A new tidbit has been revealed for “American Horror Story: Apocalypse“, the highly-anticipated cross-over between ‘Murder House” and “Coven”. The series’ co-creator Ryan Murphy announced Thursday that Cody Fern (The Assassination of Ghianni Versace: American Crime Story) is set to play the adult Michael Langdon. https://twitter.com/MrRPMurphy/status/1022630914575069185 Michael was born to Vivien (Connie Britton) after being raped by Tate (Evan Peters). Jessica Lange’s character adopted the demon child who we saw murder a babysitter as a toddler. Fern joins returning cast members Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Kathy Bates, Joan Collins, Cheyenne Jackson, Billie Lourd, Leslie Grossman, Billy Eichner, and Adina Porter. Emma Roberts and Taissa Farmiga have been teased to be returning, but are not confirmed at this point. Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman (UnReal) and Kyle Allen (The Path) have also joined the cast.

Movie Review: Rondo (2018)
Rondo begins with Paul (Luke Sorge), a PTSD suffering ex-combat vet and alcoholic, getting chastised by his sister cum caretaker Jill (Brenna Otts) who ends up sending him to a therapist (Gena Shaw) who unbelievably recommends that he keeps drinking, and prescribes him a rather unorthodox treatment; namely attending a very bizarre sex party with very specific rules…and an end result for each participant that isn’t quite what one would expect. Paul naturallt decides to exit stage left from the whole affair which results in a different kind of orgy…one of violence that at the film’s half way point changes the paradigm of the story completely…and not in a way you would ever guess! As you can surmise, Rondo is a film packed with twists and surprises, and while that results in an edge-of-you-seat, unpredictable thrill ride for the viewer it makes my job excruciatingly difficult because I can’t discuss the reasons why this film is so amazing without giving

Evil Goes Viral In ‘The e-Demon’ Trailer
Dark Cuts Pictures has acquired North American rights to Jeremy Wechter’s e-Demon, which won writer-director Wechter the Best Director Award at the New York Horror Film Festival. The film, produced by Wechter, Michael Gonzalez, PJ Starks, and Emily Pojman, tells of an escaped demon on a dark and twisted mission that manipulates a group of friends hanging out on a video-chat.

Attempting to hang on to their good old Ohio State days, the gang gets together online for a night of stories, pranks and drinking via webcam.

Blu-ray Review: Streets of Vengeance (2016)
After a seemingly tacked on host segment meant to simulate a USA Up All Night Style program (perhaps added to extend the film’s run time and make it seem like any flaws in the finished product are intentional…something your’s cruelly would know nothing about), Streets of Vengeance begins in earnest, letting us know right off the bat that a psycho (who seems to be part of some anti-sex cult called The Sword) stalks the mean streets slicing and dicing sex workers with wild abandon. Enter porn starlet Mila ( Delawna McKinney) the hottest rising talent in porn who is preparing for her farewell from the industry while she is on top, which begins to set up our list of suspects; could the killer be Mila’s sleazy manager angry about losing his top star, or how about her bickering male co-stars, or could it be Garrett Sullivan (Daniel James Moody) an anti-porn advocate who partakes in a heated televised debate with
