There’s no better time to discuss the horror genre than during the month of October. After all, it is the month of Halloween – and most people, including horror fans, are using the opportunity to binge watch copius amounts of horror movies. But what if you’re eager to watch some of the scariest movies ever made? How could you decide what that list would consist of? Well, a new infographic has been made – one that’s designed to gather the “top 20 scientifically scary movies.” The infographic was created by Broadband Choices, and it’s appropriately titled “The Science of Scare.”…

It’s no doubt that one of the most exciting announcements in recent history for DC fans is that Justice League would finally be getting the much desired “Snyder Cut.” Fans had been rallying for Zack Snyder’s original interpretation of the film ever since the film was instead finished and released under Joss Whedon’s creative control. Now that production is underway on Zack Snyder’s Justice League, the official title for the project, we’re learning all sorts of interesting tidbits for the film. For example, it’s just been revealed that actor Jared Leto will be reprising his role as The Joker from…

Although The Addams Family franchise has recently seen success on the big screen as an animated feature film franchise, it looks like the iconic characters will also be headed back to television.

As revealed by Deadline: “In what would mark his first major live-action TV series, Tim Burton is setting his sights on The Addams Family, looking to develop a new series focused on the famous clan.” Aside from Tim Burton, it looks like…

It’s been announced that the creator of Netflix’s It’s the End of the F—ing World, Jonathan Entwistle, is still enlisted to reboot the iconic Power Rangers franchise. What’s particularly interesting about this latest announcement, compared to past efforts to revive the franchise, is that Jonathan Entwistle will be directing both theatrical and television adaptations of the Power Rangers franchise. This new take to have the Power Rangers franchise rebooted across various mediums comes from eOne, a production banner recently acquired by Hasbro. As revealed by eOne’s film president Nick Meyer and global television president Michael Lombardo in a joint statement,…

We’ve only gotten little details so far for the upcoming reboot of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre film franchise, but now the first teaser poster has been released.

Actor Bruce Willis has revived his character Detective John McClane for a new Die Hard themed commercial, one which brings back a few other memorable Die Hard characters as well. The commercial, created for Advance Auto Parts’ new “DieHard” battery, is the perfect spoof for any fan of the iconic action film (or maybe Christmas movie, depending on who you ask.) Of course, what’s interesting about this particular commercial and Die Hard story, is that the entire narrative is structured around Bruce Willis’ John McClane eager to find a working car battery. And in the process, he winds up crossing…

It isn’t a surprise for anyone that 2020 has been an outright wild year for the history books, and along with everything else going on – it appears aliens and UFOs are being added to the list. United States President Donald Trump has recently acknowledged this, having stated that he would be taking a “good, strong look” at whether or not UFOs really do exist. This is no doubt due in part because of recently declassified materials on UFOs released by the United States government. With a variety of materials, including video footage of alleged UFO sightings, it makes sense…

The 2018 film Halloween successfully revived the long-running slasher franchise. By acting as a direct sequel to the original 1978 Halloween, it gave fans another chance to see Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode go up against Michael Myers in a rather exciting third act. However, the third act in which Michael Myers is trapped in a burning house wasn’t always the plan. In fact, a completely different ending was originally shot – one which has so far been revealed only in script pages. But some fans have managed to recreate the original Halloween 2018 alternate ending by editing together…

The trailer was recently released along with an announcement that The Witches would be headed straight to HBO Max. On top of this exciting news, actress Anne Hathaway – who plays the Grand High Witch in the film – has revealed a special new video. In it, fans can see a glimpse of the hideous transformation Anne Hathaway will go through as the Grand High Witch in The Witches – as…
