Horror is a genre that never goes out of style. From the original Universal Classic Monsters, to Alfred Hitchcock’s iconic filmography, to the massively successful The Conjuring: The Last Rites, there will always be films that terrify. However, among the endless canon of horror greats, there is one film that holds a very unique record. Night of the Living Dead may be something of a small film, but it is undoubtedly a classic. The film has not only gone on to influence countless other zombie movies, but has a deep, social meaning. And, thanks to an interesting loophole, it has…
In recent years, there has been a shift in audience turnout for theatrical releases, and it has become increasingly apparent as time goes on. Now, a new box-office hit may have just solidified a change in audience expectations for the entertainment industry. Iron Lung started as a modest, independently financed project that quickly outperformed far more expensive studio releases. Iron Lung’s massive success is not an outlier in the industry, as other films in the past couple of years have revealed a pattern in the audience’s shifting preferences. More viewers are seeking out films that feel distinct and personal, a…
The supporting cast fair no better. Edward Linton (Shazad Latif) is also retooled, now a nice but dull man who lives in a house so antithetical to his sensibilities it’s laughable we’re asked to believe he decorated it in such a manner.

The standout in the cast is good old Martin Clunes as Cathy’s miserable drunkard father Mr.…
Disney+ has a reputation as the streaming service for kids. This is not undeserved. Disney is one of the biggest brands in children’s entertainment, and has been for roughly a century. The childhood icons of multiple generations — from Mickey Mouse, to Davy Crockett, to Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy, to Scrooge McDuck and Launchpad, to Woody and Buzz Lightyear — can only be streamed on Disney+.Indeed, when Disney+ first launched in the fall of 2019 it focused on all-ages entertainment to the exclusion of everything else; there wasn’t a single R-rated film in its entire archive. But in subsequent years they…
Some movies don’t need good reviews — they just need curiosity. And Hurry Up Tomorrow has that in spades. Despite landing with a 14% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, the divisive 2025 thriller has surged into Starz’s Top 3, cementing itself as one of the most talked-about streaming titles of the moment. Love it or loathe it, viewers are pressing play in huge numbers — and staying to see what all the fuss is about. The film stars The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) as a fictionalized version of himself: a world-famous musician spiraling under the weight of fame, insomnia, regret, and…
Chris Pratt is all set to return to the screen in an upcoming Apple TV movie, which seems like the perfect follow-up to the actor’s underrated Prime Video show. There have been mixed reports about Chris Pratt’s return in Avengers: Doomsday. Owing to this, it is unknown whether he will reprise his role as Star-Lord in the upcoming MCU movie. However, the actor has several other exciting TV and movie roles lined up. In one of them, he will play a role that will be reminiscent of his part in his Prime Video action thriller. The movie in question is…
