The Og. The classic. The icon. John Carpenter’s “Halloween” was a small-budget indie that spawned a franchise as slow-moving serial killer Michael Myers tormented the sleepy town of Haddonfield, Illinois on Halloween night. Jamie Lee Curtis achieved “scream queen” status with her turn...

From Scream to Scooby-Doo to Five Nights at Freddy’s, Matthew Lillard has had a stronghold on burgeoning horror fans for generations. The actor has combined his love for genre storytelling and his appreciation for potent potables with Macabre Spirits.

The horror-themed tequila line is the latest from Find Familiar Spirits, Lillard’s fandom-centric alcohol brand that was founded in 2022. It launched with the Dungeons & Dragons-inspired Quest’s End Whiskey, which itself spawned from Lillards D&d company, Beadle & Grimm’s Pandemonium Warehouse.

Lillard explains, “I have a company called Beadle & Grimm’s with four of my best friends from the acting school I went to for college. We’ve been playing Dungeons & Dragons since we were 21, and we started this company that delivers high-end D&d products right to your door.”

Another friend of Lillard’s, Bloodsucking Bastards screenwriter Justin Ware, recognized how Beadle & Grimm’s customer...

This article contains spoilers for "Terrifier 3."

Damian Leone's "Terrifier" movies may be the most improbable slasher franchise of all time. On the surface, a string of films based around the homicidal hijinks of Art the Clown, a slovenly man in a baggy clown suit, sounds like par for the viscera-shredding course, but Leone and his merry ban of fiends have imbued their now three-film saga with a pure love for splatter f/x and a deepening narrative lore that's daringly unrushed. Think two-hours-plus is too long for a slasher film? The growing legion of "Terrifier" devotees declare otherwise.

The magic, so to speak, of the "Terrifier" movies is their ability to hit Jörg Buttgereit levels of gore without provoking mass walkouts. Obviously, the sight of Art (David Howard Thornton) carving up a victim while his female sidekick (and one-time victim) Vicky pleasures herself to spewing completion is going to get some folks tapping out,...

Fans of the Karate Kid franchise have long been waiting to see Hilary Swank pop up for a cameo (or more) on the Cobra Kai TV series – and while that show is nearing the end of its six season run and running out of opportunities to have Swank appear (she has said that she’s not going to), another show has officially locked her in for a recurring role. The Hollywood Reporter has broken the news that Swank has joined the cast of Yellowjackets season 3!

Details on Swank’s character are being kept under wraps, but The Hollywood Reporter was told that “she’ll make her first appearance in the latter stages of the season.”

While fans of the Showtime series (read our review of season 2 Here) patiently wait to see the bonus episode that’s going to air sometime between the second and third seasons, the third season of...

Like Spirit Halloween seizing a once-beloved store, Silver Scream Con moved into the old stomping grounds of Rock and Shock — New England’s premier horror convention, which came to an end in 2019 — at the Dcu Center in Worcester, Ma for its three-quel on September 13-15.

It was a full circle moment for Silver Scream mastermind and Ice Nine Kills frontman Spencer Charnas, whose experiences attending Rock and Shock inspired him to start his own convention. Having quickly outgrown its previous venue, the Doubletree hotel in Danvers, Silver Scream Con III’s new setting was able to accommodate even more horror fans for three days of horror, music, gore, and more.

The guest list included: Scream‘s David Arquette, Jamie Kennedy, and Lee Waddell; Cabin Fever‘s Eli Roth, Cerina Vincent, and Jordan Ladd; Terrifier‘s Damien Leone, David Howard Thornton, Lauren Lavera, Elliott Fullam, and Amelie McLain; Halloween‘s Nick Castle,...

Twenty-seven years after Kelly Rowland joined Destiny’s Child in Houston, Texas, the singer returned to Space City to celebrate the grand opening of the region’s newest water resort. With two kids in tow, the 43-year-old looked absolutely radiant as she laughed and played with her family.

