TV: Looking Ahead To Season 3, Michael Rooker Returning To “The Walking Dead”

Published

on

Tonight is the last new episode of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” that you’re going to see for quite some time. But if you’re looking for tidbits to keep you satiated in those lean months unto the premiere of Season 3, here’s one. Michael Rooker (Slither, Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer) will be reprising his role as Merle. During a “Lollipop Chainsaw” panel at Wondercon yesterday the actor revealed he’d lost 20 pounds for the role – which is something you’re not like to do for a cameo so this indicates he’ll be in at least a few episodes.

“The Walking Dead” tells the story of the weeks and months that follow a pandemic zombie apocalypse. County Sheriff Rick Grimes travels with his family and a small group of survivors, constantly in search of a safe and secure home. But the constant pressure of fighting off death on a daily basis takes a heavy toll, sending many to the lowest depths of human cruelty. As Rick struggles to keep his family alive, he will discover that the overwhelming fear of the survivors can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth.

The season finale, “Beside The Dying Fire” airs tonight. What do you think is going to happen? What do you want to happen? Head inside for a preview.

‘Longlegs’ – Part Two of New Teaser Video for NEON Horror Movie Gets Even Weirder and Creepier

Published

on

Longlegs teaser

The marketing campaign for NEON’s upcoming horror movie Longlegs isn’t getting any less strange, with the second part of last week’s cryptic teaser video and poster arriving today.

Longlegs heads to theaters on July 12, 2024.

The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.

Longlegs is said to be “in the vein of classic Hollywood psychological thrillers.”

The poster is dubbed “Dirty: Part One” while the video is labeled “Dirty: Part Two,” and the latter features some new clips from the film along with a cryptic poem of sorts…

Listen loud the serpents

See the darkness slithering

Tell me what good is that body

If not for hiding shiny red parts

This mysterious teaser features Nicolas Cage, breathing and wheezing creepily over unsettling horror imagery. It refers to him as “the man downstairs.”

In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.”

Alicia Witt (“The Walking Dead”) and Blair Underwood (“American Crime Story”) also star.

The film is rated “R” for “Bloody violence, disturbing images and some language.”

Producers are Nicolas Cage along with his production company Saturn Films (The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, Pig), Dan Kagan (Significant Other), Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (Insidious), Dave Caplan (The End We Start From) and Chris Ferguson (Child’s Play).

Both halves of the cryptic Longlegs teaser played ahead of Abigail in theaters this weekend.
