MH370 The Plane That Disappeared poster

Netflix released MH370: The Plane That Disappeared on Wednesday, March 8. At first, I was indifferent about it. “Meh. Are they still talking about that plane?

Miss Cleo on the Jenny Jones show

There I was, scrolling through YouTube the other day, when a blast from the past popped up on the screen. There was the familiar warning I hadn’t seen in decades, followed by a flash of people repeating, “Call-Me-Now!” in that trademark Jamaican accent Miss Cleo used. Ah, Miss Cleo. WhatContinue Reading

nvestigating police line crime scene with covered body

I don’t know about you, but when I think of Jason Blum, normally horror movie franchises like Paranormal Activity or The Purge come to mind. Or just horror movies, period. He’s certainly produced many. However, the prolific producer has also worked on some non-horror hits too, such as Whiplash andContinue Reading

Demon in the White House mockumentary

When I first wrote about Demon in the White House, discovery+’s newest Shock Docs that started streaming on November 26, I got an interesting comment. Author Priscilla Bettis wrote: “Andrew Pyper wrote a book about the Pierce seances and hauntings. I actually learned a lot about life in the 1850sContinue Reading

Top Secret UFO Projects Declassified cover

Is it just 2021 or does every year have months and/or seasons with themes? Lately, I’ve noticed announcements for a lot of UFO documentaries releasing in August.
