Pet Sematary Director and James Wan Reviving "The Munsters" with New Series

Pet Sematary Director and James Wan Reviving “The Munsters” with New Series

A chilling twist is coming to America’s favorite monster family. Universal is reimagining the classic 1960s sitcom “The Munsters” with “1313.” The title is a not-so-subtle nod to the family’s iconic address at 1313 Mockingbird Lane. This reboot promises a unique blend of the original sitcom’s zany humor with a dash of horror. Deadline reports that it is helmed by James Wan‘s production company, Atomic Monster, known for its chilling films like The Conjuring and Malignant. The series is directed by Lindsey Anderson Beer, who we interviewed about her horror prequel Pet Sematary: Bloodlines. “1313” reimagines the sitcom that captivated audiences for two seasons (1964-1966) and continues to entertain. The original series offered a satirical look at 1960s American suburbia through the eyes of a lovable monster family. The series centered on Herman (Fred Gwynne), his vampire wife Lily (Yvonne De Carlo), their werewolf son Eddie (Butch Patrick), and Lily’s vampire father Grandpa (Al Lewis). Their “normal” cousin Marilyn (Beverley

Spoiler Free Movie Review: Does Abigail Live Up to the Hype?

Spoiler Free Movie Review: Does Abigail Live Up to the Hype?

Abigail has arrived on Digital, and the hype is real! This unique spin on the vampire myth chills audiences and offers a bloody good time. Forget the sparkly teen romance – Abigail throws a dark, brutal, and twisted vampire into the mix. Abigail is kidnapped for ransom. However, the kidnappers get far more than they bargained for when they discover their captive is a monstrous creature with a complicated past. This unexpected twist breathes new life into the vampire genre. Young, talented Alisha Weir delivers a hauntingly good performance as the titular Abigail, a young ballerina grappling with her monstrous nature and the feeling of abandonment. Weir is surrounded by a stellar cast that includes Dan Stevens, Kathryn Newton, Kevin Durand, and Giancarlo Esposito. Together, the cast brings both heart and brutality to their roles, especially Melissa Barrera, who gives an intense performance. Gorehounds rejoice! Abigail is a blood-soaked thrill ride, exploding with graphic violence and relentless action. It’s not

Movie Review: Deathdream (1974) - Blue Underground 4Kk/Blu-ray combo

Movie Review: Deathdream (1974) – Blue Underground 4Kk/Blu-ray combo

Deathdream is the kind of flick that begins featuring the horrors of ‘Nam and the value of a man that can carve a roast all in equal measure (for the record, Roastmaster General’s son Andy is who we see buying the farm in Vietnam). Anyway, the family learns their son is dead and begins grieving… except later that night ol’ Andy comes home alive and…well alive anyway (after hitching a ride with a trucker who winds up dead after some high-larious antics at an all-night diner). Over the next few days Andy acts weird A.F.; he’s quiet, pale, and only offers a small smirk to anyone that talks to him…plus he picks up some new hobbies like wandering around cemeteries in the dead of night and simultaneously beating down androgynous kids who karate chop him with one hand while strangling a dog with the other (an underrated talent to be sure). Well, it turn out ol’ Awesome Andy is some

Twelve Years After 'Twilight' Kristen Stewart Bares He Fangs in New Movie

Twelve Years After ‘Twilight’ Kristen Stewart Bares He Fangs in New Movie

Kristen Stewart, best known for her role in the Twilight franchise, is gearing up to bare her fangs once again, this time in Flesh of the Gods, from Mandy director Panataos Cosmatos and Se7en writer Andrew Kevin Walker. Oscar Isaac, of Ex Machina and “MoonKnight,” will star opposite Stewart. The two will play Raoul and Alex, a “married couple in glittering ’80s L.A. who descend each evening from their luxury skyscraper condo and head into an electric nighttime realm. When they cross paths with the mysterious and enigmatic Nameless and her hard-partying cabal, Raoul and Alex are seduced into a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills, and violence.” Kristen Stewart, who also starred in the ocean monster movie Underwater, recently discussed Flesh of the Gods on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast while discussing the toxicity of Edward and Bella’s love story in the Twilight saga. “Like Los Angeles itself, Flesh Of The Gods inhabits the liminal realm between

Spoiler-Free Review: “Department of Paranormal Affairs” (Calgary Underground Film Festival)

Spoiler-Free Review: “Department of Paranormal Affairs” (Calgary Underground Film Festival)

If you’re in the mood for a brisk supernatural comedy, you need look no further than the new Canadian six-part episodic short-form series Department of Paranormal Affairs. The series boasts highly likable characters in decidedly irregular situations. In the world of Department of Paranormal Affairs, ghosts, vampires, and other things that go bump in the night are real. This branch of the government deals with them in a different way than usual in series and movies. Rather than hunting them down to dispose of such entities, this agency looks to help them fit in positively with human society. The department’s civil servants consist of Director Greg LeGrow (Donovan Workun), who does as little as possible; Scott Power (David Feehan), the straight-laced rule follower of the bunch; and new hire Jenny Hicks (Nancy Ngo), who initially would rather punch a ghost than read a book about how to properly deal with one. Series creator Feehan, who shares screenwriting credits with Jessy
