2025 has been a slow year for movies so far, as new and original films that people have been craving underperformed severely. Just recently, exciting motion pictures like the sci-fi satire Mickey 17, the action comedy Novocaine, and the spy thriller Black Bag have been pulling in less-than-stellar financial numbers despite the critical praise they've gotten. This current trend has movie fans worried that the products they're enjoying won't make a huge commercial splash.

It's not just the current year of 2025 either. 2024, the year before, also had its fair share of fantastic movies that failed to make a grand impact at the box office. These films had either spectacular action, brilliantly executed concepts, an engaging true-story narrative, or became an unexpectedly magnificent installment in a long-running franchise. Between Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Transformers One, and Better Man, these otherwise acclaimed 2024 movies were unfortunate box office disappointments.

Hidetaka Miyazaki and FromSoftware have pioneered the gaming industry with the Dark Souls trilogy and the sub-genre that it spawned. Miyazaki has been the creative mind behind these games and has really given us some crazy stuff in these games over the years. But what has inspired all of this?

The man has made worlds that have captivated us. | Image Credit: @thegameawards/YouTube

Miyazaki has drawn inspiration from a variety of sources throughout his career, from classic literature to manga like Berserk. But we’ve recently found out that one of the more surprising influences on the game was James Cameron’s Avatar. The world of Pandora has influenced Dark Souls.

Hidetaka Miyazaki was inspired by many things for the Souls games

We can see the impact of Avatar on Dark Souls in the two locations—The Great Hollow and Ash Lake. According to Knowll, Hidetaka Miyazaki described that these...

Quick LinksSean Connery Missed Out On Two Massive Franchises in the Early 2000sThe League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Was Sean Connery’s Final Film

Sir Ian McKellen was the perfect Gandalf in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings film trilogy. He was equally adept at portraying the Wizard as an eccentric old man, a sage mentor, and a divine spirit of near-limitless power, which was a difficult balance to achieve. McKellen was Jackson's first choice to play Gandalf, but he was not the only option considered. Jackson needed to accommodate actors' schedules, the trilogy's budget, and requests from higher-ups at New Line Cinema, so many names were discussed for every major character. One of the front-runners in the discussion was Sean Connery, best known for playing James Bond from 1962 to 1967.

The Lord of the Rings' executive producer, Mark Ordesky, confirmed that an offer was made to Connery, who declined.

The The Cell episode of Revisited was Written by Vannah Taylor, Narrated by Tyler Nichols, Edited by Juan Jimenez, Produced by Tyler Nichols and John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.

Have you ever wanted to take a glimpse inside the mind of a serial killer? Countless crime procedurals are focused on profilers who give their audiences capsule sized psychology lessons, and there is always a new true crime series attempting to unravel the question: what makes a murderer? The only thing we want to know more than why we do the things we do is why evil and horrible things happen in the world around us. Audiences follow fictional killers who hide behind their masks, watch FBI agents as they uncover the mystery of who killed the homecoming queen, and listen to tapes of real-life monsters as they recount the tales of their crimes. We want nothing more...

Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu doesn’t just resurrect a legend—it guts it, drags it through the dirt, and holds it up for inspection under flickering candlelight like a scientist trying to understand why it still twitches. This isn’t just another vampire flick. It’s an autopsy of power, desire, and the catastrophic consequences of stripping the world of myth. It clings to the bones of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, but yanks out the gothic seduction, leaving something raw, grotesque, and deeply unsettling. At its core is a question that lingers like a bad omen: What happens when you purge the world of fiction, of belief, of the irrational? The answer is ‘Nosferatu’. And he is not merciful.

Willem Dafoe’s character tosses off a line like a casual curse: “We are not so enlightened as we are blinded by the gaseous light of science. I have wrestled with the devil.

It is a testament to his acting ability that it was years before I realized that Gary Oldman is British. With an ability to nail accents, the dedication to drastically change his appearance and the talent to convey the full spectrum of emotions, Oldman is one of the most eclectic and underrated actors of our time.

Born March 21, 1958, in London, Oldman began his acting career on the British stage in 1979, and made his film debut in "Remembrance" in 1982. In 1984, he reluctantly accepted the role of punk rocker Sid Vicious in "Sid and Nancy," a performance which garnered him critical acclaim and launched a diverse and successful career that has spanned almost four decades, and includes everything from small indie films to blockbuster franchises.

