In PCJ Pops, the Pop Culture Junkies share their recommendations on what to experience in pop culture, today and yesterday.The end of August means Spooky Season is upon us, so Olivia recommends the terrifying and poignant Netflix limited series The Haunting of Hill House from 2018. Based on the Shirley Jackson novel of the same name, the series was written and directed by Mike Flanagan and starred Henry Thomas, Carla Gugino and a cast of Mike Flanagan players.This episode includes AI-generated content.
Casey picks Jan de Bont's The Haunting for the second movie in our Dead of Summer triple feature. In this episode, we meet Hugh Crain, along with Hill House itself. We trace the film's tangled path from a planned Spielberg/Stephen King collaboration (that eventually became King's Rose Red) through Jan de Bont taking the reins, and break down all 16 monster reveals hiding in Liam Neeson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Owen Wilson, and Lili Taylor's ill-fated sleep study. We compare this haunted house movie to both the 1963 original and Mike Flanagan's Netflix series, geek out over the ILM and Tippett Studios effects work, run our Real Monsters segment, and find out once and for all whether any of us would survive a night in Hill House.

So much better than we expected! Natalie Grace in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) ★★★★ The first half of 2026 certainly made a statement in the horror genre. Reverberations will be felt across Hollywood as studios reassess what constitutes a blockbuster. The recent critical success of Sinners, Weapons, and The Substance appears to be bearing fruit. The results may have led to a diverse slate of offerings for 2026, and it is reflected in the wide array of horror offerings so far this year. If variety is your preference, then you have been in luck, so far. The unimaginable financial and critical success of Obsession and Backrooms, particularly given their low cost, have re-written the horror producer’s playbook, and will have a lasting impact for years to come. The Scariest Things evaluated what we’ve seen so far, and have come back with a report card of our favorites. The Mid Major – Large Indie Productions: It will be interesting to do an autopsy of 2026’s horror fare when we do our year end assessment. This year’s crop has been notably light on mid-major productions so far. The roaring successes we’ve seen thus far have been from the deep indie filmmakers. Backrooms, Undertone, Hokum, and Obsession. All original titles, and produced for less than $5 million. These are not the type of films you would typically predict would be box office hits. But, they outperformed any reasonable expectation, particularly startling for Backrooms and Obsession, which will have cinema economists trying to figure out the alchemy. The Major Studios: There were only a few major studio franchise sequels this year. All of them capable, but none of them superseding their source material. Scream 7 did very well at the box office, but it failed to make a big impression. Evil Dead Burn was a very violent, very intense outing that didn’t connect in the way its predecessors have. Scary Movie also did well on its $30 million budget, earning $210 million, its long layoff didn’t hurt its popularity, despite the derivative humor. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was a hit with critics (including our own Liz Williams) but it’s turn from zombies may have hurt it in the box office, as it probably will not make its budget back. The notable big comeback was Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, which gives horror fans hope that Universal has gotten their monsterverse back on track, and remembered how to deliver a vicious movie with a good story. The Festival Circuit: Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get out to as many film festivals this year as we would have liked, but we still managed to review a lot of great small indie horror films. Our traditional rotation of SXSW, Overlook, Portland Horror, and Popcorn Frights all provided very interesting films from emerging filmmakers. Even the bigger festival this year were heavy on small indie productions, and there were a lot of good offerings. We didn’t discuss all of them in our Podcast, but you can review a lot of the movies we saw with links on the images below. There is an emerging trend of release schedules for many of the best independent horror films, relative to the festival circuit. Open at SXSW (Or sometimes Sundance), get some buzz, go to Overlook to validate the buzz, and then release in the early summer. It can be a big momentum builder. Last year it was The Ugly Stepsister (Oscar Nom), and Good Boy that were the big beneficiaries of that combination. This year it was Obsession, Hokum, and Leviticus. Sometimes Panic Fest will factor into the equation, depending on when runs relative to Overlook. Popcorn Frights still brought a massive catalogue for viewing, but this year was more reliant on reperatory films. Some of my favorite films this year were horror adjacent, and all of their streaming content was small indie productions. Our favorite local festival, The Portland Horror Film Festival had an unusually large amount of feature films, and the best part was that almost all of the directors participated in the festival. We were fortunate to get interviews with all of them. Check out our Podcasts for the interviews. It was a diverse group of films, and not a dud among them. What is Still Coming in 2026? Probably the most intriguing film still due out is a new take on Resident Evil by Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian and Weapons. This is a major tonal shift for Sony. No more Mia Jovovic or Paul W.S. Anderson. Video game translations are usually dubious, and the franchise squandered its potential. It became more superhero and less horror. However, Sony is gambling that with the right creator, it might revitalize the legacy, and Cregger may inject real scares into this franchise for the first time since the original. We shall see. The trailer looks great. Other Mommy, which arrives on October 9, has some incredibly disturbing visuals. Jessica Chastain stars, and Rob Savage (Host) directs. This uncanny-valley movie came late to my radar and is intriguing. Later this August, the Insidious franchise is issuing Insidious: Out of the Further. Lin Shaye returns, Leigh Whannell writes this, and it has a banger trailer. This franchise has maintained some of the scariest PG-13 fare, but the sequels have been a gradual decline in quality. We’ll see how this goes. Beware Boiúna might give us the Anaconda movie we wish we got earlier this year, and wipe the slate clean from the Jack Black/Paul Rudd disappointment. It’s R-rated, and features reliable scream queen Jessica Rothe, along with Logan Marshall-Green and Kiana Madeira in the Amazon. The trailer impressed me with the snake’s monstrousness. Another fascinating man-vs-nature survival tale is Whalefall, a terrifying concept in which a scuba diver is in jeopardy of being consumed by a sperm whale if the giant squid the whale has snagged doesn’t kill him first. Clayface will attempt to bridge the superhero and horror genres, which is no easy feat. Will it have enough horror for horror fans, and will it have enough fealty to the Batman universe to appeal to the comic book fans? Mike Flanagan wrote it, and it promises real R-rated body horror, so it could be very interesting. Lastly, Robert Eggers’ period piece Werwulf is getting the full Eggers treatment, in monochrome and as moody as you could possibly want. Hopefully it will get the stink of the Wolf Man out of our popcorn. Just give me a great transformation scene, please. Keep an eye out for It Ends, a festival darling from 2025 which is finally getting a limited release this year. It is a brilliant, if melancholy purgatory metaphor. If you enjoyed Backrooms, you should check this film out if you are lucky enough to have it showing in a theater near you. Of course, some smaller films will come out of the shadows and inevitably make our end-of-the-top-10 lists, but this is what we know so far.

