Front Row Filmed Entertainment has acquired global distribution rights for anthology film Disorder exploring Lebanon’s recent tumultuous years through the eyes of four directors.

The picture, which is due to premiere at Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival later this month, brings together Lebanese writers and directors Lucien Bourjeily (Heaven Without People), Bane Fakih (Keep It Together), Wissam Charaf, and Areej Mahmoud (Beirut 6:07).

The launch comes as the global spotlight is on Lebanon due to the flare-up in the conflict between Israel and Shiite Muslim political party and militant group Hezbollah, which has resulted in close to 2,000 deaths, and also displaced more than 350,000 people over the last two weeks.

The feature is curated and produced Bechara Mouzannar under the banner of Unbranded, in collaboration with Nadine Labaki and Khaled Mouzanar who take executive producer credits. The trio previously collaborated on Labaki’s 2018 film Capernaum

Dubai-based Front Row Filmed Entertainment has secured world rights to Disorder, an anthology feature that explores Lebanon’s recent tumultuous years.

Blending drama and dark humour, the film comprises four shorts – The Group, Motherland, Don’t Panic, and A Piece of Heaven – directly respectively by Lucien Bourjeily, Bane Fakih, Wissam Charaf, and Areej Mahmoud.

Curated and produced by Bechara Mouzannar through his Beirut-based outfit Unbranded, the film is executive produced by Lebanese director and actress Nadine Labaki of Cannes award-winner Capernaum.

The film is set to premiere out of competition at Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival (Oct 24-Nov 1).

Dubai-based distributor Front Row Filmed Entertainment has acquired world rights to anthology film “Disorder,” which depicts different aspects of Lebanon’s recent turbulence and the toll taken by the country’s disarray on its new generations.

The timely portmanteau film comprises four shorts helmed by prominent Lebanese writers and directors: Lucien Bourjeili (“Heaven Without People”), Bane Fakih (“Keep It Together”), Wissam Charaf and Areej Mahmoud (“Beirut 6:07”).

The shorts, titled “The Group,” “Motherland,” “Don’t Panic” and “A Piece of Heaven,” feature top Lebanese talents such as Manal Issa (“The Swimmers”), Rodrigue Sleiman (“The Traveller”), Farah Shaer (“Heaven Without People”) and Hanane Hajj Ali (“Bab El Shams”).

“Disorder” will world premiere out-of-competition at Egypt’s upcoming El Gouna Film Festival.

Cemetery of Terror – AMC+, Shudder

Rubén Galindo Jr.’s most prominent horror feature is the American-influenced Don’t Panic (available on Shudder), but the Halloween-centric Cemetery of Terror offers the most fun. A trio of college kids decides to impress their ladies by stealing a body from a morgue for a Halloween prank and party in an abandoned house.

You never know who will join Chris Martin onstage at a Coldplay concert! During the group’s show in Zurich Sunday, tennis legend Roger Federer joined the band to play the shaker during “Don’t Panic.”

Martin welcomed the tennis star onstage as “our original band member,” jokingly referring to a percussionist who joined the band but left after three months at the beginning of the band’s career.

“The band is back together,” he quipped before they performed the opening track on the group’s 2000 album Parachutes.

Dont Panic Feat.

Wondery is launching Don’t Panic, a weekly comedy podcast offering coping mechanisms and survival advice for life’s worst-case scenarios. Each episode will feature a vivid soundscape to make it sound scary, while comedian and host Anthony Atamanuik explains how to withstand each dilemma. Atamaniuk says that staying alive in the most ridiculous situations is what keeps him up at night.

While the titular sharks steal the spotlight in Meg 2: The Trench, there are plenty of recognizable stars in the movie's cast, including returning icons Jason Statham and Cliff Curtis and exciting new additions like Wu Jing and Skyler Samuels. When it was released in 2018, The Meg was a surprise hit with audiences, grossing more than $530 million worldwide (via Box Office Mojo), so a sequel was a no-brainer. This time, instead of contending with just one megalodon — and later an even bigger one — like Statham did in the first movie, Meg 2 sees him taking on a bunch of megalodons as they begin hunting in packs.

