Director Alberto Corredor expands his own award-winning 2017 short for this original British horror. In addition to delivering a steady flow of creepy chills, it also has significant franchise potential, and if that happens, sales of potato sacks are going to go through the roof come Halloween time.
Baghead is set in present-day Berlin, where cash-strapped 20-something Iris (The Witcher’s Freya Allan) inherits a large run-down pub, after the horrific death of her estranged father, Owen (Peter Mullan). The manager of her father’s estate is keen to offload the property, but Iris decides to stay, inviting her best friend Katie (Bridgerton’s Ruby Barker) to join her.
However, they soon discover that the basement of the pub is home to a sinister supernatural presence,...

Minutes into the medieval intro of “The Faceless Lady,” a fair maiden rips off her face. You immediately feel a bit nauseated. But did the violence trigger that reaction — or is it the fact that the action seems to be happening somewhere deep in your visual cortex?
“The Faceless Lady,” a collaboration between Meta and producer Eli Roth, is billed as “the first known scripted original VR live action, stereoscopic (3D) series ever produced of its size.” Although it’s designed for the Meta’s Quest headset, the story and scope seem wide enough to exist out of the headset. It’s a complete package that could bring fresh eyes to next-gen storytelling.
The six-episode undertaking, written by Jerome Velinsky and directed by John William Ross, is an escape room spin on ghostly lore. Three twentysomething couples head to the mysterious Kilolc Castle in Ireland to play deadly games for...

Eli Roth is continuing to push the horror genre into new terrain, except this time, it’s through virtual reality.
The “Thanksgiving” director produces Meta, Crypt TV, and ShinAwiL series “The Faceless Lady” which will debut exclusively on Meta Horizon Worlds. Billed as the first known live-action VR series, the six-episode “The Faceless Lady” will premiere in stereoscopic (3D) and have weekly installments that transport viewers (players?) into a new world.
The series is set in Ireland and has a storyline inspired by real 17th century Irish folklore, particularly the myths surrounding Lady Margaret Hodnett who haunts Cork’s Belvelly Castle.

Abstract art plays a featured role in the first few episodes of Hulu’s new heist drama Culprits. A Rothko exhibit is the site of an early meeting between two aspiring criminals, and the artist’s canvases are a topic of conversation. A later episode walks through a full room of striking works, a Mondrian here, a Kandinsky there. Nobody discusses the paintings this time, but London is full of places to hold meetings, so this interest on series creator J Blakeson’s part feels more than incidental.
Like many things in Culprits, however, the eye for 20th-century masterworks ends up being more of a red herring than a fascination with substance, a burst of color or geometry to attract the eye more than a point of thematic resonance. Despite a fragmented narrative and a couple of interesting characters, very little in Culprits feels all that modern and nothing so much as flirts with abstraction.

"Talk to the dead. Pay the price." Leave the dead alone! Studiocanal has revealed the first official trailer for a creepy new supernatural horror film called Baghead, created by Spanish filmmaker Alberto Corredor. (Not to be confused with the Duplass Brothers' indie classic Baghead from 2008.) From the producer of It and Barbarian, meet Baghead in this new horror thriller. Following the death of her father, a young woman inherits a run-down pub & discovers a dark secret hidden down in its basement: Baghead – a shapeshifting creature that will let you speak to lost loved ones, but not without consequence. Danger! Yeah this sounds super frightening. Freya Allan stars as Iris, with a cast including Ruby Barker, Ned Dennehy, Peter Mullan, Jeremy Irvine, Saffron Burrows, and Svenja Jung. This looks like it gets crazy once they let this woman out of the basement, even though that's exactly what her dad told her not to do.

It’s 2010, and Gemma Arterton is describing to Empire Magazine having spent an entire day shooting kidnap thriller The Disappearance of Alice Creed in tears. “Your body’s not supposed to cry that much. It is exhausting.” Martin Compston, her co-star in the crying scene, agrees in earnest and the interviewer jokes off-camera, “So what you’re saying is: feel-good hit of the summer?”
Compston laughs, “Yeah, Disney Channel!” and Arterton repeats the gag, shaking her head at its ridiculousness “Disney Channel!”
13 years, a brand shift and a streaming revolution later, and Disney is now the UK home of The Disappearance of Alice Creed. Disney+ is also the UK home of writer-director J Blakeson’s latest collaboration with Arterton: TV thriller Culprits, which is out on Hulu in the US.
That eight-part series is the story of consequences catching up with the diverse crew who pulled off a mega-money heist years earlier.

