Known for her captivating on-screen performances and undeniable charm, Julia Roberts has been a dominant force in the film industry for decades. With her rise to stardom, not only has her career and work attracted significant attention, but so has her life behind the scenes. Like many Hollywood stars, her romantic relationships and complicated family dynamics have been a subject of public fascination.

The Roberts family has been rooted in the entertainment business, with her parents being one-time actors and playwrights. Her older brother, Eric Roberts, was the first in the family to make it big in Hollywood.

Slayer are reigning once again, as the thrash legends played their first concert in five years on Sunday night (September 22nd) at Riot Fest in Chicago.

The headlining performance at Douglass Park featured a career-spanning, 20-song set that didn’t stray too far from Slayer’s setlists on their farewell tour in 2019.

Get Slayer Tickets Here

After kicking off with the ominous “South of Heaven,” the band immediately delved into Reign in Blood with a rendition of deep cut “Reborn” — the first performance of the song since 2014. From there, each era of Slayer was represented, highlighted by staples such as “Repentless,” “Seasons in the Abyss,” “Hell Awaits,” and “213” (for the first time since 1998).

A final four-song volley ended the set climatically: “Mandatory Suicide” into “Raining Blood,” “Black Magic,” and a finale of “Angel of Death.”

The Slayer reunion marches on with two more 2024 festival appearances at Louder Than Life in Louisville,...

The number of Hollywood feuds is practically unfathomable, and it's not always easy to keep up with the latest beef. Though problems often arise between co-stars when the cameras turn off, disagreements have been known to happen between directors and actors. The tabloids had a field day with Julia Roberts and Kiefer Sutherland during their notorious relationship, a distraction that caused a lot of tension on Steven Spielberg's Hook set in 1991. Spielberg accused Roberts of poor behavior on set, but it's almost hard to imagine when looking back at both of their careers because neither of them seems to have endured any further instances of that nature since.

These types of feuds are notorious, however, with one of the most well-known being the heated tensions that flared between Kramer vs. Kramer costars Dustin Hoffman and Meryl Streep. Hoffman a noted Method actor verbally and physically harassed Streep, later confessing...

Carlin Glynn, who won a Tony Award in 1979 for originating the role of madam Mona Stangley in “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,” died July 13 at age 83. Her daughter, “Fried Green Tomatoes” actress Mary Stuart Masterson, announced the news on Instagram.

“On Thursday, July 13, my mother, Carlin Glynn Masterson, passed away. I was with her. I will always be grateful for those last moments, no matter how hard,” Masterson wrote on Sunday. She told the New York Times on Thursday that her mother had been battling lung cancer and dementia.

She remembered her mother as “strong, smart, silly, intuitive, kind, generous, passionate and a deep listener” who was devoted to her late husband, Peter Materson and “the enormous circle of students and collaborators who were considered her chosen family.”

Masterson shared a photo of Glynn from her 80th birthday party, “before the worst of dementia and cancer took their toll.

Carlin Glynn, who won a Tony Award for her performance as the madam Mona Stangley in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and had strong supporting turns in the films Sixteen Candles and The Trip to Bountiful, has died. She was 83.

Glynn died July 13, her daughter, actress Mary Stuart Masterson (Fried Green Tomatoes, Benny & Joon), announced in an Instagram post. She died in upstate New York, and the cause was lung cancer.

“My mother, Carlin Glynn Masterson, passed away. I was with her. I will always be grateful for those last moments, no matter how hard,” she wrote. “Death is like birth in the oddest way. From my first breath to her last. This thread is as fragile as it is strong.

Mexican actor Sergio Calderon has sadly passed away. Reportedly, per Entertainment Weekly, Calderon died on Wednesday at a hospital in Los Angeles while surrounded by family. He had been in the hospital recently while battling pneumonia, but Calderon's rep says that it's not known if that was the cause of death. Calderon was 77 years old.

Calderon was a veteran actor with dozens of credits on the big and small screen. He is perhaps best known for his role at Captain Vallenueva in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, the third installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean series. He would reprise his role by voicing the character in the video game adaptation. Calderon would sometimes post about the movie on his Twitter account, sharing behind-the-scenes photos with co-stars like Johnny Depp and Keith Richards.

Judd Bernard, the producer and screenwriter behind films such as “Point Blank” and “Double Trouble,” died Jan. 25 in Burbank, Calif., his family confirmed to Variety. He was 94.

This July, 1984 Publishing will be releasing the official soundtrack to 1984's Children of the Corn! With plans for a vinyl LP, along with cassette and CD editions, we have details on the new release and a look at the artwork from “Ghoulish” Gary Pullin:

Cleveland, Oh — At the time of its release in 1984, parents and critics alike were outraged at the pack of killer kids featured in Stephen King’s Children of the Corn.