After $200 million and three years of construction, Great Wolf Lodge celebrated its opening in the Houston area on August 7. The indoor water park resort is the Chicago-based company’s 22nd location in the U.S. and second in Texas. Locals are happy with the addition, as Great Wolf Lodge has created nearly 700 jobs for Texans. Naturally, the grand opening required a little star power.

Beloved classic games are being brought to a new form, and audiences are loving it. Nintendo’s Super Mario Bros got fans super hyped, and the film itself was incredibly fun. It’s always exciting seeing the media we know and love to gain new content, and having video games become movies adds another lens to the story. It gives the characters more of a personality and allows for development within and between characters. Instead of Mario going on an adventure to save Princess Peach from Bowser, we get to see Mario (Chris Pratt) struggle with obstacle courses and work alongside Princess Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy) to rescue Luigi (Charlie Day) from Bowser (Jack Black).

Nicolas Cage is a performer who routinely defies logic and expectations. A true national treasure of cinema (no pun intended), Cage has never been afraid to cross genre lines and take big swings with the characters he embodies. Such is the case in the new film Longlegs by Osgood Perkins. In the movie, Cage plays the titular Longlegs, an elusive and terrifying serial killer. While previously able to stay off the FBI’s radar, everything changes when a young recruit named Lee Harker (Maika Monroe) gets assigned to the case.

Bloody Disgusting’s own Meagan Navarro wrote in her Longlegs review that Cage delivers his “most unsettling performance yet.” With a career as prolific and varied as Cage’s, that statement should not be taken lightly. Ahead of the film’s release in theaters everywhere on July 12th, let’s take a look at some of Cage’s other unsettling,...

Lionsgate is set to give the thriller Clear Cut, which stars Clive Standen of the Taken TV series, Tom Welling (Smallville), Stephen Dorff (Blade), and Alec Baldwin (Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation), a theatrical, digital, and VOD release on July 19th – and with that date just a few weeks away, a trailer for the film has arrived online. You can check it out in the embed above.

Brian Skiba directed Clear Cut (formerly known as Cold Deck) from a screenplay by Joe Perruccio, who earns his first feature writing credit on this film. The Hollywood Reporter let us know that the story centers on Jack (Standen), who tries to leave his past behind him when he starts a logging job but finds that a team of criminals with a score to settle are out to kill him.

A Nightmare on Elm Street is one of those franchises that, despite its roller-coaster of quality across the series- is just too damn iconic to fall out of the favor of us horror fans. Wes Craven’s imagination birthed one of the most recognizable villains in horror history And spawned a franchise that would include 8 movies and one crossover film pitting Freddy against Jason. From 1984 and all the way up until today- audiences remain invested in the potential for such a unique and powerful monster. And we still are holding out hope for a new silver screen outing soon. So, whether you’re re-watching the original film for the millionth time- or you’re slogging your way through the 2010 remake for… some reason- the fact remains that Freddy and his status as a slasher icon will never truly die. Unless… Chapter six in the Freddy saga- Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare...

Jason Blum dropped his slate for 2025 on his X (formerly Twitter) recently. And it seems that the director and his production company are ready to face DC and Marvel head-on. Looks like the horror giants are gearing up for the year ahead of them.

Blumhouse Productions seems to be gearing up for a massive 2025, as revealed by Blum’s tweet. The production house is working on multiple properties related to Megan, The Black Phone, Fnaf, and Insidious, all of which have an impressive box-office presence, that might put a dent in the earning of DC and Marvel.

Chandu Champion Star Kartik Aaryan On Box Office(Photo Credit –YouTube)

Kartik Aaryan had his first release of 2024 with Chandu Champion. Directed by Kabir Khan, the film is a sports biopic based on the life of India’s first Paralympic Gold medalist, Murlikant Petkar. It also stars Vijay Raaz, Sonali Kulkarni, Bhuvan Arora, Yashpal Sharma, Rajpal Yadav, Shreyas Talpade, and Aniruddh Dave.

Chandu Champion was released in theatres on June 14, 2024. The film received mostly positive reviews from film critics. Even the fans are in awe of Kartik’s solid performance as Murlikant Petkar. However, the film is earning less than expected at the box office. As per the latest update, Kartik Aaryan’s film has earned approximately 24.11 crores at the box office so far. In an interview, the actor was asked if the numbers affect him.

