IT’S ALIVE! FX Resurrects Comedy Royalty with Series Order for ‘Very Young Frankenstein’
Dust off your top hats and practice your tap dancing, because the ultimate comedy necromancy is officially happening. After teasing us with a pilot order last year, FX has officially given a full series order to “Very Young Frankenstein,” Variety reports. The project is a brand-new television expansion inspired by the legendary 1974 Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder cinematic masterpiece. While exact plot details are currently locked away in a secret laboratory, the creative pedigree alone is enough to make any comedy fan start hyperventilating. The Creative Monster Mash: From Staten Island to Transylvania If you want to recreate the lightning-in-a-bottle energy of the original film, you hire the people who spent the last few years making vampires the funniest entities on Television. The series is spearheaded by a powerhouse trio of “What We Do in the Shadows” alums. Stefani Robinson is serving as writer and executive producer.

The High-Priests of Parody Are Back: Wayans Family Unites for New ‘Scary Movie’ Behind-the-Scenes Featurette
It has been exactly 26 years since a suspiciously familiar, tongue-wagging masked killer tried and failed to murder Cindy Campbell and her aggressively dysfunctional friends. But Hollywood refuses to let any intellectual property rest in peace. So, the masters of the spoof genre are officially returning to show the new generation how a cash grab is done. Paramount Pictures and Miramax just dropped a brand-new behind-the-scenes featurette. It gives fans a peek into the chaos of the ultimate comedy dynasty. Marlon Wayans, Kim Wayans, Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, and Craig Wayans all sit down to discuss what it’s like to combine forces for the new Scary Movie, produced by Keenen Ivory Wayans, Marlon Wayans (p.g.a.), Shawn Wayans, Craig Wayans, and Rick Alvarez (p.g.a.).

Nicolas Winding Refn Finally Returns to the Genre with the Neon-Drenched Nightmare ‘Her Private Hell’
After spending a decade wandering the prestige television wilderness—and briefly confusing everyone by directing a BBC children’s show—radical avant-garde auteur Nicolas Winding Refn is finally returning to the big screen with Her Private Hell. The film marks Refn’s first traditional-genre feature since 2016’s hyper-stylized fashion nightmare, The Neon Demon. The Setup: Top Secret in Tokyo Her Private Hell is a thriller set against the neon-drenched backdrop of Tokyo. Given Refn’s track record (Drive, Only God Forgives), expect plenty of synth music, gorgeous cinematography, neon-drenched scenes, and extreme violence. The first teaser has arrived, and it’s stunning. Watch it below. In the film, a mysterious mist descends on a metropolis. A deadly, elusive entity is unleashed upon the city as a young woman searches for her father. On her mission, her path collides with that of a soldier who is searching for his daughter. An Arthouse Dream Team Cast Refn has assembled a spectacularly trendy ensemble of Hollywood rising stars and

Bowel Movements and Standing Ovations: Sci-fi Thriller ‘Hope’ Shakes Up Cannes
Leave it to director Na Hong-jin to bring a multi-million dollar sci-fi epic to the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. And make an elite, haute-couture audience violently laugh about diarrhea. On Sunday night, the Grand Palais was jolted awake by the world premiere of Hope. It is an incredibly ambitious blockbuster focused on an alien invasion in a quiet South Korean town. The result? A raucous 6-minute standing ovation and a theater full of black-tie elites completely losing their minds. The Vibe: Pure, Bloody Chaos Going into the screening, nobody quite knew what to expect from Hope. What they got was a masterclass in tonal whiplash. The film reportedly kicks off with what feels like a continuous sequence of escalating, bloody action. Think gritty survival story meets high-concept sci-fi mythology. It is populated by potty-mouthed local police officers and bewildered rural locals trying to square off against a mysterious, terrifying creature. The Scene Everyone Is Talking About While the action is

Megashark Meets Megajail: ‘The Black Demon 2: Atlantis’ Locks Down Global Distribution
If you thought the giant, vengeful shark from 2023’s hit The Black Demon was satisfied after terrorizing an oil rig, think again. The beast is back. And this time, it has upgraded to a floating maximum-security prison in The Black Demon 2: Atlantis. Highland Film Group has announced a massive wave of international distribution deals for the upcoming survival action-thriller. With production currently underway in Colombia, the world is clearly hungry for more shark chaos. ‘Prison Break’ Meets ‘Jaws’ The sequel trades the open ocean for Atlantis, a remote, offshore maximum-security fortress in the Pacific.

The facility is run by the iron-fisted warden (Vanesa Restrepo). However, things worsen as the cell blocks are terrorized by Diego Núñez (Harold Torres). Diego is a cult-like killer. To top it off, he’s rumored to possess ancient,

Movie Review: The Paranormal (1998) – Visual Vengeance Blu-ray
Something preternatural is taking place within the wicked walls of The Englewood theater down Missouri way! Enter: Kyle Jennings (Todd Norris, who directed and co-wrote the picture along with C. Wayne Owens… who has a roll in the film as well), a paranormal investigator desperate to prove his scientific worth to the university he’s employed by. Kyle, along with his Department Head/believer in the supernatural, Cass Charbonneau (Lisa Winegar), head out to the eerie Englewood (located in his ol’ hometown no less), and finds the theater to be managed by his old high school gal pal, Lynne Meredith (Audrey Crabtree)… who is one of two employees of the establishment along with projectionist Johnnie (Gina Tarantino). The ghostly presence wastes no time, as shortly after our hero’s arrival a campy action/horror film called Z is for Zombie begins playing on it’s own and the doors to the outside world are locked tight by an outré force!

Movie Review: Colony Mutation (1995) – Visual Vengeance Blu-ray
Scientist Meredith Weaver (Anna Zizzo) catches her hubby Jim Matthews (David Rommel) having an affair so she does what anyone would do in that situation… she infects him with her latest experiment that results in severe, uncurbable mutation. Meredith’s problem soon becomes everyone’s dilemma as her douche of a husband gains the ability to send forth monstrous versions of his various and sundry body parts to do the ol’ murder biz on anyone they choose… and given Jim’s ever increasing desire to eat live meat, that body count is going to rise quickly! Tom Berna’s Colony Mutation is like an early Cronenberg flick minus the Canadian tax breaks… but lack of funds did nothing to reduce this feature’s imagination! David Rommel is fantastic as our sleazy, horny, main character, and he really sells both the character’s smarminess as well as his ramping psychosis… not to mention how he relishes in his body’s new found ability to fuck up everyone’s day

Among the possible victims of the beast’s absolutely ape-shit rampage are an adventurer, Hollis Bannister (William Sadler, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, The Shawshank Redemption, Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight), and an oil magnate by the name of Merriell Sunday Sr. (Corbin Bernsen, The Dentist and it’s sequel, the Major League franchise)… the son of which, Merriell Sunday Jr. (Eric Nelsen, 1883), assembles a rag-tag group of adventurers, including Bannister’s estranged daughter Ellie (Brittany Allen, The Boys), to bring ’em back alive… or get their ass handed to them by a crazed cryptid! Co-writers/Directors Gene Gallerano and William Pisciotta really go for the gold with The Yeti cats n’ creeps! What could be a standard creature feature becomes anything but under their guidance as we are thrown into a pulp fantasy adventure starring a Doc Savage and his
