The Lore: A Livestream from Hell The movie centers on Jason (known to his digital followers as “Java”), a popular social media influencer and coffee shop owner who makes the ultimate mistake for online validation. Looking to spice up a livestream, Jason unboxes a mysterious, vintage tabletop card game. What starts as innocent unboxing content quickly turns into a desperate fight for survival.

Every single card drawn summons terrifying, hyper-realistic creatures directly

Keanu Reeves Teases Upcoming Sci-fi Shark Movie

While director Tim Miller (Deadpool) is currently keeping the official title of his next sci-fi thriller quiet, John Wick star Keanu Reeves just gave the ultimate elevator pitch. When Collider caught up with the internet’s favorite action icon to ask what exactly lured him into Miller’s mysterious new sandbox, Reeves didn’t mince words.

The Loop: A Caribbean Bloodbath Reeves’ delightfully blunt synopsis lines up perfectly with the chaotic plot details that surfaced earlier this year. The untitled Warner Bros. project centers on a smuggler. He finds himself completely marooned in the middle of a deadly double-cross while pulling a job in the Caribbean Sea.
