Jack Osbourne is taking viewers to the edge of the unknown in the new, two-hour special, “JACK OSBOURNE’S NIGHT OF TERROR: UFOs“, premiering this September on discovery+. In his latest quest, Osbourne teams up with his actor friends Jason Mewes (“Clerks,” “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back”) and Jamie Kennedy (“Scream,” “Son of the Mask”) to venture out on an out-of-this-world journey for answers behind the strange activity surrounding Utah’s Uinta Basin. This infamous basin and its vast desert landscape are shrouded in supernatural mystery, and sightings of otherworldly visitors date back centuries. Home to the infamous paranormal hotspot Skinwalker Ranch, the Uinta Basin is a highly active supernatural site. Reports of UFO sightings and alien abductions have long defined this area.

Now Becky and Hunter’s expert climbing skills will be put to the ultimate test as they desperately fight to survive the elements, a lack of supplies, and vertigo-inducing heights in this adrenaline-fueled thriller co-starring “The Walking Dead” star Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

'They/Them' Star Darwin Del Fabro Talks Horror And LBGTQ+ Pride

‘They/Them’ Star Darwin Del Fabro Talks Horror And LBGTQ+ Pride

The LBGTQ+ horror film They/Them is headed your way. Ahead of its premiere, I sat down with actor and musician Darwin del Fabro to discuss not only the film’s horrors but also Darwin’s character, Gabriel, and the importance of LBGTQ+ films. The movie, pronounced “they-slash-them,” is set at a conversion camp, as if that isn’t scary enough, “Several queer and trans campers join Whistler for a week of programming intended to ‘help them find a new sense of freedom.’ As the camp’s methods become increasingly more psychologically unsettling, the campers must work together to protect themselves. Things get even more dangerous when a mysterious killer starts claiming victims.” Written and directed by “Penny Dreadful’s” John Logan, the slasher also stars Kevin Bacon, Anna Chlumsky, Carrie Preston, Theo Germaine, Quei Tann, Austin Crute, and Monique Kim. Kelli: “So did you get your start in theater? I noticed on your website that you’ve had a lot of work in theater, a lot

Movie Review: Disaster Movie 'Shattered Earth' Isn't A Disaster

Movie Review: Disaster Movie ‘Shattered Earth’ Isn’t A Disaster

Hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fans of disaster thrillers just can’t get enough of the action and the destruction. The truth is, we just don’t get enough high-quality movies with good stories. But once in a while, we actually get one worth watching. My interest peaked a couple of weeks ago when I reported on the Chinese-made disaster movie Shattered Earth. I In the film, a peaceful town turns into a living hell when a devastating earthquake is triggered, causing buildings to tumble and sinkholes to open. A retired railway soldier and his son, an explosives engineer, travel deep into a cave to rescue trapped survivors. However, a second terrifying quake is just hours away, threatening to bury the whole town in a massive landslide. We’ve got films that include every natural disaster, but we’ve never gotten a film of this magnitude about an earthquake that caused a landslide, which is the major threat. It’s nice to see something new. The film

'Squeal' Trailer Teases That A Little Piggy Should Have Stayed Home

‘Squeal’ Trailer Teases That A Little Piggy Should Have Stayed Home

From director Aik Karapetian comes the dark horror-comedy Squeal, written by the director and Aleksandr Rodionov. The trailer has arrived teasing that a little piggy should have stayed home.

Lost in remotest Eastern Europe, on the edges of a mythical forest, a minor road accident leads to a chance meeting with a pig farmer’s daughter Kirke (Laura Siliņa). Sam soon learns that his priorities must change if he wants to survive. Her initial hospitality is a smoke screen to capture him and make him a forced laborer on the farm. Alone, unable to speak the language, and chained up 24/7 with the pigs, he learns to adapt. Fortunately, a seemingly magical piglet gains Sam’s confidence and shows him the way to freedom and true love.
