While American cinema has produced some of the scariest and most important horror flicks, international horror movies contain an edge many U.S. films lack. Because American cinema dominates the film industry in general, most people are familiar with classics such as The Exorcist and Halloween, but international horror films follow an entirely different formula and explore the unpredictable even more than some U.S. scary movies. The 1970s saw a boom in international horror cinema, where the world’s international anxieties, politics, and threats were explored in some of the most unnerving movies of all time....

For those hoping for Bryan Cranston’s Walter White or Aaron Paul’s Jesse Pinkman to re-surface on this Breaking Bad spin-off, you’ll have to keep waiting, since this character isn’t who you think it might be....

In an age when TV sitcoms are really struggling and networks are really having to fight for viewers, there is at least one show that is truly thriving. The Big Bang Theory has been going strong for almost 10 whole seasons now and if all goes well, and all signs now point to that being the case, there will be plenty more Big Bang on the way. It looks like CBS knows what they have, and they are putting up the money to make sure that The Big Bang Theory will continue on at least through season 12....

There were two overriding themes in this week’s episode of Bionic Woman. The first was that it’s never a good idea to lie. Even when the truth is painful, it’s the best option. And the second theme would be that having bionics in your body is inevitably a bad thing. So, the episode begins with Jamie running down an alleyway, seemingly in pursuit of a bad guy. She throws up a car door to reveal… Becca, making out with a college-aged kid....

Bruce Campbell’s appearance as Pizza Poppa in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness always seemed like a Sam Raimi moment and nothing more. Now in an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con, Campbell has not only suggested that his character is not just about being Pizza Poppa, but that he has signed a deal to appear in multiple Marvel movies. While Campbell professes that he cannot go into more details, and will already be in trouble for saying as much as he has, if true, this has the potential to lead into a number of fan theories about Marvel’s expanding multiverse....

Joaquin Torres is an MCU character that premiered in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, played by Danny Ramirez. He is a Mexican-American soldier fighting for the United States and will eventually become the superhero known as the Falcon.

Hearing that an upcoming project will be an experimental film can oftentimes give pause to moviegoers. It might mean that the filmmakers have chosen to sacrifice quality in favor of attempting to revolutionize the format. Alternatively, the plot could be excessively convoluted, as the creatives behind the project are willing to overlook a coherent story to achieve their eccentric vision. However, other film fans get excited when they hear that a non-traditional movie is being attempted....

Feature films have been delighting, shocking, scaring, and making the audience laugh and cry for over a century. In that time, thousands of actors and actresses have graced the silver screen. Less, but still a significant amount have gone on to superstardom, dating back to silent films when Greta Garbo, Rudolph Valentino, and Charlie Chaplin were all big stars. Incidentally, while Garbo (born in 1905) is a member of what’s called the Greatest Generation, Valentino (1895) and Chaplin (1889) are members of the Lost Generation (1883 -1900) which is characterized as the generation of Prohibition and World War I....

According to Safra Rashtchy, a senior media analyst with Piper Jaffray, it is the World Wide Web that shines the brightest for the future of home video. In a recent article from Home Media Retailing, Rashtchy says that talk of video-on-demand conflicting with online movie-rentals is “exaggerated.” “We are the verge of a new era in the way people will consume electronic entertainment,” said Rashtchy. “We will see a number of new initiatives....

Many actors who have played Batman have put their own unique spin on the role. Adam West, Michael Keaton, Christian Bale are just a few whose portrayals of The Dark Knight have seared themselves into public memory.

Conroy first voiced Batman in Batman: The Animated Series, which ran from 1992-1995....
