Top of the mornin’ to you! It may not be St. Patrick’s Day, but it’s never a bad time to watch Leprechaun movies, and we here at Arrow in the Head decided to go back over the whole Leprechaun franchise to rank them from worst to first. The Leprechaun Movies Ranked list can be seen below – check it out and let us know how you would rank the movies!

Leprechaun: Origins (2014)

This is appalling. Director Zach Lipovsky, writer Harris Wilkinson, and WWE Studios were given the chance to make a new Leprechaun movie, they cast a professional wrestler (Dylan “Hornswoggle” Postl) as the title character, and then they just churned out a dull monster movie. I don’t know how anyone involved thought this was a good idea (“You know what we should do? Take everything people liked about Leprechaun and remove it!”) or how Leprechaun: Origins made it through production.

Last year, Charles Band’s company Full Moon announced that they were launching a new production label called Pulp Noir, which would focus on “edgier, weirder, darker horror and dark fantasy films.” Two Pulp Noir movies, Quadrant and Death Streamer, have since made their way through production – and while those movies were initially released in color, all of the Pulp Noir movies will also get black & white “noir” releases, so there are both color and black & white versions of Quadrant and Death Streamer available on the Full Moon Features streaming service. While we wait for more Pulp Noir movies to be made, Band has started going through the Full Moon library to give some of their older films the black & white / noir treatment. This noir series, which is expected to consist of at least a dozen films, got started with a black & white version of the 1984 sci-fi thriller Christmas classic Trancers.

Horror franchises can be a goldmine for studios and theaters alike. They are typically on the inexpensive side to make and typically bring back not only a good profit but also more than enough to keep churning them out. Even straight to video franchises like what Hellraiser became or the Puppet Master and other monster collaborations from Full Moon continue to get made and sought out by fans. While we have the newer mainstays like Insidious, The Purge, and the recently up in the air Saw franchises, the classics continue to try and even pass between rights holders to get new looks. One of the most surprising franchises that somehow became a slasher mainstay has two big anniversaries this year. Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III is fun, and I plan to dissect that closer to Thanksgiving for its 35th anniversary but the more controversial Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation is 30 now,...

Subspecies 4: Bloodstorm will be released on Blu-ray on October 14 via Full Moon Features.

The 1998 installment in the Gothic vampire franchise has been remastered in high definition from the best available sources.

The most savage vampire masters of all time have returned from their unholy resting places to battle for possession of the all-powerful Bloodstone. Among them is the evil Radu, whose rebirth also sees him setting his sights on bloody revenge against those who have betrayed him.

A day after the 2025 Emmy nominations were announced, Gold Derby is unveiling our first snapshot of winner predictions in the 26 categories to be presented live on CBS on Sept. 14. A caveat: This data is based on initial polling of our experts, editors, and users; expect the races to vacillate and tighten as we collect more input and get closer to the ceremony.

Comedy

For the comedy genre, The Studio is expected to win three of the seven top races: Best Comedy Series, Best Comedy Actor (Seth Rogen), and Best Comedy Directing ("The Oner"). Apple TV+'s new show made Emmys history with 23 nominations, the most ever for a freshman outing. Rival series Hacks, which won the series race last year, is also out front in three categories: Best Comedy Actress, Best Comedy Supporting Actress, and Best Comedy Writing ("A Slippery Slope"). Finally, Shrinking is poised to get on the board...

The 2025 Humanitas Prize nominations have been announced, once again honoring television and film writers who masterfully explore the depth of the human experience. This year’s awards will be presented at a Sept. 7 ceremony in Hollywood hosted by actress and comedian Fortune Feimster.

On the TV side, drama nominees include Emmy contenders The Pitt, The Last of Us, The Handmaid's Tale, and Brilliant Minds. Comedy contenders include The Studio, The Pradeeps of Pittsburgh, A Man on the Inside, and Clean Slate. Limited series being honored include Dying for Sex, Interior Chinatown, Lockerbie: A Search for Truth, and Say Nothing.

In the film categories, last year's Oscar contenders Conclave, Nickel Boys, and Sing Sing will battle it out for Best Drama Feature, while Dìdi (弟弟), My Old Ass, and A Real Pain compete in comedy. Inside Out 2, Out of My Mind, and The Wild Robot are nominated for Best Family Feature.

