Bold and the Beautiful reveals Sheila Carter after something draws her son to her spot among a pile of filth on the CBS soap. After Deacon Sharpe rips off her sock and sees nine toes, they know it’s her. But is she alive or dead?
Bold and the Beautiful: Looked Like Sheila Carter, Funeral #2
Sheila Carter’s (Kimberlin Brown) fate looks pretty grim when the two men finally uncover her face. But before that, Finn doesn’t behave like a doctor. No, John Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) looks too fearful to check her vitals.
Both Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) feel around the lifeless body with horrifying looks on their faces. A few things that put this search as a bit of a farce for Bold and the Beautiful fans.

Kevin Macdonald's High & Low – John Galliano is now showing exclusively on Mubi in many countries.High & Low – John Galliano.What are the limits of forgiveness? Is making a documentary about a disgraced public figure, in which that remorseful person is allowed to try to explain their actions, inherently an act of damage-control propaganda? Or can it be a way of letting them tighten their own noose? Since its premiere at Telluride last September, Kevin Macdonald’s High & Low – John Galliano (2023) has fueled such heated conversations. Leaving many of its inquiries open-ended, this documentary is about neither complete condemnation nor exoneration. Instead, Macdonald tries to make sense of the enigma at his film’s center: a man who does not deny committing a hate crime over a decade ago, but who still claims to have no memory of the events or how he got there.Widely admired for his audacious style and designs,...

Joe Biden called out Donald Trump for working to scuttle a bill to address national security and the border, even though it was negotiated over months by both parties in the Senate.
Calling the it “the strongest border bill the country has ever seen,” Biden called on GOP lawmakers “to show some spine to do what they know to be right.”
“I’m calling on Congress to pass this bill so it gets to my desk immediately. But if the bill fails, I want to be absolutely clear about something: The American people are going to know what it failed.” He said that after initially calling for a border bill, Republicans reversed themselves after Trump made it clear he did not want the issue settled before the November election.
The $118 billion border and national security package includes money to beef up border security, as well as aid to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan.

The numbers are in, and while, they’re less dire than we were predicting; in the end, Argylle had a disastrous opening for Apple Films/ Universal. It ended up rallying to about $18 million, higher than the $16.5 million Deadline predicted yesterday. However, it’s still a poor opening for a movie with a $200 million price tag. Vaughn had been open about combining this franchise with the Kingsman films to launch a super spy multiverse, but it looks like the franchise is Doa before it even starts.
While the fact that Argylle was designed as a streaming film may have some saying the box office result doesn’t matter, the more concerning part is the C+ Cinemascore, which suggests audiences thoroughly disliked this caper. Part of the negative reaction might be the bait-and-switch advertising campaign, with it marketed as a Henry Cavill/ John Cena/ Duo Lipa-led spy romp, but in reality, none...

It looks like Matthew Vaughn’s ambitious plan for a superspy multiverse franchise is Doa, with his most ambitious film to date, Argylle, opening under expectations at the box office this weekend. According to Deadline’s stats, the film, which Apple acquired for a hefty $200 million, is set to open with a modest $16.5 million. This is a pretty disastrous opening for a would-be franchise movie. What makes it even worse is that the Cinemascore for the movie was a dire C+, meaning that word-of-mouth is pretty poor. Usually, an underperforming blockbuster would open in the B-range, suggesting a substantial day-to-day plummet for the film. It may come in well under Deadline’s estimates when all is said and done.
This opening aligns with the $15 million I predicted earlier this week. However, as one of the few critics who enjoyed it, I’m dismayed by its bad performance. One thing working...

It can seem like "superhero movie" is an automatic greenlight in Hollywood these days. Yet, the genre is still littered with unrealized projects.
One is "X-Men Origins: Magneto." True to its title, it would've chronicled the early years of the X-Men's arch-foe. If any Marvel villain could sustain an origin movie, it's Magneto, who has one of the boldest backstories in superhero comics. In the 1980s, "X-Men" comic writer Chris Claremont desired to revitalize Magneto, to make him "a more credible adversary, but also a more credible person." That meant offering a reason for why he believed in mutant supremacy. Claremont considered what was known about Magneto and struck upon brilliance:
"Magneto had to have come to adolescence, and possibly come of age, in the Second World War. And he certainly looked European. And what would have given him such an extreme attitude toward mutant-human relations? [...] The next corollary was,...

