Ethan Edwards’ Goose offers audiences a comforting opportunity to indulge in the unsettling power of storytelling. A pair of old college friends find themselves in a battle of will and ego as the contents of a debut novel start to resonate far too close to home. What begins as a tense but civil exchange escalates into a deliciously barbed duel, where every line carries the weight of buried resentment and the absurdity of seeing oneself refracted through someone else’s fiction. Edwards uses subtle visual cues to underscore the shifting power dynamics with camera compositions that trap the increasingly tense back and forth, belying the casual setup between his two actors. Goose is a whip-smart exploration of authorship, memory, and the uncomfortable truths we’d rather leave buried and not weaponized by supposed friends. As his film premieres on Dn, we speak to the writer/director about finding the perfect...

Premiering on October 25, 1997, Under Wraps was the inaugural Disney Channel Original Movie. The cornerstone of the network’s programming proved to be as close to appointment viewing as it got for ‘90s kids, along with the likes of ABC’s Tgif and Nickelodeon’s Snick. Moreover, Under Wraps served as a gateway to horror for many millennials. Before the age of streaming, catching a mummy movie on the same channel where you watched Disney cartoons and Boy Meets World reruns could have been your first exposure to the macabre.

Disney attempted to recapture the magic with last year’s Under Wraps remake. The original movie was successful — and continues to hold up 25 years later — for several reasons; relatable kid leads, a great Halloween atmosphere, and a sense of humor chief among them. Director/co-writer Alex Zamm and co-writer William Robertson (Inspector Gadget 2) smartly maintained those elements for the new iteration.

Released in 1997, the Disney Channel Original Movie Under Wraps got a modern remake this past Halloween, and Under Wraps 2 is coming to the Disney Channel this year.

Under Wraps 2 premieres Sunday, September 25. Watch the trailer below.

Alex Zamm returned to direct Under Wraps 2, which introduces an evil mummy.