Based on Steve Alten’s 1999 novel The Trench, which is the second installment of his Meg series, the sequel was written by the returning trio of Jon Hoeber, Erich Hoeber, and Dean Georgaris. Replacing the original's director, Jon Turteltaub, and making his big-budget blockbuster debut,...

Shudder’s annual “Halfway to Halloween” celebration, marking the halfway point to horror’s favorite holiday, features a killer lineup of original films and series this month. The premium streaming service for horror, thriller and the supernatural will debut a new season of the popular horror anthology Slasher: Ripper, starring Eric McCormack, a new season of The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs, a The Boulet Brothers’ Halfway to Halloween Special, the Shudder Original film From Black, starring Anna Camp, the streaming debut of Kids vs. Aliens and new additions to Shudder’s library of the best in horror.

Shudder Original films, series and library highlights are detailed below in premiere order:

Slasher: Ripper

Two-Episode Season Premiere Thursday, April 6

Slasher: Ripper takes the Slasher franchise back in time to the late 19th century and stars Eric McCormack (Will & Grace) as Basil Garvey, a charismatic tycoon whose success is only rivaled by his ruthlessness,...

Zach Braff's 2004 coming-of-quarter-age film "Garden State" was met with warm acceptance upon its release. The general critical consensus seemed to be that Braff took a lot of the insecurities and anxieties of being in your mid-20s, and spun it into a moody, soulful rendition for a new generation.

Shortly after its release, however, "Garden State" was held up as an ur example of an unfortunate emerging character type: The Manic Pixie Dream Girl. The actual phrase was coined by critic Nathan Rabin in his description of Cameron Crowe's 2005 film "Elizabethtown," reviewed in his book "My Year of Flops." The Mpdg character was a seemingly perfect, often impish and energetic female, usually written specifically to drag a mopey male character out of the doldrums of their own personal drama. They were a therapist, a love object, and a prize all at once, and the character type was appearing with increasing ubiquity.

If the new release slate is any indication, this Halloween season will be massive for horror. That doesn’t even begin to cover the library title additions to the plethora of streaming services available.

September brings home brand new releases, underseen classics, wacky cult gems, and more to add to your Halloween viewing watchlists.

Here are ten noteworthy horror titles available for streaming in September 2022 on some of the most popular streaming services, along with when/where you can watch them.

The Ring Two (Extended Version) – September 1 (HBO Max)

The Naomi Watts-starring remake of Goodnight Mommy is headed to Prime Video on September 16. Ahead of its debut, catch up with Watts in the sequel to the 2002 remake, The Ring. The Ring Two picks up months after the first film’s events, with Samara again targeting Rachel’s son. HBO Max offers the extended cut of this sequel.

We’re All Going to The World’s Fair...

After viewing horror for decades (watch yer tongue), it just dawned on me how little truck international pictures – especially low budget horror – hold for purity of subgenre. Case in point: Mexico’s Cemetery of Terror (1985); a film set up as a Halloween clone, except Michael is a serial killer Satanist, and then it becomes a zombie film, and a kid’s flick that’s also really gory. All this, and Hugo Stiglitz to boot! They’re not wrong, of course; why have less genres when you can have more? It’s also stupidly fun.

Released in July Stateside with a homeland release the following December, Cemetery of Terror all but came and went, and I don’t even remember this thing in video stores.

But enough about VHS statistics from the ‘80s; let’s talk about this ultimately somewhat unique batfuckery of a film: As every horror should, we open...

Happy Monday, dear readers! We have one last group of horror and sci-fi home media releases arriving before we say goodbye to January, and I hope your wallets are prepared for just how many killer releases are heading home this weekend, because there’s a lot of great titles that are arriving this Tuesday.