Universal Pictures keeps on pumping out Jurassic Park and Jurassic World movies and cartoons – in fact, another Jurassic World movie will be reaching theatres in 2025, and there are two seasons of the animated series Jurassic World: Chaos Theory dropping onto the Netflix streaming service this year. But while that’s all cool to have, one dinosaur series I wish had more installments is the Carnosaur franchise, which was produced by the late, great Roger Corman. The first Carnosaur (which was inspired by a novel written by Harry Adam Knight) was released in 1993 as a mockbuster alternative to Jurassic Park, and was followed by Carnosaur 2 in 1995 and Carnosaur 3: Primal Species in 1996. Sadly, while there were two spin-offs of sorts with Raptor in 2001 and The Eden Formula in 2006, we haven’t gotten an actual Carnosaur movie in almost thirty years, and no sort-of spin-offs in almost twenty years. While I...

Alaya F, who recently gained attention for her role in the hit film Srikanth, shared a humorous yet painful moment from her fitness training on Instagram Stories. In the video, Alaya attempts to balance on a gym ball but loses her balance and takes a tumble. Thankfully, she avoided any serious injury, though she admitted the fall was quite painful.

Accompanying the video, Alaya wrote: “My most painful fail yet. (This is why it’s important to Not try this at home without trained supervision and crash mats). Watch this with sound on (sic).” The clip garnered reactions from her followers, including a clapping emoji from Priyanka and an amazed comment from Saiyami Kher saying, “Woah”.

Alaya F made her acting debut in Jawaani Jaaneman alongside Saif Ali Khan and has since appeared in movies like Freddy, Always Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat, U-Turn, and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. She is...

Chandu Champion Star Kartik Aaryan Looks Back On His Bollywood Journey ( Photo Credit – YouTube )

Kartik Aaryan is one of those actors of the present generation who has faced quite a few commercial successes in Bollywood despite being an outsider. The actor is currently gearing up for his upcoming movie Chandu Champion and looked back on his journey in the industry during the film’s trailer launch. Scroll below for more.

Kartik’s upcoming movie is heavily inspired by the life of India’s first Paralympic gold medalist, Murlikant Petkar, and the actor went through a significant transformation to fit into this role. Kartin established himself in rom-coms and comedy horror with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. He also took up serious roles in Dhamaka and Freddy. He is widening his spectrum further with this sports drama.

On Saturday, Kartik Aaryan, Kabir Khan, and Sajid Nadiadwala unveiled the trailer for the Chandu Champion in Gwalior.

The Hills Have Eyes 2. No, not that one. That’s The Hills Have Eyes Part 2 and has one of the greatest things ever filmed where a dog, an actual dog, has a flashback and its just, muah, chef’s kiss. While I actually think that original 1985 sequel is way too much fun for its own good – it was written and directed by Craven, brings back Michael Berryman, has Harry Manfredini give us the score, and oh yeah, has a dog flashback. A Dog, Flashback – I’m not here to talk about that one that is probably so bad it’s good. I’m here to discuss the true black sheep of this inbred mountain family and give you all a look at the movie that is not a remake of the sequel but rather a sequel to the remake. The Hills Have Eyes 2 (watch it Here) is a...

It may have taken forever for the first Five Nights at Freddy’s movie to finally get off the ground, but it’s officially full steam ahead for the sequel.

Expect to see Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 next Halloween season, as it’s currently set for Fall 2025 release.

The announcement came via CinemaCon and social media, and arrives shortly after producer Jason Blum teased a behind the scenes photo from inside Jim Henson’s Creature Shop. The sequel hadn’t been confirmed at the time of his posting, but this news makes it official.

Released in theaters and available for streaming on Peacock on the same day, the Emma Tammi-directed Five Night’s at Freddy’s was Blumhouse’s highest grossing movie of all time. In other words, it’s no surprise that the sequel was quickly greenlit.

In last year’s horror movie, “After accepting a security guard job from Steve,...