Tony Bennett's first record, "Because of You" was released in 1952 and it instantly codified the entertainer as one of the music world's great crooners. In 1962, his 15th record, "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" was certified platinum by the RIAA, but that was after he had already established himself with Count Basie and his Orchestra and as a great fan of songwriter Harold Arlen. All told, he released 61 records in his decades-long career, not including his eight albums of collaborations and duets. He sang with Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Ray Charles, Carrie Underwood, Stevie Wonder, Natalie Cole, Mariah Carey, Bono, Sting, Paul McCartney, Diana Krall, and many others. Most recently, he released two collaborations with Lady Gaga in 2018 and 2021. Bennett passed away on July 21, 2023 at the age of 96. He will be deeply missed.

Last month, Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel went to the theater to see “Super Mario Bros.,” a movie they directed 30 years ago — and haven’t watched since.
The live-action 1993 film, starring Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo as Mario and Luigi, bombed at the box office and landed on various “Worst Movies of All Time” lists, later developing a passionate cult following. In the directors’ own words, “Super Mario Bros.” was so “reviled” that it left a “black mark” on the married couple’s careers.
That is, until a midnight screening held at Quentin Tarantino’s New Beverly Cinema on March 11 “washed away the stain.”
“My thought was that there would be 10 or 20 people there,” Morton tells Variety. “But it was jam-packed. There were people queueing up around the block for extra tickets.” During the film, Morton says the audience was “laughing and clapping at all the right places. They weren...

Jack Quaid is best known for his role as Hughie Campbell in the Prime TV series "The Boys," but you may have also seen him in blockbuster films like "The Hunger Games" and "Scream." If you're wondering when he'll hit the big screen again, it's actually very soon because Jack is set to appear in the star-studded film "Oppenheimer," which hits theaters in July.
Jack has definitely come a long way since making his film debut in 2012, and if his name sounds familiar to you, that's because he comes from a famous family. Jack's father is seasoned actor Dennis Quaid, whose career spans decades and credits include "The Big Easy," "The Parent Trap," and "The Day After Tomorrow." Jack's mother, Meg Ryan, has an equally impressive résumé, as she's been in a bunch of our favorite romantic comedies like "When Harry Met Sally," "Sleepless in Seattle," and "You've Got Mail.

Stand-up comedians are some of the neediest people on the planet. Their livelihood hinges on their laugh-provoking expertise, and every single performance can feel like a make-or-break referendum on their funniness. Even the greats feel this pressure. In the 2002 documentary "Comedian," Jerry Seinfeld observes that an established, widely beloved comic only gets a slim grace period between taking the stage and delivering the goods. People are paying a two-drink minimum — they expect to laugh.
Every comedian has an off-night, but I have a hard time envisioning what that looked like for Robin Williams. Ditto, Eddie Murphy. With Williams, you knew he was going to remove the restraining bolt from his brain and access that deep reservoir of jokes and references and spot-on impersonations with dizzying speed. Murphy was different. He exuded confidence, deftly gliding from bit to bit, secure in the knowledge that he could only kill. Maybe that's why...

Sentient Entertainment founder and CEO Renee Tab and producer Christopher Tuffin are launching a new foreign sales, finance and production outfit dubbed Sentient Pictures International (Spi), which they will oversee alongside former Relativity COO Andrew Marcus and Taken helmer Pierre Morel.
The first projects on the company’s sales slate include drama Last Meals, from director Adewale Akinnuoye Agbaje and Morel’s sci-fi thriller D.O.A.
Last Meals stars Delroy Lindo and Boyd Holbrook and follows a disgraced and misunderstood White House chef who finds himself many years later working in a maximum security prison cooking last meals for inmates on death row. There, he forms an unlikely bond with an inmate who launches a hunger strike as his day of execution quickly approaches.

With her quirky personality and perky smile, Meg Ryan reigned as queen of romantic comedies for over two decades after stumbling onto an acting career during her college years. Over the past 30 years, the blond-haired, blue-eyed actress has carved out a diverse and successful career, making her one of the most popular actresses of her time.
Ryan was born November 19, 1961, in Fairfield, Connecticut. After graduating high school, she majored in journalism at New York University, and began acting to earn extra money, adopting the name Meg Ryan (taken from her grandmother’s maiden name). Following appearances in TV commercials and her film debut in George Cukor‘s final film “Rich and Famous,” Ryan gained fame as half of one of the most popular soap opera super couples with her portrayal of Betsy Stewart Montgomery on “As the World Turns” from 1982-1984.