Rolling Stone magazine: “Seven months before The Terminator hit theaters, Linda Hamilton was being terrorized by a completely different menacing force: A nightmarish cavalcade of creepily angelic tykes causing unspeakable horrors amidst the vast, empty stretches of the Midwest.”

Naturally, the film has become a bona fide ‘80s horror cult classic and spawned many sequels.

The horror master himself John Carpenter is back with new music. Carpenter is best known as the iconic director behind such horror classics as Halloween, The Thing and They Live. He's also an accomplished and celebrated musician. Carpenter has been more focused on his music in recent years, and these two tracks represent his first offerings since collaborating on the Halloween reboot score in 2018.

Peter Masterson, an actor, director, producer and writer best known for co-writing the Tony-winning play “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,” has died. He was 84.

Masterson, who suffered from Parkinson’s disease for 14 years, collapsed at his home in Kinderhook, New York, on Tuesday just before 6 p.m. and could not be revived, his daughter Mary Stuart Masterson told TheWrap.

“The best of me comes from the best of him,” Stuart Masterson told TheWrap. “He was an historian, a thinker, a tough son-of-a-gun (he never complained once about his plight with Parkinson’s), and kinder and funnier with a handful of words than it seemed possible. He was a world class sailor and raced in regatta around the world into his 70s.”

The Grand Experiment

He said I alone can solve it all:

The Mexicans will take the fall,Rapists and murderers one and all. I'll keep them out with a beautiful wall.

He claimed Muslims on the Jersey ShoreCheered 9/11 with a roar.So he proposed to even the scoreBy turning away refugees from our door.

He picked off his rivals one by oneWith insults from his verbal gun.A playground bully in his roots;Now some of the vanquished lick his boots.

Party leaders professed surprise;But said not a word as they saw him rise.Their fifty-year history brought us here:Filled with whispered expletives like nigger, and queer.

They acted as if they didn't knowThat his campaign was a toxic showAnd didn't believe he’d continue to crowWhile eager crowds watched, faces aglow.

Now their surprise has turned to dismay,But the leaders still have little to say.

Jaws from James Bond

One movie character who scared me as a child was Jaws, the shiny-toothed James Bond villain. Those silver teeth freaked me out, big time – I remember the early sequence from The Spy Who Loved Me was particularly chilling: Jaws lures a defenceless older man into a trap, and proceeds to bite into his neck, killing him. While we're shown no violence, the whole scene terrified me: the way Jaws walked slowly towards the man in a knowing, menacing way, and the idea of him simply biting the man to death (though at least he had the courtesy to stun the victim first).

Being bitten by Jaws isn't like being bitten by a vampire – he drinks no blood. Instead, he just seems to sink those artificial teeth into flesh and tear a hole big enough to cause fatal bleeding. Whenever I'd watch that scene, it made me deeply uncomfortable,...

Blood Red Films and the filmmakers of Axeman 2: Overkill, the next installment in the 80’s throwback slasher franchise, are pleased to announce the cast of the film, which picks up the story where the original 2014 film Axeman left off.

This new chapter in the Axeman at Cutter’s Creek saga has the goal of being darker, grittier, and bloodier than the original.

The exciting cast of the film, which is written and directed by Joston “El Rey” Theney, includes an all new actor in the iconic villain role of Bill “The Axeman” Talbert. Playing the titular character is former three-time World Champion, WWE’s “Adam Bomb”/ WCW’s “Wrath,” also...

For me, AMC's The Walking Dead wouldn't be nearly as memorable without the amazing score by composer Bear McCreary, and next month zombie-loving vinyl fans will finally be able to add that soundtrack LP to their record collection, thanks to the efforts of indie record label Spacelab9. The deluxe edition soundtrack will be pressed in “Black Smoke” and “Blood Red” colored vinyl, with an additional short run of 200 units in “Zombie Flesh Green” also available exclusively from the Spacelab9 web shop (the earlier picture-disc version, shown below, is now sold out). The LP is packaged in a gatefold sleeve featuring full-color images from the series, and the first pressing will also include an 18x24” poster. The limited edition will hit stores April 15th, but you can preorder yours from Spacelab9 starting on April 1st. A short supply of turntable slipmats featuring original zombie art by Travis Pitts will also be...

Lily Collins is having a very big year. The 24-year-old is the star of highly anticipated movie The Mortal Instruments, recently rocked the cover of Glamour, and now has landed the coveted front page of Seventeen‘s September issue! We’re loving Lily’s look on the cover and what she has to say on the inside of the mag.

Lily Collins Makeup On ‘Seventeen’ Cover — Rocks The September Issue

Lily always looks great, so it’s no surprise that she looks like a million bucks on this Seventeen cover! We’re loving the over-sized red leopard-print sweater and the giant, layered multi-metal statement necklaces the petite actress is rocking!