Oldman is well-known for his portrayal of some of the most memorable villains in the history of the cinema, from the campy Zorg in "The Fifth Element...

Welcome to IndieWire After Dark, where we pick a new theme for our midnight movie programming every month!

Join us on Friday nights (and special occasions!) to explore some of the strangest fringe films available at any hour in the Streaming Age.

The scariest puppet this side of the “Saw” franchise, Jenny Pen is an early frontrunner in the race for 2025’s favorite new horror icon. She’s the reason for the season and the inspiration behind this month’s IndieWire After Dark lineup — Two Midnight Movies (and a Muppet!) That Influenced “The Rule of Jenny Pen.”

A labor of love from filmmaker James Ashcroft, puppeteer Paul Lewis, and star actor John Lithgow, the titular prop drew on a slew of sources. The movie is based on a story by Owen Marshall, which was optioned by Ashcroft and his co-writer Eli Kent more than a decade ago, and it’s...

Gary Oldman couldn’t contain his laughter when Stephen Colbert showed him clips of his most famous movies enhanced with “that Jackson Lamb quality” — uncontrolled flatulence, a reference to Oldman’s slovenly spy on “Slow Horses.”

The clips included Oldman apparently passing gas as he welcomes Keanu Reeves to his castle in “Bram Stoker’s Dracula,” as he speaks to Daniel Radcliffe in one of the “Harry Potter” movies and more.

Oldman exclaimed, “That’s really a hoot!” when one cleverly edited scene from “Darkest Hour” shows a supporting actor looking askance at Oldman’s Winston Churchill as he apparently lets one rip. “That’s fantastic!” he said.

After the last clip, which now has his villain from “Air Force One” farting as Harrison Ford punches him and says, “Get off my plane,” Oldman was in tears from laughing so hard.

Watch the fart-filled segment in the embedded Instagram post below:...

Four years after winning the Golden Bear for his irreverent satire “Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn,” Romanian auteur Radu Jude returns to the Berlinale with his latest feature, “Kontinental ’25,” which premieres Feb. 19 in the festival’s main competition.

The film follows a bailiff, Orsolya (Eszter Tompa), who’s plunged into a moral crisis after a homeless man she’s trying to evict commits suicide. Struggling with a profound sense of guilt, she looks for ways to ease her troubled conscience, even as she grows increasingly desperate for external reassurance and validation.

Easier said than done. As you might expect from one of world cinema’s leading provocateurs, Orsolya’s round-about search for redemption detours toward Jude’s larger concerns, taking in (but hardly limited to) moral relativism, post-socialist economics, nationalism and the Romanian housing crisis. Where these subjects converge — and how a simple Everywoman like Orsolya responds to...

Some cliche somewhere said that ‘a picture is worth a thousand words.’ This has proven to be the case for me and especially when it comes to fan art.

In this column, I will showcase the kick-ass artwork of some great artists, with the hopes that these artists get the attention they deserve. That’s the aim.

Netflix revealed the first footage from Guillermo del Toro’s passion project, “Frankenstein,” which he wrote, directed and produced. And it is a doozy.

As part of Wednesday’s Next on Netflix event in Los Angeles, the streaming giant previewed a little more than two minutes of footage from the upcoming movie, which will debut this November. The footage opens with Dr. Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac) attempting to reanimate a partial corpse in an operating theater. A bunch of Victorian doctors tut-tut his experiment, which involves a torso and head (it almost looks like a classic automaton).

Christoph Waltz shows up saying that he will give the frazzled young doctor unlimited resources, and we see Frankenstein surveying a battlefield, picking out parts. (There is a particularly grisly moment where we see the doctor slicing through muscle like it’s roast beef.) There are glimpses of the operating table and the creature,...

The Valentine’s Day-set slasher movie Heart Eyes is set to reach theatres on February 7th – but that’s not the only horror movie that Cinemark theatres will be celebrating the holiday with. The cinema chain has revealed that they’ll be running a series called “Love You to Death” from February 1st through the 5th, bringing The Silence of the Lambs, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Midsommar, the 1981 slasher classic My Bloody Valentine, and Shaun of the Dead back to the big screen!

On the Love You to Death page, Cinemark writes, “Got a bleeding heart for horror? Our lineup of frightful flicks is swoon-worthy, with plenty of tortured love—and actual torture—to satisfy the most die-hard fans.“

The Silence of the Lambs will be showing in Cinemark theatres on February 1st. Directed by Jonathan Demme from a screenplay by Ted Tally and based on a novel by Thomas Harris,...

