Flying Lotus Unleashes Track “Mudhole” From ‘The Furious’
If you had “the return of a fictional, anonymous, cult-classic rap alter ego” on your 2026 bingo card, congratulations. Captain Murphy—the dark, pitch-shifted pseudonym of electronic polymath Flying Lotus (Steven Ellison)—has officially crept back out of the internet shadows. His mission? To drop “Mudhole,” an original, skull-rattling track for Lionsgate’s upcoming martial arts thriller, The Furious, hitting theaters on June 12. Produced alongside Brainfeeder labelmate Little Snake, the track is a textbook definition of a menacing rage record. Built on a cold flow and an absolute bulldozer of a beat, “Mudhole” weaponizes ordinary sounds. That includes a car unlocking or a cartoonish wind whoosh—and strips them of any warmth. To complete the nostalgic trip back to the project’s 2012 roots, the track features visuals by longtime Adult Swim animator Adam Fuchs (aka Lilfuchs). This creative mind helped forge the Captain’s original, occult-tinged iconography. A Sonic Onslaught for a Perfect 100% Masterpiece “Mudhole” is the ultimate sonic companion for The Furious.

The Thrilling Best-Seller ‘The Chain’ Gets the Series Order from HBO
Imagine the worst phone call a parent could ever receive: your child has been kidnapped. Now, imagine the ransom isn’t a briefcase full of unmarked bills. Instead, it’s a demand to go out and abduct someone else’s kid. Welcome to the moral meat-grinder limited series “The Chain.” This deeply disturbing, ethically bankrupt premise originates from Adrian McKinty‘s bestselling 2019 novel. HBO has officially locked it down for a prestigious eight-episode limited series. If you thought your family dynamics were stressful, wait until this hits your screens. Stephen King Approved (So, Prepare to Be Traumatized) You know a thriller is appropriately twisted when the Master of Horror himself stands up and applauds. Stephen King is a massive fan of the original novel, publicly crowning it a “nightmarish story” that is “incredibly propulsive and original.” King threw in a final ominous warning for good measure: “You won’t shake it for a long time.” Consider ourselves thoroughly warned.

They were designed to breathe new, blood-soaked life into Bryan Bertino’s original home-invasion masterpiece. The Ultimate Box Office Paradox To say Chapter 1 divided audiences would be a massive understatement.

But moviegoers didn’t care about the reviews. With a budget of $8.5 million, it went on a rampage at the box office, grossing over $48 million worldwide.

Zack Snyder Set to Reboot ‘Escape from New York’
Hide your eyepatches and brace your eardrums for some intense, bass-boosted needle drops. Zack Snyder has officially signed on to write and direct a total reimagining of John Carpenter’s dystopian sci-fi masterpiece, Escape from New York. Because if there is one thing modern Hollywood firmly believes, it’s that absolutely no classic should be left un-rebooted. Announced by StudioCanal, the project is being developed specifically for a theatrical release. The Picture Company’s Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman are producing alongside Snyder, Deborah Snyder, and Wesley Coller (Stone Quarry). In a move that will hopefully keep the project from completely veering off the rails, John Carpenter himself is on board as an executive producer. The Ultimate Cynical Anti-Hero For those who need a refresher on why the original film. It has long been considered untouchable; the 1981 classic introduced the world to S.D. “Snake” Plissken (immortalized by Kurt Russell’s peak-badass charisma and a perfectly placed eyepatch).

New Trailer: From the Director of Final Destination 5 Comes ‘Black Box’
Let’s be honest: flying commercial in the modern era is already a universally dreaded test of human endurance.
