Often called Dellamorte Dellamore, the film Cemetery Man has a straightforward story but delivers it brilliantly—and literally. The movie follows Francesco Dellamorte (Rupert Everett), a quiet cemetery caretaker whose job gets complicated when foaming-at-the-mouth ghouls start climbing out of their graves. It’s a truly excellent and scary film that hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves, and it’s currently available to stream on AMC+ or watch for free on YouTube.

Currently, the streaming platform only has two films from the popular action series, which means fans who want to watch all of them will need to find them elsewhere. And those two aren’t even back-to-back: the first film, Die Hard, came out in 1988, while the fourth, Live Free or Die Hard, was released in 2007.

Horror films existed even before Universal’s Dracula, which was one of the first big horror movies made after the age of silent films. The style of German Expressionism heavily influenced these early films, and filmmakers such as Val Lewton later tried to elevate the genre with more artistic horror. Ultimately, classic horror movies provide much more than just scares and monsters.

The film feels delicate and almost improvised – it’s surprising to learn it took three weeks to make. It’s best described as a love letter to Hong Kong, filled with quick, candid shots of the city’s streets, markets, parks, and trains. The slightly unsteady, fragmented visuals reflect the fleeting lives of the characters. The story centers on Zi (Michelle Mao), a violinist lost in Hong Kong, struggling with a mysterious neurological condition that causes her to have visions – glimpses of her past or perhaps her future. She confides in Elle (Haley Lu Richardson, known for her role in the film Columbus), an American woman with a noticeable wig who seems genuinely worried. Both women are observed by Min (Jin Ha), a man whose connection to them remains unclear.

HBO has consistently delivered some of the highest-quality television shows ever made, including hits like Game of Thrones, The Sopranos, Succession, and Band of Brothers. And they don’t seem to be stopping anytime soon – HBO continues to produce popular shows with even more exciting projects on the way.

Over the years, there have been many TV shows based on Greek mythology. The latest is Percy Jackson & the Olympians on Disney+, which is adapted from the popular young adult books by Rick Riordan. This series does a much better job of capturing the excitement, adventure, and myths from the books than previous movie versions.

John Lithgow is a prominent actor in HBO’s new Harry Potter series, taking on the role of Albus Dumbledore previously played by Richard Harris and Michael Gambon. However, his involvement, along with other actors, has faced criticism due to J.K. Rowling’s controversial views and actions regarding transgender people. Lithgow recently spoke about this backlash, explaining that a friend – the mother of a transgender child – alerted him to an open letter asking him to withdraw from the show. He described this as a warning sign, but firmly stated he had no intention of leaving the role.

Eighteen minutes in and not a single award has been given out.

So far, only half of the actors and their roles in the movie have been revealed, sparking a lot of discussion. One popular rumor is that Lupita Nyong’o, known for her role in 12 Years a Slave, will play Helen of Troy – a legendary figure said to be the daughter of Zeus and the most beautiful woman in the world – in a reimagined story. However, this casting choice has drawn criticism online. Comedian Chrissie Mayr expressed strong disapproval on X (formerly Twitter), stating that Christopher Nolan previously altered The Odyssey and that casting Nyong’o as Helen of Troy is disrespectful to the original story.

Many people on the left have fantasized about their conservative family members finally acknowledging the issues they’ve been raising for years. On Saturday Night Live, Ashley Padilla portrayed a mother who’s starting to question whether Donald Trump was a good president. But, like someone recovering from addiction, the underlying issues remain. This mom still needs … Read more