Exclusive: If there’s one takeaway from the holiday box office season, audiences couldn’t quit Focus Features’ period gothic horror movie Nosferatu.

The Robert Eggers-directed title is now the Universal specialty label’s second highest-grossing release at the domestic box office at $84.4 million, overtaking 2005’s three-time Oscar winner Brokeback Mountain ($83M) and ranking behind the studio’s top-grossing title ever, 2019’s Downton Abbey ($96.8M). On a global basis, Nosferatu ranks as Focus’ seventh highest-grossing title with north of $142M worldwide.

Also noteworthy, Nosferatu is reaching its great heights at the B.O. sans award noms from the Golden Globes or Oscars (which have yet to be announced) or festival buzz; such lynchpins were in part responsible for the breakout success of 2005’s Brokeback Mountain, Ang Lee’s gay-themed Western.

Focus also has bragging rights in that Nosferatu beats the domestic haul of any title, including horror, when compared with its specialty rival A24.

Stories mutate over time, adapting to both storytellers and their audience in often unpredictable ways. This is precisely why folks will still flock to creature features about monsters they’ve seen a million times before, as it’s always fun to find out how filmmakers have managed to update the source material. And when it comes to classic monsters that have gone through cinematic makeovers, it’s hard to compete with the good-old vampire.

From foreign sex symbols to zombie-like hordes and even mindless bat-monsters, vampires have proven to be an oddly versatile creature for filmmakers of every disposition. And in honor of Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu remake revamping one of the most iconic depictions of blood-sucking ghouls in cinema history, we’ve decided to come up with a list celebrating six of the scariest vampire designs in horror!

As usual, this list is purely based on personal opinion, but be...

These legendary Dracula movies prove the vampire legend never gets old.

I saw Robert Eggers’ “Nosferatu” over the weekend. Now, as you may know, this isn’t usually my kind of movie. I’m not a hardcore horror fan and I was a little nervous about seeing the film after watching the trailer. But I read Bram Stoker’s “Dracula” about ten years ago and remember loving it. And I had heard good things about this remake, so I rolled the dice and saw the movie. My honest opinion? It’s freaking awesome. The cinematography is brilliant, the character work is impressive, and Bill Skarsgård does an incredible job as Count Orlok (renamed from Count Dracula) – specifically his voice work. I have never heard anything quite like it. So, high off that intense but highly satisfying film, here are my top 7 favorite Dracula movies you can stream right now.

Top...

With Nosferatu a critical, audience, and box office hit, viewers can't seem to get enough of vampire movies as Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 Bram Stoker's Dracula has become a streaming hit on Tubi, hitting number six on the charts. The film stars Gary Oldman as a scenery-chewing Dracula along with Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, and Sir Anthony Hopkins as Van Helsing. It received positive reviews at the time of its release and did well at the global box office, earning nearly $216 million globally on a $40 million budget.

Coppola's adaptation is a gothic and atmospheric take on the original book by Stoker. But don't expect anything in the realm of Universal Studio's classic monster movies as this film was produced and released by TriStar Pictures (Sony). Oldman's initial appearance as Dracula is different, to say the least. He appears as an old man with an interesting hair-do, robe, and long nails.

Keanu Reeves may be one of the most beloved movie stars currently working, beloved more for his real-life personality and well-documented generosity than he is for his range as an actor. Reeves has a talent for playing taciturn action heroes and comic foils but tends to flounder when asked to play richer, more sophisticated characters. Compare his hilarious turn in "Always Be My Maybe," or his impressive physical performances in the "John Wick" movies to, say, "Bram Stoker's Dracula" wherein he struggles to keep his British accent. 

Moreso than his acting, though, Reeves seems to be loved for being a fathomlessly decent human being. He runs his own leukemia charity. When he caught people trespassing on his property, he invited them in for drinks. He famously gives expensive gifts to the crewmates on many of his movies, like Rolex watches for the "John Wick" crew, or motorcycles for the stunt...

Talk about having some bite. “Nosferatu” drove a stake through box office expectations, delivering a hauntingly good $21.1 million over the traditional weekend and $40.3 million since debuting on Christmas Day. Those receipts sent box office analysts everywhere reaching for the vampire puns in an effort to explain the bloody fantastic results for “Nosferatu.”

