience-guiding cricket.

Every December, television networks blast 1966’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas! on an endless loop until the roast beast turns to ash. Everyone knows the holiday classic, but buried deep within the vault of 1970s television lies the Grinch’s forgotten, psychedelic, fever-dream companion piece: Halloween Is Grinch Night. Broadcast by ABC on October 28, 1977, this film traded Yuletide warmth for pure visual madness, unleashing a full-blown parade of nightmare fuel that ultimately snatched the 1978 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children’s Program. The Masterminds Behind the Madness Written by Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss) himself and directed by Gerard Baldwin, the special swapped out the late Boris Karloff for the distinct voice work of Hans Conried. To keep things delightfully eerie, Sesame Street maestro Joe Raposo provided a bizarre, atmospheric score, while original vocalist Thurl Ravenscroft returned to lend his booming bass to the musical numbers. The result is a film that feels less like a cozy bedtime story and

To say that Apple TV’s horror-comedy series “Widow’s Bay” is a hit is a massive understatement. It picked up eight statuettes and locked in frontrunner status heading into the Primetime Emmy ceremony on September 14. Created by Katie Dippold, the series anchored a dominant evening for Apple TV, which swept 18 trophies that night, more than any rival network or streaming platform. The streamer’s impressive tally was rounded out by strong performances from Pluribus with four wins. And Margo’s Got Money Troubles and Palm Royale both got three each. Ancient Curses vs. Small-Town Marketing Set 40 miles off the coast of New England, the series stars Matthew Rhys as Mayor Tom Loftis, a desperately ambitious politician. He’s trying to save his dying island town by rebranding it into a premier tourist destination. Unfortunately for Tom, the locals are notoriously superstitious, cell reception is nonexistent, and everyone treats the mayor like a coward (a characterization he fully earns). Just as his