‘Bill & Ted Face the Music’ Review: Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter Reunite for a Most Excellent Sequel
“Bill & Ted Face the Music” has a high-fluff effervescence. It’s about how Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves), those chuckle-brained metal heads who speak like Jeff Spicoli with a thesaurus, have just 77 minutes to travel through time and get the song — from themselves! Because they wrote it already! Whoa!! — that will unite humanity and save reality as we know it. As they trip further and further into the future, they keep meeting older versions of themselves, a variation on the doubling-up-of-identity-through-space-time stunt that the first two “Bill and Ted” films played with, only here it gets a major metaphysical stoned workout. Meanwhile, Bill and Ted’s respective daughters, Thea (Samara Weaving) and Billie (Brigitte Lundy-Paine), who are of course chips off the old blockhead, go back in time to gather a band of musicians that includes Louis Armstrong, Jimi Hendrix, Mozart, and Kid Cudi.

It is hard to believe that the forever youthful Dennis Quaid turns 65 on April 9, 2019. His successful film career that started close to 40 years ago was perhaps spurred by the success of his older brother Randy Quaid, who had left their Texas home and became an Oscar-nominated actor (he received a Supporting Actor nomination in 1973 for “The Last Detail”).
He dropped out of the University of Houston and moved to Los Angeles to also pursue a professional acting career. After a brief period of struggle, he started gaining small roles in films like “I Never Promised You a Rose Garden” about a young girl’s battle with mental illness and “September 30, 1955” about the effects on a small-town boy when he finds out about the death of James Dean.

Director-screenwriter Stephen C. Sepher seems to have missed an opportunity with his new thriller inspired by the classic 1949 film noir D.O.A., starring Edmond O'Brien. Rehashing the storyline of a man who's been fatally poisoned desperately trying to uncover the identity of his killer, Dead on Arrival should have pointed the finger at the obvious suspect, Vladimir Putin. It certainly would have made the film timelier.
This low-budget effort is unlikely to erase anyone's memories of its classic B-movie inspiration, or even the inferior 1988 remake starring Dennis Quaid. But taken on its own terms, it's not bad.

I can’t really be held accountable for believing that the combined efforts of legendary German auteur Wim Wenders, Academy Award-winner Alicia Vikander, and the fervid James McAvoy would spawn a piece of cinema teeming with heartache and intrigue, can I? Well, as their supposed romantic thriller Submergence would have it, the thought should’ve been long purged from my mind using electroconvulsive therapy. Wenders’ deep sea exploration of love and separation, doesn’t generate enough of the former for the latter to ever matter. Dabbling in topical themes like climate change and terrorism, all while attempting to execute a Bond-esque, star-crossed lovers narrative. Submergence’s commentary ultimately conveys a whole lot of nothing.
Danielle Flinders (Vikander) is a bio-mathematician prepping for a dive into the bleakest depths of the Greenland Sea to gather specimens in a submersible. James More (McAvoy), a spy about to be shipped off to Somalia on a reconnaissance mission,...

More often than not, especially in the wealthier parts of this world, having a child is an act of hope. For married couples, it’s a very obvious, very expensive way of renewing their vows — a leap of faith. Some people might have a kid as a desperate means of suturing their relationship together, but nobody does it expecting to get divorced. That’s what makes it all the more devastating when they do.
As sharp and savage as any breakup drama this side of “A Separation,” Joachim Lafosse’s “After Love” is the story of two people who are forced to live in the rubble of their 15-year relationship. By the time the film begins, the affection between Marie Barrault (“The Artist” star Bérénice Bejo) and Boris Marker (“Wild Life” director Cédric Kahn) has already curdled into something toxic; whatever wounds they’ve inflicted on each other have already...

