Legendary Comics Plans To Keep You Up At Night With ‘Sleep Terrors’

Legendary Comics, like its parent studio, is known for blockbuster storytelling and memorable characters who drive the action. Their latest original graphic novel is all of that with a dash of sleep-deprived, fast-paced fright that will keep you up at night. Sleep Terrors is written by Cavan Scott (Star Wars: The High Republic, Justice Society) and features art by Stephanie Son, is an all-new tale of revenge gone wrong that is destined to keep you up at night, and it’s the exact kind of menacing late-summer monster romp you need to kick off spooky season. Horror fans can score an exclusive hardcover edition (among many other rewards!) in a crowdfunding campaign that ends September 21, 2022. The book follows tortured soul Terri Shepherd as she learns, to her shock and creeping dread, that people who wrong her — even in the slightest! — are getting brutally killed by some unseen force while she sleeps. The monster is kept at bay

Movie Review: “Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux” (Toronto International Film Festival)

I first saw famed Canadian auteur Guy Maddin’s debut feature Tales from the Gimli Hospital at the San Francisco International Film Festival when the film was on the festival circuit in 1988, and I was instantly captivated by its old-fashioned style, gripping visuals, and decidedly offbeat sense of humor. I have been an admirer of Maddin’s work ever since, and this new Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux 4K version supported by Telefilm’s restoration program, with some additional material incorporated, took me back to that initial viewing experience, doing so with marvelous visual and audio clarity. It is impossible to place Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux neatly into one or two genres, as the film incorporates several, but suffice it to say that elements of horror, thriller, dark comedy, absurdist comedy, and other genres abound. Looking for all the world like a lost black-and-white early talking film unearthed, Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux, shot on 16mm, uses light

Real Monsters: Pedro Lopez, The World’s Worst Serial Killer Is Free To Kill Again

There are few things more despicable than a person who hurts children. When I hear about someone abusing a child it leaves me fuming and hoping that they get a heavy dose of karma. When it comes to bad men who hurt children, there is no one on earth worse than Pedro Alonso, a kidnapper, rapist, serial killer, necrophiliac (he has sex with dead bodies), and rumored cannibal. Born on October 8, 1948, Columbian native Pedro Alonso, known as “The Monster of the Andes,” is the worst serial killer to ever walk the earth with an estimated body count of 300 victims, all children. Lopez had a rough start in life (not an excuse). His father was killed before he was born. He was the 7th of 13 children. Lopez admitted that his mother was abusive and had to turn to prostitution to take care of the family, often bringing home customers and sometimes having sex in front of Pedro
