Surprise David Lynch Movie Reportedly Coming to Cannes?

Bloody Disgusting’s The Northman review is spoiler-free. “I will avenge you, Father. I will save you, Mother. I will kill you, Fjölnir.” The eponymous character repeats this mantra from childhood, immediately after witnessing tragedy, well into adulthood. It focuses his primal rage, directing his hate and tying his fate to a singular mission of revenge.  The Northman remains so steadfast in its commitment to vengeance through punishing violence, gritty authenticity, mesmerizing

Sarah Dumont and Others Join Charles Manson-Inspired Movie ‘Man’s Son’

Well, that was short-lived. Variety had reported on the rumor just yesterday that David Lynch was going to be bringing a secret new movie to Cannes this year, the scoop coming from “two well-informed sources.” The site even reported that Laura Dern would be appearing in the mysterious movie, but alas, Lynch himself has shot down the rumor completely.

Kevin Smith Horror Movie ‘KillRoy Was Here’ Finally Releasing Soon… as Limited NFT

Kevin Smith returns to horror with the upcoming anthology film KillRoy Was Here , which originally began as a Krampus film before being re-written.

Jack White has suggested that The Rolling Stones copied The Beatles in a new interview. Speaking to  MOJO , White praised frontman Mick Jagger saying that he was “smart” and was always “feeing whatever the hippest thing was” in the 1960s, including, he went on, “copying” The Beatles – their biggest rivals of the day.

Morbius Easter Eggs: all the teases and references

Part of the fun of superhero films is finding all the references and easter eggs that the filmmakers put in so that comic fans can have some fun callbacks to the source material. Morbius is no different. While not a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it does still tie into the multiverse story that they are currently in the middle of telling. Sony has been trying to get their own shared universe off the ground for a while, even before Spider-Man entered into the shared agreement wit

Drakeo The Ruler’s brother slams Grammys for snubbing rapper in memoriam segment

Drakeo The Ruler‘s brother has called out the Recording Academy for not including the late rapper in the 2022 Grammys In Memoriam segment. Drakeo, real name Darrell Caldwell, died in December of 2021 when he was fatally stabbed during an altercation at Los Angeles’ Once Upon A Time In L.A. concert. He was 28-years-old. “It comes off as a spit in the face disregarding the facts that we’ve created an entire movement that generated the momentum for underground, emerging L.A. artists to h

Idris Elba admits he sold weed to Dave Chappelle before he got The Wire

The Daniels’ latest feature has everything. In fact, it has Everything Everywhere All at Once. This delightfully fresh new multiverse adventure is like nothing you’ve seen before.

Look, if you have Michelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis headlining a film, it’s a damn good thing. Still, the two are surrounded by excellent performances, and two of those happen to

‘The Robert Englund Story’ – Upcoming Documentary Has Wrapped Filming

The anthology is a unique subgenre of horror. In addition to the offbeat structures and a predilection for the strange and unexpected, these films generally do as they please. There are of course specific traditions almost all anthologies adhere to, but there is no set rule for how they come together in the first place. Films like Creepshow are made from scratch, but the 1980s saw the rise of a new kind of anthology; the ones pieced together from preexisting material. An early example
