So, the rumours were true. The Avengers 4 trailer has landed, and it’s brought with it the official name for the Avengers: Infinity War (opens in new tab) sequel, as well as an even earlier release date of May 3, 2019. Damn. Say hello to Avengers: Endgame – yes, that’s …

Hip-hop musician turned filmmaker Boots Riley makes a confident writing/directing debut with this riotous blend of comedy, satire, and sci-fi, in which a telemarketer discovers the key to success. Tackling race, capitalism, and wage slavery with a ribald insouciance, the results start hilarious and segue into outlandish before becoming increasingly …

The Walking Dead’s mid-season finales tend to be about as consistent as the show itself. They can be as shocking and impactful as season 2’s Pretty Much Dead Already, or as scattershot and unearned as season 8’s How It’s Gotta Be. The Walking Dead season 9 (opens in new tab)’s …

What would horror movies be without their death scenes? Whether fiendishly creative, shockingly unexpected, or just explosively gory, these cinematic kills are the lifeblood (ahem) of the genre. Of course, all of us are inclined to think that we’re smarter than the hapless victims of these violent episodes. “Don’t go …

It may not seem like it, but we may well have just watched the last full episode of The Walking Dead with Rick Grimes present from start to finish. Since the release of The Walking Dead season 9, episode 3 (opens in new tab) last week, AMC has now confirmed …

It’s hard to believe that Michael Myers (or ‘The Shape’ as he is also known) has been embedded in pop culture for 40 years – and yet no single filmmaker seems to know exactly what to do with the mysterious masked marauder. By Halloween 2 (1981) it was revealed Myers …
