After wrapping up July with a Jan de Bont double feature discussing the movie magic of Twister (listen) and the laundry list of problems with his 1999 remake of The Haunting (listen), we’re tackled our first Alejandro Jodorowsky film with Santa Sangre (listen).

Now we’re back on American soil for our first Screenlife horror film on the Main Feed: Stephen Susco‘s Unfriended sequel, Unfriended: Dark Web (2018).

In the movie, Matias (Colin Woodell) shows up for virtual game night with a new laptop. As his friends – conspiracy nut Aj (Connor Del Rio), British Damon (Andrew Lees), harangued Lexx (Savira Windyani), and lesbian couple Nari (Betty Gabriel) and Serena (Rebecca Rittenhouse) – play Cards Against Humanity, Matias discovers hidden video files on the stolen computer.

The realization leads him to Charon (Douglas Tait) and Erica Dunne (Alexa Mansour), a missing 17 year old as Matias, his deaf girlfriend Amaya (Stephanie Nogueras...

We all know that Adam Sandler likes working with people he knows. The movies he produces with his production company Happy Madison regularly feature Kevin Nealon, Rob Schneider, and other cast members from his Saturday Night Live days. Many of his movies also feature supporting turns from guys you only see in Happy Madison flicks, like Alan Covert and Peter Dante. And, of course, he loves to cast Jennifer Aniston and Drew Barrymore as his love interests.

So it’s no surprise that Sandler’s latest Netflix movie You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzah sees him once again paired with Idina Menzel, who played his wife in Uncut Gems. But Sandler isn’t the star of You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah, a comedy based on the 2005 YA novel by Fiona Rosenbloom. Instead, it’s Sunny Sandler and Samantha Lorraine in the lead roles,...

Guests get more than they bargained for in the second season of Fox's Fantasy Island TV show. As we all know, Nielsen ratings play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Fantasy Island is cancelled or renewed for season three. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustrated when their viewing habits and opinions aren't considered, we invite you to rate all of the second season episodes of Fantasy Island here. *Status Update Below.

A Fox drama series, the Fantasy Island TV show is based on the 1977-84 series of the same name. This incarnation stars Roselyn Sánchez, Kiara Barnes, and John Gabriel Rodriquez, with Alexa Mansour recurring.

While Fantasy Island didn't generate big ratings in its first season, the reboot did pick up 60-75% more viewers in the live+7 day ratings. The Fox network's studio also co-produces the show and that means Fantasy Island generates some extra revenue for the company, which is important these days. Will this be enough to get Fantasy Island renewed for season three, or could it be cancelled? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.

I have to hand it to the writers here: they really surprised me. Repeatedly.

Fantasy Island Season 2 Episode 2 does an excellent bait-and-switch, subverting expectations and hitting us with not one but two significant developments for central characters.

From what could've been a hackneyed Mamma Mia premise, the Island works its usual magic and provides thoughtful insights for its guests and audience.

But let's start with the biggest and coolest reveal -- Ruby's in love with a Mermaid.

That's what we all assume, right? Isla, the gorgeous tattoo artist Ruby met on Fantasy Island Season 1 Episode 1, who inked her with the art that would open up the Island and a second chance at life to her, is a Mermaid.

Or some sort of Island spirit or nymph. I'm not going to debate semantics, but she's obviously supernatural. Ruby's basically immortal now, so a magical elemental partner may be the perfect match.

8/7c Reba McEntire’s The Hammer (Lifetime)

Everything’s better with Reba, and this is no exception when she stars as Kim Wheeler, one of the few traveling judges in America.

As you can guess, she’s a spitfire, and her district, ranging from Vegas to Reno, requires that energy when she’s the judge for cases that cover everything under the sun and then some.

Of course, she has to pull double the duty when her sister, a brothel house owner, becomes the primary suspect in the suspicious death of Kim’s predecessor.

Honestly, it's been a bleak television year without the presence of Roselyn Sanchez's Elena Roarke and Kiara Barnes's old soul sidekick, Ruby Akuda, welcoming us to the magical paradise of Fox's Fantasy Island.

But 2023 is already looking brighter as the show returns for its second season on January 2, and they hit the ground running with three guests learning new things about themselves and those closest to their hearts.

Meanwhile, both Roarke and Ruby's respective relationships have progressed since last we saw our hosts. Hot stuff!

