Dust off your top hats and practice your tap dancing, because the ultimate comedy necromancy is officially happening. After teasing us with a pilot order last year, FX has officially given a full series order to “Very Young Frankenstein,” Variety reports. The project is a brand-new television expansion inspired by the legendary 1974 Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder cinematic masterpiece. While exact plot details are currently locked away in a secret laboratory, the creative pedigree alone is enough to make any comedy fan start hyperventilating. The Creative Monster Mash: From Staten Island to Transylvania If you want to recreate the lightning-in-a-bottle energy of the original film, you hire the people who spent the last few years making vampires the funniest entities on Television. The series is spearheaded by a powerhouse trio of “What We Do in the Shadows” alums. Stefani Robinson is serving as writer and executive producer. Taika Waititi: Who lent his signature visual chaos to direct the pilot

But Hollywood refuses to let any intellectual property rest in peace. So, the masters of the spoof genre are officially returning to show the new generation how a cash grab is done. Paramount Pictures and Miramax just dropped a brand-new behind-the-scenes featurette. It gives fans a peek into the chaos of the ultimate comedy dynasty. Marlon Wayans, Kim Wayans, Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, and Craig Wayans all sit down to discuss what it’s like to combine forces for the new Scary Movie, produced by Keenen Ivory Wayans, Marlon Wayans (p.g.a.), Shawn Wayans, Craig Wayans, and Rick Alvarez (p.g.a.).

After spending a decade wandering the prestige television wilderness—and briefly confusing everyone by directing a BBC children’s show—radical avant-garde auteur Nicolas Winding Refn is finally returning to the big screen with Her Private Hell. The film marks Refn’s first traditional-genre feature since 2016’s hyper-stylized fashion nightmare, The Neon Demon. The Setup: Top Secret in Tokyo Her Private Hell is a thriller set against the neon-drenched backdrop of Tokyo. Given Refn’s track record (Drive, Only God Forgives), expect plenty of synth music, gorgeous cinematography, neon-drenched scenes, and extreme violence. The first teaser has arrived, and it’s stunning. Watch it below. In the film, a mysterious mist descends on a metropolis. A deadly, elusive entity is unleashed upon the city as a young woman searches for her father. On her mission, her path collides with that of a soldier who is searching for his daughter. An Arthouse Dream Team Cast Refn has assembled a spectacularly trendy ensemble of Hollywood rising stars and

Leave it to director Na Hong-jin to bring a multi-million dollar sci-fi epic to the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. And make an elite, haute-couture audience violently laugh about diarrhea. On Sunday night, the Grand Palais was jolted awake by the world premiere of Hope. It is an incredibly ambitious blockbuster focused on an alien invasion in a quiet South Korean town. The result? A raucous 6-minute standing ovation and a theater full of black-tie elites completely losing their minds. The Vibe: Pure, Bloody Chaos Going into the screening, nobody quite knew what to expect from Hope. What they got was a masterclass in tonal whiplash. The film reportedly kicks off with what feels like a continuous sequence of escalating, bloody action. Think gritty survival story meets high-concept sci-fi mythology. It is populated by potty-mouthed local police officers and bewildered rural locals trying to square off against a mysterious, terrifying creature. The Scene Everyone Is Talking About While the action is

If you thought the giant, vengeful shark from 2023’s hit The Black Demon was satisfied after terrorizing an oil rig, think again. The beast is back. And this time, it has upgraded to a floating maximum-security prison in The Black Demon 2: Atlantis. Highland Film Group has announced a massive wave of international distribution deals for the upcoming survival action-thriller. With production currently underway in Colombia, the world is clearly hungry for more shark chaos. ‘Prison Break’ Meets ‘Jaws’ The sequel trades the open ocean for Atlantis, a remote, offshore maximum-security fortress in the Pacific. Undercover DEA agent Jerry Simms (Jack Kesy) arrives at the prison to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his partner. What he finds is a complete nightmare soup. The facility is run by the iron-fisted warden (Vanesa Restrepo). However, things worsen as the cell blocks are terrorized by Diego Núñez (Harold Torres). Diego is a cult-like killer. To top it off, he’s rumored to possess ancient,

If you thought inheriting a secluded farm in Venezuela was a peaceful way to process intense marital grief, The Whistler (2026) is here to politely—and terrifyingly—disagrees. This horror-mystery delivers a potent mix of cultural folklore and supernatural dread. It proves once and for all that some property inheritances are better left unclaimed. When Coping Mechanisms Go Rogue The film centers on Nicole (Diane Guerrero) and Sebastian (Juan Pablo Raba). They are a couple shattered by the devastating loss of their daughter. In desperate need of a reset, they pack up and move to a remote, inherited estate in Venezuela. Unfortunately, the property already has squatters: a local cult whose primary hobby is summoning the dead. Desperate to reconnect with her daughter, Nicole ignores every standard horror-movie red flag and joins in on the cult’s rituals. Instead of a heartwarming family reunion, she accidentally awakens “The Whistler,” an ancient, malicious entity. It’s signature tune signals impending doom and compels those who

If you thought your dating life was a horror movie, just be glad you aren’t Bear. Director Curry Barker‘s horror movie, Obsession, is currently terrorizing audiences and making everyone rethink their relationship boundaries. The movie, now in theaters, has already racked up a staggering 96% Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The Simp-to-Psycho Pipeline The plot centers on Bear (Michael Johnston). He is a lonely music store employee who is trapped so deep in the friend zone with Nikki (Inde Navarrette) that he can’t even see the light of day. Instead of doing normal things like “downloading Tinder” or “going to therapy,” Bear finds a mysterious, aggressively creepy toy and uses it to make a supernatural wish to win Nikki’s heart. Because this is a Blumhouse film and not a 90s Rom-Com, the universe immediately gives Bear a masterclass in buyer’s remorse. His wish is granted, but the results lean significantly more toward “frantic sprint for survival” than “happily ever

Fresh off the bloody success of his survival thriller Send Help, Sam Raimi is refusing to let horror fans catch their breath. Last year, we learned he was producing a reboot of the 1978 psychological cult classic Magic. Now, he has officially upgraded his status to director—because why watch from the sidelines when you can personally orchestrate a dummy-induced panic attack? The Team: Getting the Band Back Together This “newly imagined” take on the vintage killer-doll flick is set up at Lionsgate and features a killer lineup of creative talent. Raimi is reuniting with Send Help scribes Mark Swift and Damian Shannon (the delightfully chaotic minds who also gave us Freddy vs. Jason). Joining Raimi in the dugout are horror heavyweights Roy Lee, Chris Hammond, and Tim Sullivan, with Meredith Wieck and Pavan Kalidindi overseeing the madness for Lionsgate. Given the agonizing psychological warfare Swift and Shannon cooked up for Send Help, handing them and Raimi a psychotic wooden puppet
