Predator: Badlands is one of my favorite movies of the year, because it also encourages us to fight our dads.

Actual icon. The modern horror landscape wouldn't be the same without her, not to mention her outstanding work across many other genres. In many ways, it's wild that her last name was Hill, because she moved mountains.
Happy Birthday to the late Debra Hill, co-creator of Halloween (she was raised in Haddonfield, NJ) and the force behind such sleepover classics as Clue, Adventures in Babysitting, The Dead Zone and Big Top Pee-Wee.

I hate having to do this but I’m desperate. I’ve been looking everyday for work but nothing is biting. I’m down $80 and I can’t afford my very needed meds and I definitely can’t afford my home when the first comes next month. I’m drowning in medical debt. Anything helps.

ICYMI #PredatorBadlands is the kind of audacious, whip-smart blockbuster filmmaking that we desperately need these days, where the unique vision of someone who obviously loves making movies is allowed to make the damn film.

PREDATOR: BADLANDS Review: The Unlikely Return of the Buddy Action Flick
Dan Trachtenberg's new film deepens the Yautja lore as well as the franchise's themes. With PREDATOR: BADLANDS, he's three for three.

A man from my hometown was killed because a TikTokker was live streaming while driving (with her kids in her car, no less) and it’s looking like the police only learned about the livestream because someone who saw it happen posted about it on Reddit after noticing it wasn’t in the news reports.

I'm having a hard time placing my WICKED: FOR GOOD review, so to the masses I go: I have forgotten more about the play and novel than most people will ever know to begin with, and I would be a huge asset to your outlet.
I'll happily pub on my own, of course, but being paid is also nice!

I did pageants from age 4 until age 20 (surprise to those who didn't know considering what I look like now) and I cannot appropriately express how OBSESSED I am with this being her choice for talent. Like, yeah, it's cool as hell, but this is SO unheard of in this space.

Is THE BRADY BUNCH MOVIE one of the funniest movies of the last 30 years?
Yes. Yes it is.
Yes. Yes it is.
NEW EP: THE BRADY BUNCH MOVIE
MARICA, MARCIA, MARCIA!! 30 years ago, Hollywood lovingly spoofed THE BRADY BUNCH and gave us one of the great cult-hits of the decade. To sweeten the deal, the film is also centered on the quintessential middle child, Jan Brady.
Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

I didn't pick the headline, so yes, I know that YOU, dear reader, remember these films. I'm talking about the average jabronis who aren't cool like us.
Anyway, had the chance to gush about some of my favorite films from the '70s that deserve more love.
