‘The Blackening’ trailer skewers horror’s oldest tropes

<p>We’ll be real with you: At first blush, we thought that Tim Story’s The Blackening seemed like a bit of a played-out riff on one of modern horror’s oldest tropes — you know, that the Black character dies first in any given horror movie — and we weren’t able to catch it at TIFF when it premiered last year. But in retrospect — and in learning that the film was based on a short TV sketch — we’re actually pretty […]</p>

The ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’ teaser will get you to upchuck your cheese

<p>In retrospect, after getting a Nicolas Cage-led ripoff in the form of Willy’s Wonderland, it was only a matter of time before the horror-game sensation Five Nights at Freddy’s made its way to the screen. If you have had tween-aged children between, say, 2014 to the present, you’re probably aware of this very goofy gaming franchise, and if you don’t, well, you might have seen streamers freaking out at its many jump-scares. What we weren’t expecting was that Blumhouse and […]</p>

See Tom Cruise run in the latest ‘Mission: Impossible’ trailer

<p>As much as 2022 was the year of Everything Everywhere All At Once, it was also the year in which Tom Cruise reminded all of us why he’s probably the last true-blue movie star, following Will Smith’s DQ in the aftermath of Smith/Rock I (we’re betting cash money on Rock in the rematch). Here’s proof of this: We’re still listening to “Danger Zone” a full year after Top Gun: Maverick blew our minds left and right. But Cruise himself never […]</p>

Take a ride on the new ‘Haunted Mansion’ teaser

<p>Ever since Eddie Murphy, in the middle of his “easy payday” period of the mid-2000s, kneecapped Disney’s original attempt to bring the Haunted Mansion ride to the screen as a feature-length horror comedy, the House of Mouse has been busy working behind the scenes to do-it-over. Guillermo Del Toro was once attached to direct (back before he parlayed all that Shape of Water glory into Nightmare Alley infamy and Pinocchio success), and he’s still got a writing credit on this […]</p>

Vice Media files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

Vice Media has filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in a New York Federal district court. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a form of bankruptcy, usually used by corporations, which allows a company/debtor to continue to operate while it works on a repayment/settlement plan with its creditors. Under the current proposed chapter 11 plan, numerous Vice creditors are set to purchase the embattled company's assets for $225 million and take on significant liabilities, listed at $500 million to $1 billion. In 2017, the company was valued at 5.7 billion. However, in recent months during the company's troubles, it tried and failed to find a buyer at about $1 billion. Vice co-CEOs Bruce Dixon and Hozefa Lokhandwala wrote in a statement:"This accelerated court-supervised sale process will strengthen the Company and position VICE for long-term growth," "We look forward to completing the sale process in the next two to three months and charting a healthy and successful next chapter at VICE."
