What happens when Halloween Horror Nights becomes a year-round experience?On this episode of Sigma Duocast, Rick heads to Las Vegas for his first visit to Universal Horror Unleashed at Area15—and the timing couldn't have been better. It was the final weekend of the Resident Evil takeover.Rick breaks down the full experience, from exploring Raccoon City, solving interactive RPD puzzles, encountering Leon, Claire, Jill, Carlos, Nemesis, zombies and an incredibly convincing Licker, to surviving the T-Virus Trio at the Umbrella Café.He also takes on all four permanent haunted houses—Scarecrow: The Reaping, Universal Monsters, Blumhouse's The Exorcist: Believer and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre—and explains why the permanent sets, controlled pacing and lack of the traditional “conga line” make Horror Unleashed feel completely different from Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood.Plus, after finding much of the Resident Evil merchandise sold out in Vegas, Rick shares how his brother's trip to Universal Studios Japan turned into a Resident Evil merch mission—and why Japan's approach to giving fans a fair shot at limited merchandise stood out.From the houses and scares to the food, drinks, merchandise and overall atmosphere, was Universal Horror Unleashed worth the trip?For Rick, the answer was an easy 10/10—and now he wants more.

In this interview, which is Lara's first for this movie, we are opening the red door once again, but this time, the rules have completely changed. We are talking about Insidious: Out of the Further, the highly anticipated sixth installment in the legendary Blumhouse franchise. Directed by Jacob Chase, this new chapter flips the script—instead of our characters getting trapped in the smoky, demon-filled realm of 'The Further,' those terrifying entities are being dragged out into our reality.I sat down with the amazing and talented Lara Fourie who may have had a short sequence, but she had a lot to say about this film. She took me into the further and she presented a lot of insight and context for behind the scenes of one of the most iconic horror franchises in the world. Hearing about the practical scares, the shattered boundary of the further, and the incredible energy on that Melbourne set just makes me even more excited to see this chaos unfold on the big screen. For everyone watching at home, prepare yourselves. Insidious: Out of the Further changed the rules of the franchise forever. And to all our viewers—keep those red doors locked, leave a light on, and I will see you next time!Be sure to follow Lara Fourie in Instagram @ llarafourie

The Insidious series is six movies strong and 15 years old. Really? From dental hygienist horror and endless living room forts to the tattooist mapping out plans on grapefruits, this movie is... well, it's a Part 6! Is there still life in this $815 million franchise, or has it finally run out of steam? I discuss Amelia Eve's striking resemblance to Naomi Watts, Lin Shaye's glorious return as Elise, and whether "Cyrus" makes for a memorable villain. One thing is for sure: There will be another sequel.

Synopsis Gemma is a mother and a dentist (the two hardest jobs of them all), living in her childhood home with her daughter Maya. When Gemma was a child she watched her mother battle with mental health and eventually kill herself by bashing her own head into the shower wall repeatedly. Why does Gemma continue to live in that house and use that shower? Cause the plot needs her to. After experiencing some insidious events, Gemma must protect her daughter as she tries to reconnect with her past. What happens next will shock you, but spoilers…it’s insidious. Review of Insidious: Out of the Further Insidious is a franchise that has been near and dear to my heart. It was one of the first horror movies I really got into as a teenager, probably because it was rated PG-13 and I was too young to buy my own rated R tickets. The first two are gems, the third is okay, and the fourth is so terrible I don’t even want to consider it a part of the franchise. Some studios would have let it die. But not Blumhouse. Blumhouse will NEVER let this franchise die. Insidious 5: The Red Door came out a few years ago, and you know what? I didn’t hate it. But now we get a 6th addition to the story, which is mostly disconnected from the story in the other films and follows its own path. The story is about as good as I expected from a 6th Insidious installment, and it was able to make some lore additions that I found fresh and interesting. If you are looking for a great movie, maybe go rewatch Obsession, Hokum, or the Backrooms. This movie is pretty alright, and I think that is all we can ask of another insidious movie.

