The Black Doves season 1 finale, “In the Bleak Midwinter,” ties up all the loose storylines in a neat bow on top of a Christmas present.

After Sam (Ben Whishaw) is kidnapped by the Clarks at the end of episode 5, he wakes up in the same room as Kai-Min Chen (Isabella Wei) and Eleanor (Gabrielle Creevy). The Clarks are holding them hostage. Helen Webb (Keira Knightley) has a plan, though, because she’s seen the tape and knows what really happened!

Who killed the Chinese Ambassador?

On the tape that Jason Davies (Andrew Koji) hid for Helen Webb to find in the jewelry, it reveals that Trent Clark, the son and heir to the Clark family, who are basically shadow-controlling the British government, killed Ambassador Chen (Andy Cheung) on accident. He was at Kai-Ming’s apartment to bring her heroin, but the Chinse ambassador confronted Trent about supplying his daughter. In the scuffle,...

Aliens (November 1) Rotten Tomatoes Score: 94% Credit – 20th Century Fox

Aliens is a sci-fi action thriller drama film written and directed by James Cameron. The 1986 film is set in a dystopian future and it follows Ellen Ripley who is sent back to the planet Lv-426 to establish communication with a terraforming colony but when she gets there she is hunted by an Alien Queen who is out for her life. Aliens stars Sigourney Weaver,...

Two years ago, it was announced that Sam Claflin, who may be best known for playing Oswald Mosley on Peaky Blinders, Finnick Odair in the Hunger Games franchise, and Billy Dunne in Daisy Jones & the Six, had signed on to star in the supernatural thriller Bagman, from Hunger Games‘ home studio Lionsgate. The finished film received a theatrical release at the end of September, but it seems that few movie-goers noticed. Maybe Bagman will catch more attention now that horror fans will have the chance to watch it in their comfort of their own homes, as the film is set to receive a digital and VOD release this Friday, October 18th. It’s available for pre-order on Amazon, going for the price of $14.99.

Nine times out of ten, if a director has chosen to delete a specific scene from the film they're working on, it's for good reason. Other times, it comes at a cost. Pacing is a critical component of any movie, but sometimes, to increase the pace, filmmakers drop scenes that provide essential explanations for events transpiring in the film. It's in cases like these that deleting scenes can lead to confusing movie moments.

Thankfully, there's a solution to that in today's marketplace. It's called the home media market. True, deleted scenes aren't experiencing quite the Renaissance today that they did earlier this century. However, for those parties interested enough in searching them out, they're still often readily available in one form or another, and watching them might clarify some of your favorite films. Here are ten instances where deleted scenes went a long way toward explaining the otherwise unexplainable.

Why...

Aliens saw Ellen Ripley's transformation from Nostromo survivor to the franchise's battleborne heroine. Sigourney Weaver recalled she was so eager to film that sequel, until she read director James Cameron's script.

Ridley Scott's Alien offered the perfect premise for a sci-fi horror flick: a rogue Xenomorph stalks space truckers in cramped spaces. That film ended with one survivor flushing out the Xenomorph out of the airlock without firing a single bullet. Aliens cemented Ellen Ripley as one of pop culture's strongest protagonists; the sequel saw her team up with battle-tested marines to fend off hordes of Xenomorphs, this time with military-grade weapons. While speaking at a Venice Film Festival masterclass, Weaver revealed (via Variety) that the inclusion of guns was her main objection to the Aliens script. She reconsidered after director James Cameron revealed her character arc in the movie.

Durante siglos y en todas las culturas, los padres han advertido a sus hijos del legendario Hombre del Saco, que arrebata a niños inocentes y los mete en su vil bolsa podrida para no volver a verlos jamás. Patrick McKee (Claflin) escapó por los pelos de un encuentro semejante cuando era niño, que le dejó cicatrices duraderas durante toda su vida adulta. Ahora, el atormentador de la infancia de Patrick ha regresado, amenazando la seguridad de su esposa Karina (Thomas) y su hijo Jake.