In terms of new genre projects, Synchronic from Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead as well as Come Play are both headed to Blu-ray and DVD, and if the release of the Godzilla vs. Kong trailer this weekend got you hyped for some kaiju action, Arrow Video is showing some love to Gamera this week with two different limited edition sets: Gamera: The Heisei Era and Gamera: The Showa Era. Arrow has also put together one of my most anticipated home media releases ever, a brand-new two-disc special edition set for Southland Tales and Vinegar Syndrome is...

Los Angeles public broadcaster Kcet has confirmed the episodic lineup for its 21st annual “Fine Cut Festival,” which features short films from Southern California student filmmakers.

Finalists will air on Kcet every Wednesday at 10 p.m. starting Sept. 30, followed by every Thursday at 11 p.m. nationally on LinkTV, starting Oct. 1. Over 400 films were submitted during May and June from filmmakers enrolled in 40 Southern California schools; finalists were chosen in the categories of documentary, animation and narrative shorts (under 25 minutes).

Winners in each of the three categories will be announced during a pre-taped virtual awards ceremony event on Sept. 29. Prizes are valued at between $2,500 and $10,000, with one student also selected for The Jack Larson Southern California Student Filmmaker Award — which sends them to the American Pavilion Emerging Filmmaker showcase at the Cannes International Film Festival next May (pending travel restrictions).

Finalists and winners in each category were chosen by judges including...

No doubt it's good to be the Prince's fiancée, but Meghan Markle still won't get special treatment when it comes to becoming a citizen in the United Kingdom ... TMZ has learned. Prince Harry's betrothed announced she intends to apply to be a legal Brit -- a process that can take up to 5 years for commoners. You'd think Meghan could get on some kinda Royal fam fast track, but Kensington Palace tells us no dice.

Ouch. That must have hurt. British reality TV star Gemma Collins took quite a tumble yesterday and fell through the stage at the BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards. Collins had just finished announcing the winner for Best TV Show at Wembley Stadium when she slipped through an opening in the stage. The Only Way Is Essex star posted the whole incident on Instagram. Thankfully, Collins was Ok. The TV personality posted another video letting fans know that she survived the "best and worst moment of her life." "I'm alive. Don't panic," she said at one point in the video. "I'm such a Bridget Jones at heart. I've always watched her movies and thought, God this girl is me. I'm at Wembley...

Since my all-time favorite TV series is  "The Honeymooners", the legendary sitcom that was originally broadcast in 1950s, one might think I would have been overjoyed at the prospect of seeing the show's new incarnation as a big-budget musical production that just premiered at the prestigious Papermill Playhouse in Millburn, New Jersey, a venue so revered that it was honored with a special Tony award. In reality, I had considerable trepidation about seeing the show. The characters in the TV series- bus driver Ralph Kramden, his devoted but long-suffering wife Alice and their best friends, sewer worker Ed Norton and his wife Trixie- have been ingrained in the minds of every American baby boomer. In fact, the re-runs have rarely left the New York airwaves even sixty years after their original airings and the four main cast members- Jackie Gleason, Audrey Meadows, Art Carney and Joyce Randolph...

Talk about starting off with a bang! CBS has issued a full season one order to its new Young Sheldon TV show. A prequel to The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon just premiered on Monday, September 25th. The Tiffany Network has not released an updated count, but it should be in the neighborhood of 22 episodes. Don't panic if you don't see it on the air, for a while. The first season of Young Sheldon is scheduled to resume in November. A single-camera comedy, Young Sheldon stars Iain Armitage as Sheldon Cooper. The CBS cast also includes Zoe Perry, Lance Barber, Annie Potts, Montana Jordan, and Raegan Revord, with Jim Parsons narrating. The sitcom kicks off in 1989 and centers on the title character, when he was just a nine-year-old boy, surviving childhood in an East...

Ahead of the season 13 premiere on The CW, Supernatural stars Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, and Misha Collins are talking about how the long-running drama series should end. Don't panic, Supernatural hasn't been cancelled, and no end date has been announced. Previously, we reported Padalecki, Ackles, and co-showrunner Robert Singer would like to take the TV series to 300 episodes, which would happen midway into season 14. The Supernatural season 12 finale was the 264th episode. From creator Eric Kripke, the Supernatural TV show first premiered on the now defunct network, The WB, on September 13, 2005. Season 13 will premiere on The CW on Thursday, October 12, 2017, at 8:00pm Et/Pt. Mark Pellegrino also stars. The new season will feature a backdoor pilot for Wayward Sisters, a potential spinoff starring Kim Rhodes as...

