Kevin Smith Shares The Bloody Trailer For Anthology “Killroy Was Here”

Red State and Tusk director Kevin Smith is making his return to horror with the new anthology film Killroy Was Here. Killroy Was Here began as a Krampus movie but was re-written and morphed into a horror-comedy anthology inspired by the “Killroy Was Here” graffiti that popped up during World War II. During the ComicCon @ Home panel, Smith shared the first trailer (below) and compared the film to Creepshow and V/H/S. Smith also stated, “It’s got a theme that runs through it, and all these little stories that happen around [Killroy]. He’s kinda like a kid Avenger. If you fuck with kids, Killroy will show up. And he looks wonderfully goofy. Baldhead and a nose that hangs over the fence. [Robert Kurtzman] designed something that’s kinda horrifying but it’s also goofy at the same time.” Smith’s fellow Jay and Silent Bob star and long time friend Jason Mewes stars alongside Chris Jericho.

Jeffery Dean Morgan Reveals Who He Didn’t Kill In The Walking Dead’s Season 6 Finale

The Walking Dead’s Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who plays the badass leader leader of the Saviors, the bat swinging Negan, has dropped a bomb at Comic Con and revealed who he definitely didn’t kill, and one of the names is a bit surprising. During an interview with Morgan, Steven Yeun, Norman Reedus and Andrew Lincoln, for IMDb News Kevin Smith asked the group about the season finale death scene Reedus pointed at Morgan. Lincoln turned to Morgan, who plays Negan, and asked “Who did you kill, if indeed anyone?” While grinning like a Cheshire cat Morgan simply responds “No one Here.” and Smith screamed out “Spoiler!” Morgan’s response leaves more questions than answers. Was he serious? Did he give away a major spoiler? Let’s hope for Norman Reedus and Steven Yeun’s sake that he was telling the truth. In all there were 11 characters on their knees, the big question is who will die in the dirt at the hands of