Are The Boulet Brothers the hardest working drag queens in the world? There's an easy case to be made that they are. From hosting their long-running and Emmy nominated show The Boulet Brothers' Dragula, to guest-editing Heavy Metal, to producing and hosting their Creatures of the Night podcast, it's a wonder Dracmorda and Swanthula Boulet found the time to join Vespe and Breznican to talk over Mike Flanagan's adaptation of Stephen King's Shining sequel, Doctor Sleep.Join in on this rambunctious conversation in which we talk about how drop dead sexy Rose the Hat is, debate about which is better: the director's cut or theatrical, figure out if baseball kids kind of deserve to get murdered by psychic vampires, and definitively answer which Stephen King character is best represented in drag.
This week, the 2 Guys 5 Movies podcast continues the journey through the horror of the 2010s. Frank's 2016 list includes Damien Leone's Terrifier, the Korean zombie movie Train to Busan, Andre Ovredal's The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Mike Flanagan's Hush, and the Lovecraftian horror The Void. Finally, if you have your own ideas for the podcast, you can also email us with list suggestions at 2guys5movies@gmail.com, and thank you all for listening and your support.
Following some recent (rather austere) contemplations on the idea of passing things forward through time, this week's episode takes the conversation into slightly more poetic territory in examining Mike Flanagan's recent profound sci-fi drama, The Life of Chuck.We also briefly discuss:Backrooms (2026) d.

