Trust Turns Into Paranoia This April In The Horror ‘Bleed With Me’ (Trailer)

RLJE Films, a business unit of AMC Networks, has acquired the dark Shudder Original Bleed With Me, from AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thriller, and the supernatural, and set an April release date. Written and directed by Amelia Moses (Bloodthirsty), Bleed With Me stars Lee Marshall (“The Detectives”, “19-2”), Lauren Beatty (Bloodthirsty), and Aris Tyros (“In The Dark”). In the film, “Rowan, a vulnerable outsider, is thrilled when the seemingly perfect Emily invites her on a winter getaway to an isolated cabin in the woods, not knowing she has a taste for blood. Trust soon turns to paranoia when Rowan wakes up with mysterious incisions on her arm. Haunted by dream-like visions, Rowan starts to suspect that her friend is drugging her and stealing her blood. She’s paralyzed by the fear of losing Emily, but she must fight back before she loses her mind.” RLJE Films will unleash Bleed With Me on DVD and Digital on April 19,

HBO Max And Discovery+ Will Soon Be One Big Service

HBO Max And Discovery+ Will Soon Be One Big Service

Discovery is in the final stages of acquiring Warner Media from AT&T. So, what does that mean? One thing that will come out of the deal is that eventually, Discovery+ and HBO Max will be combining into one massive service. Gunnar Wiedenfels, the chief financial officer of Discovery had this to say to Variety. “So right out of the gate, we’re working on getting the bundling approach ready, maybe a single sign-on, ingesting content into the other product, etc., so that we can start to get some benefits early on. But the main thrust is going to be harmonizing the technology platform. Building one very, very strong combined direct-to-consumer product and platform, that’s going to take a while.” HBO Max already hosts several channels on its service including TCM, DC, Adult Swim, and others. It would be fairly simple for HBO to just add more sections for Discovery properties such as the Travel Channel, HGTV, and the other 80 plus

Review: Fun.com's Killer Halloween High Tops

Review: Fun.com’s Killer Halloween High Tops

Last week we shared the new killer Halloween/Michael Myers high tops and low tops from FUN.com. Being the shoeaholic and horror fan that I am, when I saw them I HAD to have a pair for my collection. I filled out the easy form and paid $39.99 for the high tops. And they arrived FAST, I’m talking three days. When I opened the box I found the shoes well wrapped in heavy plastic. I am impressed by the detail and quality. The stitching looks great and the images of Michael Myers are printed clearly on black fabric. There’s a stripe of orange fabric going down the back with “Halloween” printed on it. The high tops are lightweight and comfortable. As for sizing, I ordered a pair of women’s size 8 and they fit perfectly. The shoes come with black laces, but I was surprised to find an extra set of orange laces in the box. I also found another little
