Brendan Hines (OP note: I can already hear the collective "Who?" IDK some TV actor whose had bit parts on Scandal and Angel) answered the meme "What‘s something that seems obvious within your profession, but the general public seems to misunderstand?" that's been going around on twitter. While most of his answers were generic tweets about acting he did drop this tweet accusing James Corden of being a well known sexual predator.

Weekly Creepy News: Scariest horror movie masks, 5 genre films by women to watch this month, & more!

This week's creepy post explores what's new in paranormal pop culture and more!
Curated by myself and loglady

BOOKS & COMICS
This week we have Sherrilyn Kenyon discussing her cursed attempts at getting to Salem, Massachusetts; author Justina Ireland talks subverting the white gaze in her writing; a new supernatural series is launching at Dark Horse Comics; and filmmaker Haifaa Al-Monsour discusses her film Mary Shelley about the famous author.



Have you ever been to Salem, ONTD? Author Sherrilyn Kenyon almost didn’t make it there, and in the article she mentions all the bad things that got in the way of her visiting Salem. When she was finally able to visit, her and her son went to the Witch Museum and the memorials to the Witch Trials. Kenyon claims she’s traced family back to Salem: “We had family who accused family,” calling that “tragic.”



  • On being called “the most controversial figure in young adult literature" by Vulture magazine: “It’s pretty funny that in the age of male YA authors being accused of sexual assault that I would be considered controversial. I mean, my big claim to fame is criticizing a few books.”

  • Ireland is scared of horror and doesn’t consider Dread Nation to be horror.

  • Explaining what she means by “subvert[ing] the “white gaze” in publishing”:When we talk about publishing, we have to consider the gatekeepers, the folks who decide what makes it to the shelf at the front of the store, or who gets in the store in the first place. [...] They don’t necessarily have to write to center white identity, but there has to be a level of the narrative that white readers can connect with otherwise it will be very difficult to even get to the table.”

  • On taboos in writing:“[W]hile I would write an Asian or Latinx character, I would never write a story that deals with issues of identity. Those stories are better coming from authors with that lived experience.”

  • Ireland’s next book is Star Wars: Lando’s Luck, which will be the first book in the Flight of the Falcon series from LucasFilm Publishing.




  • Saudi Arabian filmmaker Haifaa Al-Mansour discusses her film, Mary Shelley, which tells the story of the author. Elle Fanning stars as the title character.

  • She read Frankenstein as a child in Arabic, and as an adult, when she read the script, began researching about Mary Shelley. She says it’s important to have female figures like Shelley, who did something different and succeeded.

  • The movie is not about the monster. She says Frankenstein is described as a “monster of piece of work”, but it’s actually about “a direct result of everything that happened to her life as a woman.” She says it was sad to know the monster and not Shelley, and criticizes the book considered “masculine.”

  • She discusses being ridiculed in Saudi Arabia as a woman trying to make films, and how that made her feel sympathetic to what Shelley went through.

  • The rest of the interview discusses other topics, including Shelley’s rebellious spirit and Al-Mansour says Shelley is not celebrated enough, working with a young cast and casting Percy.

  • The interview is less than 20 minutes long, definitely recommend listening to it.




  • A new supernatural horror series is being launched by Dark Horse Comics.

  • Christofer Emgård (Mirror’s Edge: Exordium) as writer; Tomás Aira (War Stories, Night of the Living Dead: Aftermath) is the artist.

  • Synopsis: Hannah Vance believed her faith in God could survive anything. But when her helicopter is shot down behind enemy lines, she will fight and kill on an ever more savage battlefield, desperate for a way home. On the horizon, an evil waits for her—and freedom, of a sort.

  • Issue #1 goes on sale on October 24.



SERIES & SHORTS
Happy #SciFiSunday! This week we have a short sci-fi film by Elan Dassani & Rajeev Dassani about synthetic humans and is available to watch online right now; and an interview with filmmaker Huriyyah Muhammad, who has created and directed the supernatural webseries Keloid.



  • Seam is a 20 minute short film, available to watch at the source, and is celebrated for its diverse, international cast.

  • Synopsis: After a sleeper agent explodes in Hong Kong, a synthetic woman named Ayana (Rakeen Saad) and her husband Yusef (Khaled Al Gwairi) are targeted by a human military commander (Oded Fehr). The desperate couple are pursued in a thrilling chase across the vast deserts of Jordan which culminates in a spectacular climax at the border of the synthetics' haven - a region known as the SEAM.

  • Seam is written and directed by Elan Dassani & Rajeev Dassani.

  • OP note:Seam is freaking awesome, if you are at all interested in sci-fi then you need to watch it. For a short film it was very impressive in terms of story, acting, cinematography and effects. The film is in 3 languages, but mostly Arabic, and has subtitles.





  • In the interview, Huriyyah Muhammad discusses how her love for writing brought her to filmmaking and ultimately to making Keloid, which is “a supernatural drama” web series about an atypical boy who has special powers such as telekinesis.

  • Keloid was created for the Black TV & Film Collective, a non-profit in NYC whose “mission is simply to increase opportunities for artists of color working in television, film and digital." It was produced “as a web-series because through web-series, producers have the ability to tell great stories with smaller budgets.” It cost 10K to produce the first season.

  • Muhammad also discusses casting the mother and son; how she wrote simply from experience; and more about the Black TV & Film Collective.

  • To watch the series please go to http://www.keloid.tv/.



GAMING
Survival horror is coming to your Xbox and PS4!



The survival horror game Monstrum, originally released for PC back in 2015, is now being brought to Xbox One and Playstation 4, both as a physical and digital release! No release date is set yet; game trailer at the source.