Yes Have Some: Celebrating 35 Years of Ghostbusters in 2019!
Puntata a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Livio Pacella.Due anni dopo la folgorante The Haunting of Hill House, del 2018, la serie antologica di Mike Flanagan tornò con un secondo, e ovviamente autonomo, capitolo: The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020, 9 episodi, Netflix). Capace di tenere altissima l'asticella del progetto The Haunting. Anche qui il racconto gioca con i piani temporali - in modo solo apparentemente più semplice - proponendo una struttura a cornice. Una donna, alle prove di un matrimonio, intrattiene gli altri ospiti con il racconto notturno di una storia paurosa: è la storia che verrà raccontata allo spettatore, e che si è svolta in Inghilterra 20 anni prima. Quella di una giovane istitutrice americana che viene chiamata ad accudire due bambini, rimasti orfani, in una grande e antica casa che presto inizia a ospitare apparizioni e fenomeni… “Nuovi classici”: il podcast a due voci di Mondoserie su show che diventano fenomeni immediati.Leggi l'articolo sul progetto The Haunting of: https://www.mondoserie.it/the-haunting-mike-flanagan/ Ascolta il podcast su Hill House: https://www.mondoserie.it/the-haunting-of-hill-house-podcast/ Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/ Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/
Another bonus as we continue through Mike Flanagan's "Midnight Mass." Things getting serious now.
The Warhammer 40,000 live action series just went from "we assume" to confirmed. Henry Cavill has publicly stated he is starring in the Amazon MGM adaptation, not just executive producing it, and the character he is playing is staying under wraps for now. Alongside that, Mike Flanagan is on board writing, and per Games Workshop's own reporting, the outlines are finished and the project is moving into the scripting phase.Frank breaks down why Flanagan is a strong signal for the tone of this show. The Haunting of Hill House, Midnight Mass, and Doctor Sleep are all dark, character driven work, and 40K lives or dies on whether it treats its grimdark setting as more than a backdrop for power armor. Flanagan has signed a multi-year deal with Amazon, so this is not a one and done gig.What is still unknown is the bigger question: which faction, which era, and which character. Frank shares a take from a friend in the space who is hoping for an Eisenhorn adaptation, putting an Inquisitor at the center rather than a Space Marine chapter, and opens the floor to listeners on whether that is the right entry point into the setting.0:00 Warhammer 40K Follow Up From Yesterday0:02 Henry Cavill Confirms He Is Starring0:08 Mike Flanagan Joins as Writer0:12 Why Flanagan's Track Record Matters Here0:19 Outlines Done, Script Phase Next0:24 What We Still Do Not Know0:32 The Eisenhorn Theory and Your TakeHenry Cavill confirmed he is starring in the live action Warhammer 40,000 series, not just producing it.Cavill's character has not been revealed and is being kept secret for now.Mike Flanagan is attached to write, coming off The Haunting of Hill House, Midnight Mass, and Doctor Sleep.Flanagan signed a multi-year deal with Amazon, so the commitment goes beyond a single project.The outlines are complete and the project is moving into scripting.No faction, era, or storyline has been announced, which is a massive open question in a setting this large.Fan speculation is leaning toward an Eisenhorn adaptation, centered on the Inquisitor from Dan Abnett's novels.Flanagan's strength in dark, character driven narrative lines up well with the tone 40K needs."Henry Cavill just confirmed that he is actually going to be starring in the live action series, which I think we all assumed, but now we have confirmation.""He also brought in Mike Flanagan to be writing it, and that's a very good sign.""We don't even know who Henry Cavill is actually playing, just that he is playing in it. He's not just the producer.""I pretty much trust anything Mike Flanagan's writing nowadays."Is Eisenhorn the right entry point for a live action 40K series, or should Amazon go straight to a Space Marine chapter? And is Flanagan the right writer for this universe?

