We have good news and we have bad news, so let’s start with the bad. You will soon have to invest in another streaming service. WarnerMedia is kicking off their own streaming service with a new installment of the Gremlins franchise, an animated series. Variety reports that the series, currently in development, is said to be “a period piece that would follow Mr. Wing as a young man as he goes on adventures with the friendly Mogwai Gizmo.” Tze Chun (“Gotham”) is on board to pen the series, which sounds like a prequel to the 1984 original film directed by Joe Dante. Warner Bros. Television and Amblin Television will be producing.

Blu-ray Review: The Possession of Hannah Grace (2018)

Ex-cop and (sorta) reformed alcoholic Megan (Shay Mitchell) just took a job handling morgue intakes at Boston Metro Hospital…and although she would assume that most folks check in but they don’t check out, she has yet to meet the corpse of one Hannah Grace (Kirby Johnson) who found herself on the losing end of one those demonic possession/exorcism deals that we all know and love in our beloved horror biz. Speaking of Hannah, our femme fatale doesn’t stay lying down for long, and soon she’s a-herkin’ and a-jerkin’ around that morgue killing folks to heal her wounds, and Megan will be lucky if she sees the dawn! First up, and probably most important to you boils n’ ghouls is the fact that although the word “possession” appears front and center in the flicks title, the actual “exorcism” material you lot would assume would be plentiful in The Possession of Hannah Grace is mostly relegated to the first five minutes of

Jen And Sylvia Soska’s Reimagining Of Rabid Slaying At Screenings

When Jen and Sylvia Soska‘s reimagining of David Cronenberg’s 1977 classic, Rabid was announced last year I was thrilled. I’ll be honest, I’ve been a fan of the “Twisted Twins” since I first saw American Mary back 2012. Today, I have the pleasure of reporting that the sisters announced via Twitter that Rabid has been officially completed. On top of it, the film has already been test-screened and people are singing its praises. There’s a type of postpartum depression that comes with finishing a film. We directors, we’re masochists. We live for it. When it’s over, there’s just a huge void. That said, I’m excited for the future. — The Soska Sisters (@twisted_twins) February 22, 2019 Laura Vandervoort stars alongside Greg Bryk, Stephen Huszar, Benjamin Hollingsworth, and Stephen McHattie. What happens when you realize that to achieve your dreams you have to live a nightmare? Rose (Laura Vandervoort) is a quiet, demure, unassuming woman in her looks and actions. Her

David Harbour Explains How Hellboy Is Different From The Original

When the new Hellboy movie was first announced I was a bit disappointed to hear that Ron Perlman would not be reprising his role as Hellboy. But when it was revealed that “Stranger Things” star David Harbour had been cast as the star, my curiosity was peaked. This time Guillermo del Toro is not involved. Neil Marshall is directing Hellboy, which has scored a hard “R” rating for violence. You may be wondering what makes Harbour’s Hellboy different from the original. During a recent interview with Empire, Harbour explained how his version of the character is different. We’ve also got a new poster (below). [Perlman] does something quite extraordinary in those [Hellboy] films [directed by del Toro] that is very specific to him, and I did not want to imitate that in any way. In our movie Hellboy’s younger. He’s rougher. He’s much more of a teenager. He’s really struggling with the idea of whether or not he’s a good

After healing up, and entering one of those existential crises man/machines often find themselves in…or so I’m told, Alex is kidnapped by his old boss, Commissioner Farnsworth (Tim Thomerson) for one last mission; stop his old girlfriend, the android Jared (Marjorie Monaghan), from delivering security details of an upcoming summit between the U.S. and Japan to Angie-Liv (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa); the leader of the Hammerheads…and if he refuses the bomb in his heart, placed courtesy of Farnsworth, will explode. But, things aren’t exactly what they seem with the R.A.H., and soon Alex is up to his eighty-six point five percent still human ass in bullets, bad guys, butt cheeks and…well killer robot skeletons; as one does. Holy shit Nemesis…what a fucking picture! This baby has it all; insane action