Destin Daniel Cretton’s 2013 breakout drama “Short Term 12” delivered a heartwarming story with bite. His portrait of a home for troubled teenagers owed much to Brie Larson, who played its passionate supervisor with a mixture of empathy and rage against the flaws of a system designed to improve young people’s lives. It delivered a sentimental message without trumping its characters’ palpable rage and cynicism, and established Cretton as a director capable of generating emotion without pandering.
Cretton still makes that effort with his long-awaited followup, “The Glass Castle,” but with less success. While he has a fascinating story and another stirring Larson performance, the results are minor and decidedly more middlebrow.
Adapted from Jeanette Walls’ memoir, Larson plays the author as she grows up in a wildly dysfunctional household headed by her alcoholic father Rex (Woody Harrelson), who forces the family to live a nomadic, hand-to-mouth existence in...

What other word describes a film that kicks off a presumed franchise in the vein of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, in spite of not gauging whether or not audiences want such a franchise? The ingredients for a compelling single movie exist within The Mummy, yet they never cohere […]

An Alabama grandfather is behind bars after he allegedly killed his son who he believed was physically abusing his 12-year-old granddaughter.
Hubbard Junior Hall, 64, was taken into custody February 21 after he shot his 41-year-old son, Mark, at Hall’s home in Baldwin County, Alabama. Hall has been charged with murder. He made his first court appearance earlier this week and was given a $100,000 bond.
Hall does not currently have an attorney, Baldwin County District Attorney Robert Wilters tells People.

A classic film noir is getting a remake and modern update.
Silver Plane Films and Kingfisher Media announced that the production for D.O.A. Blood River will start shooting this month in Louisiana.
The noir thriller is inspired by director Rudolph Mate’s 1950 thriller D.O.A.
D.O.A Blood River will follow Sam Collins as a pharmaceutical sales rep, who visits a small town in Louisiana to close a business deal of a lifetime. Collins enters a world of sex, corruption and murder—as he is poisoned with no antidote. In a search for answers, he turns to a local girl named Jesse, in which their path leads to a voodoo priestess that confirms Sam’s fate. With nowhere to go and no others to trust, Sam and Jesse are on the run from police detectives, the Mob and a corrupt sheriff who wants him dead.

If you’ve been even slightly attuned to pop culture in the last several decades, you’re familiar with the basic concept of Frankenstein.
From The Rocky Horror Picture Show to Penny Dreadful to countless other movies and TV shows, Mary Shelley’s classic tale — much like the titular doctor’s monster — has had its fair share of resurrections.
Fox on Wednesday night added to the pile of adaptations with Second Chance, a drama starring Rob Kazinsky (EastEnders), Tim DeKay (White Collar) and Dilshad Vadsaria (Greek). Before we get your thoughts on the series premiere, a brief recap:

David Cronenberg's Videodrome isn't just a classic sci-fi horror, but also a brilliant noir thriller. Ryan explains why...
Everything in Max Renn’s life is beginning to pulsate. First the Betamax videotape sent to him by one Bianca O’Blivion, which seems to breathe in his hand as he removes it from its beige packaging. Then Max’s television, squatting in the corner of his apartment, appears take on a life of its own: veins twitching, the screen bulging to the sound of a woman’s voice: “Come to me, Max. Come to me...”
David Cronenberg’s Videodrome, released in 1982, is loaded with violent and startling imagery like this. Like Apocalypse Now, its very narrative seems to disintegrate as its morally suspect protagonist Max Renn (James Woods) embarks on a journey into his own heart of darkness: a fascination with the origins of a video signal soon leads him to a world of corruption,...

D.O.A.
Written by Russell Rouse, Clarence Greene
Directed by Rudolph Maté
U.S.A., 1950
In a terrifically dramatic opening, D.O.A. begins with a series of smooth tracking from behind one man as he walks the corridors of police headquarters whilst the credits appear in the forefront. When the man’s face is revealed, the viewer learns that it is actor Edmond O’Brien, here playing one Frank Bigelow, modest accountant and public notary. Once seated with the police captain he reveals that he has been murdered! Is Frank Bigelow a ghost? No, but he is a dead man walking as the viewer quickly learns when the picture flashes back to the start of Bigelow’s tale when he chose to go on vacation in San Francisco alone, much to the initial consternation of his infatuated girlfriend Paula (Pamela Britton).