Topographic Topics – July 2026 The big news driving the episode is Asia's upcoming album *Indigo*, releasing November 6th via Frontiers Music. It will be their first studio album since 2014, which makes the announcement genuinely surprising and worth paying attention to. Joe shares his deep enthusiasm for Asia across all its iterations, and the group digs into what makes this release feel significant. John Mitchell shares production duties with Geoff Downs, John Wetton receives co-writing credits on several tracks, and both Steve Howe and Mike Portnoy make guest appearances (that guest list alone is worth the conversation). Can the first single, "The Traveler Into the Light," really recapture the feel of early 1980s Asia, or is it simply the product of a band deeply immersed in its own legacy? Beyond Asia, the group also covers Steven Wilson's surprise solo album announcement, Rick Wakeman's sequel album "Return to the Red Planet," and a lengthy discussion about the apparently still-viable development of Mike Flanagan's Dark Tower adaptation. They even venture into pedal board frustrations and guitar gear. Genuinely, there is something here for every kind of progressive rock fan. Tune in and join the conversation.

Host Jesse Jackson welcomes new friend John Mountain, a 64-year-old widower and longtime Bruce Springsteen fan, to discuss the music, shows, and stories that shaped him. John grew up in South Carolina before moving to Bakersfield, California, shares early influences like Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and recalls first hearing Springsteen through the 1981 No Nukes concert film, especially “The River.” A movie buff and horror fan, he talks Terrence Malick's Badlands, Nebraska's Starkweather connection, and directors like Mike Flanagan.

This interview originally aired in June of 2025; this version has been re-edited with new content from Jordan. Samantha Sloyan is a familar face from countless television shows (Grey's Anatomy, Rizzoli & Isles, The Pitt), but that face will be particularly familiar to anyone who keeps up with the “Flanaverse” — movies and shows from Mike Flanagan, like Midnight Mass, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Haunting of Hill House, and now the forthcoming Carrie miniseries, in which Samantha plays Mrs. White, Carrie's mom. At the time of this interview, Sloyan's latest project is a departure for Flanagan, and perhaps for her as well — The Life of Chuck. Together, she and huge fan Jordan discuss the ways that she feels seen by FBI Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachan) in David Lynch's Twin Peaks, and the many ways that Lynch's storytelling style appeals to her craft as an actor.

This week we're doing our annual SDCC download, and there is a lot to unpack. We start with Avengers: Doomsday, because obviously, and get into the very Dr. Doom-heavy footage from Hall H. From there we hop to Disney+'s Percy Jackson, which just dropped a season 3 teaser and a release date (November 20!) that has book readers buzzing about how accurate this season might actually be. Then we talking about Mike Flanagan's Carrie reboot — yes, with cell phones, yes, we have thoughts — landing on Prime October 7, plus Matthew Lillard's casting as the principal, which, honestly, correct choice. And because no Comic-Con recap is complete without a little discourse, we get into Kevin Feige comparing the Doctor Doom buildup to Thanos and why fans are very much not here for it. Rounding things out, we've got Spaceballs news (Rick Moranis showed UP, people), a surprisingly moving story about how fan campaigning got Coyote vs. Acme un-shelved and into actual theaters, and just an overall reminder that this fandom stuff still means something to people. We close things out with recs: Laura's hydrating her face with the Elf Holy Hydration moisturizer, Eric's deep in Star Trek mode with the Improvised Star Trek podcast (start on episode 85, "The Search for Sock"), and Pam wants you to buy local produce when you can to avoid the current explosive diarrhea outbreak sweeping the nation.

