A Masked Killer Hunts Camp Counselors in ‘Final Summer’ – Out Now

Independent filmmaker John Isberg is politely asking horror fans to pack their bags and head back to camp, though survival is strictly optional.

Jack In: Apple TV’s New Series “Neuromancer” Hacks SDCC with Its First Teaser

The San Diego Comic-Connews feed keeps surging, and this time, Apple TV+ is plugging straight into the matrix. During the SDCC festivities, Callum Turner made a surprise virtual appearance to drop the very first teaser for Neuromancer—the long-awaited series adaptation of William Gibson’s seminal, multi-award-winning science fiction novel. The 10-episode cyberpunk epic officially boots up globally on Friday, January 22, 2027. It will launch with a two-episode premiere before dropping new chapters weekly through March 19. High Stakes, Low Life, and Razor Blades For the uninitiated, Gibson’s 1984 masterpiece basically invented the modern concept of cyberspace (and popularized the entire cyberpunk genre). The series follows Case (Turner). He’s a washed-up, damaged, top-tier super-hacker who gets dragged back into the neon-drenched underworld of digital espionage and high-stakes crime. Partnering with Molly (Briana Middleton)—a cybernetically enhanced “razor-girl” assassin with mirrorshades sealed over her eye sockets—the duo is recruited to pull off a dangerous heist against a shadowy corporate dynasty hiding game-changing secrets.</p>

The Monsterverse is Expanding with a New “Monarch” Spin-off

Apple TV+ is officially adding some heavy hitters to its monster roster. Millie Brady (The Last Kingdom) and Pilou Asbæk (Foundation, Game of Thrones) have signed on as series regulars for Legendary’s upcoming, as-yet-untitled Monsterverse spin-off series. They join the previously announced lead, Wyatt Russell, who is back into the uniform of Young Lee Shaw from Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. Exactly who Brady and Asbæk are playing is currently classified higher than a Monarch field report. Top Gun Meets Godzilla Helmed by showrunner Joby Harold, the series trades the modern era for the neon-and-paranoia of 1984. We follow a younger Colonel Lee Shaw (Russell) as he embarks on a top-secret mission behind enemy lines. His objective? To stop the Soviet Union from unleashing a horrific new Titan. One massive enough to turn the tide of the Cold War. Because apparently, nuclear deterrence wasn’t stressful enough without a giant lizard involved.

Apple TV+ Just Renewed the Hit Genre Series ‘Widow’s Bay’ for Season 2

Pack your bags and prepare to be haunted: Apple TV+ has officially renewed its hit horror-comedy “Widow’s Bay” for a second season! And we are totally here for it! The announcement comes at the perfect time, dropping just ahead of the highly anticipated season one finale on Wednesday, June 17. Clearly, Apple is so obsessed with this island nightmare that they’ve also locked down creator and showrunner Katie Dippold (Ghostbusters, The Heat) to an exclusive, multi-year overall deal. The series, led by Emmy winner Matthew Rhys, quickly secured a Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes (even holding a flawless 100% score at its debut). Critics are already calling it “the show of the summer” and “better than Martha’s Vineyard”—though, to be fair, Martha’s Vineyard has significantly fewer ancient curses. Rebranding an Island (With Terrible Cell Service) Set 40 miles off the coast of New England, Widow’s Bay follows Mayor Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys), a man trading Soviet espionage (The Americans)
