The upcoming, still untitled, Pet Sematary prequel is still adding cast members to its roster. Variety is reporting that “actor, disability advocate and double hand amputee” John W. Lawson (“American Horror Story”) has now joined the cast and will star as “Stanny”. This marks the first time a double amputee has been cast in a leading role. The character was originally not an amputee and was rewritten just for the actor. I have myoelectric hands… or what people commonly call ‘cyborg,’” Lawson told the site. “But most of the time, it’s just my hooks.” . After Lawson auditioned and got a call back he learned that new scenes had been written just for him. “And when I got the new sides,” He said to Variety, “they had completely written the role for the character to be an amputee. Which was freakin’ awesome. Because it was not [an amputee role before] in any way. That, to me, was a real turning

Joshua Radburn Writes A Love Letter To Horror And Darkness With ‘Shells’ – Novel Review

Plot Monsters come in all shapes and sizes and Joshua Radburn’s upcoming novel Shells proves it. At it’s core, Shells is a menagerie of genres and styles that all blend together to create a captivating horror/mystery that is incredibly unique. I am not going to give much of the plot away here because it is one that reader’s need to experience. Radburn has created a plot built of tried and true tropes (like a down and out cop) that are tried and true because they work. The brilliance of this plot is not because it is exciting, terrifying, and keeps the reader guessing (although it certainly does all of that), the true brilliance is how Bradburn pieces everything all together to create his mystery. I think that the plot is best described in the novel’s forward. It is a “plunge into [the] underworld of gangsters, guns, and monsters.” Characters The characters in Shells feel real. They feel like they are

FlixBoss: The Simple Way To Find Something To Watch

Let’s be honest, streaming services, especially Netflix, have become so big that they can be a bit overwhelming. You wouldn’t be alone if you’ve picked something simply because you’d grown tired of searching for something to watch. What if there was a place you could go to find out what’s the best things streaming on Netflix right now or last week? Lucky for us, there is, FlixBoss.com.

Shudder Shares New Clip To Celebrate The Premiere Of ‘Mosquito State’

To celebrate today’s release of Filip Jan Rymsza‘s entomophobia-inducing Shudder Original Mosquito State we’ve got a new unnerving clip to share with you, titled “What’s Going On Here?”. Set in August 2007, we see “a man isolated in his austere penthouse overlooking Central Park, obsessive Wall Street data analyst Richard Boca (Beau Knapp) sees ominous patterns: His computer models are behaving erratically, as are the swarms of mosquitos breeding in his apartment, an infestation that attends his psychological meltdown. On Wall Street, they’re called “quants”—the intense data analysts whose mathematical prowess can make the difference between a fortune and a flop. Consumed with his work, Richard doesn’t often stray from his office or apartment. But when Richard decides to go to a company party, he makes two acquaintances: the mysterious, sylphlike Lena (Charlotte Vega) and one pesky mosquito, both of which take root in his mind, altering his existence in profound ways.” “Finding common ground between Franz Kafka, David Cronenberg,

New Clip From ‘The Last Thing Mary Saw’ Arrives Ahead Of FrightFest Debut

Writer-director Edoardo Vitaletti‘s feature debut, the occult horror-thriller The Last Thing Mary Saw, is heading to Shudder following its debut at FrightFest this week. To mark the occasion, Shudder has unveiled a new clip. The Last Thing Mary Saw begins in Southold, New York, 1843: Young Mary (Stefanie Scott, Insidious: Chapter 3), blood trickling from behind the blindfold tied around her eyes, is interrogated about the events surrounding her grandmother’s death. As the story jumps back in time, we witness Mary, raised in a repressively religious household, finding fleeting happiness in the arms of Eleanor (Isabelle Fuhrman, Orphan), the home’s maid. Her family, who believe they are seeing, speaking, and acting on God’s behalf, view the girls’ relationship as an abomination, to be dealt with as severely as possible. The couple attempts to carry on in secret, but someone is always watching, or listening, and the wages of perceived sin threaten to become death, with the tension only heightened by