On today's episode, I'm chatting with cinematographer James Kniest about his work on the upcoming Amazon original film, The Devil's Mouth. The setup is classic survival horror: a group of college friends on a Thailand trip end up trapped in submerged caves. There's a dangerous predator in the water with them, and all their ugly personal baggage and past conflicts start bubbling up while they try not to die. What makes or breaks a movie like this usually comes down to how real that claustrophobia feels, so James and I talk about what it actually takes to shoot in dark, wet, cramped spaces without it looking like a soundstage.Before we get to that interview, I want to talk about a fantastic new track from the San Francisco punk band Tess & The Details. They just released a cover of Green Day's "Scattered," which is featured on a new Green Day tribute compilation out from Coffin Curse Records and Punk Rock Radar. Even better, all the proceeds from the compilation go straight to no-kill animal shelters.Rather than just doing a carbon copy of the original Nimrod track, they completely made it their own. Frontwoman Tess Stevens directed the music video as a bit of a love letter to the Bay Area, shooting at places like an old BART station payphone and the legendary San Francisco venue Bottom of the Hill, which is unfortunately closing down at the end of 2026. I'm going to play a quick snippet of the song right now, and then I'll play the full track at the very end of the episode after the interview.Ok lets get into my conversation with James. In addition to The Devil's Mouth, we chat about our shared love of music, the current state of the film industry, and what it was like working with Mike Flanagan. The Devil's Mouth will be available to stream on Amazon Prime on 7/29. I hope you enjoy the show

We continue to go through the Mike Flanagan series "Midnight Mass" in our bonus episodes. Each episode in this series continues to be better.
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.

HOLY HELL, DC IS ACTUALLY GOING THERE!! Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau react to the brand-new CLAYFACE Official Trailer from DC Studios, released during SDCC 2026 week! Fresh off the massive Avengers: Doomsday trailer, San Diego Comic-Con continues with our first full look at this R-rated DCU body-horror movie set in Gotham City. In our Clayface trailer reaction, breakdown, and review, we discuss Tom Rhys Harries as struggling actor Matt Hagen, his horrifying transformation into the classic Batman villain, Naomi Ackie as Dr. Caitlyn Corr, Max Minghella as Gotham detective John Pearlman, and director James Watkins fully embracing the grotesque horror of movies like The Fly and The Substance. The practical effects, melting faces, scissors scene, nanotechnology serum, psychological horror, and tragic character story all make this feel completely different from anything Marvel or DC has attempted before. We also talk about James Gunn and Peter Safran's DC Universe, Mike Flanagan's original Clayface script, this movie's place in the DCU, the absence of Batman, potential connections to the Caped Crusader, Matt Reeves' The Batman Part II, Robert Pattinson's Batman universe, DC Studios at San Diego Comic-Con, and whether Clayface could become one of the most disturbing comic-book movies ever made.

