Jessica Biel Transforms Into A Killer For Hulu’s True Crime Series “Candy” (Trailer)
In the first trailer for Hulu‘s new true series “Candy,” Jessica Biel has transformed into an 80’s housewife turned ax murderer, Candy Montgomery, who seemed like the perfect wife and mother, until she snapped. The next image shows Biel as Candy sitting with friend Betty Gore, played by Melanie Lynskey, who would eventually fall victim to Candy, being hit 41 times with an ax. The series is an adaptation of Jim Atkinson and John Bloom‘s nonfiction book, Evidence of Love: A True Story of Passion and Death in the Suburbs, which chronicles Candy’s life, affair, and crimes. According to Hulu, “Candy Montgomery is a 1980s housewife and mother who did everything right — good husband, two kids, nice house, even the careful planning and execution of transgressions — but when the pressure of conformity builds within her, her actions scream for just a bit of freedom. With deadly results.” Pablo Schreiber and Timothy Simons also star in the upcoming limited

Movie Review: The Long Night Is A Surprising Horror That Pits Scout Taylor-Compton Against A Cult
An ancient cult sets out to deliver a demon to its perfect host, in The Long Night starring Scout Taylor-Compton (Halloween, Halloween 2) as Grace, a young woman desperate to uncover the mystery of her origin and who her family is after growing up in foster care. When she visits the home of a man who has promised to her, she and her boyfriend are trapped on a southern plantation and stalked by a group of hooded people in masks. As they fight to survive, the truth behind the cult and Grace’s origin comes to light. As a young woman in crisis, Compton does a fantastic job of capturing her character’s terror and conflict as she fights to survive. Her character is down to earth and is someone audiences can both identify and empathize with. However, Nolan Gerard Funk’s character Jack is rude, snobby, and pretty unlikable. If that was the goal of director Rich Ragsdale, I’ll say Funk nailed