Following the global success of Five Nights at Freddy’s last fall, Universal and Blumhouse are headed back to the pizzeria.

A sequel, Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, is in the works for release in fall 2025, Universal President of Domestic Theatrical Distribution Jim Orr said during the studio’s CinemaCon presentation Wednesday afternoon in Las Vegas.

The first film based on the wildly popular video game launched domestically day-and-date in cinemas and on Peacock on October 27. It went theatrical-only overseas and grossed over $291 million worldwide. The movie was also the most watched title ever in a weekend on Peacock, an anomaly given Freddy’s fans’ yearning to see the pic on the big screen. That doesn’t happen often with theatrical day-and-date streaming movies.

No word if part two here is also day-and-date on Peacock.

Is it time for six nights at Freddy’s? A sequel to horror hit Five Nights at Freddy‘s is in the works, Universal revealed at CinemaCon Wednesday.

The first film was a surprise sensation that weathered poor reviews and a day-and-date release on Peacock to land Blumhouse’s top opening of all time with $78 million. The feature from director Emma Tammi was based on the video game and counted creator Scott Cawthon as its screenwriter. It centered on a security guard played by Josh Hutcherson, who took a job at a pizzeria with murderous animatronic animals.

Tammi previously told The Hollywood Reporter of a potential sequel: “We have some loose ends that I think are going to have to come back in a sequel to be tied up.”

The Five Nights sequel comes as both video game movies and TV shows are having a moment, with titles such as The Super Mario Bros. Movie...

The makers of the upcoming Aayush Sharma-starrer action-thriller film ‘Ruslaan’ have joined forces with the Nh Studioz for the film’s worldwide release.

Aayush spoke about the partnership and said how much the distribution strategy is instrumental in the filmmaking journey.

Nh Studioz is known for its stellar track record, and has been associated with some of the most celebrated films like ’Pink,’ ‘Shivaay,’ ‘October,’ ‘Tubelight,’ and ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’.

Aayush Sharma said: “Finding the right collaborators is crucial in the filmmaking journey, and partnering with Nh Studioz is important to us. We have a shared vision for Ruslaan. Their track record of delivering impactful cinema resonates deeply with me, and I am thrilled to have them on board. Together, we aim to bring Ruslaan to audiences worldwide, ensuring that our film reaches every corner of the globe.”

Apart from being part of the distribution business, Nh Studioz...

Many people would claim that Frank Darabont has made the best Stephen King adaptations ever put on film, but did you know that over a decade before making The Shawshank Redemption, it would be Stephen King himself who helped Frank Darabont become a filmmaker? Frank would use one of Stephen King’s infamous “Dollar Babies” where King would allow aspiring filmmakers to license one of his short stories for just $1. Darabont would adapt King’s short The Woman in the Room which would be short-listed for an Academy Award for Best Live Action Short film in 1983. Despite not getting the nomination, and not even particularly liking the short, King was a fan and for $5,000, granted Darabont the rights to adapt another of his short stories: Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption.

Of course, Darabont wasn’t quite ready to tackle something as massive as that story just yet, so he made...

Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey burst onto the scene last year and while it was critically panned, it ended up making a lot of money in the Box Office, warranting a sequel that will be released soon.

Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey

Interestingly enough, there are now more movies that have been planned in what is now called the Twisted Child Universe, leading to Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble.

All Six Movies In the Twisted Childhood Universe A pivotal moment in Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey

According to Bloody Disgusting, Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is set to hit theaters on March 26th, 27th, and 28th through Fathom Events, marking the sequel to last year’s viral sensation that amassed nearly $5 million at the box office. With ITN Studios & Jagged Edge Productions fully invested in their Twisted Childhood Universe, the next step involves an ambitious Avengers-style crossover.

The timeline...

Ah, the 1990s. Perhaps the peak of the moviegoing experience. Theaters consistently showed classics such as the special effects marvel "Jurassic Park," "The Shawshank Redemption," "Terminator 2: Judgment Day," "Pulp Fiction," "Fargo," and "Titanic." The decade also featured an abundance of outstanding horror films like "The Sixth Sense," "Scream," "Misery," and "Interview with the Vampire," all boasting big-name stars and top-tier directors.

