Clive Barker has gifted audiences with some of the most disturbing horror stories for over 40 years, both in his many works of fiction and his occasional forays onto screens both big and small. The British horror icon is best known for writing and directing Hellraiser, a screen adaptation of his novella The Hellbound Heart, which spawned a massively successful (though creatively dubious) franchise and a well-received reboot in 2022. Dismayed by poor adaptations of his previous work, Barker opted to direct the film himself, a relatively unprecedented move for a young writer at the time.
While Hellraiser is often in the conversation for best horror films of all time, Barker's two follow-ups as director failed to capture the same kind of attention. His second film, Nightbreed, flopped upon release, but has since come to be considered an underrated cult classic, receiving a director's cut re-release back in 2014. But his third film,...

The bond between siblings has been a longtime fascination for film and television shows, leading to some of the most famous brother and sister duos in film and television history. Those who think romance is the pinnacle of an interesting relationship need to look closer at these memorable bonds between sibling characters. Popular shows like Supernatural have a brother duo as their main characters, and one of Disney's biggest hits, Frozen, is all about the love between sisters rather than a princess and prince finding each other.
Besides brother and brother and sister with sister duos, though, there are also very memorable brother and sister characters at the heart of the best TV shows and movies ever. The relationships between siblings can lead to some unique storylines within television or movies. Whether it's being as protective as possible or having characters who wind each other up, there is something funny...

Whaaatt?!!
There were a few surprises on Secrets and Lies Season 2 Episode 8. There were also a few things that weren't much a surprise. That reveal at the end for instance.
We've all been pretty much super suspicious of John Warner, so that ending was more like confirmation than anything else. The real question is whether he is really the blackmailer. If he is the blackmailer than why?
The rest of the episode revolved around Eric, Patrick, Melanie, and flashbacks.
Things I'm not a fan of? Unnecessary flashbacks. There were so many of them in the episode, and to be honest, most of them served no real purpose for the plot or the narrative so it felt like a filler episode before the finale.
Did we need to see a flashback of Danny with his daughter when she was 10? No. Did we really need the flashback to up the young Warner children to up the angst?...

The confrontation between Jax (Charlie Hunnam) and Tara (Maggie Siff) on "Sons of Anarchy" was about as explosive as you might expect, though it wasn't Jax doing the yelling.
The episode starts with Tara waking to the sound of someone in her home. She goes to check on her young son, only to realize he's gone, so she freaks. When she realizes he's with Jax, it doesn't calm her nerves at all. Playing the peacemaker in the situation, for now at least, Jax says he's essentially moving out to clear his head so they can decide what to do. Not without the warning that she's being watched, though.
Meanwhile, Tara's allies are dropping like flies. She can no longer trust Lowen (Robin Weigert) or Wendy (Drea de Matteo), Unser (Dayton Callie) dropped her, and Margaret Murphy (McNally Sagal) is taking an extended vacation to get away from the insanity.
Finally losing her temper,...

With Jax (Charlie Hunnam) at a loss over how to fix his marriage to Tara (Maggie Siff) and as a crossroads with Samcro, "Sons of Anarchy" continues on in the next episode, "John 8:32." A promo for the episode shows some very interesting developments with both the club and Tara's faked miscarriage.
With D. A. Patterson (Cch Pounder) turning up the heat on Barosky (Peter Weller), the law is getting even closer to being able to pin the school shooting gun on the club, something they are doing everything they can to avoid. Perhaps that's why Jax is sitting down with Patterson, to direct her away from the club. At this point that's practically impossible, though.
Then there's Tara. Her lawyer is very open about the problems she could be facing if it's discovered that her pregnancy and miscarriage were all a ruse to extract Gemma (Katey Sagal) from her children's lives.

FX's brilliant biker drama "Sons of Anarchy" has ratcheted up the action and the heat is on Eire, as the Samcro gang are winging it sans papers to the Emerald Isle, in a bid to get back Jax's son and Gemma's grandson Abel. Now if you are following, the big reveal last week was that Jax has an Irish half-sister, and Gemma was one of the last to find out John Teller's naughty little secret. It didn't go down well. Tara (Maggie Siff) is now stepping up to the plate and is under more duress than ever, at least she has an ally with Gemma (Katey Sagal) and even the plucky hospital administrator, Margaret Murphy (McNally Sagal).

Even on the lam, Gemma (Katey Sagal) is still one cunning woman you don’t want to mess with. And, her protégé tough-as-nails Tara (Maggie Siff) isn’t that far off. Sons of Anarchy continued its adrenaline filled third season with Episode 2, “Oiled.” While Gemma deals with her father’s dementia, Jax (Charlie Hunnam) and Clay (Ron Perlman) are hard at work tracking down Cameron Hayes (Jamie McShane). “You trying to scare me?” Tara asks Jax. Try as he might, Tara is just one woman who ‘don’t scare so easy.’ She’s taking her position as girlfriend to the Samcro VP seriously by applying for a leave of absence from St. Thomas, while the Samcro continues the search for Abel. Surprisingly, St. Thomas’ chief administrator Margaret Murphy (McNally Sagal) would rather have Tara on staff; despite the facial bruise Tara dealt her in Season 2. Although we have yet to...
