While many associate the spooky season with fall, summer offers its own brand of chills—especially when it comes to comics. The 90s reign supreme in the hearts of horror fans, and for good reason. These teen-centric slashers are perfect for summer breaks. Capturing that summer nostalgia perfectly, Archie Comics unleashes a one-shot thriller next week: “Truth or Dare.” Writer Ron Robbins and artist Laura Braga craft a chilling tale centered around Riverdale High’s newest student, Trula Twyst. Trula, a familiar face from Archie’s 90s kids’ comics, isn’t here to make friends. She’s a master manipulator, using behavioral psychology for her dark purposes. In the 90s comics, Trula used her skills on Jughead for comedic effect. This time, the stakes are much higher. Robbins cites horror icons like SAW, Mean Girls, Jawbreaker, and even the infamous “Slumber Party” episode of “Beverly Hills: 90210” as inspirations for “Truth or Dare.” Buckle up because you’re in for a wild ride! Archie Comics delivers

Fans of Netflix’s sci-fi horror phenomenon “Stranger Things” rejoice! To celebrate being halfway through production, a new behind-the-scenes video offers a glimpse into the upcoming fifth and final season and some of the issues production has faced. The new video gives fans familiar faces, including Sadie Sink (Max), who was in a coma, and Millie Bobby Brown, talking about her iconic role of Eleven and how she’s played the character since she was 10.

Nicolas Cage has been busy over the past several years, releasing at least one film a year, including the highly anticipated Longlegs, which just opened in theaters.

The movie is directed by Benjamin Brewer and written by Mike Nilon, who also happens to be Cage’s manager/agent.
