If you’ve seen the trailer for Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One that was released this weekend, then you already know it was full of pop culture references. There’s Freddy Krueger, the Iron Giant, the cycle from Akira, and the DeLorean from Back to the Future. It’s a nonstop nostalgia-filled roller coaster ride. But there’s a vehicle in particular you may have missed from Stephen King’s Christine.

Kevin Feige has unveiled some very interesting news regarding the upcoming Captain Marvel adaptation at this year’s SDCC. This includes the villains of the film – which are revealed to be the Skrulls. Aside from that surprising news, it turns out the film will be set in the 1990s, and feature an appearance from Samuel Jackson’s Nick Fury! Best of all, Fury is said to be appearing with both eyes.

He’s been dealing with not only staying faithful to the source material of the novel, but also living up to the expectations set by the 1990 miniseries. And now it appears that he isn’t actually a fan of the miniseries at all. While speaking with Variety, Muschietti spoke about writing the novel into two film scripts. He explained how his film will remain closer to the spirit of the novel in comparison to the miniseries despite various changes to King’s story: “Most of the people are excited…

It looks like Sony’s Venom spin-off will be taking some cues from a few rather iconic horror directors. It was recently announced a few months ago that Sony had chosen Tom Hardy to portray Venom, and that they intended to use the character on his own without any Spider-Man connections. Of course, rumors persist that it may still be connected to Marvel’s cinematic universe, so only time will tell where Venom belongs. Meanwhile, Sony has made clear they want this film to be rated R, with sci-fi and horror elements. Now in response to Variety, Columbia Pictures president Sanford Panitch…

Everyone remembers Stan Winston for his amazing special effects career. What some may not remember, however, is that he made his directorial debut with 1988’s Pumpkinhead – a cult horror classic. The film even gave way for three direct-to-video sequels. This includes 1994’s Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings, 2006’s Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes, and 2007’s Pumpkinhead: Blood Feud. And there’s currently even a reboot in the works from Saw producer Peter Block. Aside from film sequels, the movie was popular enough to warrant a comic series in 1993. Two issues were released by Dark Horse and then cancelled before a third…