The Humanitas org has revealed nominations for this year’s Humanitas Prizes, which will reveal winners at Avalon Hollywood on Sept. 7, hosted by actress/writer/comedian Fortune Feimster. Among the nominees on the TV side are “The Pitt,” “The Last of Us” and “The Studio,” while film nods include “Inside Out 2” and “The Nickel Boys.”

Also announced on Wednesday: Gina Prince-Bythewood will join Mara Brock Akil in presenting Lena Waithe with one of Humanitas’ top honors, the Voice for Change Award. As Variety first revealed in May, Waithe was chosen for this year’s prize because it “honors those who have created or championed visionary and courageous storytelling.”

A nonprofit that seeks to “honor and empower writers of film and television exploring the human experience,” Humanitas last year honored projects including “Hacks,” “Fellow Travelers,” “Black Cake” and Ava DuVernay‘s “Origin.”

The Humanitas Prizes are for film and television...

A few months back, we heard that Full Moon founder Charles Band was gearing up to shoot a paranormal romance called The Lost Girl’s Private Diary in Italy – but either the title or plans changed along the way, because on the latest episode of his YouTube show Full Moon Universe, Band revealed that he has just wrapped filming a thriller called Dungeons of Ecstasy in Italy. He also mentioned that Full Moon will soon be heading into production on movies called Prompt and Models vs. Werewolves!

Speaking about Dungeons of Ecstasy while sharing some behind-the-scenes video and footage from the movie, Band said, “I got back a week ago from Italy, where I had a fantastic time shooting a really cool show called Dungeons of Ecstasy. I think the title kind of sums it up, but what’s different about this feature is I shot it both as a...

The general audience may not have been familiar with this Marvel Comics character, but there was interest in bringing him to the screen. The adaptation passed from company to company, Richard Roundtree and L.L. Cool J were considered for the lead role. David Fincher was one of the directors who signed on, then dropped out. But eventually, it all came together in the right way at the right time, helping usher in a golden age of Marvel film adaptations. How could a lesser-known character have such a successful film? Let’s dig into it and find out What Happened to Blade.

Created by writer Marv Wolfman and penciller Gene Colan, Blade debuted in the comic book The Tomb of Dracula in 1973. Becoming one of the rare Black superheroes at the time. A vampire bit his mother while she was in labor, leaving him immune to vampire bites but still able...

Stars: Sam Hennings, Andrea Roth, Dane Witherspoon, Bernard Kates, Holly Fields, John Mooney, Anne Betancourt | Written by Charles Band, Jackson Barr | Directed by Peter Manoogian

Released during the high point in Full Moon’s relationship with Paramount Pictures, Seedpeople was heavily advertised on its original UK release back in 1992, with ads appearing in many of the horror magazines of the period – including full page ads on the back and inside cover of The Dark Side (which ran for months on end I recall). The film itself wasn’t as successful as the other notable franchises in the Full Moon stable, with many reviews at the time noting that the film was a rip-off of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and essentially that’s what the movie is: a tongue-in-cheek alien invasion flick that echoes the feel of low-budget sci-fi flicks of the 1950s.

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between.

It’s a day to celebrate! We discuss the legend Maggie Cheung! Our B-Sides include Lost Romance (a.k.a. Story of Rose), Full Moon in New York, Green Snake, and Sausalito. Our esteemed guest for this episode is Nick Newman, host of the Emulsion podcast for The Film Stage.

We talk about the Hong Kong New Wave, Maggie’s aborted performance in Inglourious Basterds, the true B-Sidey-Ness of Sausalito, and Maggie Cheung’s brief, lovely, recent Sight and Sound interview.

There’s also Nick’s Sight and Sound List, that GQ piece, Julia Ormond’s tackling a famous Audrey Hepburn role, and Nick’s great interview with filmmaker Olivier Assayas back in 2022.

By 2004, at the young age of forty, Cheung retired from acting.

Last week, we shared the news that Full Moon is bringing their 1992 film Bad Channels and 1990 film Crash and Burn to Blu-ray, with copies available through their site FullMoonHorror.com and available for pre-order on Amazon. (Links can be found in our article.) Now, we have more Full Moon Blu-ray news to share, as the company will be giving director Albert Pyun‘s 1993 sci-fi horror film Arcade a Blu-ray release on July 15th! Copies can be pre-ordered through Amazon at This Link.

Directed by Pyun from a screenplay by David S. Goyer (and a story by Full Moon founder Charles Band), Arcade has the following synopsis: All the kids in town are dying to play the hot new video game “Arcade”. Trouble is once you play the game you can kiss reality good-bye. Arcade has seven levels of excitement, adventure, and terror for its players. The game transports you to...