But of course, we really love Lily’s beauty look!

The young actress turns heads with her dark brunette hair and strong eyebrows — she is such a classic beauty. That doesn’t mean, however, that she can’t go casual! She ran some errands sporting a super chic bun wrapped with an adorable head scarf! We love the look and think it’s a great summer trend to follow!

Lily Collins, 24, is getting ready to promote her new film The Mortal Instruments: City of Ashes at the Mall of America with her costar and boyfriend Jamie Campbell Bower, 24. Still, Lily finds time in her schedule to run some errands and she looks absolutely relaxed and beautiful with light makeup and an adorable accessory — a head scarf! Find out more about Lily’s summer hair trend and learn how you can join in!

Lily Collins’ Head Scarf — The Perfect Summer Accessory

On July 15, Lily stepped out to run some errands in Beverly Hills,...

Second and final part of our analysis of neo-noir classic The Grifters (1990, directed by Stephen Frears). Since the film’s costume designer Richard Hornung died in 1995, we asked his assistant costume designer on the project, Mark Bridges, for his own recollections (Part 1 Here).

We pick up the story as Lily (Angelica Huston) is confronted by her gangster employer Bobo (Pat Hingle). In fact we had a peek at Lily’s next outfit when she admits her son Roy (John Cusack) to hospital during the first act. It is a clean white scoop neck shift dress accessorised with tortoiseshell sunglasses and, seemingly without explanation, later a brown belt. White is an empty colour and on Lily it also implies loneliness and vulnerability, the latter of which she exudes during her conformation with Bobo. Proving that a dress is never just a dress on film, Mark Bridges explains the origins of this...

Lily Collins looks like she walked straight out of the 1960′s and onto the cover of ‘Glamour’! Check out how you can create this retro look for yourself!

Lily Collins, 24, posed on the cover of Glamour magazine’s July 2013 issue wearing a striking blue floral, strapless Dior top with a matching white floral Dior skirt. Her retro-inspired hair and makeup looks in the spread are flawless — learn how to recreate her timeless beauty below!

Lily Collins’ Makeup On ‘Glamour’ — Her Retro Cover Look

Lily’s long locks were transformed into a faux bob for her retro up-do. To get this look, first section the crown of your hair and tease it using a small comb. Pin this section back using bobby pins and spray with hair spray.

Divide the remainder of your hair into two sections, parting it down the middle, to the back of your head. Braid both sides,...

If we do nothing else here at FEARnet, we will make sure Dexter fans eat well.

What’s the perfect follow up to “Fried Eggs” ala Dexter? These bloody Dexter cupcakes. New York’s Magnolia Bakery (which is super delicious in case you’ve never been there) sliced and diced their classic red velvet cupcake recipe with pieces of candy broken glass and red syrup to create these cupcakes for the Season 7 Dexter premiere.

While the original Magnolia Bakery recipe is kept under wraps, buried deep inside their walls, we found several fans that were willing to sacrifice their hands to recreate this killer treat. The step-by-step recipe below is from domesticingenue.com, read the entire post here. The broken glass is surprisingly easy to make.

Ingredients

Cupcakes:

2 large eggs, room temperature

1 cup buttermilk, room temperature

1 1/2 cups vegetable oil

1 tablespoon cocoa powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

The 24-year-old actress discussed her beginnings as an actress in a new interview and revealed that one of her very first auditions was for ‘Twilight!’ Can you even imagine her as Bella?

In a new interview, Lily Collins admitted that while she was trying to get her acting career off the ground she actually auditioned for the role of Bella Swan in Twilight. Of course, she was beaten out by Kristen Stewart, but we wonder if Lily would have made an even better Bella!

Lily Collins Auditioned For Bella Swan

Lily told Crave, “Yeah, one of my first auditions actually was for Twilight which is really funny now thinking about it.” She definitely looks the part with her dark hair, red lips, and pale skin. However, it’s hard — no, impossible — to imagine anyone else but K-Stew caught up in a love triangle with Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.

She continued,...

I gave Lucio Fulci the hallowed God of Horror treatment and now it is time to give Herschell Gordon Lewis the Titan of Trash treatment. Herschell Gordon Lewis is a name that will conjure up many a smile on the face of trash fans. I first came across his films back in the 1980s when I was a child and I stayed up late. On Channel Four there was a show called The Incredibly Strange Film Show with Jonathan Ross interviewing Lewis about his work. They showed footage of The Wizard of Gore and I nearly crapped my pants (I was about 8/9 years old).

Over the years I found out more about The Godfather of Gore and his works and I fell in love with them – their shoddy direction, whacked out scores, 5th rate acting, outrageous gore and lunatic humour produce a heady brew which is infectious for lovers of...
