“Kevin Bacon is even in it?” I thought when I watched the official trailer for MaXXXine, which dropped last week. Well, actually, my first thought was, “It’s finally coming out? Jeez. That was a painful wait.” Torturous, really, especially considering we were spoiled by X and Pearl, both of whichContinue Reading
If Longlegs is as creepy as its trailer, it may prove to be one of summer 2024’s creepiest movie offerings. According to Neon, “In pursuit of a serial killer, an FBI agent uncovers a series of occult clues that she must solve to end his terrifying killing spree.” Emphasis onContinue Reading
When I started watching Bodkin, two questions nagged me. The first was, “Is Bodkin a real place?” The second was, “Is it really based on a true story involving a mysterious disappearance during Samhain?” Well, that’s not entirely accurate.

“You might think Berenstain is misspelled,” John Oliver said at the beginning of the “Libraries” episode of Last Week Tonight. “You might remember it as S-T-E-I-N, but that’s wrong.

When Peacock released artwork for Crystal Lake, a Friday the 13th series, at the start of 2023, I was so excited. Especially after I verified that the Instagram post someone had shared with me about it was legit. In fact, I was actually late hearing about it. The news hadContinue Reading
Making a good horror anthology series like American Horror Stories is hard. Even AHS hasn’t gotten it right with all of its seasons. But the first season of the Amazon Original THEM (a.k.a. THEM: Covenant) hit the mark with high ratings. Would its sophomore season, THEM: The Scare, repeat thatContinue Reading
In the trailer for Pretty Little Liars: Summer School, the Liars get bad news. Since they were consumed with unmasking A before he killed them in Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, their grades suffered. They can’t move on to junior year at Millwood High unless they complete summer school. Or,Continue Reading
“Is Discovery Channel venturing into the found footage genre?” I wondered when I first heard about Expedition from Hell: The Lost Tapes. “How’s that going to work?” It was the “lost tapes” part that tripped me up. Were there really some lost tapes that someone found that would tell theContinue Reading
If you’re all about seeing a live-action Scooby-Doo series on streaming somewhere, you may be in luck. The Hollywood Reporter recently dropped deets about such a project in the works at Netflix.