A couple of things that we’ve covered on the channel at length are the works of Howard Phillips Lovecraft and the films of gone too soon writer and director Stuart Gordon. For Lovecraft, we have looked at everything from behind-the-scenes drama on The Curse to the accuracy and differences of literary adaptations like The Resurrected. We have given Gordon his time in the sun as well, with deep looks at both his movie Dolls and his Poe adaptation of The Pit and the Pendulum. These two titans have also intersected more than a few times with Gordon making movies out of Lovecraft stories like Dagon and Castle Freak and, most famously and something we have covered on more than a few occasions, Re-Animator. Lost in the shuffle is a collaboration of these two greats that may be the greatest achievement that nobody talks about. From Beyond takes a lot of the elements,...

A little over a year ago, we learned that Alexander Skarsgard of Succession, The Legend of Tarzan, and The Northman had signed on to star in the ten-episode sci-fi series Murderbot, which is set up at Apple TV+. It was recently announced that the show is going to make its global premiere on Apple TV+ with the first two episodes on Friday, May 16, followed by new episodes every Friday through July 11 – and now, with the premiere just one month away, a trailer for the show has dropped online. You can check it out in the embed above.

The sibling duo of Chris and Paul Weitz (About a Boy) are writing, directing, and executive producing Murderbot under their Depth of Field banner. Andrew Miano is also executive producing for Depth of Field, while David S. Goyer executive produces alongside Keith Levine for Phantom Four. Wells is on board as consulting producer.

If you search for Full Moon movies on Amazon, you’ll find that the music-fueled alien invasion madness of Bad Channels and the sci-fi thrills of Crash and Burn are coming to Blu-ray, with release dates of June 10th. But while those Blu-rays are available for pre-order on Amazon (you can pre-order Bad Channels at This Link for $24.99 and Crash and Burn at This Link for $24.95), Full Moon is already selling copies directly on their website FullMoonHorror.com! Bad Channels can be purchased Here and Crash and Burn Here, both for $24.95.

Directed by Ted Nicolaou from a screenplay by Jack Canson, Bad Channels was originally released in 1992 and has the following synopsis: There’s a hip new disc jockey at Kdul, Superstation 66, and he’s about to make rock and roll history. He’s Dangerous Dan O’Dare, the most controversial DJ to hit the airwaves and he’s changing...

It’s been almost six years since Suits fans last saw Harvey Specter on screen, and no, those T-Mobile commercials don’t count. But with this Sunday’s episode of the spinoff Suits LA, viewers got a new dose of Gabriel Macht’s charismatic lawyer in a very different context.

Just as creator Aaron Korsh previewed to TVLine, Harvey appeared without any storytelling fanfare during a mid-episode flashback to Ted’s time in New York in 2010, when he was trying to take down mobster Pellegrini. The case was weighing on Ted so much that his pitches kept striking the batter...

Over the decades, Carlos Santana has collaborated with jazz legends (Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter), rock guitarists (Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan), blues greats (Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker), R&b singers (Smokey Robinson, Lauryn Hill), and even country artists (Willie Nelson, Faith Hill). The results were sometimes worldwide hits like “Smooth” (with Rob Thomas) or “Maria Maria” (with Wyclef Jean), but others fell between the cracks and never found the audience they deserved.

His new compilation album, Sentient (out March 28), tries to fix this by taking overlooked collaborations with Michael Jackson,...

The first C.H.U.D became a culturally relevant movie for multiple reasons and against all odds also worked its way into the greater pop culture zeitgeist. I argued that the first movie doesn’t quite stand the test of time a bit ago and while I stand by that, it doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy it either. C.H.U.D. II: Bud the C.H.U.D. is a wild ride of a sequel that certainly didn’t need to exist but is somehow more fun than the predecessor. Its also a better sequel in a franchise that it doesn’t technically exist in! Can’t wait to get into that aspect. Most of you love C.H.U.D. but I’m here to tell you why C.H.U.D. II is a great black sheep that straddles the end of the 80s and start to the 90s. I doubt I’ll sway anyone onto my side of...

Dragon Ballcovers a tremendous amount of ground from when it begins to Goku flying off with Uub. Goku experiences many changes from when he’s first introduced, many of which come in the form of powerful transformations. Dragon Ball is absolutely rich with forms and the series has reached a point where characters are beginning to develop unique, individualized final forms – from Orange Piccolo, to Black Frieza, and Gohan Beast.

