WandaVision Knows What It’s Doing, But the Scarlet Witch Doesn’t

As WandaVision’s been carefully dropping nostalgic breadcrumbs along the winding narrative path leading to grandmother’s house where the truth lives, the show’s been playing not-so-subtle tricks of the mind meant to make you wonder who the villain of it all truly is. All signs up to this point have pointed to Wanda herself being the…

Dark Phoenix Is a Bittersweet Goodbye to Fox’s X-Men

Simon Kinberg’s Dark Phoenix became one of the most significant of Fox’s X-Men films the moment it became clear it would be the last installment in the franchise that set the stage for the modern comic book movie boom. Not only was the film going to bring the story of Charles Xavier’s mutant heroes to…

The X-Men’s Quicksilver Speeds Into Space in This Surprisingly Cool Dark Phoenix Clip

Evan Peters’ Quicksilver in Fox’s most recent X-Men films has been one of the franchise’s most interesting characters, in part because of the innovative way filmmakers have taken to visualizing his super speed. Dark Phoenix wouldn’t be a proper X-Men sendoff without the silver-haired speed demon, and in a new clip from the film, he…

American Horror Story Gives Us a Slasher Fright With Its Season 9 Reveal

FX’s American Horror Story: Apocalypse took us back to the beginning of the horror series, with throwbacks to the murder house, hotel, and our favorite coven of witches. Now that the series is starting back up with its ninth season, the time has come to figure out what new horrors are in store. To move…

American Horror Story: Cult Finally Revealed Its Villain’s Ridiculous Motivation

It’s been a trying season of American Horror Story, overloaded with smugly on-the-nose commentary about the Trump era, gratuitous re-enactments of cults throughout history, and characters you wish would just die already. Last night’s penultimate episode revealed the sketchy motivation of alt-right fuckboy Kai Anderson (Evan Peters). But at this point, why should we care?…

American Horror Story: Cult‘s First Real Trailer Preys on Trump-Era Terrors

Finally—after weeks of surreal teasers and yesterday’s opening-credits reveal, which actually revealed nothing—we have a real trailer for American Horror Story: Cult. Sarah Paulson’s bloodcurdling shriek upon realizing that Donald Trump has been elected president is truly terrifying. And relatable. Evan Peters humping his TV in what appears to be manic joy in reaction to…

Fox’s Quicksilver Mourns for Disney’s Quicksilver

For a brief shining moment, both the X-Men franchise (owned by Fox) and the Marvel’s cinematic universe (owned by Disney) had Quicksilvers in their movies. But, tragically, there ended up being only room for one of them. Speaking to Yahoo, Evan Peters, the surviving Quicksilver, mourned the loss of his Marvel compatriot: I was devastated…

The Lazarus Effect Could Make Mad Science Scary Again

Mad scientists have existed since the beginning of cinema, and The Lazarus Effect has zero problem borrowing from earlier films. It also snatches crumbs from The Exorcist and Paranormal Activity, among others. But! It’s got an unusually good cast, fast pacing, and some decent frights. Minor spoilers follow. The obvious comparison here is Joel Schumacher’s…

The Lazarus Effect Trailer Will Get You Excited About Mad Science Again

We really enjoyed the trailer for The Lazarus Effect. It’s got a handful of our favorite actors messing around with mad science and things they shouldn’t be, conjuring up all sorts of problems. Watch. This was the first we’d heard of this horror movie until the trailer dropped, but so far so good. It feels…

How Days Of Future Past Pulled Off Those Amazing Quicksilver VFX

One of the coolest special effects in X-Men: Days of Future Past was the Quicksilver “frozen time” effect where the character is moving so quickly that everything around him seems to move in super slow-motion. In this video, director Bryan Singer explains how they achieved the effect. Unfortunately, this video doesn’t go into quite as…

X-Men: Days of Future Past‘s Quicksilver WILL have silver hair

Good news for X-Men fans who really want Bryan Singer’s new X-Men movie to adhere to the comics: Quicksilver will appear on film with his trademark silver locks. We spoke with the new Quicksilver, Evan Peters, about life as a 1970s mutant. He told us about filming in Singer’s crazy new 3600 frame-per-second cameras. Bryan…