401 VelociPastor II Interview Jurassic Park Trivia Comic Con CarrieDoom Scrolling IntroThe Foos kick off the 400s with yard-work injuries, mosquito attacks, and the ongoing backyard project that may or may not destroy Joe's arm before it's done. Steph explains her mosquito bite allergy situation, Joe suspects he messed up his elbow trenching in 90-degree weather, and somehow this still counts as progress.Geeking Out starts with San Diego Comic-Con week: Marvel is expected to bring Avengers Doomsday heat to Hall H, Insomniac is showing off Marvel's Wolverine, DC is bringing Batman: Caped Crusader and Lanterns energy, Guillermo del Toro is tied to Pan's Labyrinth programming, and The VelociPastor II is premiering at the con with a double feature of the original movie.Then it's horror TV news: Mike Flanagan is bringing Stephen King's Carrie to Prime Video as a series, which actually makes sense given his track record with Gerald's Game and Doctor Sleep. The Foos also talk American Horror Story Season 13 bringing back a massive lineup of franchise favorites, including Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts, and Billie Lourd.In honor of Sam Neill, Steph runs Joe through Jurassic Park trivia focused on the original movie. There are correct answers, wrong answers, technical difficulties, a timer disaster, and the realization that the first dinosaur they see is not the Triceratops with the giant pile of poop.The main event is an interview with Jesse Gouldsberry, director of The VelociPastor II and producer/director of photography on the original VelociPastor. Jesse talks about how a fake title and college short became a real cult movie, how the first trailer went micro-viral and even landed on G4's Attack of the Show, the jump from the first film's tiny budget to the sequel, and why having more money doesn't mean losing the handmade chaos.They dig into the fake Australian trailer narration, the legendary “VFX: Car on fire” placeholder gag, balancing intentionally ridiculous filmmaking with actual story structure, the pressure of making a sequel to a cult favorite, and the DIY production choices that keep the movie feeling like community-theater grindhouse insanity in the best way possible.Jesse also talks about premiering The VelociPastor II in a 14th-century church in Prague, bringing it to San Diego Comic-Con, planning a roadshow, getting rights back to the first film, possible future streaming/distribution plans, and why fans should ask their local theaters to bring the movie to town.ChaptersDoom Scrolling IntroIntroMosquito bites skeeter syndrome and yard work injuriesBackyard project trenching granite sod and chaosGeeking Out San Diego Comic-Con previewMarvel Avengers Doomsday Hall H expectationsMarvel's Wolverine deep dive at Comic-ConDC Batman Caped Crusader Lanterns and Pan's Labyrinth programmingThe VelociPastor II Comic-Con double feature previewMike Flanagan Carrie series for Prime VideoAmerican Horror Story Season 13 franchise reunionJurassic Park trivia in honor of Sam NeillInterview Jesse Gouldsberry joins the showThe VelociPastor origin fake title college short and G4VelociPastor II budget sequel pressure and DIY chaosFake Australian trailer voice and VFX car on firePrague church premiere and San Diego Comic-Con screeningRoadshow plans streaming rights and future VelociPastor ideasOutro + Doom Scrolling OutroThe Foobar Show, VelociPastor II, Jesse Gouldsberry, VelociPastor interview, San Diego Comic-Con 2026, Avengers Doomsday, Marvel's Wolverine, Batman Caped Crusader, Lanterns DC, Mike Flanagan Carrie, Stephen King, American Horror Story Season 13, Jurassic Park trivia, Sam Neill, grindhouse comedy, cult movie sequel

According to Deadline's sources, Michael Waldron, who has written a number of MCU projects including Loki and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, as well as the first treatment of the never-to-be Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, is developing the script for a Nova feature film. Waldron is currently on the Avengers: Doomsday writing team with Steven McFeely and a Nova focused TV or film project has long been rumored to be in the works for Marvel; Last week Warner Bros and Legendary released the official trailer for Dune: Part Three, the seemingly epic conclusion to Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of Frank Herbet's fundamental sci-fi source material. The trailer, like the teasers before it, depicts the conflict situated around the rise and fall of Timothee Chalamet's warmongering, would-be messiah, Paul Atriedes, while showcasing the star-studded cast of newcomers, and returning characters in more ways than one. Dune: Part Three has yet to waiver from its December debut coinciding with Avengers: Doomsday; The post-Supergirl DCU has been the subject of much consternation and the latest pieces of news coming from the studio and franchise do little to change the tunes on either side of the chorusline. First, Jimmy Tatro is reportedly in talks to voice Gorilla Grodd in the Jimmy Olsen TV spinoff series that is supposedly titled DC Crime. Elsewhere, Deadline sources claim Xolo Marideuna is set to suit up as the Blue Beetle once more in Man of Tomorrow, the sequel to 2025's Superman.Avengers: Doomsday tickets go on sale July 20, and the early sale announcement comes with a confirmed runtime of 165 minutes. Julianne Nicholson joins Season 2 of HBO's Task, reprising her Emmy-winning Mare of Easttown role as Lori Ross and officially placing the two shows in the same universe. Prime Video released first look images at Carrie, Mike Flanagan's series adaptation of the Stephen King novel, coming this fall. Paramount has closed a deal for U.S. rights to Wes Craven's original A Nightmare on Elm Street screenplay, with plans to adapt it into a new feature. Sam Neill, star of Jurassic Park, The Piano, and In the Mouth of Madness, has died at 78. The live-action Moana opened to $95 million worldwide, well under projections, with Deadline reporting the film stands to lose $100-125 million. Warner Bros. dropped the first trailer for Digger, Alejandro G. Iñárritu's film starring Tom Cruise as oil baron Digger Rockwell, in theaters October 2. The M3GAN spinoff Soulm8te is skipping theaters after being pulled from Universal's calendar and heads straight to digital on August 1. The 2026 Emmy nominations were announced last week and are led by HBO Max's The Pitt with 25 nominations, narrowly ahead of the final season of Hacks with 24, making them the clear frontrunners heading into September's ceremony. The first trailer arrived for Buddy, Casper Kelly's horror comedy starring Cristin Milioti and Keegan-Michael Key, hitting theaters August 28.New Line's The Conuring prequel The Conjuring: First Communion has cast Garrett Wareing and Amanda Fix in lead roles. The pair will play young versions of franchise characters Ed and Lorraine Warren.A coalition of a dozen states on Monday sued to block Paramount Skydance's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, posing a new challenge to the $110 billion deal that would unite two of the nation's largest media companies.