Goku has undergone more transformations than the most Dragon Ball’s characters, but not all of his forms are aesthetically pleasing (to say the least). Power and practicality are obviously fundamental to battle, but Goku’s forms rank a little differently when visual flair and design are the primary concerns.

On Saturday February 15 2025, Disney broadcasts Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur!

Full Moon Season 2 Episode 18 Episode Summary

The upcoming episode of “Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur,” titled “Full Moon,” promises to be an exciting adventure. In this episode, Lunella and her friend Adria are set to enjoy a special bonding day together. This episode will focus on their friendship and the fun activities they have planned.

As the title suggests, the full moon might play a significant role in the story. Lunella and Adria could find themselves in unique situations as they explore their city under the glow of the moonlight. Fans of the show can expect a mix of humor, heartwarming moments, and perhaps some unexpected challenges along the way.

The episode will likely showcase Lunella’s intelligence and creativity as she navigates their day. With her trusty companion, Devil Dinosaur, by her side, viewers can anticipate some...

Stoner culture and horror movies go together like chips and queso—a match made in heaven (or perhaps hell). There’s something about the mind-expanding vibes of stoner humor mixed with the surreal, the gory, and the downright absurd that makes this subgenre irresistible. Whether it’s the paranoia of supernatural forces, the dark hilarity of a hapless stoner fighting demons, or the trippy visual stylings of a psychedelic horror trip, stoner horror films offer something uniquely enjoyable.

The appeal probably lies in the way these films can blend laughter and terror. Stoner protagonists are often laid-back, lovable underdogs thrust into insane scenarios, bringing an everyman charm that audiences root for. These films don’t just deliver scares—they also lean into the bizarre, often embracing wildly imaginative plots that break traditional horror conventions. With their mix of self-awareness, satire, and creative insanity, stoner horror movies are perfect for those...

In the upcoming episode of “Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur,” titled “Full Moon,” fans can look forward to a heartwarming adventure featuring Lunella and her friend Adria. This episode, airing on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at 10:30 Am on Disney, promises a delightful exploration of friendship and bonding.

Lunella and Adria have planned a special day together, aiming to strengthen their connection and create lasting memories. As they embark on their bonding day, viewers can expect fun activities and unexpected challenges that test their friendship. The dynamic between Lunella, a brilliant young genius, and Adria adds an exciting layer to the story, showcasing their unique personalities and how they complement each other.

The episode is sure to blend humor and heartfelt moments as Lunella and Adria navigate their day. With the backdrop of New York City and the ever-present excitement of superhero antics, “Full Moon” is poised to be a memorable installment in the series.

One of the most well-reviewed Marvel shows in recent memory is probably one many fans have not watched. Sporting a 100% rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur follows a 13-year-old girl named Lunella, a supergenius who accidentally brings a (very lovable) dinosaur into modern-day New York City. Together, they are a crime-fighting duo that has the rare combination of being incredibly cute but also very powerful. After being unceremoniously canceled last year, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur will be ending on its own terms with the back half of Season 2.

It's been a year since the second season first premiered on Disney+, but the streamer has finally announced when fans will be able to watch the last 10 episodes of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur (via The Direct). On Feb. 7, the final episodes of the animated series will be released on Disney+. Meanwhile, for those not subscribed to the streamer,...

Of the hundreds of pieces of entertainment Full Moon founder Charles Band has brought into the world, one of my favorites is the 1984 sci-fi thriller classic Trancers, which also happens to be one of my favorite Christmas movies. Now, Full Moon has revealed that they’ll be releasing a black & white version of Trancers, called Trancers Noir, on the Full Moon Features streaming service this Friday, February 7th!

Directed by Band from a screenplay by Danny Bilson and Paul De Meo, Trancers has the following synopsis: Welcome to Angel City, 2247. Trooper Jack Deth (Tim Thomerson) is wiping out the last disciples of Whistler, who used his psychic power to ‘trance’ those with inferior minds, forcing them to follow his every desire. Though he’d been thought dead, he’s very much alive… in the year 1985. Whistler’s master plan – kill the ancestors of the City Council. With the Council disbanded,...

Brandy will go back to the beginning in her forthcoming memoir, set for release on Oct. 7. The currently untitled project will span the life and career of the 45-year-old musician and actress who came to fame as a young teenager. “This memoir is more than a book,” Brandy wrote on Instagram. “It’s a reflection of resilience, hope, and rediscovering myself beyond the fame, the music and the spotlight.”