However, playing at the opposite end of the cineplex were thrillers you may have never heard about or skipped simply due to bad reviews or scathing word of mouth. Some of Hollywood's top talent attached themselves to such projects, thwarted by ornery critics or moviegoers seeking higher-end entertainment. That's a shame.

While there are undoubtedly plenty of terrible horror films from the 90s, the decade was also ripe with lower-tier entries that have aged surprisingly well. Many don't reset the bar established by esteemed pictures like "The Silence of the Lambs,...

While fans of the Showtime series Yellowjackets (read our review of season 2 Here) patiently wait to see the bonus episode that’s going to air sometime between the second and third seasons, showrunners Ashley Lyle, Bart Nickerson, and Jonathan Lisco have let it be known that season 3 – which was, of course, greatly delayed by the strikes that hit the entertainment industry last year – is finally going to start filming in May, aiming for an early 2025 premiere!

Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis star in Yellowjackets, which is is described as “equal parts survival epic, horror story, and coming-of-age drama.” The story centers on a team of wildly talented high school girls soccer players who become the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness. The series will chronicle their descent from a complicated but thriving team to warring, cannibalistic clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve...

My confession: I was a late bloomer to loving horror movies. Well, ok, I've been drawn to art and stories that scare me since I can remember, but it was only in high school that my curiosity started to overpower my fear (that and I discovered ways to access movies without my parents). Even so, it took me until October 2017, my first spooky season in college, to finally watch the classic "A Nightmare on Elm Street."

Why did I take so long? I'd heard of the movie before and I knew who Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund) was. I'd seen "The Simpsons" parody in "Treehouse of Horror VI" ("Nightmare on Evergreen Terrace") and understood what it was referencing. I even knew the lyrics of the ghostly killer's theme song. Shouldn't "Nightmare" have been a priority for me?

Yet, as a budding cinephile in the early 2000s, I spent as much time...

Josh Hutcherson is enjoying a rare day out with his longtime girlfriend.

The 31-year-old Five Nights at Freddy’s actor held hands with Claudia Traisac as they headed to All Time Restaurant for a low-key lunch date on Saturday afternoon (December 30) in Los Feliz, Calif.

For the outing, Josh wore a long-sleeved white shirt with black pants while Claudia, also 31, wore an all-black outfit.

If you didn’t know, Josh and Claudia first met in 2013 while filming Escobar: Paradise Lost and have been together for almost a decade now.

Did you know Josh competed against four other actors before landing the role of Peeta in The Hunger Games movies?

Hello? Hello, hello? Just calling to inform you that the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie, the video game adaptation hailing from Universal and horror film powerhouse Blumhouse, has become a surprise box office smash raking in a worldwide total gross of approximately $217.1 million against a budget of ~$25 million. Much like 2022’s Halloween Ends, the film got a hybrid rollout in theaters and is now streaming on Peacock.

While fans of the Showtime series Yellowjackets (read our review of season 2 Here) patiently wait to see the bonus episode that’s going to air sometime between the second and third seasons, showrunners Ashley Lyle, Bart Nickerson, and Jonathan Lisco have confirmed that they and the writers that populate the show’s writing room are deep into the writing process on Yellowjackets season 3.

The show’s writers had already assembled to work on the next batch of episodes when the Writers Guild strike hit at the start of May – and that strike kept the development of season 3 on hold through the end of September. During a Q&a for SAG-AFTRA nomination committee members last night, Lyle said (as reported by Variety), “We’re deep in the writing. (Once the writers strike ended) everybody came back so incredibly enthusiastic, raring to go and creatively invigorated. We’re having so much fun...