The season premiere has the template double plotline, with two separate fantasies provided for two parties of guests visiting the Island. And we have familiar faces popping in as our stars of the week.

ABC has pulled out of its plans for Avalon. The series, from David E. Kelley, was given a straight-to-series order back in February and was intended to launch during the current 2022-23 season. Starring Neve Campbell, Demetrius Grosse, Alexa Mansour, Steven Pasquale, and Roslyn Ruff, the series is based on a short story by Michael Connelly.

The series takes place in the main city of Avalon on Catalina Island, where LA Sheriff Department Detective Nicole “Nic” Searcy (Campbell) heads up a small office. Catalina has a local population that serves more than 1 million tourists a year, and each day when the ferries arrive, hundreds of potential new stories enter the island. Detective Searcy is pulled into a career-defining mystery that will challenge everything she knows about herself and the island.

We learned back in August that Neve Campbell was set to lead the cast of ABC’s “Avalon,” a new mystery-drama series from David E. Kelley. The project was given a series order by ABC, but Variety reports the surprising news that “Avalon” is no longer moving forward.

Variety reports, “According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, ABC opted not to move forward with the series order for “Avalon” after screening the pilot. A+E Studios is said to still be bullish about the project and are weighing options on how to proceed.”

Based on Michael Connelly’s short story, “Avalon” is from A+E Studios and 20th Television. Demetrius Grosse, Alexa Mansour, Steven Pasquale, and Roslyn Ruff were also starring.

Deadline had detailed, “Avalon, which received a straight-to-series order from ABC, takes place in the city of Avalon on Catalina Island, where L.A. Sheriff’s Department Detective...

ABC has passed on David E. Kelley’s crime drama series Avalon, starring Neve Campbell, after it was handed a straight-to-series order in February.

The Disney-owned network is not moving forward with the project, which is based on a Michael Connelly short story, after it saw the pilot episode.

While unusual for a straight-to-series order, ABC does have an option not to take such shows forward after receiving the first cut, and obviously Disney is a part owner in A+E Studios, which was producing with 20th Television.

The move echoes ABC’s pass on the Alec Baldwin/Kelsey Grammer-fronted multi-cam comedy last year.

Deadline understands that A+E Networks will explore its options and attempt to sell it to another network or streamer. A+E Networks was successful in shopping one of its other Kelley projects, The Lincoln Lawyer, to Netflix after CBS passed, though that one ended in a lawsuit.

ABC has reversed course on the drama series “Avalon,” opting not to move forward with the show despite giving it a straight-to-series order in February.

“Avalon” hailed from David E. Kelley and executive producer Michael Connelly, with the show based on a short story that Connelly wrote. Neve Campbell was set to star in the lead role. Other cast members included Demetrius Grosse, Alexa Mansour, Steven Pasquale, and Roslyn Ruff.

Per the official logline, the show “takes place in the main city of Avalon on Catalina Island, where LA Sheriff Department Detective Nicole “Nic” Searcy (Campbell) heads up a small office. Catalina has a local population that serves more than 1 million tourists a year, and each day when the ferries arrive, hundreds of potential new stories enter the island. Detective Searcy is pulled into a career-defining mystery that will challenge everything she knows about herself and the island.”

ABC is scuttling its series Avalon, taking the series from David E. Kelley off its 2022-23 slate.

The drama, produced by A+E Studios and Disney’s 20th Television, was to have starred Neve Campbell as the L.A. Sheriff’s detective who leads a small office on Catalina Island off the Southern California coast. The show, based on a short story by Michael Connelly and created for television by the prolific Kelley, scored a straight to series order in February.

Dana Calvo (Good Girls Revolt, Narcos) came aboard as showrunner in April. Campbell heads a cast that also includes Steven Pasquale, Alexa Mansour, Demetrius Grosse and Roslyn Ruff.

Sources say that the show’s first episode had finished filming, but nothing beyond that. A+E Studios is said to believe in the show’s auspices and will explore options to find Avalon another home.

Two Desperate Housewives alums are headed to Fox's Fantasy Island.

Teri Hatcher and James Denton have both landed guest-starring roles on the third episode of Fantasy Island Season 2, according to The Futon Critic.

"Empty nesters Dolly (Hatcher) and Dutch (Denton) seek clarity on how to spend their next chapter," reads the official logline for the episode.