MUSIC
Do any songs come to mind when you think of iconic horror movie themes?




This article explains how and why iconic theme songs to horror films have become a thing of the past. Some notes:

  • The music industry itself has evolved.

  • It’s not as feasible to pull in well-known musicians to record theme songs as it once was.

  • There’s a cheesy level to spelling out the plot of a movie in a song, which is seen as nostalgic these days and wouldn’t hold up in serious movies.


Be sure to read the whole article at the source!! It also lists some of the best theme songs to 80s and 90s horror films with tidbits for each song!



TELEVISION
Swedish sci-fi actress Moa Gammel recently revealed that Netflix is interested in adapting her podcast, Ufopodden. More information under the cut!



  • Gammel is working on the pilot along with Inger Scharis, “using the UFO archive at Norrköping.” The show will be a supernatural drama.

  • On her interest in UFOs, she says. “I’m a UFO agnostic. These mysteries, these phenomena that defy any natural explanations, are extremely fascinating.”

  • If you are interested in her UFO podcast, the second season was just launched on July 3rd on Sveriges Radio P3.



FILM

Women of horror: Interview with Gigi Saul Guerrero


  • In this interview, Mexican-Canadian horror filmmaker Gigi Saul Guerrero discusses her nickname, “La Muneca del Terror” and the Luchagore Productions, of which she is co-founder and director.

  • She says that she has “stuck with Latin Horror over the years and it has really worked. It is not necessarily which target will get you most exposure, but instead which target understands you as an artist."

  • Her favorite film that she’s made is EL GIGANTE, which is also the goriest of all her films.

  • She also discusses the importance of festivals, saying that “EL GIGANTE is a prime example: A WB exec was watching at a festival, contacted us and suddenly, we made La Quinceañera for Warner Brothers. Filmmakers must go and/or submit to festivals as much as they can.”

  • She says if she has to die in a horror movie, she would pick dying like a “bruja”: “Burn at the stake and laugh at everybody!”

  • La Quinceañera is available to watch on the Studio Plus app, and is also being screened at the upcoming Fantasia Festival as a feature.

Disney inadvertently helped put a stop to Antman movie back in the 80s.

-Picture it: 1980s, New World Communications Group purchases Marvel Entertainment wanting to adapt the characters to the big screen.

-New World ends up producing a Punisher movie that fails so of course their next thought is to make an Antman movie thanks to Stan Lees input.

-Disney was in the process of making Teenie Weenies (later known as Honey I Shrunk The Kids) but New World planned on rushing Antman into production to beat Disney.

-New World runs into money issues and isn't able to beat Disney and not wanting to look like a copy cat they scrap Antman and sell the Marvel rights back to marvel.

Jimmy Fallon Keeps Telling the Same Joke Over and Over

0
0



Someone who noticed that Jimmy Fallon has told the same joke almost word-for-word at least seven different times on The Tonight Show made a mashup and posted it on Youtube.

In each instance, Fallon shows a tablet with a CAPTCHA on it and says “It’s one of those CAPTCHA things. You know those squiggly words you have to type in before you buy tickets to concerts and stuff?”

He then shows the CAPTCHA showing phrases like "myahole closes", “genital robberies,” or “ass head.”

Jimmy then turns to look at an imagined person behind him and says in an identical nasally voice, “Honey, I’m about to get those Katy Perry/One Direction/Taylor Swift/Frozen on Ice tickets you wanted. Don’t come in here!”

-Only 2 Black Women in the SW universe had major speaking roles. Kelly Marie Tran is also another WOC in the SW universe.
-About Kelly's social media deletion from the harassment by trolls: "The reason they’re getting pissed is because they’re losing, because things are changing, and they don’t like it."
-"This is human nature, to exploit. Especially in an industry like the film industry — people who want to exploit gravitate to it, you know?"
- "That’s what abuse does to you: It robs you of the desire to celebrate yourself, it robs you of your innocence. I stand up and I’m counted, and I let it go."
-She goes by in depth with it in her interview with SW, Westworld,& etc. which I highly recommend reading.

-"But there's something about delusions that are really helpful when you want to do stuff that seems impossible."
-"I think there's something about the energy of believing that something is real, about putting that energy out in the world. I didn't grow up in Hollywood, but from a young age I just believed it would happen."
-My parents came from nothing. They were both struggling at a young age to make something of themselves, and they both did. Maybe they infused in me that hustle mentality."
-Was an overachiever in high school, a Straight A student, president of student council & etc. -Went to New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and later suffered a stroke at age 20. "Things take on a different meaning when death comes so close."
-Says that'Parks & Rec' instilled the idea about caring for your community and your world.
-Says her character in Legion, Lenny Busker has given her new meaning in her life and the unpredictable route her character has in the show makes it fun for her.




-She showcased a new side to her in Legion (FX), she was always typecasted as a sardonic sidekick but really came into her own as an actor in that show.

The Strokes aren't playing a secret reunion show after all; chaos ensues

As a follow-up to this post where it was speculated that The Strokes would be playing a secret show in London... It's actually turned out to be fake news! And boy has it caused a shitshow.



-The venue, Dingwalls, was encouraging people to share the post on social media, saying max. 8 tickets per person, etc.
-They later posted that there was no reunion to be had - some "joker" had posted that, and they had nothing to do with it, despite it being on their social media outlets
-About 500-600 fans had started lining up for tickets, so Dingwalls tweeted, telling them to go home
-Dingwalls is now calling this "a hoax from a booking agent" but also speculating that a former employee is to blame
-The Strokes' manager, Ryan Gentles, even got involved, saying "nope, not us... no Strokes show at Dingwalls"