Send us Fan MailScott and Michelle continue their journey through Halloween Horror Nights history with a deep dive into Halloween Horror Nights 27, the 2017 event that delivered an incredible mixture of blockbuster horror properties, original concepts, and one of the strangest event mascots in HHN history.HHN 27 ran from September 15 through November 4, 2017, featuring nine haunted houses, five official scare zones, and two live shows. At the center of the event was Bone, the mysterious skeletal character associated with Festival of the Deadliest, a scare zone celebrating some of the deadliest creatures and killers imaginable. Bone became one of those HHN characters that fans couldn't help but remember.But the houses were where 2017 really made its mark.The guys break down the arrival of Stranger Things, which transported guests into Hawkins and the Upside Down, as well as The Shining, bringing the terrifying Overlook Hotel and Jack Torrance to life.They also revisit Ash vs Evil Dead, the return of American Horror Story with Asylum, Coven, and Roanoke, The Horrors of Blumhouse, and another chapter of The Walking Dead. The 2017 American Horror Story house specifically combined three seasons of the series into one experience. The original houses get plenty of attention as well, including Scarecrow: The Reaping, Dead Waters, and The Hive, while the streets offered memorable experiences such as Trick 'r Treat, The Purge, Invasion!, Chainsaw Clown Horde, and Festival of the Deadliest. The episode also looks at the impact of Hurricane Irma, which hit Florida just before the event and affected the preparation and opening presentation of several scare zones. Scott and Michelle break down the houses, zones, shows, characters, atmosphere, and overall legacy of HHN 27, while asking whether 2017 deserves to be remembered as one of the more underrated years of the 2010s.It's time to open the Time Capsule and head back to 2017.Make your rooms, cars and life smell like your favorite Theme Park and save 15% by using code THNETWORK and clicking here:https://magiccandlecompany.com?sca_ref=8499280.CVzaCEZ7KoGhost Executioners Merchandise!https://www.teepublic.com/user/thehorrificnetwork?utm_source=designer&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=horrificnetworkFollow All Things Horrific Network Herehttps://linktr.ee/thehorrificnetworkGet Your Sinister Creature Con Tickets Herehttps://www.sinistercreaturecon.com/thecon
Tonight on Damn You Hollywood we are reviewing SoulM8te. The 2026 science fiction erotic thriller is a spin-off of M3GAN and the third installment in the franchise. Directed and co-written by Kate Dolan, the film stars Lily Sullivan, David Rysdahl and Claudia Doumit, with Jason Blum and James Wan producing under the Blumhouse and Atomic Monster banners. The story follows a grieving man who beta tests an android companion as a way of coping with the death of his wife, only for the experiment in artificial intimacy to become increasingly dangerous. SoulM8te originated from a story by Wan, Ingrid Bisu and Rafael Jordan, with Dolan rewriting Jordan's original screenplay. Filming took place in Dublin from September through November 2024. Originally scheduled for a theatrical release in early 2026, the film was pulled from Universal's calendar before eventually premiering at the Gaze International LGBT Film Festival Dublin on July 31. Universal released it straight-to-digital on August 1, 2026.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Once upon a time, Blumhouse planned an entire M3GANVERSE. Then M3GAN 2.0 bombed at the box office, and the concept was scrapped. Kate Dolan's companion-bot spinoff, SOULM8TE, vanished from the release calendar. You hate to see any film become a casualty of business decisions, but here we are, with SOULM8TE unceremoniously dumped on digital instead of its planned theatrical run. Could it be as bad as the inside baseball of a film losing its release plan, forgoing any critics' screenings, and just plopping on rental platforms with almost no notice? One of the Matts thinks so—listen in to find out which one! About SOULM8TE A man (David Rysdahl) acquires an Artificially Intelligent android (Lily Sullivan) to cope with the loss of his recently deceased wife. In an attempt to create a truly sentient partner, he inadvertently turns a harmless lovebot into a deadly soulmate.