After all, “Nosferatu” scored one of the year’s top openings from a specialty studio, joining A24’s dystopian cross-country adventure “Civil War” ($25 million), Neon’s thriller “Longlegs” ($22.4 million) and Cineverse’s ultra-gory slasher “Terrifier 3” ($18.9 million). Ticket sales also rank as the biggest Christmas Day launch and weekend haul for a genre film, overtaking the benchmark set in 1998 by Robert Rodriguez’s high school sci-fi story “The Faculty” with $4.4 million on opening day and $11.6 million over the traditional weekend. That there’s a 26-year gap between the previous record-holder is partially because horror isn’t synonymous with the holiday season.

Buckle up goth lovers, Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu has dropped just in time to haunt your holiday season. Flying into theaters on Christmas, the film is set to steal your attention with the tale of obsessive infatuation between a terrifying vampire and a young woman.

But as the iconic silent horror classic prepares to stir your deepest fears with a tale of dark obsession, one question lingers among fans—does this modern nightmare have anything sinister awaiting fans in the post-credits scene? So let’s dive into the mystery and discover if you should sit back as the credits roll and the screen fades to black.

Does Nosferatu have a post-credits scene?

For months, Robert Eggers’ gothic drama Nosferatu has been making headlines surrounding its plot, cast, and the hype created over the sinister tale of obsession. Finally, to put an end to people...

Note: This article contains spoilers for every version of “Nosferatu” and several “Dracula” films.

If Robert Eggers’ “Nosferatu” is your first introduction to the lesser-known vampire tale, you may be surprised how similar it is to Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.”

This vamp (played by Bill Skarsgård) also lives in a castle in remote Eastern Europe and travels to London by boat, with nearly all the same story beats as in the 1897 novel. But F. W. Murnau’s silent movie changed a few details, including character names, to avoid copyright infringement: Count Dracula is now named Count Orlok, Jonathan Harker becomes Thomas Hutter, etc.

Despite these slight alterations, Stoker’s heirs easily spotted the striking resemblance and sued. A court found in favor of the Stoker estate and ordered all copies of the film to be destroyed.

Fortunately for film and horror buffs, several copies were saved and the seminal silent...

In 2024, we have no need to try and make vampires happen. They have already happened for at least a century, and they're very much still happening: stories about vampires have saturated just about every medium there is. Weirdly, though, we may have to work a little harder to make the vampire happen again — as in the most legendary bloodsucker of all: Dracula.

In fairness, it may not be Dracula himself whose popularity is waning, but rather movies about him. Ever since his screen debut in the lost film "Dracula's Death" in 1921, barely a decade has gone by without some iteration of the Count turning up in cinemas, which is partially why the character has undergone so many various iterations. Like all fictional creations who've been built to last, Dracula endures by embracing change. Yet there can always been too much of a good thing; the last several films to prominently...

Exclusive: Stephen King short story Autopsy Room Four, about a man trapped in an autopsy room, is being made into a feature film with British director Ranjeet S. Marwa and veteran Hollywood exec Jon Levin, the former CAA agent turned producer and manager whose exec producer credits include Netflix’s King adaptation In The Tall Grass.

Horror maestro King has given the greenlight for the adaptation, which is to be written and directed by Marwa, who has been prolific in low-budget U.S. and UK genre fare to date. It is currently in development.

Autopsy Room Four delves into the mind of a man who, after a life-threatening accident, wakes up to find himself trapped in an autopsy room. As he confronts his own mortality, the story navigates themes of fear, survival, and the unknown.

The story was first published in King’s limited-edition collection Six Stories in 1997 and appeared...

Paging Dr. Acula: A much-discussed Scrubs reboot is officially in development.

ABC is in the early stages of developing the project from 20th Television (whose predecessors Touchstone TV and ABC Studios produced the original series) and series creator Bill Lawrence. A reboot or revival of Scrubs has been a frequent topic of discussion among Lawrence and the show’s cast: At a 2022 Atx Festival panel, Lawrence said, “We’re gonna do it, you guys know. If you ever have an excuse to work with people you want to spend time with anyway, run to it.”

One sticking point: Lawrence, who was based at Touchstone/ABC Studios during the original show’s run, now has a rich overall deal at Warner Bros. TV. WB has allowed for a carve-out in his deal to work on the Scrubs reboot, although he won’t serve as showrunner should the project get a series order.