Emma Tammi's new horror film "Five Nights at Freddy's," based on the popular line of video games, is one of the more impressive success stories of the year. The film is about a somnambulistic night watchman named Mike (Josh Hutcherson) who takes a gig watching a disused children's pizzeria, closed since the late 1980s. The pizzeria, called Freddy Fazbear's, is outfitted with an animatronic band of anthropomorphic animals like one might have seen as Showbiz Pizza back in the day. Perhaps predictably, the animatronic animals spring to life at night and slay any ne'er-do-wells in the pizzeria. The film, rated PG-13, doesn't lean into gore and mayhem, sadly, but it does contain numerous references to the original games as well as several cameos from popular YouTubers whose online commentary made the "FNaF" games popular back in mid-'10s. 

Scott Cawthon famously invented the original "Five Nights at Freddy's" game...

Actor Douglas Tait has played a handful of horror movie monsters over the years, from Jason Voorhees in Freddy vs. Jason to the werewolf in Annabelle Comes Home, and up next he’s stepping behind the camera to make his directorial debut.

You can check out the official trailer and poster art below.

Angel Baby comes to theaters and Digital on December 15, 2023.

Isabel Cueva (Aztec Warrior), Chris Browning (Agnes) and Rebecca De Mornay (The Hand That Rocks The Cradle) are on board to lead the cast, alongside Dan Thiel (Ratched), Whitney Anderson (The Code), Daniel Roebuck (31) and Victor Isaac.

"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" has an incredible cast of characters that fill out the world around the central group, "the gang," and few are as funny or tragic as Matthew "Rickety Cricket" Mara, played by the fabulous David Hornsby. Hornsby is also a writer and co-producer, bringing his slightly twisted sense of humor to the series in more ways than one, but it's hard to deny his impact as Cricket. The first time fans met Cricket, he was a handsome young priest who had intense unrequited feelings for Dee (Kaitlin Olson). He went to high school with the gang, which is where he earned the nickname "Rickety Cricket" because of his leg braces, and they only continue to make his life worse as the years go on. After Dee convinced him to leave the church and told him that her love for him was only because he was a priest and unattainable,...

Following its massive success at the box office (grossing more than $270 million globally thus far according to Box Office Mojo), Blumhouse's Five Nights at Freddy's (directed by Emma Tammi and based on Scott Cawthon's popular video game franchise of the same name) is coming to Digital on November 28th, followed by a December 12th release on 4K Uhd, Blu-ray, and DVD, and we have a look at the full list of bonus features:

Press Release: Universal City, California, November 21, 2023 – Shattering all-time records at the box-office, Blumhouse’s Five Nights At Freddy’S, the haunting new horror film based on the video game series created by Scott Cawthon, will be available with never-before-seen bonus content on Digital November 28, 2023, and 4K Uhd, Blu-rayTM and DVD on December 12, 2023, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Five Nights At Freddy’S killed its theatrical debut breaking various box office records for the genre and Blumhouse.

Pop quiz hot shot: What’s the best franchise movie crossover of all time? Alien vs. Predator? Freddy vs. Jason? Maybe Godzilla vs. Kong? Whatever your answer is, how do you think that movie would stack up against a potential Men in Black and 21 Jump Street crossover? Do you think fusing a deadpan comedic Sci-Fi story with the irreverent over-the-top humor of a buddy cop movie would actually work well together and become an all-time great movie mash-up? We’re about to find out when we peel the lid back and discover once and for all…Wtf Happened to this unmade Men in Black/21 Jump Street crossover movie?!?

Now, y’all remember that infamous Sony email hack that went down in November of 2014? Well, among the many pieces of news revealed during the data breach was Sony Pictures’ plans to potentially turn 23 Jump Street into a Men in Black franchise crossover event.

The most remarkable thing about Professor Paul Matthews is how unremarkable he is. The latest addition to Nicolas Cage’s oeuvre of oddballs and nuts is, in fact, impressively forgettable. So what makes him so curiously haunting after you’ve seen Dream Scenario? Cage himself is obviously a major factor. With a frequently perspiring bald cap around the temples, hunched shoulders, and a twitchy gaze that betrays the desperation of a lonely child in a middle-aged body, the veteran thespian has built a darkly amusing portrait of neediness which walks right up to the fine border between character and caricature, and gives it a frantic, pleading wave.