Is Wolverine getting old? Think of this renegade, genre-defying chapter in the film franchise as X-Men: The Aarp Years. Don't panic: Logan is a hard-ass, R-rated rager that explodes with action. But what makes it indelibly raw and touching is the sight of mutant heroes raging against the dying of the light. The year is 2029, and the X-Men have gone the way of the T-Rex. No mutant births have been recorded for 25 years. The artist formerly known as Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) is now a boozer who limps, wears glasses...

Star Wars, Terminator 2, Fantastic Beasts and more: they all have scenes in the trailer, that never made the final film...

More often than you might think, scenes that appear in movie trailer don’t turn up in the finished film. This can leave trailer-loving audience members confused as the credits roll, wondering if they dropped off and missed something important.

A couple of massive movies have done this recently, and the internet has been quick to fill in the blanks with speculation. Fingers have been pointed at tinkering studio bigwigs and extensive reshoots, when the reality is often a little less dramatic: filmmakers always chop some footage in the edit, and they rarely have much involvement in the trailers.

Kim Kardashian West's Paris robbery may have gone down very differently than you've heard.

The hotel concierge who was held at gunpoint alongside the 36-year-old reality star spoke to Et's Jennifer Peros about what happened inside the No Address Hotel the night of Oct. 3.

In his first on-camera interview since the incident, Abdulrahman makes claims that contradict the media reporting and speculation that followed the shocking robbery.

Despite immediate assumptions that the Paris robbery was deliberately orchestrated against Kim, Abdulrahman says that the gunmen appeared interested in all of the hotel's celebrity clientele.

"Who is in the hotel?" Abdulrahman says the robbers asked, adding he would not give specific names despite "some important persons" residing there. In addition...

The Five Deadly Venoms is a martial arts classic, that comes with one of the best opening sequences we've seen...

You don't need to do much more than whisper "I had five pupils..." to send shivers up the spines of most martial arts fans. It's a line that kicks off one of the most dazzling opening sequences in the history of cinema, as the dying Master of the Poison Clan explains to his sixth and final pupil that there were five more before him, each trained in a unique fighting style.

The Five Deadly Venoms wear masks that hide their identity and represent their particular style. There's the Centipede, the Snake, the Scorpion, the Lizard and the Toad, and the ways in which they fight draw from each animal's characteristics. As the Master explains, Centipede and Snake know one another's identity, as do Lizard and Toad. None of the others know Scorpion.

The new take on Dad's Army gives a standout role to Toby Jones. Here's our review of the new comedy.

Don't panic! Oliver Parker's big screen version of classic British sitcom Dad's Army (48 years old this year) is remarkably faithful to Jimmy Perry and David Croft's much-loved original and by no means the travesty that some had feared. It benefits chiefly from a note-perfect cast and a warm glow of reverential nostalgia that pervades the entire project, but it's slightly let down by a meandering script and the playing-it-safe comedy moments tend to generate amused smiles rather than out-and-out laughter.

Set in 1944, in the fictional seaside town of Walmington-on-Sea, the film stars Toby Jones as Captain Mainwaring, the leader of an elderly platoon of the Home Guard that comprises Oxford-educated Sergeant Wilson (Bill Nighy), doddery Private Godfrey (Michael Gambon), excitable Lance Corporal Jones (Tom Courtenay...

Don't panic. Moesha just premiered 20 Years Ago. That's all. At least Brandy pretty much looks the same now as she did when she played the titular teen, which is also why it's such a mind-boggle when you realize how long ago the multifaceted Upn sitcom—one of the network's biggest all-time hits—was on the air. Upn is no more (remember when Buffy and friends made the move to the brand-new CW?) but fond memories of the smart show that wasn't afraid to tackle some serious issues—drugs, teen sex and pregnancy, race relations and more—live on. And going through the archives, we couldn't help but be tickled when we saw all the familiar faces who were such big deals...

