The Shudder streaming series The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs is currently deep into its seventh season – and now, for the first time, the show is set to receive a physical media release! Fans recently started noticing listings for The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs Blu-rays and DVDs showing up on sites like Amazon and Target – but there wasn’t accurate artwork, so it was a mystery what this 4 hour and 55 minute release would be. Now, the proper artwork has been unveiled, revealing that this is a double feature of the Joe Lynch-directed films Suitable Flesh and Mayhem! This double feature is set to be released on October 14th… and it appears to be limited quantity, because Amazon is currently sold out of the Blu-ray edition. Hopefully they’ll be restocking soon.

When it comes to Adam Sandler movies, I’m probably more of a Billy Madison guy, but I like Happy Gilmore too. I saw it in the theater opening weekend, bought it on DVD and have subsequently watched it again many times. So you have to understand this is coming from someone who isn’t a snob and was prepared to like Happy Gilmore 2. I laughed once.

I’m not opposed to a sequel, either. Neighbors 2 heightens the (also great) original. Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me brought us one of Heather Graham’s most charming performances. But Happy Gilmore 2 isn’t only a retread of the original movie: it’s also… depressing?

Happy Gilmore does, to be fair, have a bummer premise: Happy finds out the grandmother who raised him (the late Frances Bay) owes $270,000 in back taxes; she will lose her...

Last year, veteran character actor Louis Gossett Jr, who got his acting start in Broadway productions back in 1950s (including Take a Giant Step and a 1959 production of A Raisin in the Sun where he shared the stage with Sidney Poitier), passed away at 87. While we have to get used to the fact that our favorite actors are all human, and like all of us, eventually pass away, it can’t help but hurt anytime we lose a legend like this. But he leaves behind a rich legacy, so let’s look back at five of his coolest roles.

Louis Gossett Jr. won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Gunnery Sergeant Emil Foley in this, and became the first African-American actor to win an Academy Award in that category in the process. Next to R. Lee Ermey in Full Metal Jacket,...

Daniel Radcliffeis best known as the titular hero of Harry Potter to many fans around the world.However, once the actor completed the eight-part movie saga, he turned his attention to more niche and meaningful roles across various genres. While some remember him for his villainous turn in The Lost City, and more recently starring in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, one of his underrated horror films will soon be streaming for free.

Per Cbr, Hornswill debut on Pluto TV later this month, just in time for the (early) spooky season run. The movie is adapted from Joe Hill’s (Stephen King’s son) novel of the same name, which follows Radcliffe's character Ignatius "Ig" Perrish, who becomes the prime suspect when his girlfriend is sexually assaulted and killed. While the entire town shuns him, thinking he’s the culprit, things take a turn when he wakes up one morning...

Daniel Radcliffe's most defining role so far has been the titular part in the Harry Potter film series. However, after the series ended in 2011, he ventured into different genres, including horror. In 2013, he starred in the adaptation of Stephen King's son Joe Hill's 2010 novel Horns.

The comedy-fantasy-horror was not a success in theaters, debuting with mixed reviews. Now, fans have a new chance to discover the fantasy horror, as Horns is officially heading to streaming for free on Pluto TV starting July 21, per theManchester Evening News.

Arrow Films is giving the 1998 space adventure Lost In Space the fancy 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray treatment this September.

In 1998, mini-major studio New Line bet a considerable sum of money on Lost In Space – a slick update of the 1960s space adventure series of the same name. Giving it a then-considerable $80m budget, New Line hired a cast of none-more-90s actors for the cast, including Matt LeBlanc from Friends and Boogie Nights’ Heather Graham, while the soundtrack includes music from Apollo 440, Fatboy Slim and Propellerheads.

About a dysfunctional family of interstellar travellers who – you guessed it – become lost in space, the film wasn’t much of a hit with audiences or critics, but it remains a fascinating pop culture artefact from the end of the 20th century. Gary Oldman’s good value as the nefarious Doctor Zachary Smith (“The pain! The pain!”), there’s some smooth, almost pebble-like production design,...

“Lost in Space” is back from the darkest recesses of the cosmos.

