Why do cattle mutilations still plague the American West? According to the new documentary On the Trail of UFOs: Night Visitors, the latest documentary from Small Town Monsters, the phenomenon which was popularized through references in shows like “The X-Files” and “Unsolved Mysteries”, continues to this day. Today, cattle mutilations are thought to go hand in hand with mysterious objects in the skies (commonly referred to as UFOs or UAPs) and that’s what first brought indie documentary crew Small Town Monsters and investigator Shannon LeGro to the Miller Ranch in southern Colorado. While filming this latest chapter in their series, LeGro and company found an unusual amount of activity centered around this particular ranch. Everything from odd lights seen in the air and on the ground, to unusual sounds, enigmatic government black helicopters and even specific corners of the property that seemed to invite deadly accidents. At the heart of all this bizarre activity was a series of cattle mutilations

The new series adaptation of the hit game “Halo” is already making waves over on Paramount+. The series has broken the record for the “most-watched” series premiere in the network’s history in its first 24 hours, stealing the title from “Yellowstone’s” incredible prequel series 1883 which debuted in December with over 4.9 million views, Deadline reports. The series, which has already been renewed for a second season, is produced by 343 Industries and Amblin Television, and follows “an epic 26th-century conflict between humanity and an alien threat known as the Covenant.” In the premiere, a group of rebels are attacked by aliens and the Spartans (nearly unkillable soldiers) come to the rescue, unfortunately, help comes a little too late for many. But for one teen, it’s just the beginning of her journey. Pablo Schreiber (“American Gods”) stars as Master Chief. Jen Taylor is reprising her role in the video game series as Master Chief’s AI companion, Cortana. Danny Sapani (“Penny

When I sat down to watch director Le-Van Kiet’s shark movie The Requin I was banking that it would be a decent movie, after all, it stars Alicia Silverstone and James Tupper. Well, let’s just say I was more than disappointed. In the movie, “There’s terror in paradise when Jaelyn (Alicia Silverstone) and Kyle (James Tupper) arrive at a remote seaside villa in Vietnam for a romantic getaway. A torrential storm descends, reducing the villa to little more than a raft and sweeping the couple out to sea. Suddenly, another danger appears a school of great white sharks. With her injured husband watching helplessly, Jaelyn must battle the deadly predators alone in this tense thriller that rides an unrelenting wave of fear.” First off, the dialogue is awful. Silverstone’s character’s nonstop whining (like a toddler) was so f*cking annoying I was cheering for the sharks. In fact, I’d rather kiss a great white on the lips than be stuck on
