IT: Chapter Two will be in theaters next year, and to celebrate Halloween this year the first teaser poster has been released. Be ready: it may just be the most epic poster of all-time! Okay so not spectacular. Since it is a year out, it makes complete sense for them to do something like this, […]
Jason Goes to Hell, the ninth film in the Friday the 13th series starring everyone's favorite slasher behemoth Jason Voorhees, is… well, it is not very good. As a fan of the series, I can admire what they tried to do with that film, while also saying that it is the worst in the series. […]

There have been rumored that Jessica Chastain has been linked to the It sequel since before the movie even dropped.