"Meanwhile, Helene (recurring Alexa Mansour) helps Ruby (Barnes) tap into her newfound youth. Javier (Rodriquez) opens up to Roarke (Sánchez) as he wrestles with his new role," it continues.

Hatcher played Susan Mayer on all eight seasons of Desperate Housewives, starring opposite Denton, who played her love interest, Mike Delfino.

Desperate Housewives wrapped its run in 2012.

However, the two stars reunited on Hallmark last year for A Kiss Before Christmas as part of the cabler's annual Countdown to Christmas Event.

It was their first on-screen reunion since wrapping on the beloved ABC primetime soap.

Alexa Mansour (The Walking Dead: World Beyond) will make her first appearance on the series during the second episode of season two. Frankie J. Alvarez, Jai Rodriguez, and Izzy Diaz will also guest star in the episode which is expected to air on June 7th.

Will everyone be able to fool the Crm?

On The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season 2 Episode 5, the gang enacts a dangerous plan to all reunite down the line.

Unfortunately for them, it won't be easy.

The Crm has proven to be a formidable force, and if the mysterious company gets wind of everyone taking part in this plan, it could lead to death and destruction.

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season 2, Episode 4, “Family is a Four-Letter Word.”] Well, sisters Iris (Aliyah Royale) and Hope (Alexa Mansour) have a sweet reunion — but other than that, unfortunately, not a whole lot else happens on this episode of World Beyond. Tensions are high, of course, when Huck (Annet Mahendru) walks through the gates, especially given how she left things with Felix (Nico Tortorella), and because Will (Jelani Alladin) would have a huge target on his back if the Civic Republic Military knew he was alive. But while Felix does threaten to kill her “someday” — which is just vague enough to imply it probably won’t be Felix who does her in, if she dies — he does also stop a revenge-minded Percy (Ted Sutherland) from killing her, so Huck lives to fight another day. Steve Swisher/AMC While all of this is unfolding, Hope and Iris have a few teary conversations during ...

The second section of eight episodes of the Angela Kang showrun Twd will premiere on February 20, 2022.

No debut date has been given yet for the final eight episodes of the third section of the final season, but they are expected in the second half of next year.

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season 2 will conclude the second spinoff set in The Walking Dead universe.

TV Fanatic got the chance to watch the first two episodes and speak with the cast about the upcoming season.

When the second season begins, the characters are mainly split up, giving us many new storytelling possibilities.

Felix (Nico Tortorella) spent much of the first season thinking Will (Jelani Alladin) was dead, only for them to be reunited.

Tortorella explained that it was very special to have these characters reunited.

"We got flashbacks of their relationship in that first season, and they were so beautiful," the star shared.

"It really set the groundwork for where we were going, and now that they are back in the same space with the united mission at hand, albeit an intense one, they both have more to live for."

This is an excerpt from TV Guide Magazine’s The Walking Dead Universe Special Collector’s Issue, which is available for international pre-order online at TheWalkingDeadMag.com and is available nationwide on newsstands now. The undead hereare known as “empties,” but World Beyond’s second and final season is chock-full of answers. Mostly about the Civic Republic Military (Crm), the shadowy cabal that’s already gotten its hands on The Walking Dead’s Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) as well as several Fear survivors, in addition to terrorizing many on Beyond (set 10 years after the start of the apocalypse). “You’re going to get a lot of insight about what you’ve heard passed around between Dead and Fear,” notes Aliyah Royale, who plays fierce teen Iris Bennett. Last season, Iris and her edgy adoptive sister Hope (Alexa Mansour) left the safe haven of Nebraska’s Campus Colony for New York to locate their scientist dad,...

The Walking Dead: World Beyond is returning for its second and final season next month, and the AMC series has announced a big addition to the cast of the series. The Walking Dead's Pollyanna McIntosh will appear on the series as Jadis.

Aliyah Royale, Alexa Mansour, Nicolas Cantu, Hal Cumpston, Nico Tortorella, Annet Mahendru, Julia Ormond, Joe Holt, Jelani Alladin, Natalie Gold, and Ted Sutherland star in this second spin-off to the popular zombie series. Read More…...

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season 2 will feature the return of a long-gone character from The Walking Dead.

AMC announced today that The Walking Dead’s Pollyanna McIntosh has joined the cast of The Walking Dead: World Beyond’s ten-episode second season premiering October 3 at 10:00p.m. Et/9c on AMC.

