In 1990, a little film by the name of “Tremors” sent some powerful ripples through the horror film community. The writing team of Brent Maddock and S.S. Wilson along with director and co-writer, Ron Underwood dropped upon the world a movie about subterranean monsters that terrorized the small town of Perfection, Nevada. It was a cult hit that flourished once it hit video rental stores and managed to spawn six sequels in addition to a short-lived television show. Die-hard franchise fans will know that after “Tremors 4: The Legend Begins,” Universal Pictures shifted control of the series away from its…

It’s a good time period to be a fan of Kaiju. Those of us old enough to live through the disaster that was 1998’s “Godzilla” feared that would spell the end of giant monster movies. For a while, it did. Thanks to films like “Cloverfield,” and the reemergence of the actual “Godzilla” franchise, Kaiju are back and better than ever. Some of this may not have been possible though without “Pacific Rim.” Oscar winner Guillermo del Toro’s love letter to giant monster films gave Legendary Pictures a new franchise to play with. With the help of Amazon MGM Studios, the…
Chad Stahelski has been trying to get his “Highlander” off the ground for a good decade. In 2021, it was confirmed Henry Cavill would star. While we haven’t had any set news for awhile, we do know the project, which was being developed for Lionsgate, has moved to Amazon MGM Studios / United Artists. Michael Finch, who previously worked with Stahelski on “John Wick: Chapter 4,” is penning the script. Stahelski justifies the lengthy development time for the sake of wanting to get this franchise revival done properly. “It’s just a tough nut to crack because the Highlander property is so involved…
In case you forgot- because WE DID- Peacock’s “Twisted Metal” series got picked up for a second season. A trailer for the upcoming season has dropped, promising to deliver the kind of vehicular combat mayhem that you’d expect from the video game franchise of the same name. And now, we have a release date. This season could be well worth waiting for considering that it’s going to feature what many viewers thought they were going to get in season one; the actual Twisted Metal tournament. In case you forgot the plot of the games, (and who would blame you, they…
Oh “Clueless,” further evidence that the works of Jane Austen will continue to resonate through time in various forms. The 1995 teen comedy was largely inspired by the novel “Emma,” but is primarily known today for being intensely quote worthy and making Alicia Silverstone a household name, along with her character Cher Horowitz. Since all things retro seem to be coming back with a vengeance lately, especially from the ’90s, it was only a matter of time before “Clueless” was revived in some way shape or form as well. As it turns out, that time has come, and Silverstone is…
Of all the toxic environments that the internet has created, few have the level of infamy that 4chan has. The level of anonymity it’s provided users has led to profound amounts of hate mongering, conspiracy theorizing, and targeted harassment of others. But hey, sometimes someone posts a funny meme there, so it evens out, right? While not every user has contributed to the toxic environment, the site’s reputation has made it a target for other communities to hack and attack. Seems like one of them was so effective, it may be the end of 4chan itself. Over the last couple…
Fyre Festival 2. This absolute mess of an event had more red flags flying up than a bad Tinder date. With a scheduled date of May 30th-June 2nd, 2025, only one confirmed artist, two possible locations that weren’t confirmed, and a vague list of events, there was no way it would’ve ended well. But festival founder and convicted felon Billy McFarland was insistent that the festival would happen as planned. And shocking, it won’t. There was no possible way that this event was going to happen as intended, with the lack of announced artists and 2 disputed venues. To be…
It might be called the happiest place on Earth, but some visitors to Disneyland probably weren’t too happy with what they saw last Saturday. It’s not too often you see someone naked at a theme park, as long as you dismiss Donald Duck not wearing pants. That’s what happened in the California park over the weekend, and you can count the naked individual as one of the unhappy people considering he was promptly arrested. The Anaheim Police Department responded to a situation on Saturday when reports of a nude individual at Disneyland started making the rounds. The naked man, identified…
The film division of Warner Bros. Discovery has not been having a very good go of things over the last year and a half or so. For every hit they had like “Dune: Part Two” or “Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice,” they had massive financial failures like “Joker: Folie a Deux.” 2025 wasn’t looking much better with the back-to-back bombs of “Mickey 17” and “The Alto Knights.” Then along came “A Minecraft Movie,” and the fates of co-chairpersons / CEO’s Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy turned around quickly. And their plan to continue that good fortune involves confirmation of more sequels; for…
Comedy is a subjective thing; always has been and always will be. This is something that “Saturday Night Live” knows full well having been in the comedy game for 50 years now. There has been no shortage of skewering of public figures on the show, from actors, to politicians, to athletes. When does it go over the line though from comedic to unnecessarily mean? If you were to ask actress Aimee Lou Wood, it happened to her on the most recent episode of “SNL.” Wood’s career started to take off with her portrayal of Aimee Gibbs on Netflix’s “Sex Education”…
