The 2022 horror film M3GAN surprised audiences by introducing a modern-day icon. The titular character, a robot initially designed for kids and later turned into a killer, has now been reinvented as a real-life doll. NECA announced the life-size M3GAN doll which can be purchased for $500. Officially, fans can pre-order the doll from the NECA website for $494.99. The price is comparable with some of the Chucky replicas released by NECA and Trick or Treat Studios, so it’s likely going to be a similar quality. For fans that want their very own M3GAN, especially ahead of the sequel slated…

The Matrix helped redefine the sci-fi blockbuster when it was released in 1999. It was followed by two sequels in 2003, and a third sequel – as well as reboot of the franchise – titled The Matrix Resurrections in 2021. Now, with a much shorter time gap, it’s been revealed that The Matrix 5 is in the works – with Drew Goddard slated to direct. The original three Matrix films were all directed by The Wachowskis. The Matrix Resurrections was directed by Lana Wachowski. As such, The Matrix 5 will be the first live-action Matrix film not to be directed…

The 1923 novel Bambi, a Life in the Woods, was the inspiration for Disney’s successful animated adaptation Bambi from 1942. Now it’s seemingly inspired a completely different kind of movie – Bambi: The Reckoning – the trailer for which you can see below. As the footage reveals, Bambi: The Reckoning is actually a horror movie that turns the titular childhood icon into a killer. If you weren’t already aware, that’s because this film comes from the creators of Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey and its newly-released sequel. Additionally, this is only the first of several other new horror-themed iterations…

The sequel to 2019’s Joker, Joker: Folie à Deux, has had fans eagerly waiting to see what director Todd Phillips and star Joaquin Phoenix have up their sleeves.

Now it looks like Joker 2 will be even more of a surprise, especially now that a controversial plot rumor has been revealed to be true. This plot rumor, of course, is that the Joker sequel is actually a musical – something that’s stunned many fans hoping Joker…

Disney has been hard at work with figuring out which direction to take the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise. The films were quite popular due to Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow, though due to his legal debacle with Amber Heard, his remaining time as the character was left unclear. Now another update for the Pirates of the Caribbean film series implies a bleak future ahead for Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp has been associated with Pirates of the Caribbean ever since the film franchise launched with The Curse of the Black Pearl in 2003. His role as Jack…

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is circling back to include its roster of Netflix shows as part of the main canon. This will begin with Daredevil: Born Again, a successor to the hit series Daredevil, and it looks like fans can expect some other familiar faces to appear. This has been seemingly confirmed in what appears to be the first look at Jon Bernthal’s Punisher in Daredevil: Born Again. Jon Bernthal and his fan-favorite role as The Punisher were both rumored to be part of Daredevil: Born Again. This would certainly make sense, especially when considering Bernthal’s Punisher first appeared in…

There were many successful films released in 2019. Of course, not every film was a guaranteed success for the year, and one comic book movie actually became a major flop at the box office. Now, however, it seems to have found new life on Netflix as audiences are now raising this comic book flop to the top of the streaming service’s charts. This particular comic book film was not the first adaptation based on its respective source material. As such, it seems as though fans weren’t ready for a new take. The consequence of that is that the film made…

The horror genre is widely recognized for its iconic villains that have continued to withstand the test of time. Of course, many of these iconic roles have been recast or reimagined completely over the years. Fortunately, it looks like one iconic horror franchise is getting a new movie – and it’s set in the original continuity. There are very few horror franchises left that still continue within the continuities that established them. Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street are examples of franchises that have been remade. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, on the other hand, has been…