It’s a brilliant creation, and it is implemented in one of the cruelest comedies of the last couple of years. Because in spite of Paul Matthews’ lack of distinction, he is the man of your dreams…...

Gerry dusted off some old-school slang this week on The Golden Bachelor as he considered “knocking boots” with his two remaining ladies in the fantasy suites. Did anyone’s boots actually get to knocking, though? And has Gerry made his final choice already?

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Frasier Episode 7, “Freddy’s Birthday.”] All Freddy (Jack Cutmore-Scott) wants to do is enjoy his birthday, which of course means not having his parents in the same room. Unfortunately, what happens is both Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) and Lilith (Bebe Neuwirth) attend his party. Chaos, of course, ensues. “What an honor” to bring that relationship back onscreen, Frasier executive producer Chris Harris tells TV Insider. “I was a teenager watching these two on TV, and so most of the time, we were just pinching ourselves and amazed we get to continue their story.” It all begins when Frasier sees Freddy at the bar and incorrectly thinks he’s on a date, until he sees Lilith at the table. They worked backwards from that moment, executive producer Joe Cristalli shares. Frasier “just falling backwards gasping was such a funny moment that we broke that we kind of worked from there, but it also made...

With a title like Freddy’s Fridays, it’s obvious this was meant to cash in on the release of Five Nights at Freddy’s. And with the length of time that film took to actually get made both of the other knockoffs, The Banana Splits Movie and Willy’s Wonderland ended up preceding it to release, so Freddy’s Fridays has the mockbuster slot all to itself.

Todd is bringing an escort named Anastasia home. She doesn’t seem overly concerned when he brings her not to his apartment but to a basement full of candles, chains, and a book with an eye in the middle of the cover. She even reads from it, which is a big mistake. Four figures appear and hack her to pieces as Todd watches.

Matthew Lillard is in his Renaissance era.

His latest film, Five Nights at Freddy’s, is smashing box office and streaming records, he has a new improv show premiering on Amazon’s Freevee next week, his Quest’s End whiskey sold out its first drop, and he runs a luxury gaming company, Beadle & Grimm’s, with four of his close friends.

“This is a really lovely little comeback moment for me,” Lillard tells The Hollywood Reporter, before reconsidering that sentiment. “I sort of want to quote LL [Cool J], ‘Don’t call it a comeback, I’ve been here for years.'”

Lillard is no stranger to a successful franchise, of course, having starred in Scream and Scooby-Doo — but the overwhelming success of the film adaptation of a popular video game about a haunted restaurant called Freddy Fazbear’s isn’t lost on him.

Freddy’s scared up an astounding $80 million at the...

Something has happened over the past few years: the once mighty Marvel Cinematic Universe has seen a stumble in both its box office dollars and its quality of films. It seems like anything post Avengers: Endgame has failed to kickstart a true second coming of the brand. Spider-Man: No Way Home played on the nostalgia kick of combining three Spider-man universes into one and came at a time when audiences really yearned for something familiar, propelling it to a solid $1.9 Billion worldwide, but that is the exception. Most people agree that Marvel just hasn’t hit the same highs it used to creatively.

This weekend sees the MCU bring its latest film to the big screen with the sort of sequel to Captain Marvel and sort of big screen version of the Disney+ show Ms. Marvel. If early reactions to the film are any indication, this is not the one...

What made the original "Frasier" series so good? It's a question we at /Film have been feverishly searching for answers to in light of Paramount+'s release of the "Frasier" revival, which is quite mixed, if it's the original series you're holding it to as a standard. There aren't as many jokes per minute, the understanding of its central character isn't always perfect, and they're only just figuring out which elements from the original series were okay to discard, and which needed to be in the mix for the cake to come out tasty. 

One of the shakier aspects of this calculus has been the revival's handling of its character dynamics. This is a fully defensible area of weakness -- character dynamics are both the hardest aspect of sitcoms to iron out and the singular aspect that makes them soar or sink. Opinions vary, but if you ask for mine,...