Wonder Dynamics co-founders Tye Sheridan and Nikola Todorovic join GG Hawkins to explain how their filmmaking backgrounds shaped the development of AI-powered production tools for artists. They trace the company's evolution from an interactive storytelling startup to Autodesk Flow Studio, a tool designed to transfer live-action performances to CG characters while preserving creative control and compatibility with established VFX pipelines. The conversation covers Hollywood's changing relationship with artificial intelligence, the potential for lower-cost sci-fi filmmaking, Autodesk's acquisition of Wonder Dynamics, the continuing importance of marketing and distribution, and how emerging filmmakers can prepare for an AI-integrated industry. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guests Tye Sheridan and Nikola Todorovic discuss... How Sheridan and Todorovic met while working on Last Days in the Desert and bonded over their interest in making independent science-fiction films Why the expense of CG and visual effects inspired them to pursue a lower-budget, “Blumhouse model” for sci-fi and animation Wonder Dynamics' pivot from interactive narratives to AI tools focused on film production Why AI filmmaking technology should be developed by people who understand professional production and post-production workflows The differences between tools made for social media content and tools made for long-form narrative filmmaking Why editability, control, and compatibility with established VFX pipelines became central to Autodesk Flow Studio How Autodesk Flow Studio captures a performance from single-camera footage and transfers it to a CG character without a traditional motion-capture stage Why Sheridan and Todorovic do not believe an actor's performance should be generated entirely through prompts Hollywood's pushback against AI during the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes and the industry's gradual shift toward discussing responsible use How filmmakers can evaluate AI tools according to their ethics, usefulness, and respect for artistic control The potential for AI to lower production costs and help independent filmmakers create ambitious sci-fi and VFX-heavy projects Why cheaper production does not eliminate the challenges of marketing, distribution, and audience discovery How short films, YouTube projects, commercials, and music videos can serve as testing grounds for new filmmaking technology The opportunity to create visually ambitious genre films that remain grounded in original ideas and character-driven storytelling What Autodesk's acquisition of Wonder Dynamics provides in terms of 3D expertise, scale, resources, and integration How small production teams have used Autodesk Flow Studio to revive scripts they previously could not afford to produce Why future filmmakers may see AI as an ordinary part of every creative tool rather than a separate category Sheridan's advice to practice whenever an opportunity appears and learn from every film set Todorovic's advice to persistently seek mentors and approach experienced professionals with genuine curiosity Memorable Quotes: “For us, that became our core theme, is just building something for artists that leaves them in control.” “AI is like the Internet. You can't just say AI is bad or AI is good. It means so many different things. It really depends on how you're using it and whether or not you're maintaining the integrity of the artist process.” “We're kind of allowing distribution to everybody, we're going to allow the production to everybody, but now it's a matter of being discovered.” “Be stubborn, be persistent, and try to find the best mentor you can possibly think of, someone you admire, and then just bother them with emails for six months. You'd be surprised.” Guests: Tye Sheridan Nikola Todorovic Resources: Autodesk Flow Studio Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram

This week on Real Horrorshow, we're witnessing miracles...or something much darker. We dive into Midnight Mass Episode 3 as Crockett Island is swept up in a wave of religious fervor after Leeza's seemingly miraculous recovery. Forgiveness, faith, and fanaticism collide as Father Paul's shocking secret is finally revealed: he's actually a rejuvenated Monsignor Pruitt, transformed after a terrifying encounter with a mysterious winged creature he believes to be an angel. Is this divine intervention—or the beginning of something unspeakable? We unpack one of the series' biggest twists, discuss Mike Flanagan's masterful use of religious symbolism, and explore how easily hope can become dangerous when people desperately want to believe. Plus, we share our thoughts on the breakout horror hit Obsession and whether it lives up to the growing buzz. If you love psychological horror, vampire lore, and stories where faith and fear become impossible to separate, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

