Hey bro/sis, I know that we’ve had some sibling rivalry over the years and maybe we didn’t always get along. But listen, I want to make it up to you! So I got little Jimmy and Suzie a new toy set! I just figured that it’d be nice for them to get something fun that will possibly help SELL THEIR SOUL TO THE DEVIL! THAT’S WHAT YOU GET FOR TELLING MOM ABOUT THE TIME I SNUCK OUT OF THE HOUSE, YOU TATTLING ASSHOLE!

AHEM! Sorry about that!

Below is a charming little video from YouTuber Stinkhead who created a playset inspired by Robert Eggers’ critically acclaimed period horror film The Witch! The faux-set comes with the whole family and the now wildly popular goat Black Phillip! Because when it comes to playing with toys, who can resist headbutting the SHIT out of the parent figures, am I right?

Below is the “commercial”, which is rather endearing and darkly comical!

Dev Patel’s ‘Monkey Man’ Is Now Available to Watch at Home!

After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.

You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!

Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.

Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”

“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.

She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