October was another winner over 2022, thanks mostly to “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” (AMC) and early stellar results for “Five Nights at Freddy’s” (Universal). That makes 10 of 11 months that improved compared to last year, with May only slightly down.

That could continue in November, but it might be close. The weight is on three franchise titles: “The Marvels” (Disney) on November 10, “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” (Lionsgate) and “Trolls Band Together” (Universal), both November 17. Those three, plus “Wish” (Disney) on November 22, have the best chances of surpassing $100 million in domestic gross, with “The Marvels” and “Hunger Games” the most likely during the month.

October’s improvement over last year will be around 20 percent. That’s off from the 26 percent improvement year to date, but still better than comparable Novembers.

Before the late announcement of “The Eras Tour,” a better October seemed absurd. The month appeared barren...

No matter how you slice it, Five Nights at Freddy’s is a killer.

Having slayed at the box office with a global haul of $132.7 million, the video game adaptation/horror film — which opted for a day-and-date, Oct. 27 release on streaming — also emerged as Peacock’s most-watched film or series ever in its first five days, besting previous record-holders Halloween Ends, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Bel-Air and The Best Man: The Final Chapters. (Note: Peacock released no hard data.)

We’ve always known what creeps us out. From clowns to small tight spaces, we as an audience have been subjected to enough now that we know what people and places to stay away from. Some of those have included fun houses, and others include creepy animatronic kid’s entertainment. With movies like The Funhouse (1981) and Magic (1978) reminding of this, Five Nights at Freddy’s should be just as creepy and just as unnerving, unfortunately however, it is not. Five Nights at Freddy’s is neither creepy nor entertaining, even though there is a stellar performance from Josh Hutcherson.

Five Nights of Freddy’s was first released as a 2014 point-and-click survival horror game. Players took control of a night watchman,...

Monday Am: Not a shock here, but Universal/Blumhouse’s Five Nights at Freddy’s is coming in at $80M over 3-days after a $16M Sunday that was -34% from Saturday’s $24.2M. The fans of this movie were always dead set on seeing it in a cinema, which made it an experiment for Uni by going day-and-date on Peacock so that they could spike paid subs beyond 28M. While the Emma Tammi directed movie is destined to be No. 1 again during the first weekend of November sans Dune: Part Two, all eyes on how much it drops. Many observed that Taylor Swift: Eras Tour was frontloaded, and she posted a -65% decline in weekend 2. That’s about what we’ll see here. At $80M, it’s still the fifth best opening of October behind Joker ($96.2M), Taylor Swift: Eras Tour ($92.8M), Venom: Let There Be Carnage ($90M) and Venom ($80.2M...

The global cinema landscape experienced an unexpected tremor as Universal and Blumhouse’s ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’ made its mark. With a staggering $78 million debut domestically over Halloween weekend, it not only exceeded projections but also set significant records. On its opening day, the horror sensation impressively surpassed even this year’s massive blockbuster, ‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie.’ However, while it clinched day one, it couldn’t maintain that lead throughout the weekend, ultimately trailing behind Mario’s colossal $146.3 million weekend haul.

But Freddy’s performance is no small feat, especially when considering it premiered in tandem on Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streaming platform. This strategy earned it the second-best opening weekend accolade for a day-and-date streaming release, with only Disney’s 2021 ‘Black Widow’ (a robust $80 million in theaters) outdoing it.

A new film sits atop the box-office weekend as the Halloween-themed Five Nights at Freddy’s took control of the box office by a margin of $63.3 million.

In its first weekend of release, the latest horror film from Blumhouse Productions easily claimed the number spot of the weekend box-office top ten with an opening of $78.0 million for the Universal release. Last week’s top film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour finished in a very distant second place with $14.7 million. Despite the finish, the film still sports a three-week total of $149.3 million. Meanwhile, Killers of the Flower Moon dropped a spot to land in third place where it added $9.0 million over the weekend, giving the Paramount Pictures product a two-week total of $40.7 million. The second debut of the weekend, Angel Studios’ After Death landed in fourth place with $5.1 million. Dropping two spots to finish in fifth this weekend, The Exorcist: Believer...