In the dark horror film Bagman, a family finds themselves ensnared in a nightmare as they are hunted by a malevolent, mythical creature. For centuries and across cultures, parents have warned their children of the legendary Bagman, who snatches innocent children and stuffs them into his vile, rotting bag – never to be seen again. Patrick McKee (Sam Claflin) narrowly escaped such an encounter as a boy, which left him with lasting scars throughout his adulthood. Now, Patrick’s childhood tormentor has returned, threatening the safety of his wife Karina (Antonia Thomas) and son Jake (Caréll Rhoden).

Boogiemen come in all shapes and sizes. They hide beneath your bed, lurk in shadows, and patiently wait to devour you from the depths of your closet. Children try to avoid them at all costs, but now and then, one is so determined to sink its pointed teeth into your tasty meats that it’ll ignore every ward and warning to claim its prize. Today’s Bagman trailer features a sinister ghoul who snatches children and stuffs them into a haunted bag, like Krampus’s kleptomaniac cousin.

Alright, sweethearts, you heard the man and you know the drill. There have been plenty of documentaries about Aliens before, as anyone who has owned the beloved 1986 sci-fi sequel from James Cameron on its various formats can attest (some hardcore fans still insist the 1992 LaserDisc Special Edition release has never been bettered). But there has never been any documentary quite as extensive, expansive or exhaustive as Aliens Expanded, a title that lives heartily up to its name due to a near-five-hour runtime — not quite as long as an unusually long hypersleep, but not far off. It comes from writer-director Ian Nathan, who has literally written the book on the film.

As with 2019’s Memory: The Origins Of Alien, about Ridley Scott’s original film (also featuring contributions from Nathan), this aims to be the definitive take on a definitive genre classic. With a runtime like that, it is fair to...

Aliens Expanded is a comprehensive 4-hour, 42-minute documentary exploring the making of James Cameron's sci-fi classic, featuring interviews with prominent fans, experts, and cast members. The documentary is a treasure trove of love, delving into the film's fandom, production details, and cultural impact, making it a must-watch for Alien movie enthusiasts. Aliens Expanded is also a celebration of physical media.

38 years after the release of James Cameron's exceptional sci-fi, Ian Nathan's Aliens Expanded offers a documentary deep dive that is best described as abyss-like in scale. Working with CreatorVC, whose previous documentary offerings have always proved impressive, Nathan has created something that genuinely deserves to be called essential viewing for fans of the Alien movies.

Yaphet Kotto as Jean-Luc Picard? Wesley Snipes as Geordi? Jenny Agutter as Dr. Crusher?

Gene Roddenberry considered all of these actors for Star Trek: The Next Generation before casting Patrick Stewart, LeVar Burton, and Gates McFadden. However, the most surprising alternate idea for a Tng character involved Tasha Yar, the ill-fated security chief aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise.

The Tale of Macha Hernandez

The Tng series bible, released before the show premiered as a guide for writers and actors, describes Yar in terms similar, if not completely one-to-one, with the character we know from the series. “Born at a ‘failed’ Earth colony of renegades and other violent undesirables, she escaped to Earth in her teens and discovered Starfleet, which she still ‘worships’ today as the complete opposite of all the ugliness she once knew,” the description explains.

Science fiction houses some of the most creative and unique concepts and designs in film, especially when it comes to the idea of war and conquest. Whether it's alien invasion movies or space exploration that takes heroes to new worlds, many films and franchises showcase mighty, advanced militaries, both alien and futurist humans. These can make for some fun and exciting sci-fi war stories and often bring out the best in special effects and CGI.

Considering how many sci-fi franchises make use of themes like dictatorship, rebellion, and exploration, advanced militaries are key to survival in these universes. While some are elite units of grand, heroic armies, others are shown to be the foot soldiers of tyrants and invaders. All the same, these are a popular staple of science fiction, with the likes of Dennis Villeneuve's Dune recently showing some of the best of these fictitious fighting forces.

Alien: Romulus may resolve a major franchise mystery by explaining Gorman's use of the term "Xenomorph" in Aliens. The upcoming movie could clarify that "Xenomorph" is a catch-all term for aliens, dispelling confusion among fans. While focusing on survival horror, Alien: Romulus has the opportunity to address this long-standing misunderstanding within the series.