Winona Ryder recently suited up in the goth blacks again as she reprised her role as Lydia Deets in the smash hit sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Our Eic, Chris Bumbray, had a blast with the film, saying in his recent review, “In it, Burton is wise enough to play the hits to a certain extent, as it is not all that different from the original. Yet, by doing a movie that’s so deliberately old school, with practical effects, rude humor, and Way more gore than you’d expect from a PG-13 movie, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice almost feels transgressive by how much it plays to the strengths of its director and cast, and discards the trappings of most modern blockbusters.”

The stars of the film are recently making the promotional rounds and Entertainment Weekly reported on Winona Ryder’s recent appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast. During the interview, Ryder brought...

A Keanu Reeves crime thriller has become a streaming success six years later. Reeves is a divisive actor who achieved success after his breakthrough role in the 1989 time travel comedy Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and became a superstar after leading the Wachowskis' 1999 sci-fi blockbuster The Matrix. His performance style has been divisive, as he has earned nine Razzie award nominations, followed by a Razzie Redeemer Award nomination and a spot at No. 4 on the New York Times' list of the greatest actors of the 21st century.

While he is best known for his action roles in titles such as Speed, the Matrix franchise, and the John Wick franchise, Keanu Reeves movies have taken on a huge variety of genres. This includes starring opposite his Speed co-star Sandra Bullock in the time travel romance The Lake House, playing Jonathan Harker in the Francis Ford Coppola horror movie Bram Stoker's Dracula,...

Violence, gore, and thrilling suspense are what most audiences associate with the horror genre, but sometimes, the most unexpected plot lines can be the best. This is the case with the scary movies that tackle romance as well as terror within their narratives, blending the seemingly opposite genres perfectly. It stands to reason that the love stories in horror movies would appeal to viewers, as rooting for the central couple to be together creates an added layer of stakes and tension. However, more often than not, horror movies don't deliver the happily-ever-after that most romance films do.

While plenty of romance movies have creepy and disturbing plots, in many horror romances, the love story is the least unsettling part of the narrative. The external scary elements are used as metaphors and allegories for the real-life obstacles that come between the lovers. More often than not, the relationship at the center...

“Nosferatu” has arrived.

Robert Eggers’ reimagining of the 1922 silent German horror classic “Nosferatu” is being hailed as one of the year’s most terrifying yet visually stunning films. At a special screening Thursday at the Directors Guild of America theater in Los Angeles, Hollywood heavyweights including Chris Pine, Giovanni Ribisi, Casey Affleck and Ruth E. Carter joined an enthusiastic crowd to see Eggers’ haunting vision come to life. Focus Features chairman Peter Kujawski and vice chairman Jason Cassidy also sat through the film to garner the audience’s reactions. Following the screening, Eggers and Academy Award-winning director Guillermo del Toro led a Q&a, diving into Eggers’ fascination with history, his intricate blend of occult theories and folklore, and the captivating performances of stars Lily-Rose Depp and Bill Skarsgård. Watch the video of the conversation above that was shared with Variety exclusively.

A new episode of our What Happened to This Celebrity series just dropped on the JoBlo Originals YouTube channel, and with this one we’re taking a look at the life and career of one of the most beloved actors of his generation: Keanu Reeves. Here’s a guy who has been in the acting world since the 1980s, and just keeps getting more and more popular as the years go by. How is this possible? Well, it helps when you can play a dog-avenging badass like John Wick… and it also helps to have a reputation as being one of the most kind, warmhearted people in Hollywood. To hear all about Keanu Reeves, and to celebrate a very cool dude, check out the video embedded above.

As mentioned in the video, Reeves’ acting skills have been criticized, but he has made some great movies and brought to life some iconic characters.

James Wan is one of the most highly respectable names in the horror genre, and for good reason. The Australian filmmaker has made some of the most memorable horror movies as a writer, director, and producer. Over the years, his spine-chilling narratives have beautifully captured audiences’ attention. The Saw, Insidious, and The Conjuring movie series are some of his famous works. His entire filmography has done business north of $2 billion at the global box office.

Halloween is nearly here, and what better way to celebrate the holiday than with a vampire movie? While the various streaming services are a little light on this particular monster – classics like “Twilight” and “Blade” aren’t currently streaming anywhere – there are still some great vampire films available at your fingertips right now.

These vampire films range from terrifying to sorrowful to funny. There’s a little something for everyone, so take your pick and dive in.

Check out our list of the best vampire movies streaming below.