The book, which Brandy described as being “one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences of my life,” will be released by Hanover Square Press.

At its core, 9-1-1 is a gripping drama that expresses the trials and tribulations of the 118 crew of the Lafd. Each character has their own intimate backstory, giving this series a sense of depth and mystery that not many other procedurals can compete with. As such, while 9-1-1 may be criticized for its sometimes outlandish plotlines and arcs, fans still appreciate the show's dedication to keeping audiences on the very edge of their seats.

Yet, a lot of fans would agree that 9-1-1 is one of the funniest shows on air at the moment. Whether it's the banter between the firefighters or the latest ludicrous case, the show manages to effectively balance humor with over-the-top tension. So, it's fair to say that 9-1-1 works best when it's making fans laugh.

Charles Band’s company Full Moon has been delivering wild, crazy, entertaining films for over thirty-five years now – and last year, they launched a new production label called Pulp Noir, the idea being to focus on “edgier, weirder, darker horror and dark fantasy films.” So far, two Pulp Noir movies have made their way out into the world, Quadrant and Death Streamer, and on the new episode of his YouTube show Full Moon Universe, Band revealed that the third Pulp Noir movie, The Lost Girl’s Private Diary, is set to start filming at the end of February!

The Lost Girl’s Private Diary is a paranormal romance that Band describes as being in the vein of his 1990 movie Meridian. As with Meridian, Band will be directing this one himself, and here’s the official synopsis: Lily is a “Lost Girl”, a term given to those women that have been...

Back in October, Charles Band, founder of the legendary entertainment company Full Moon, will be hosting an event called Church of Chills Live!, a revival of the classic Full Moon Roadshow experience, at the Cleveland, Ohio church that Full Moon recently purchased. There was a screening at Death Streamer, plus appearances by special guests Andrew Divoff (the Wishmaster himself) and Dana DeLorenzo of Ash vs. Evil Dead, along with Robin Sydney, Full Moon’s own “First Lady.” Now, Band has announced that a second Church of Chills event will be held on April 5th! There will be a screening of the uncut version of the original Puppet Master at this event, and genre icon Barbara Crampton, who makes a cameo appearance in Puppet Master, will be one of the special guests! Diana Prince, a.k.a. Darcy the Mail Girl from The Last Drive-in with Joe Bob Briggs, will also be in attendance,...

This is the fictional story of five strangers picked to live in a house and have their lives taped to find out what happens when people stop being polite and start getting murdered… My Little Eye. And if you haven’t seen this one, it’s the Best Horror Movie You Never Saw.

Reality shows are nearly unavoidable these days, but back in the ‘90s they were still rare. Aside from MTV’s The Real World and episodes of Cops, we hadn’t been exposed to much reality programming yet. And when word started leaking out about the development of shows like Big Brother and Survivor, they sounded odd. A little twisted, potentially dangerous. Big Brother was offering the chance to watch its contestants on 24/7 live streams. Survivor was taking its contestants out to isolated locations and leaving them to provide basic survival necessities for themselves. While the concept of Big Brother just seemed weird,...

9-1-1 has shocked viewers with its intense twists and turns since it first premiered back in 2018. Complete with a team of alluring firefighters, the 118 crew have experienced their fair share of intense events, all of which add to the audience's entertainment. Thus, this vibrant and diverse firefighter drama has managed to keep fans hooked for years.

Ryan Murphy also adds a touch of hysteria to this show, which is similar to a lot of his other work. Thus, fans get to enjoy a whirlwind of drama and surprise, particularly when it comes to some of the cases. But some of these cases are so intense that fans can only bear to watch them once.

Batman has had a lot of great love interests over the years. While his two greatest love interests have always been antiheroes Catwoman and Talia al Ghul, there's another pairing that isn't talked about nearly enough - this time with a fellow superhero. Now, DC is finally bringing back the relationship in a terrifying new storyline.

In the preview pages for Batman: Full Moon #1 by Rodney Barnes and Stevan Subic, readers see Batman fighting off a gang of weapons dealers. But the surprising part is that Batman missed a date with Zatanna Zatara to do it. While the two characters have been romantic in the past, it's a surprising sight to see them again, as DC rarely touches on this romance.

This relationship has always been highly underrated, and it's great to see DC bringing it back, even if it's only for this one story. While Batman has had tons...