Don't panic! Your first look at BBC Two's upcoming Dad's Army origins drama is here.

We're Doomed! The Dad's Army Story tells of the struggles creators Jimmy Perry and David Croft had to endure to get the classic comedy on screen.

The stills show Friday Night Dinner's Paul Ritter and Game of Thrones actor Richard Dormer as Perry and Croft, respectively, and John Sessions as a dead ringer for Arthur Lowe.

EastEnders star Shane Richie will play Bill Pertwee in the one-off film, with the rest of the Dad's Army actors portrayed by Julian Sands (as John Le Mesurier), Mark Heap (as Clive Dunn), Kevin Bishop (as James Beck), Michael Cochrane (as Arnold Ridley) and Ralph Riach (as John Laurie).

Meanwhile, Keith Allen will appear as TV executive Paul Fox and Sally Phillips will play Croft's wife Ann.

The drama has been written by Stephen Russell (Shameless) and...

To celebrate the movie's release on Digital HD and Disney Movies Anywhere Oct. 13 and on Blu-ray Combo Pack Nov. 3, E! News was given an exclusive behind the scenes look at its creation.

UKTV ratings roundup - data supplied by Barb

The Great British Bake Off may have suffered a dip in the ratings due to the live Coronation Street episode on ITV, but it remained top of the pack on Wednesday night.

The BBC One show's average overnight audience was 8.37 million (34.6%) at 8pm - down by around 1.6m from last week. However, it peaked at 9.25m during its last 15 minutes.

Later, Doctor Foster continued to prove popular with 5.59m (26.5%) viewers at 9pm.

On ITV, new drama Midwinter of the Spirit thrilled 1.94m (9.3%) at 9pm (212k/1.5% on +1).

Much of last night's programmes saw low ratings due to the Bake Off/Corrie battle. On BBC Two, Don't Panic - How to End Extreme Poverty in 15 Years brought in 436k (1.8%) at 8pm, followed by The Ascent of Woman with 446k (2.1%) at 9pm.

A recent Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision is good news for filmmakers who want to rely on the fair use doctrine to include materials in their own work without obtaining permission.  Stephanie Lenz is a mom who posted a 29-second amateur video onto YouTube (see above) of her children dancing in her kitchen while the Prince song "Let's Go Crazy" played in the background. The song was audible for about 20 seconds.

Kardashian exes, unite?

Kourtney Kardashian's estranged partner Scott Disick and Khloé Kardashian's former boyfriend French Montana could have a collaboration in the works.

Music video director Carlos Suarez shared an Instagram on Thursday of Disick, 32, shirtless except for a fur coat in front of camera equipment, and he tagged rapper Montana, 30, in the post.

"Watching Play Back with @letthelordbewithyou @frenchmontana," he captioned the behind-the-scenes snapshot.

Of course, loyal Keeping Up with the Kardashians viewers should remember that Disick was supposed to star in Montana's "Don't Panic" video alongside Khloé, 31, before bailing at the last minute – and the Kourtney & Khloé...

Don't panic, Made in Chelsea fans - Spencer Matthews might not be quitting the show after all.

Reports last week claimed that mischievous Spencer would exit the E4 reality series to star in his own show.

But when Digital Spy spoke to Spenny's no.1 boi Jamie Laing, he told us that he doesn't think the rumours are true.

"I don't think Spenny's going - I don't know where that came from," Jamie said. "He's my best buddy and he hasn't mentioned anything to me.

"There's always talk about people going. Someone says it, and then it spreads like wildfire."

The next series of Made in Chelsea will be down two of its stars though, with both Andy Jordan and Stevie Johnson leaving the series.

Jamie is staying put though, telling us that he has no plans to leave: "I would never say, 'I'm quitting - that's it, I'm done with it!

Given his behavior on this week's episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, it's no surprise that Scott Disick checked into rehab a few months later.

While girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian was 37 weeks pregnant with their third child, Disick accompanied Kris Jenner to her 59th birthday bash at 1 Oak in Las Vegas.

Before they left for the event, Jenner admitted that she was "worried" about Disick: "He always gets into a bunch of trouble. My biggest fear is he takes 12 steps backwards and really falls off the wagon."

"You're going to have three little children at home very soon, under the age of 5," Jenner told Disick.

Sure, the Super Bowl is first and foremost a sporting event, the battle of the top two teams in the NFL.

But it's also the one day you actually want to watch commercials. (Because seriously, who can resist that Budweiser puppy?) It's a time to fearlessly gorge yourself on greasy food and beer. And this year, it's also the perfect opportunity to star-gaze as Katy Perry performs and Hollywood's hottest celebs cheer on their favorite teams.

As the New England Patriots prepare to face off against the Seattle Seahawks in Phoenix, People is bringing you inside access, from the tastiest...

The Super Bowl is no longer about supporting the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots; it's about supporting Chris Evans (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) or Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy)! Don't panic though, they won't be suiting up and sqauring off just yet... The two Marvel Studios actors have been trash talking each other on Twitter, with their friendship put on hold until one of their beloved teams are crownded the champions two weeks from now. It was Pratt who upped the stakes however, with a bet made which will see the loser visit a children's hospital in the winning city decked out in their superhero garb And the opposing team's shirt. Of course, this does seem a little unfair to the winning city, and I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised to see the actors visit both the Seattle Children’s Hospital and Christopher’s...

Things will go wrong on an indie film set. As a producer, or anyone in a leadership role, the key to solving problems is: Don't Panic! This was pivotal for me as a new producer on the set of "Tar Pit" (2015). Potential disasters came at me a mile a minute, but recalling this simple rule allowed me to move (most of) them swiftly aside—even on that day in June of 2014 when we shot "Tar Pit"'s last gun battle at an absolutely revolting pig farm and slaughtering field deep in the country of northern New York state. Hot, dusty air carried the stink of rotting pig carcasses over junked trailers, over putrid milk feeding troughs, over masses of hogs, living and dead. It was a location that director and seasoned indie filmmaker, the brilliant J. Christian Ingvordsen, had arranged for our crime drama. Our gifted Dp and screenwriter Matthew Howe was unfazed.

It seems like just yesterday I laid out my favorite gown, lovingly shaved my legs (all the way up to my eyebrows) and proceeded to bronze myself in places I never knew existed (all with the help of a selfie stick).

News: Et's Full Golden Globes Coverage

The year was 2014, the night was the Golden Globes, the time... 6 a.m.? And then it hit me: Not only hadn't I been nominated, I hadn't even been invited to the after-parties. I hadn't even been able to snag a table at my favorite bar known as the Cheesecake Factory where I could sit alone with a glass of Kim Crawford and loudly comment on the proceedings to everyone's delight. (Oh, and they...

Following a short-lived reunion, Keeping Up with the Kardashians star Khloé Kardashian and French Montana are once again officially "done," a source confirms to People. The pair first began dating in the spring, keeping the romance low-key until Kardashian's 30th birthday when Montana was glued to her side at her belated celebration at Tao Las Vegas. Over the summer, Kardashian starred in his music video for "Don't Panic," and their romance was filmed in front of Khloe and Kourtney Take the Hamptons cameras. Though the pair split in September, there were no hard feelings - Montana just "wasn't the perfect fit for her,...

This Sunday's brand new Kourtney & Khloé Take The Hamptons is going to be an episode for the books! Not only is Kourtney Kardashian revealing the sex of her new baby, but BFFs Khloé Kardashian and Scott Disick get into a huge, screaming argument.  In the above sneak peek, French Montana is shooting his music video for "Don't Panic" which is supposed to star Khloé and Scott.  However when Scott isn't on time, French has his team call him, only to find out he's decided not to come! That probably would have been useful information to share, Scott... French and Khloé are understandably frustrated in the clip, especially because...
