Critters Is Getting A Reboot

The bad news, Verizon’s Critters series has been given the ax, but there is good news (sort of). We are getting a Critters reboot which is set to begin filming in South Africa this January. Syfy is behind the reboot that is being produced by Adam Friedlander. But that’s all we know. So far, Syfy is keeping details hush, hush. The original 1986 film, directed by Stephen Herek, starred Dee Wallace, M. Emmet Walsh, Billy Green Bush, and Scott Grimes. In the movie, a group of small, furry aliens makes lunch out of the locals in a small town. Critters went on to spawn three sequels, with the last being released in 1992.

Movie Review: The Super – Starring Val Kilmer And Patrick John Flueger

Lionsgate’s supernatural thriller The Super, from director Stephen Rick, is approaching its arrival on Blu-ray and DVD. I had the opportunity to watch it and I’d like to share my thoughts with you. “Chicago P.D.” actor Patrick John Flueger stars as Phil, a father who starts a new job as the Super of an apartment building. Phil moves his two daughters, who are still reeling from the loss of their mother, into their new apartment that’s more of a storage room than a home. It doesn’t take long for Phil’s co-worker Walter, played by Val Kilmer, to focus on the girls, especially the youngest, Rose (Mattea Conforti). As the building’s tenants begin to disappear Phil thinks that a killer is at work and comes to believe that Walter may be behind it all. But, not everything is as it seems. Just when you think you’ve figured out what’s going on you’re hit with a huge twist that you won’t see

Nicolas Cage Teases His Next Movie Is His Wildest Yet

Nicolas Cage has starred in some pretty wild films, most recently Mandy which is balls to the wall crazy. You would think that it is the craziest he can get, but you’d be wrong. During the third annual Macao International Film Festival this past weekend Cage teased that his next film, Prisoners of the Ghostland, the English-language debut of Sion Sono (Suicide Club), is his craziest yet. And that’s saying something. I’m thrilled about it! It’s unlike anything I’ve ever read before. It might be the wildest movie I’ve ever made, and that’s saying something,” Cage told the crowd. “It’s out there. I wear a skintight black leather jumpsuit with grenades attached to different body parts, and if I don’t rescue the governor’s daughter from this state line where they’re all ghosts and bring her back they’re gonna blow me up.” He continued, “It’s just crazy. It’s way out there.” According to IMDb, Prisoners of the Ghostland is a supernatural

Art Meets Horror In The Supernatural Thriller Don’t Leave Home

From writer-director Michael Tully comes Don’t Leave Home, the supernatural thriller starring Anna Margaret Hollyman, Helena Bereen, Mark Lawrence, Karrie Cox, David McSavage, and Lalor Roddy. In the film, “After recently unveiling her new sculptural exhibit on Irish urban legends, artist Melanie Thomas is contacted by Father Alistair Burke, a reclusive Irish priest who, legend has it, once painted the portrait of a young girl who later disappeared on the very day her image vanished from the painting. Now, summoned by Burke and his cohort to the Irish countryside for a special art commission, Melanie eagerly accepts the offer, never stopping to consider that some urban legends might be true. Being praised as “GET OUT with Catholic guilt in the Irish countryside” (Indiewire), Don’t Leave Home proves that not all mysteries should be solved.” George Rush, Jeff Allard, Ryan Zacarias, Tristan Orpen Lynch, Aoife O’Sullivan, and Wally Hall produced. Don’t Leave Home is now out on Digital and Blu-ray, from