Series creator J Blakeson enjoys heist films but wanted to do something different with the subgenre. The trailer for Hulu’s Culprits shows that he did just that, setting the story years after a heist when the robbers have put their former criminal ways behind them and have established new lives.
“Heists have been done so many times, the great thing about this is that you can sort of play in that sandbox with the tropes and the expectations and the iconography of the heist, but actually tell a story, which is much more about these people who are dealing with this bad thing they’ve done and the consequences of their actions and trying to escape who they were and are trying to become a person who they’d like to be,” said Blakeson in an interview with Variety.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read until you have watched “Outlander” Season 6, Episode 8 titled “I Am Not Alone.”
Despite a tightly packed sixth season comprised of just eight episodes, Starz’s “Outlander” did not disappoint with its dramatic finale episode “I Am Not Alone.”
At the start of the finale, Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) — a couple who can never catch a break — barricade themselves inside their home while facing off against Richard Brown (Chris Larkin) and his militia. Brown has come to fetch Claire to make her stand trial for the murder of Malva Christie, a “trial” both Claire and Jamie know will not end well if Brown and his mob get their hands on her. As bullets rip against the walls of the Big House at Fraser’s Ridge, the two have a heartfelt discussion as to whether this could truly be the end of their story.

Nearly two years have passed since the fifth season of Outlander wrapped, ending on an incredibly solemn and foreboding note. Claire’s brutal assault by Lionel Brown (Ned Dennehy) and his gang of men was eventually avenged by Jamie (Sam Heughan) and the men of Fraser’s Ridge. Roger (Richard Rankin) and Brianna (Sophie Skelton) realize home is exactly where they’ve been this whole time, not in the future, confirmed by an unsuccessful time-traveling jaunt.

Outlander is almost back and the Frasers are dealing with a lot, from suspicious new settlers to the fallout from last season’s attack by the Browns. Now, Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) are navigating new waters as they grapple with her trauma, something that will play a major role as Season 6 unfolds. As viewers will recall, when we last saw the Fraser matriarch in the fifth season, she was kidnapped and brutally attacked by Lionel Brown (Ned Dennehy) and his men. Jamie, Ian (John Bell), Roger (Richard Rankin), and Fergus (César Domboy) all came to her rescue and eliminated the men involved — all but Lionel, who was brought back to Fraser’s Ridge, where Marsali (Lauren Lyle) put him to death with a lethal injection. But even though she is now safe at home in the sixth season, Claire’s horrors are still simmering at just below the surface.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not watched Season 5 of “Outlander.”
Safe to say, the fifth season of Starz’s “Outlander” was dramatic on an epic scale and ended pretty violently. With nearly two years’ time since last season’s finale aired on May 10, 2020, there is a lot to catch up on before viewers reconnect with the Fraser family. In a recent trailer for Season 6, it’s clear Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) — plus the rest of their brood — will have plenty of drama on the horizon as the Revolutionary War looms.

Set your clocks, time travelers. The moment is finally here. Outlander, the wildly popular Starz drama starring Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe, will return in the spring.

Outlander will return with Season 6 at 9 p.m. Sunday, March 6, across all Starz platforms.
The news was revealed by Diana Gabaldon, author of the Outlander book series the historical drama is based on, at Monday’s launch of the ninth book in the series, Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone.
Season 6, based on Gabaldon’s book A Breath of Snow and Ashes, picks up after the events of the fifth season that saw Claire Beauchamp (Caitríona Balfe) return to Fraser’s Ridge after escaping a violent encounter with Lionel Brown (Ned Dennehy).
She and her husband Jamie MacKenzie Fraser (Sam Heughan) now are striving to maintain peace and flourish within a society which — as Claire knows all too well— is unwittingly marching toward revolution.
Against this backdrop, Claire and Jamie have built a home together at Fraser’s Ridge and now must defend it as it was established...

"Don't trust her... Find the girl. Get your money and leave." Saban Films has released an official trailer for a sci-fi action thriller called Zone 414, dropping out of nowhere. This hasn't premiered at any festivals or elsewhere, and will be available to watch at the beginning of September. Set in the near future in a colony of state-of-the-art humanoid robots.

The 2021 Emmy nominations were revealed on Tuesday, July 13 and “Outlander” was nowhere to be found. But don’t worry, “Outlander” fans, your favorite show wasn’t snubbed. In actuality, the Starz romance epic didn’t air any new episodes within the eligibility period. Season 5 ended on May 10, 2020 and Season 6 isn’t expected to debut until early 2022. That means we’re in yet another so-called “Droughtlander” where the show takes an extended hiatus, this time brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Production on the new episodes began in Scotland in February and ended in June, so the Season 6 cast list should be announced sooner rather than later. All we know right now is that leading stars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan will be back in action as time traveling nurse Claire Randall Fraser and her Highlander true love Jamie Fraser. The new season will be based on “A Breath of Snow and Ashes,...