OTHER MOMMY JUST UNLOCKED A WHOLE NEW FEAR. Roxy Striar and Tara Erickson give their Other Mommy trailer reaction and first-look review, breaking down Jessica Chastain's terrifying new horror movie, the kitchen-table jump scare, and the mystery behind a child who claims an identical “other mommy” is visiting her home. In this Reel Rejects Other Mommy reaction, Tara and Roxy discuss director Rob Savage's 2026 adaptation of Josh Malerman's acclaimed horror novel Incidents Around the House, produced by James Wan's Atomic Monster and Blumhouse. From the unsettling “you were in my heart” line and Jessica Chastain's unnatural tears to the Other Mommy kitchen-table jump scare that made Tara completely lose it, this could be one of the scariest theater trailers of 2026. We discuss whether the Other Mommy is a ghost, clone, secret twin, or something even more sinister, along with the cast, the trailer reportedly playing before The Odyssey, and the movie's October 2026 release date.

Obsession — who hasn't seen it at this point? Curry Barker's $750K horror film has made over $400 million, minted a star in Inde Navarrette, and started a fight about what to even call this genre. This week we dig into the BTS trivia, the scenes we can't stop thinking about, and the Indian censor board's missing 36 seconds. Then we get into nice guy horror itself: the worst Pokémon evolution you've ever heard, Bollywood's hypermasculine inverse, and the Indian remake of Obsession that lives in our heads.

Constantine Rousouli is a two-time Tony nominated actor, writer and producer, best known for co-creating, writing, and starring in hit Broadway musical TITANIQUE, which earned four Tony nominations this season, including “Best Musical” and “Best Book of a Musical.” The show is a satirical reimagining of the Oscar-winning feature film Titanic from the point of view of Celine Dion. Connie stars as “Jack Dawson.” TITANIQUE has received rave reviews and critical acclaim including two Lucille Lortel Awards, two Olivier Awards, and Drama League and Drama Desk nominations. The show previously toured off-Broadway in Chicago, Canada, London, Australia, and Paris and kicked off its Broadway run this spring at the St. James Theatre with Connie returning as “Jack” alongside returning castmate & co-creator Marla Mindelle as “Celine Dion” and new cast additions Jim Parsons and Deborah Cox. The production has also extended its Broadway run through the end of September, driven by its continued popularity and positive reception from audiences. Following the success of TITANIQUE, Connie and his longtime collaborator & partner Marla Mindelle debuted their new off-Broadway musical, BIG GAY JAMBOREE, backed by producer Margot Robbie and LuckyChap. Marla & Connie are also developing TROOP! A BEVERLY HILLSICAL with A24 for The Cherry Lane Theatre. Connie & Marla are also currently in development with Broadway Video and UTV on an original half-hour comedy series that they are co-writing and would star in together. The idea came together after Lorne Michaels saw (& fell in love with) TITANIQUE and had Connie & Marla test for SNL. Connie first got his start on Broadway with the revival of Hairspray as “Link Larkin.” He toured with Wicked as “Prince Fiyero”, performed in the Hollywood Bowl run of Hair with Kristen Bell, directed by Adam Shankman, and made waves starring as “Sebastian” in the off-Broadway cult hit Cruel Intentions: The 90s Musical Experience. Marla has graced Broadway stages in productions such as South Pacific, Cinderella, and as part of the original cast of Sister Act as “Sister Mary Robert.” Connie's TV & film acting credits include THE OTHER TWO (Comedy Central/Max), 9-1-1 (Fox), AJ AND THE QUEEN (Netflix), THE DEUCE (HBO), the CW reboot of CHARMED as a fan-favorite heartthrob villain, and Blumhouse & Universal's THIS IS THE NIGHT.