McIntosh will reprise her role as Jadis” a fan favorite from the Walking Dead, which should leave fans with a lot of questions.

If you watch The Walking Dead online, you know that Jadis left the mains series alongside Rick (Andrew Lincoln).

Heck, this might mean we'll finally get some intel on what became of Rick.

Then again, the franchise might want to save those reveals for, you know, the trilogy of movies announced.

On a side note: Does anyone else feel like these movies are no longer happening?

It wouldn't surprise me if Rick returned for the series finale,...

The Walking Dead’s second spinoff, The Walking Dead: World Beyond, promised…well, a world beyond the usual Twd storytelling possibilities.

In that regard, the AMC series about four precocious youths 10 years into the zombie post-apocalypse mostly delivered. Season 1 of the show, which premiered last October after a Covid delay, picked up in Nebraska at the Campus Colony of Omaha before heading out on a cross-country adventure. In the process, the show formally introduced the Civic Republic, and its military arm (the Crm) that seems set to become a major antagonist for The Walking Dead franchise for years to come.

Despite bringing exciting new antagonistic toys for The Walking Dead’s sandbox to play with, World Beyond is somewhat unusual compared to its companion series. While The Walking Dead is finally set to conclude with its 11th and final season beginning on Aug. 22 and first spinoff Fear the Walking Dead...

The second season of The Walking Dead: World Beyond is coming this fall and it appears that it is also the end for the AMC limited series. A horror drama, this show is set in the universe of The Walking Dead TV series.

The first season of The Walking Dead: World Beyond follows the first generation raised in a surviving civilization of the post-apocalyptic world. The season stars Aliyah Royale, Alexa Mansour, Annet Mahendru, Nicolas Cantu, Hal Cumpston, Nico Tortorella, and Julia Ormond. The story begins following two sisters and two friends as leave a place of safety and comfort to brave known and unknown dangers and begin an important cross-country quest. Pursued by those who wish to protect them and those who wish to harm them, it's a tale of growing up and transformation. The story unfurls across dangerous terrain,...

The Walking Dead: World Beyond's short run will conclude with its second season.

Based on our first look at the second season, it looks like the spinoff will finally live up to its potential.

If there was one thing I despised about The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season 1, it was the slow nature of it all.

Now that the truth is out there about Huck's connection to Elizabeth, it should result in some bigger swings.

Then, there's the whole connection to the Civic Republic Military. To date, they've been shadowy figures doing questionable things, meaning it's tough to understand their machinations.

Using Huck as an entrance to that world will probably benefit the story greatly because she was one of the standout characters of the first season.

Iris and Hope's quest for answers led them on quite the journey, but with Hope under the rule of the Crm and her sister still out there,...

Just like 2020, there’s going to be a lot of the zombie apocalypse on the small screen this fall.

In a move reminiscent of last year’s Comic-Con@Home, The Walking Dead: World Beyond on Saturday unveiled the premiere date for its second and seemingly final season. The limited-series spinoff that follows the first generation raised in the post-apocalyptic world will return to AMC on October 3.

Along with that debut date, World Beyond during its virtual panel today rolled out a clip from the 10-episode second season of the Scott M. Gimple- and Matt Negrete-created show — and things have gotten bloody, to say the least:

EPs Gimple and Negrete were both on the pre-recorded World Beyond panel this afternoon, joined by cast members Aliyah Royale, Alexa Mansour, Nicolas Cantu, Hal Cumpston, Nico Tortorella, Annet Mahendru, Julia Ormond, Jelani Alladin and Joe Holt.

Having appeared in World Beyond last season,...

"Walking Dead: World Beyond" is proving to be a key piece of the expanding "Walking Dead" universe, thanks to the focus that the spinoff has put on the mysterious Civic Republic, which has only appeared on the fringes of the other shows in the franchise. And now we know when we'll get to see more of Iris (Aliyah Royale) and Hope's (Alexa Mansour) struggle to try to free their dad from the Crm's clutches: October 3 on AMC, and earlier for AMC+ subscribers.

The news came out of the "World Beyond" panel during Comic-Con@Home, where we also got our first look at the new season. "Walking Dead" universe boss Scott M. Gimple also said the premiere will be followed by an episode of "Talking Dead," which is usually reserved for the main series. "Fear the Walking Dead" will also get a "Talking Dead" episode after its Season 7 premiere.

In the clip we saw,...