Well, The Fault in Our Stars absolutely dominated, bringing in an estimated $48.2 million in its opening weekend to go along with solid reviews and an "A" CinemaScore. One thing to note, however, is more than half the film's gross came on Friday, which included Thursday night screenings in 650 theaters where tickets cost $25 each. Whyc The screening included a simulcast Q&A with stars Shailene Woodley, Ansel Elgort and Nat Wolff, author John Green, director Joshua Boone and producer Wyck Godfrey. Budgeted at only $12 million this thing is already highly profitable, but it's hard to entirely determine how well it will do overall considering the skewed Thursday night numbers, though I wouldn't be surprised to see it finish somewhere around $120 million, which I don't think anyone will have a problem with. I am, however, unsure how they're going to make a sequel out of it, but I'm sure Fox execs have...

Every era is recognised as much for its failures as its successes, from the ones which deliver on their promises perfectly, to the likes of Ride to Hell: Retribution. The sad thing about video games is that the vast majority of such let-downs are the disappointing kind. Even when it’s so dire the developers might as well be mocking your very existence, you can realise how they might have succeeded. Put in enough hours or look far enough into the behind the scenes work, and you can just about see the great game developers were trying to bring to life, even in the absolute worst of games. The shovelware tie-in for Batman Begins might have been dreck of the worst kind but you could at least see the beginnings of ideas which would make it into Arkham Asylum.
You’re likely already thinking of a few in your head.

The 2013 Eyegore Awards
Every year, Universal Studios, the home of horror, turns its revered studio and theme park into a playground for the devil, a maelstrom of haunted mazes and re-purposed rides fitting the all-important Halloween motif. We are greeted with different mazes each year, all chosen to reflect the most popular Universal confections at the time.
Halloween Horror Nights first launched as “Fright Nights” in Universal Studios Florida back in 1991, but in 1997, Halloween Horror Nights spread across the country to Hollywood, which seems only fitting, since this is the home of practically all of the classic horror movies we’ve grown up on. This past Friday, once again, FM attended the kickoff event. Along with the unveiling of this year’s horror mazes, we were treated to a litany of fangtastic guests and horror luminaries, with what could be the shortest and sweetest awards ceremony in Hollywood, the Eyegore Awards.

Do you remember Edmond O'Brien in D.O.A.? Or Dennis Quaid in D.O.A.? Or Jason Statham in Crank Well, you're not the only one. Bruce Willis is attached to star in Expiration, according to Screen Daily. He'll play "a hitman who is poisoned and has to find a cure before he dies." Brian Tucker wrote the screenplay and will produce; his previous produced credit is Broken City, which came out earlier this year and was definitely a mixed bag. (My review.) Tucker is also listed as having a hand in the writing of the proposed Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance remake. At 58, Mr. Willis is still viable as an action star internationally; he's got Red 2 coming up later this year. Reportedly, this production is budgeted...

Now, since we have established that.... We open with a driver drinking and driving on a dark road leading to Great Falls, Mt.
The driver runs into a poor schmuck walking along side of the road. He gets down to check, but the guy is pretty dead. Scared, the driver runs off, making it an open-and-shut hit and run.
Well... that’s it. Go home. The case is closed. Or is it?
By next morning, the dead guy is still D-e-a-d, and even has an eagle munching on his liver (important later), when a Montana State Trooper finds the half-frozen body. He checks for the vitals – nil – and goes back to call the dispatch to retrieve the body,...

Gosh, it feels like only yesterday we were talking about the 2011 Oscar season, with films like "The Artist," "Hugo," "The Descendants," "The Help" and "Moneyball" jostling for position in the chase for little gold statues. And that's because, well, it basically was yesterday: we're only a little over three months since Oscar season wrapped up. But time marches on, and with the arrival of the Cannes Film Festival, we've got some of the first indications of what might come into play in the awards season by the end of this year.
Last year, after all, saw the emergence of "The Artist" on the Croisette, a film that virtually no one was aware of before, but was swiftly picked up the Weinstein Brothers, became a crowd-pleaser, and went on to become an awards season juggernaut, winning Best Picture, Director and Actor.

Still hot on the trail of Deacon Frost, Blade calls in an old friend, Noah van Helsing, a descendant of Abraham van Helsing, to meet him in Kobe, Japan and see if he’s heard of where the four-fanged vampire may have fled to and he had a lead that the Philippines is the next hotspot.