BioWith the premiere of Acorn TV's new mystery drama You're Killing Me, I wanted to introduce composer, songwriter, producer, and artist Alexandra Petkovski AKA FJØRA. Executive produced by and starring Brooke Shields, the series marks Alexandra's first network television project, for which she created the score, main title theme, and original songs featured throughout the season. Known for blending score and soundtrack, Alexandra built a musical world where themes introduced throughout the series conclude in songs released under FJØRA. Inspired by the New England coastal setting, she incorporated sampled seashells and seagulls into the score, while also lending her vocals to the main title theme. The project was a strong collaboration with showrunner Robin Bernheimburger, who shares her passion for music-driven storytelling. Prior to You're Killing Me, Alexandra worked alongside Linda Perry on Prime Video's Welcome to the Blumhouse and was recently featured in Emmy Magazine ahead of the series premiere. Mentored by Siddharth "Sid" Khosla (Only Murders in the Building), she can speak about blending songwriting with scoring, developing a distinctive compositional style, and building a career across both the artist and composer worlds.

We are of course talking about BLUMHOUSE! It all started in 2007 with an obscure found footage gem called Paranormal Activity. Since then, the house that Jason Blum built has become the go-to name for spooky cinema, franchise favorites and the latest blockbusters like Obsession and Backrooms.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Everyone's forgotten Peter Parker…or have they? Sony gave us a second full trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the interwebs are buzzing about it. We get longer looks at Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner/Hulk and Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle/Punisher in the film, as well as allusions to the big bad of the movie - though Tom Holland recently said on the press tour that the antagonist has not been figured out yet by fans. Films continue to top each other's openings at the box office this year, with Toy Story 5 having the current title of best opening of the year to the tune of $160 million domestically over the Father's Day weekend. This was also the all-time best opening for the 30-year-old franchise. Disclosure Day took second place this weekend, though Toy Story practically beat its global take in the states alone, and Obsession and Backrooms continue their strong streaks coming in at third and fourth respectively.Universal and Blumhouse's Atomic Monster are jumping on the Curry Barker bandwagon having acquired the young director's third film in a reported eight figure deal. While Universal has been backing Barker, both Obsession and his upcoming film Anything But Ghosts are coming from Focus Features. Blumhouse has produced those same films, but this new move puts the horror powerhouse in a stronger position for film development. To tag onto the box office talk and remind you, Obsession was made for $750,000 and has now made more than $300 million worldwide - making it a tantalizing prospect for Blumhouse.Netflix has opted not to proceed with a second season of The Boroughs, a sci-fi TV series executive produced by Stranger Things creators The Duffer Brothers. The series debuted its first season last month. Universal and Imagine Entertainment are developing a sequel to 2000's How the Grinch Stole Christmas, with Jim Carrey in talks to reprise his role as the classic Dr. Seuss character the Grinch and Ron Howard returning to direct. Manny Jacinto, Emily Mortimer, and Thomasin McKenzie have joined the Season 3 cast of Prime Video's Fallout in recurring roles. In a new interview with Collider, Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri revealed that Star Wars creator George Lucas was cast in a small voice part in the upcoming Minions and Monsters because Lucas is a longtime fan of the Despicable Me franchise. Toy Story 4 director Josh Cooley is reteaming with Keanu Reeves for a live-action hybrid Lego movie that Cooley will direct and Reeves will star in according to Deadline. Netflix has won the rights to develop Alix E. Harrow's best selling novel The Everlasting and will enter production on a series adaptation immediately according to Variety. The Everlasting is a time loop fantasy novel and was one of the best selling books of last year.Universal Pictures has announced that the next Illumination animated film will be Not Alone, an alien movie starring Timothée Chalamet & Selena Gomez which will release in April of next year. Dylan Clark's reboot of The Blair Witch Project for Lionsgate has landed a release date of September 24, 2027.Legendary has announced that a live action Magic School Bus movie is officially in the works with Elizabeth Banks set to play Ms. Frizzle. Detective Pikachu and Goosebumps director Rob Letterman will helm the feature.

Mike talks about where this movie went too far, the uncomfortable gore and what it means for the rest of the Blumhouse, Atomic Monster and New Line’s major monster revival. In the Trailer Park, Mikes about The End of Oak Street that features Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor run from dinosaurs in suburbia. Mike shares the reason we don’t get more dinosaur movies, what director Anne Hathaway says saved her career and a tragic story with a cast member. New Episodes Every Monday!
