Freaky has topped the box office the last two weekends, even with it being such an anemic time in theaters. Blumhouse and Universal want as many eyeballs on this film as they can get, though, and after teasing it a week or so ago, we now know that Freaky will indeed hit VOD streaming services […]
An unnamed Universal Monsters film is coming from Phil Lord and Chris Miller. The duo will produce the film, which will also star Channing Tatum, reuniting the creative team that brought us two better-than-they-had-any-business-being 21 Jump Street films.

Okay, if you've seen these before (which I'm assuming you have), you know that Fast Five is regarded as one of the most not great movies in the franchise. That and 2 Fast 2 Furious, but at least that one is given the benefit of the doubt for being made so long ago and without a […]
Halloween Kills may not be coming out until 2021, but it is the title of the third film in this current trilogy that has fans buzzing these last few months.