Francis Ford Coppola’s adaptation of “Dracula” is a gorgeous, haunting film. Gary Oldman stars as the titular vampire, Winona Ryder is Mina and the supporting cast includes Keanu Reeves and Anthony Hopkins. The “Godfather” director employed filmmaking techniques from the silent era to achieve the film’s special effects, resulting...

James Wan has more than earned his inclusion in the pantheon of horror maestros. Over a 20-year career that started in 2004 with "Saw," Wan has mostly stayed true to the genre, making films about monsters human, ghostly and adorably parasitic (who doesn't love that ghastly cutie Gabriel from "Malignant"?). His films are fun, funny, and almost always terrifying in surprising ways (i.e. when he's not making superhero or action movies). Wan works an audience like a showman who's carefully studied the tricks of his predecessors, so when he makes a list of his favorite movies, you'd do well to add those titles to your viewing queue -- especially if you're an aspiring director yourself.

As a horror aficionado, Wan is also worth listening to when he breaks down his favorites by subgenre. Even if he's never knocked out a zombie flick or a werewolf movie, learning his preferences can...

Francis Ford Coppola has been named as AFI’s 50th Life Achievement Award honoree, the institute revealed on Tuesday.

The “Megalopolis” director will receive his award at a gala tribute held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on April 26, 2025.

“Francis Ford Coppola is a peerless artist — one who has created seminal works in the canon of American film, and has also inspired generations of filmmakers who now embody his artistry and his independent spirit,” Kathleen Kennedy, chair of the AFI board of trustees said in a statement. “AFI is honored to present him with the 50th AFI Life Achievement Award.”

In addition to “Megalopolis,” Coppola is also known for being the filmmaker behind “The Godfather,” “The Godfather Part II,” “Apocalypse Now,” “The Outsiders,” “The Godfather Part III” and “Bram Stoker’s Dracula,” to name just a few. He has won five Oscars, six Golden Globes, two Palmes d’Ors out...

Francis Ford Coppola will receive the 50th AFI Life Achievement Award at a gala tribute in Hollywood on April 26, 2025.

Coppola’s latest film Megalopolis starring Adam Driver recently opened in North America through Lionsgate after premiering in Cannes.

The veteran filmmaker’s credits include The Godfather trilogy, Apocalypse Now, American Graffiti, The Conversation, The Outsiders, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and The Rainmaker. Coppola co-founded American Zoetrope with George Lucas.

Robert Eggers, the modern master of gothic horror, is at long last bringing his deep-and-dark passion project to theaters this, uh, Christmas!

The notion of remaking an all-time classic like F.W. Murnau's "Nosferatu" might sound utterly mad, but this kind of risk-taking is what we've come to expect from the man who gave us "The Witch," "The Lighthouse" and "The Northman." Eggers is a conjurer. He can tell a good, tight story, but you go to his movies to be seduced by whatever spell he's casting. And when it comes to "Nosferatu," judging from the spooky trailer it looks like we'll be getting a big ol' dollop of dread.

Authenticity is a key to Eggers approach, which is why he loves to shoot out in the elements as much as possible. With "Nosferatu," he's taking this commitment to tactile cinema further than many filmmakers have gone before -- specifically,...

Keanu Reeves has been an absolute favorite of many film critics and audiences. His career has been very interesting since this actor has been open to starring in almost any genre. However, he has been mostly known for his action-driven films. For example, a lot of action movie lovers recognize him for the Matrix films and John Wick series. What they don’t know is how he has struggled in his personal life as well as experimented with other genres.

Reeves was born on September 2nd, 1964, in Beirut, Lebanon. He was raised in Toronto, Canada. He is of Chinese-Hawaiian descent from his father’s side. His father was a geologist. Reeves had a mother that worked in the industry as a performer and later designed costumes. His parents divorced nonetheless. He ended up residing with his mother and sister. As he got older, he developed a keen interest in acting.

Stephen King's It miniseries was one of the great horror releases of the 90s, and still terrifies audiences more than 30 years after release. Featured within In Search of Darkness 1990-1994, we have an exclusive clip with director Tommy Lee Wallace, who talks about the world's fear of clowns, and bringing Pennywise to life with Tim Curry!

Ghosts are ubiquitous and zombies have had their moments of dominance, but of all the classic horror monsters, vampires have the strongest claim for the greatest film legacy. The vampire genre is nearly as old as cinema itself, with F.W. Murnau’s “Nosferatu” scaring up audiences in 1922, followed by the countless iterations that came in its shadow. Every era and every filmmaking country has since taken up its own spins on the myth of the vampire, from Universal Studios’ “Dracula” series beginning with Tod Browning’s Bram Stoker adaptation in 1931, all the way up to Iranian-American director Ana Lily Amirpour’s indie feminist twist “A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night” in 2014.

