Today, we’ve learned that the dark, Gothic series will be returning for a second season, and we couldn’t be happier about it.

Based around the famous Comet of 1822, the cosmic event thins the veil between our world and the supernatural world releasing creatures who will do anything to eat.

4K Ultra HD Review: The Toolbox Murders (1978)
A black garbed man drives through the streets of Los Angeles having all manner of dreadful flashbacks involving a fatal car accident before arriving at an apartment building (home to an inordinate amount of absolutely stunning women… and absolutely vomitus design choices) where he strolls on in, toolbox in hand, and straight up murders three women with various implements found therein, before pissing right the fuck off. Despite landlord Vance Kingsley (the legend that is Cameron Mitchell, he of Bava’s 1964 proto-giallo Blood and Black Lace fame… and countless more) ensuring the fuzz that his complex should never have befallen such tragedies since he does such thorough background checks, the same shit happens the following night, as our ski mask wearing psycho offs a chick who’s just tryin’ to flick the ol’ bean, before abducting young Laurie Ballard (Pamelyn Ferdin), which sends her brother Joey (Nicolas Beauvy) and Kingsley’s nephew Kent (Land of the Lost‘s… a.k.a. the greatest Wesley Eure)

Short Film Review: Meat Friend (2022)
Ever wonder what ALF would be like if Gordon Shumway was constructed from 80/20 ground beef? No? Well you are readin’ the wrong column mother fucker! Speaking of “mother fucker”, those words start with the letters “M” and “F” just like the new short Meat Friend, which comes flingin’ our way from director/co-writer Izzy Lee! Meat Friend stars the eponymous creature (voiced and puppeteered by co-writer Steve Johanson), a living wad of hamburger meat with cataract eyes who befriends young Billie (a fantastic performance from child thespian Marnie McKendry), a kid that really needs to pick better people… or more accurately “ground chuck” to pal around with. To put it bluntly, Meat Friend is a Grade-A, U.S.D.A. approved psychopath and when he isn’t being resurrected (via Billie’s science prowess) after being rightfully tossed in the trash by Billie’s long-suffering mother (Megan Duffy), he’s giving life lessons learned straight from the streets of Hell and demanding strange meat-centric ceremonies take place!