While Alien: Romulus has a plot of its own to focus on, the movie’s place in the series timeline means it could answer one major franchise mystery. 2024’s upcoming Alien: Romulus is almost guaranteed to annoy some longtime fans of the sci-fi horror franchise since the Alien movies are hardly known for their consistent lore. Both 2004’s Alien Vs Predator and 2012’s Prometheus offered conflicting, contradictory backstories for the original movie’s Weyland-Yutani Corporation, and there is no guarantee that Alien: Romulus will confirm either of these origin stories as part of the franchise’s knotty,...

Anya Chalotra of The Witcher, Chloe Cherry of Euphoria, and Ralph Ineson of The Witch star in the dark comedy Two Neighbors, which was able to secure a SAG interim agreement to film while the actors strike was still going on and wrapped production back in September. Although the story is set in New York, filming took place in the UK.

Marking the feature directorial debut of “multi-disciplinary artist” Ondine Viñao, who has exhibited video projects in the US and abroad, Two Neighbors was inspired by Aesop’s fable Avaricious and Envious. This take on the story shows what happens when Becky (Chalotra), an ambitious but struggling writer, is overcome by envy and spite when she meets Stacy (Cherry), a beautiful but insatiable socialite, at a lavish party hosted by Stacy’s father at their country estate.

The Witcher's Anya Chalotra and Euphoria's Chloe Cherry will star in the upcoming film Two Neighbors, which includes Green Knight's Ralph Ineson as part of its ensemble cast.

Per Deadline, Two Neighbors will tell the story of Chalotra's character, Becky, an ambitious but struggling writer, who is overcome by envy and spite when she meets Cherry's Stacy, a beautiful but insatiable socialite, at a lavish party hosted by Stacy's father at their country estate. The evening descends slowly into chaos, and the girls' lives change forever after the unexpected arrival of a modern-day genie (Ineson) who promises to grant their deepest, darkest wishes.

Movie sequels are expected to be more of the same. This was especially true when it came to the sequel's genre. If the preceding movie was a romantic-comedy, it stands to reason that any follow-ups would stick to the rom-com formula. This unspoken rule didn't stop certain movie sequels from changing genres.

A sequel changing genres was either a sign of its franchise's desperation to stay relevant and chase trends, or a genuine attempt by the filmmakers to do something new and daring. Not all sequels that changed genre succeed, but they still deserve credit and attention for coming up with the most unexpected ideas.

Spoilers ahead.

The original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a movie that was based on the build-up of tension, until it became unbearable for the audience, with an explosion of violence that many don’t forget. Made in 1974, it has had sequels, been remade in many forms through the years and Netflix are the latest to give an attempt to revamp the series with a follow up to the original. The question is, does it live up to the original?

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise is an odd one. There’s about four different timelines despite not that many movies, and although the quality has actually been good (for the most part), none have really got close to the sheer sense of terror that the first movie delivered. As always though, I was very much excited to see the latest movie.

This one is a direct sequel to the original movie and not linked to any other sequels that came before it. A new timeline altogether set in present-day almost fifty years after the original as Leatherface is once again disrupted by a new group of young friends and is soon getting to...

"50 years I've been waiting for this night... just to see him again." Netflix has fired up the gnarly official trailer for their new Texas Chain Saw Massacre film. It's officially titled Texas Chainsaw Massacre and will be streaming on Netflix starting this February. After nearly 50 years of hiding, Leatherface returns to terrorize a group of idealistic young friends that accidentally disrupt his carefully shielded world in a remote Texas town. Much like last year's Ghostbusters, this skips everything else and it plays as a direct sequel to Tobe Hooper's original 1974 Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Leatherface only gets angry when people come home. This sequel stars Elsie Fisher, Sarah Yarkin, Mark Burnham, Moe Dunford, Olwen Fouéré, Alice Krige, Jacob Latimore, Nell Hudson, Jessica Allain, Sam Douglas, William Hope, Jolyon Coy. Damn this looks brutal! The bus scene is going to be insane. Lots of blood and gore in here - watch out.

