Horror seems to be taking over TV, and we couldn’t be happier. One of the new horror-themed series to look forward to is CBS All Access’ “Tell Me A Story” from executive producer Kevin Williamson. And the trailer has just arrived. This reminds me a lot of my early days,” Williamson told Deadline. “It took me back to another place. What I like is that there’s nothing on TV like it. It sits in its own little world.” The 10-episode show is based on fairy tales such as “Red Riding Hood”, “The Three Little Pigs”, and “Hansel and Gretel”, with horrifying twists. These characters are dealing what’s going on today,” said Williamson. “All these ideas are brought on to this fun, fast-paced and twisty show.” “Tell Me a Story“ “takes the world’s most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted psychological thriller. Set in modern-day New York City, the first season of this serialized drama interweaves

Movie Review: Knuckleball (2018)

Young Henry (Luca Villacis) is dropped off by his parents for the weekend at his grandpa Jacob’s (Michael Ironside) farm. Things go just peachy as the duo toss baseballs around and do projects around the farm…I mean what could possibly go wrong? Well, gramps dies one night for one thing…so that’s a fuckin’ bummer, but then Henry seeks help from his next door neighbor, a shady as fuck dude named Dixon (Munro Chambers), who just so happens to have had some weird relationship to Jacob. Things go from bad to even more bad as Dixon pulls out all the stops to keep Henry from learning some deep, dark family secret…which he’s more than willing to kill the boy to protect. The main thing that sells Knuckleball is the strength of it’s performances. Villacis is a fine actor, especially given his age, and he manages to be likable and (thankfully) not annoying like so many kids in fright flicks…and Chambers is

Blu-ray Review: Anthropophagous (1980)/Absurd (1981)

After wandering through a small village in Greece (accompanied by one hell of a raunchy score), two German tourists arrive on a beach and get them selves all murdered up by something that comes out of the ocean. Speaking of tourists, five pals and their new acquaintance Julie (Tisa Farrow) plan on touring the islands. They hop on a boat, drink some Cokes, play some guitar, and ignore ominous Tarot card warnings…as one does. Soon most of the gang (minus the outrageously pregnant Maggie…seriously, she may be in the 5th trimester) go exploring the town…a town which is nearly deserted save for a strange woman in black and a cannibalized corpse here and there. Things aren’t going to well back at the boat either as Maggie is abducted, and the boat is set adrift stranding the group on the island where they shelter in a seemingly empty house. Soon they learn that a foul smelling, diseased, beast of a man