2024 has not exactly been a banner time for brilliant takes on the horror genre’s most iconic creatures of the night, with the most notable bloodsucking project to come out this calendar year being the fun but ultra-silly “Abigail.

For over fifty years, Francis Ford Coppola has been a towering, and often controversial, figure in American Cinema. His filmography is one of the most legendary of all time and includes some of the greatest movies ever made like The Godfather (1972) and The Godfather Part II (1974), The Conversation (1974), Apocalypse Now (1979), and more. It also includes wild swings—One from the Heart (1982), Rumble Fish (1983), Peggy Sue Got Married (1986), Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992)—which sometimes paid off, but sometimes did not. This year, his forty-year-in-the-making passion project Megalopolis finally hit screens for the general public after a festival run that provoked a mixed critical response to say the least. It is a gigantic movie made on a huge budget with vast, and sometimes impenetrable, ideas. His very first film, however, was a much more modest project, made on a minuscule budget, and…it was a horror movie.

Dementia 13 (1963) is very much a...

Please note: there are minor Spoilers in this article.

The Legend of Vox Machina season 3 continues with the one-liners, relationship woes, and tons of action. I have to say this series gets better with each episode.

Vox Machina is based on the first Dungeons & Dragons adventure taken by the cast members of Critical Role, but references to characters from their second and third adventures (The Mighty Nein and Bells Hells) show up. I noticed a bard singing about Ruby of the Sea, who is in The Mighty Nein. Incidentally, The Mighty Nein is also getting turned into an animated series, so perhaps Vox Machina is laying the groundwork.

And with that, let's look at the latest three episodes of The Legend of Vox Machina to drop on Amazon Prime Video.

Episode 304: “Hell to Pay”

The Everlight speaks with Keyleth and forbids her enter the Hells. Doing so would...

This article contains mild spoilers for "Megalopolis" and "Joker: Folie à Deux."

The film industry has just experienced what seems to me an unprecedented two week span of outrageous misfortune. If we trust the high end of their estimated budgets, Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis" and Todd Phillips' "Joker: Folie à Deux" combined to gross a mere $44 million on exorbitant budgets totaling $344 million.

On the surface, "Megalopolis" would appear to be the bigger disaster; now in its second weekend, the $136 million production has amassed only a paltry $6 million. Granted, Coppola sold his Sonoma Country wineries and borrowed against his new ownership stake in the company that absorbed them to personally finance his physically and intellectually ambitious epic. It's not my money, so I don't care to discuss the wisdom of Coppola's investment; what matters to me is that a massive, star-studded film made without the support of a firmly established...

Ruth Bradley has found success playing the character of Emma Flyte on the Apple TV+ spy drama “Slow Horses.” The Irish actress earned the role after a blind audition where she was impressed by the high-quality writing. Bradley has since completed filming for the show’s fifth season and will begin work on the sixth.

Bradley remembered being drawn to acting from a young age after seeing Gary Oldman in “Bram Stoker’s Dracula.” She was fascinated by how actors could completely change their appearance. Years later, Bradley feels lucky to act alongside Oldman on “Slow Horses.” She said Oldman is very kind and likes tea with biscuits, showing his down-to-earth personality on set.

In the past, Bradley’s roles often required her to transform her appearance through different hairstyles and costumes. However, her character Emma Flyte does not look very different from Bradley. This marks a change from Bradley’s...

Exclusive: There was a top-secret code name on the sides Ruth Bradley was sent to prepare for an audition. “I didn’t know who the characters were, I didn’t know what the show was, but I was like, this dialogue is some of the best dialogue I’ve ever read.”

Bradley immediately emailed her agent: “Who wrote this stuff? It’s amazing.”

Smiling, Bradley recounts: ”They said, ‘Well, actually, it’s Slow Horses.”

That was Bradley’s prelude into the world of Slow Horses and Jackson Lamb, the Falstaffian slob who came in from the cold to oversee intelligence service agents exiled to serve out of harm’s way — they think — in a dilapidated dwelling known as Slough House.

Bradley, at that point, had vaguely heard of Mick Herron’s series of award-winning thrillers upon which the show is based, but she hadn’t then seen any of the...
