The Midseason Finale Of ‘The Walking Dead’ Was Filled With Death And Destruction
WARNING SPOILERS! Last night the midseason finale of ‘The Walking Dead’ left many fans in shock when a major revelation was revealed in the final moments. After only a few moments into the episode, we learned that Negan and many of his men escaped after Daryl, Michonne, and Tara sent a truck crashing into the saviors’ compound in the previous episode. When Negan and the Saviors arrived at the gates of Alexandria Rick was nowhere to be found, and the group was in shock. Carl stepped up as a leader, telling the group that it is his “his show”.

As Carl attempted to find safety a grenade hit a nearby car exploding, leaving Carl temporarily unconscious. This where I couldn’t help but wonder why they would

Movie Review: The Rizen Raises the Bar For Lovecraft Inspired Fright Flicks!
As The Rizen begins, a young woman named Frances finds herself being dragged by the arm down a long, gore soaked hallway by a gurgling, chattering, sumbitch with his head wrapped in filthy bandages. What the creature doesn’t realize is he is not dragging a normal woman…no, he is in fact dragging a powder keg of unreasonable violence that merely looks like a woman, and before long ol’ Frances is bashing beastly brains into hamburger with a rock. As she travels on she meets a scientist (neither of our heroes are certain how they ended up in this location), and the duo travel on, fighting more of the monstrous madmen as they come. As our protagonists trek ever onward they unravel some of the mystery surrounding the tunnels, and how they got there; namely a military project to utilize the occult to win the arms race…which of course went over without a single hitch. I’m just F’n with you, it

“Jigsaw” Hits $100 Million At The Box Office
While far from universally loved, “Jigsaw”, the much belated 8th installment in the “Saw” franchise, has been a rousing success, financially at least. It’s been a universally strong year for horror at the Box Office (even while other films struggled) and despite opening far less than it’s predecessors, “Jigsaw” has cleared a cool $100 Million. The days of the annual horror installment seem to be behind us, with nary a peep from the “Paranormal Activity” franchise, and this being the first “Saw” film in over seven years. But with “The Conjuring” universe creeping up on us, and maybe “The Dark Universe” if it doesn’t get cancelled (spoilers: things don’t look good) maybe soon horror fans will have a series to look forward to every Halloween. I love innovation as much as anyone, and any new ways films can be shit-your-pants-scary are A-ok in my book. Still, a little redundancy and familiarity never killed anyone. Well, except for all the poor

Movie Review: J.D.’s Revenge
J.D.’s Revenge begins with a mobster (named J.D. ‘natch) being eliminated in 1940’s New Orleans. Fast forward to the groovy-ass 1970’s and mild mannered student Issac is out on the town with his pals. The gang takes in a hypnotist act with ol’ Issac hopping on stage to volunteer…but instead of quitting smoking, or clucking like a chicken, our hero slowly starts to be possessed by the spirit of J.D. (amid headaches, slaughterhouse imagery, rough sex, and jaunty hat purchasings…and on a side note, his Doctor tells him to smoke some weed and relax…way to be forward thinking movie!). Soon Joltin’ J.D. is completely in command and he begins a murderous plan to even the score with Issac as his unwilling vessel! J.D.’s Revenge is a fun entry in both the blaxploitation and possession genres; it has a likable cast full of familiar faces, with Glynn Turman as Issac giving a great turn going from mild mannered everyman to sadistic

David Harbour Says It Will Be A While Before We See Season 3 Of ‘Stanger Things’
Fans of Netflix’s hit series ‘Stranger Things’ are asking when the show’s third season will premier. In a recent interview with Variety David Harbour, who plays Chief Hopper, broke the news that it will be a while before we see season three and it’s going to leave fans disappointed.

This means that we probably won’t see the season 3 premiere until 2019. Harbour stated that good things take time, but I’m sure that’s not much comfort to those who immediately wanted more as soon as the finished binge-watching season two and instantly want more.