"In 2022, the face of madness returns." Netflix has surprisingly debuted the first look teaser trailer for the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre film, another sequel, out in February. This one is officially titled The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and will be streaming on Netflix starting in February of 2022. This project has been in development for a while, with the teaser poster (below) unveiled last year. After nearly 50 years of hiding, Leatherface returns to terrorize a group of idealistic young friends that accidentally disrupt his carefully shielded world in a remote Texas town. Much like this year's Ghostbusters, this is a direct sequel to Tobe Hooper's original 1974 The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Leatherface only gets angry when people come to his home.

Don't Breathe and Evil Dead director Fede Alvarez was busy promoting the upcoming Don't Breathe 2, directed by the original's co-writer Rodo Sayagues when he was asked about the supposedly terrible test screening of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot. The film picks up from where Tobe Hooper's iconic 1974 slasher, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, left. Texas Chainsaw Massacre has had a tumultuous production, with directors Andy and Ryan Tohill (The Dig) quitting after just one week into filming over creative differences with Legendary Pictures. David Blue Garcia (Tejano) was then hired to take over the directorial duties. The previously shot footage was discarded, and Garcia had to start from scratch. Although, Chris Thomas Devlin's original script is still used.

The troublesome production combined with a disgruntled netizen who attended an early test screening has resulted in rumors raising doubts about Texas Chainsaw Massacre's quality. Fede Alvarez, who recently attended https://www.

Keke Palmer and Pete Davidson are teaming up to not die in Audible’s new narrative podcast, “Hit Job.” And in the first clip below, you can hear how the two come to work together, which Olsen twin is the real entrepreneur, and how Pete Davidson’s character just wants to have friends.

The synopsis per Audible: “‘Hit Job’ follows Brynn Morris (Palmer), an aspiring artist desperate for a job to help her ailing grandmother. As a last resort, she takes a job as an administrative assistant at a company with the motto: “Do Bad Things for Good Reasons.” Joining forces with her awkward tech nerd of a coworker Geo (Davidson), she unexpectedly gets swept up in a company-wide contest that forces her to question her morals. Having a killer job suddenly takes on a whole new meaning.”

The upcoming Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot has officially been rated R. While this news is not exactly surprising, given the gritty nature of the horrific crimes committed by Leatherface and his family in every installment of the series, it can still be considered good news for fans concerned that it just might have gone PG-13. Per the MPAA, the movie is officially rated R for "strong bloody horror violence and gore, and language."

This news also seems to confirm that the official title for the reboot/sequel is simply Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It's a similar approach to the Halloween franchise, which titled the 2018 movie as simply Halloween as well, even though it served as a sequel to the original movie. That is also going to be the case with the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which will only acknowledge the first TCM movie and none of the other sequels. Like Halloween,...

Leatherface is finally coming back this year and horror fans have reason to be excited. As reported by https://bloody-disgusting.com/movie/3656136/texas-chainsaw-massacre-fede-alvarez-confirms-new-movie-sequel-old-man-leatherface-exclusive/|Bloody Disgusting, producer Fede Alvarez has confirmed that the upcoming Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot is actually a direct sequel to the original 1974 horror classic directed by Tobe Hooper. As Alravez tells it, this time around we are going to see what old man Leatherface looks like.

Horror fans will know Fede Alvarez from his work on movies such as Don't Breathe and 2013's Evil Dead. The filmmaker recently spoke with the outlet and, while he couldn't dive too deep into specifics, explained that they have indeed made a direct sequel. This means they are likely ignoring the events of previous sequels in the franchise, much like what was done with 2018's Halloween. And that worked out pretty well.

Then that ended up getting delayed, because the day they were meant to go into the studio, the world went into lockdown. So we wound up having to get recording equipment over to his place, and Dirk had to direct him over Zoom. Having said that, all these episodes that I'd heard in rough form with other people playing Morpheus hadn't worked."

Neil Gaiman then went...
