If you have been suffering from ‘Supernatural’ withdrawals we have something to tide you over until October 12th when the series returns, the first trailer for this season. The boys are back and will have their hands full. It’s been revealed that there is a “new Sheriff in town” in the trailer who wants to claim the throne in Hell. Looking suave in an all white suit, we have to wonder if the new bad guy is actually an angel. We also see Dean praying. Maybe he’s hoping that God will lend a helping hand since Cass (Misha Collins) is gone. Don’t worry, we haven’t seen the last of our favorite angel. I mean he is on the poster. We do get a small glimpse of the power that Jack, the Nephilim, (Alexander Calvert) wilds. He did open the portal to the alternative world as a newborn baby last season. Of course, the world is under threat. But isn’t always

Reality – it’s difficult enough to deal with one’s own mundane reality on a daily basis. So it stands to reason as to why many people are interested in knowing how the other half live. However, what if there was a way to find out not quite how the other half live, but instead how one’s self lives in an alternate, parallel existence? Sounds intriguing, yes? For Heather and Neil, the reality of things is that they seem happy and very much in love. They met at a friend’s birthday party and it’s almost as if it were a twist of fate that brought them together. And from the moment they first lay eyes on each other it’s as if it was preordained that they be together. Of course fate, if you believe in such things, has a funny way about it, and the path it lays out is not always straight and true. And when Heather and Neil meet

Syfy’s ‘Channel Zero’ will return later this month for its second season, ‘No-End House‘. This season centers on Margot Sleator, played by Amy Forsyth (The Path), a young woman and her best friend Jules (Aisha Dee), who visit the No-End House, a bizarre house of horror that consists of a series of increasingly disturbing rooms. When Margot returns home, she realizes everything has changed. Ahead of the show’s September 20th premiere Nick Antosca (Hannibal, Teen Wolf), writer, showrunner and executive producer of ‘Channel Zero’, gave us insight into ‘No-End House’, which is based on Brian Russell’s “creepypasta” tale by the same name. According to Antosca, ‘No-End House’ “takes a familiar horror concept and then takes it in an unexpected direction.” He also said, “I think the people will be interested in the character’s journey.” When we asked “One of the characters in the trailer states that there are 6 rooms in the No-End House. But in the story, there are

Last week, we announced that the upcoming Lore T.V. show has an official release date of Friday, October 13th. We included a brief teaser trailer in that article. As with most teaser trailers, we really weren’t shown a lot of what we can expect from the television show itself. Well, this morning a new, “official” trailer was released and it is chock-full of creepy images! The Lore T.V. show will be based on the popular Lore podcast, hosted by Aaron Mahnke, and it will give us 6 distinct episodes. Each episode will cover a piece of folklore that has given us many of our modern horror staples–werewolves, vampires, changelings and many other paranormal entities. The shows will use a combination of animation, narration and live action re-enactments. Rest assured, the likelihood of this series being a flash in the pan is slim, due in large part to the amazing talent that is backing the production up. Executive producers include an

The Sites Rotten Tomatoes ruined the summer 2017 boxoffice. The New York Times published this article on film review aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes (read here). The site has been around almost twenty years. I was first introduced to it back in 2003-2004. As the Internet gained more of a foothold, Rotten Tomatoes expanded its base; and now, according to this article, its power to influence box office performance. Sounds like those parents who subscribe to the “not my kid” mentality. Couldn’t possibly be US, it has to be the school, society…anyone but us and the bad product we made. I wrote a similar article, which could be a companion piece (here) a few months earlier when another finger pointing article on RT got some press. Can a website that amasses critical reviews have so much impact on a film’s box office performance? Hollywood spins it both ways whenever convenient. When it comes to a franchise like Transformers, the studios love

For many people, Coulrophobia (the fear of clowns) is all too real. No matter if the fear was triggered by Stephen King’s IT, a childhood trauma, or when serial killer John Wayne Gacy’s crimes became public, the fear is understandable. There is something inherently disturbing about someone hiding behind colorful makeup. The first episode PBS’ new digital weekly series ‘Origin of Everything’, hosted by Yale Doctoral candidate Danielle Bainbridge, has just premiered on YouTube and Facebook and explores the clowns went from characters entertaining kids to the villain of our nightmares. And we have the episode here to share with you (with the show’s permission). The series is dedicated to exploring the idea that the past is always present. Every aspect of modern life whether it’s the words we use, the foods we love, the objects that get us through the day, the geographical borders that surround us or even the identities we give ourselves, emerge from the past.

Ryan Murphy and Sarah Paulson, who have worked together many times in the past of projects like ‘American Horror Story’ and ‘American Crime Story’, are teaming up again for ‘Ratched’, a Netflix original series set in 1947 about the evolution of the vicious nurse played by Louise Fletcher in the 1974 classic One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. In One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Nurse Ratched was a cold, heartless tyrant. Her character was used as a metaphor for how power can corrupt in environments such as hospitals and mental institutions. The role won Fletcher an Oscar. Netflix has already given the green light for two seasons of ‘Ratched’ which is set to go into production in 2018 with the pilot penned by Evan Romansky. Murphy and Michael Douglas will be serving as executive producers with Paulson producing.
