There’s not a horror fan out there that doesn’t like slasher movies. It all started with Black Christmas in 1974 and then the Eighties came and suddenly the horror subgenre was huge. Since then there have been countless others and it’s perhaps the subgenre that first-time horror directors on a small budget go for. Which is exactly what Martin Renner, director of Buzz Cut has done.
There are a few things that you need to get right when making a slasher film and the most important, that almost everyone will agree on, are the death scenes. Get them right and almost everything else can be forgiven by your average horror fan. So I’m very glad to say that Buzz Cut does get it right! The death scenes...

David Spade revealed in a recent profile in Esquire magazine that his longtime collaborator Chris Farley expressed interest in reuniting for a third feature film together about two months before his death. Toward the end of their runs on “Saturday Night Live,” the two comedians joined forced to headline the 1995 buddy comedy “Tommy Boy.” Although the film was not a box office hit (it grossed only 32 million worldwide), it became a bonafide cult classic thanks to its home video release. Spade and Farley quickly reunited a year later for “Black Sheep.”
“Two years after ‘Tommy Boy’ came out, they told us it made 100 million on video. We couldn’t believe it,” Spade said. “It really grew over time. We talked about doing another one, but Farley wanted to do more drama, so I said, ‘Go do that.’ I ran into him two months before [he died] and he was like, ‘Everyone always...

Exclusive: National Geographic’s award-winning documentary Torn is about to make its streaming platform debut.
Disney+ announced it will premiere the film, directed by Max Lowe, on February 4. Torn tells the story of world-renowned mountain climber Alex Lowe, who was killed in an avalanche in the Himalayas in 1999. He left behind a wife, Jennifer, and three young boys—sons Max, Sam and Isaac. Max, now in his 30s, directed the documentary in part to come to terms with his father’s death, and to process all that came after it.
Accompanying Alex Lowe on that ill-fated expedition were fellow climber Conrad Anker, himself a legendary talent and a close friend of Lowe’s, and cameraman David Bridges. The avalanche also killed Bridges, and left Anker seriously injured but alive. Anker spent time with the Lowe family after Alex’s death and eventually Jennifer and Conrad fell in love and married.

Back when WarnerMedia (which technically no longer exists in the same form) announced that it would be premiering its entire slate of 2021 films on HBO Max, this is the kind of month they likely had in mind. For HBO Max’s list of new releases in August 2021 is highlighted by an honest-to-goodness blockbuster.
The Suicide Squad is set to premiere Aug. 5 on HBO Max. This film featuring some of DC Comics’ most curious villains borrows its name, format, and many of its characters from the David Ayers-directed 2016 film Suicide Squad. This time around, the rogues gallery is directing by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) and his colorful disposition. In addition to The Suicide Squad, August sees the arrival of the Hugh Jackman-starring Reminiscence on Aug. 20.

Morgan won Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist and Top Country Album for Dangerous: The Double Album. Morgan was nominated for six awards.

Some of us think about this kind of thing all the time, either as an obsession or part of our overall worldview, while some folks might not give much thought to the idea of what happens when our souls move on and possibly get lost. The gist of 9 Days appears to be that a recluse in the middle of a metaphysical nowhere gathers wayward souls to be reborn, a process that takes up to 9 days to accomplish. During this time it would appear that these souls are given the opportunity to choose, to ruminate, and to possibly reflect

This year’s Sundance buzz was difficult to parse, with a range of movies pleasing various contingencies at the festival, but one breakout pleased critics and jurors alike. Director Lee Isaac Chung’s “Minari,” the 1980s-set tale of a Korean-American family struggling with their new life in rural Arkansas, topped IndieWire’s annual critics poll just days after the movie won Sundance’s Grand Jury Prize.
A record 187 accredited critics and journalists participated in the survey, with results showcasing many of the most acclaimed titles at the festival. Kirsten Johnson’s “Dick Johnson Is Dead” won Best Documentary with 25.8% of all participants casting a vote for it, while “Minari” dominated Best Film with 31.2%. The runner-up in the Best Film category, the Carey Mulligan drama “Promising Young Woman,” topped the Best First Feature category with 17% of the vote.
“Minari” was the consensus choice at this year’s Sundance for many audiences.

The Oscar-gilded Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody may have a sequel in store, according to Page Six. This news came straight from Rudi Dolezal, a director behind many of the band’s videos and a close friend of Freddie Mercury. To be very clear: we have no idea whether or not this is true. And even if it is being discussed it doesn’t mean anything will ever happen. But that doesn’t mean we can’t try to imagine what a Bohemian Rhapsody sequel might look like.

"He always has something interesting to say," said Cates in a news release. "Chris represents the best of the new generation of comics. Having him host the Oscars is terrific. I can't wait." Rock currently is shooting The Longest Yard with former SNL castmate Adam Sandler. His other film credits include Head of State, Bad Company, Down to Earth, Nurse Betty, Osmosis Jones, New Jack City, Lethal Weapon 4 and Dogma. The ceremonies take place Sunday, Feb. 27, 2005.

Simpson will produce, with Lary Simpson Prods. head of development Amy Dean serving as executive producer. The deal was negotiated for the producers by attorney Tom Hunter.

Recently divorced Silence of the Lambs star Sir Anthony Hopkins has made a public appearance with his new love Stella Arroyave. The couple appeared together at a special dinner in Los Angeles, where Oscar-winner Sir Anthony, 64, handed over his honorary mayorship of Pacific Palisades to Police Academy actor Steve Guttenberg. The couple appeared at ease with each other and often shared intimate moments, with Stella, a 46-year-old antiques dealer, at one point leaning over to whisper something in his ear. The couple was first spotted together last month at the New York premiere of his new film, Bad Company. The Hannibal star divorced wife Jennifer in April after 29 years of marriage.

Controversial comedian Chris Rock has branded former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani "crazy," insisting he shouldn't be getting all the praise he does for his time in office. The star of the upcoming movie Bad Company says that since leading the people of New York back to relative normalcy following the terrorist attacks of 9-11, Giuliani has been heaped with praise. But Rock insists that the politician did nothing special--and he's still the "crazy" character many perceived him to be before the attacks. He says, "Rudy did his job--that's all he did. Hey, the guy went out of his way, I will say. But that's the gig. You know, I had a girlfriend who was sexually attacked years ago, when I was seventeen or whatever, and I nursed her back to health, helping with the swollen eyes, feeding her, getting her back to the point where she could go outside. But I was her boyfriend--that was my gig. It's not like they should put me on the cover of Boyfriend Monthly." He adds, "Put it this way, if Rudy Giuliani hadn't left office, he was gonna do something crazy eventually. That's just him--he's crazy. He would've had a dust tax on all the dusty buildings or something. He did a good job but that's what he was supposed to do."...