Dan is joined by honorary co-host Mike Schulte for a loose, funny, and surprisingly useful conversation about what happens when cover bands stop getting treated like “just the local guys” and start operating like the professional entertainment businesses they actually are.Mike shares the long-game story of a hometown festival, a shady gatekeeper, years of being told to play for “exposure,” and the eventual full-circle moment of returning to that same town to play for 10,000 people on a proper stage with proper production.From there, the conversation turns into a bigger discussion about building a real following: why being good is only the starting line, how fans become regulars, why personality matters as much as polish, and how bands can create moments people actually want to come back for.Also: kitchen renovation horror stories, hidden house weirdness, horror movies, Mike Flanagan, kids discovering music, and a few current songs that are absolutely destroying in live sets.This one is about playing the long game, staying human, and remembering that the audience connects with people—not just perfect performances.Check out Mike's podcast! https://confusedbreakfast.com/ Sweetwater Affilate Link: https://sweetwater.sjv.io/xJE4rk BACTrack Affiliate Link: https://www.bactrack.com/coverbandconfidential MaestroDMX (10% off discount link): https://maestrodmx.com/discount/DISCOUNT4CBC?redirect=%2Fproducts%2FmaestrodmxBlank Contracts & Riders: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/store/performance-contractsBacking Track Resources: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/store/backing-track-resourcesThank you so much for tuning in!

2018's The Haunting of Hill House was a game changer for Netflix, Mike Flanagan, and for genre storytelling. Flanagan already had success in the feature film realm with Oculus, Hush, and Ouija: Origin of Evil, just to name a few, but Hill House was the type of hit that sent his career soaring, and paved the way to four more series with Netflix. Every single one of those shows was a feat in genre storytelling. They made Netflix a go-to destination for high-quality horror, and also amplified the fact that horror is a genre with range and significant substance. Yes, there are jump scares, blood and gore, but you can also tell a deeply human horror story that can be both bone chilling and soulful.After 2023's The Fall of the House of Usher, Flanagan's run with Netflix came to an end and off he went to Amazon MGM Studios where he signed an exclusive multi-year TV pact. Three years later, Netflix found a creator capable of filling the Flanagan void. It's Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen's Haley Z. Boston. And the success of her eight-episode limited series isn't only sending her star soaring. It also confirms that star Camila Morrone is and should continue to be a genre star.With Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen currently enjoying a position in Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows in the US, Morrone sat down for a Collider Ladies Night interview to discuss her collaboration with Boston, and also to talk about her first go-around in the horror genre. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