Arrow Video, one of the great boutique home video labels, is bringing Stephen Hopkins’ 1998 space opera, based on Irwin Allen’s 1965 television series, back with a deluxe 4K Uhd package stuffed with special features this September. And as part of the release, Arrow has created a modern-style trailer, which you can watch below.

If you never saw “Lost in Space” when it was originally released, it smartly repurposed many elements from the original series – the robot, the villainous Doctor Smith (played here by a mustache-twirling Gary Oldman) and the Robinson family – while adding more twists and turns. If the original series was “Swiss Family Robinson” in space, this was considerably more complex. And much of that should be given to Hopkins, who was one of the more underrated auteurs of the decade, consistently bringing audiences thrilling, visually inventive popcorn movies.

Keanu Reeves has starred in romances, comedies, monster movies, Shakespeare productions, sci-fi spectaculars, action bonanzas, time travel films, addiction dramas, horror flicks, hengehog adventures, shoot-em-ups, and at least one "SpongeBob" movie. Although he doesn't possess a lot of range as an actor, his personal sense of devotion -- not to mention his relentless decency as a human being -- has fans coming back again and again. He has always seemed interested in variety in his career, equally at peace acting in major blockbusters and tiny low-budget dramas. He has also seemingly valued working with quirky, interesting directors, having acted for the Wachowskis, Ron Howard, Stephen Frears, Kathryn Bigelow, Francis Ford Coppola, Bernardo Bertolucci, Kenneth Branagh, Sam Raimi, Eli Roth, Ana Lily Amirpour, Nicholas Winding Refn, and Alex Winter. 

In the early '90s, Reeves made two films with Gus Van Sant, then considered a new voice on the ever-expanding indie movie scene.

What Do We Know About the upcoming series adaptation of Stephen King’s novel Carrie? More than you may think. The Prime Video series from The Life of Chuck and The Haunting of Hill House filmmaker Mike Flanagan is set to be his fourth take on a work by King. From plot, casting news, and more, let’s dive in and look at what is coming up in the adaptation of the classic horror novel.

Why another remake of Carrie?

Despite Brian De Palma’s 1976 adaptation remaining a classic horror film, multiple variations of Stephen King’s debut novel have made their way to audiences. From a sequel in 1999 to remakes in both 2002 and 2013, as well as a stage musical, Flanagan’s series takes a “bold and timely reimagining” of the book. What this entails remains to be seen. But, we do know that Flanagan has a reverence for Stephen...

The Mike Flanagan’s Carrie news doesn’t stop coming! Hot on the heels of the announcement that Heather Graham, Kate Siegel, and Cassandra Naud were among the latest cast in the upcoming Prime Video series, Flanagan himself has shared that filming is underway for his take on the iconic text by horror maestro Stephen King.

The announcement came in the form of an Instagram post from Flanagan, featuring a single image of the first slate and a caption that simply reads, “And we’re off.”

Stephen King’s original 1974 novel Carrie is the story of Carrie White, a teenage girl subjected to constant abuse both by her peers and by her extremely religious mother. When she gets her first period, the telekinetic powers she’s secretly had since she was a child start to grow.

Carrie, the subject of author Stephen King’s first published novel and one of the greatest female icons in the horror genre, is coming back – and this time Mike Flanagan is the one taking her to prom. It was announced last October that Flanagan was working with King to turn the story of Carrie into an eight episode series that will be released through Amazon’s Prime Video service. Flanagan is executive producing the series with Trevor Macy. Deadline noted at the time, “They’re opening a writer’s room, so this one’s happening quickly.” Since then, the show received the official greenlight from Prime Video and has been assembling its cast. Just last week, we heard that filming would begin in a matter of days – and sure enough, Flanagan started the week by confirming that filming has begun!

The confirmation comes in the form of a clapperboard picture...

A new take on Stephen King’s Carrie is in production as an eight-episode series for Amazon Prime Video, led by director Mike Flanagan.

Known for adapting King’s Gerald’s Game, Doctor Sleep, and The Life of Chuck, Flanagan is updating the 1974 novel for today’s audience. The story, first brought to the screen by Brian De Palma in 1976 and remade in 2002 and 2013, centers on Carrie White, a bullied teen with telekinetic powers.

Now Flanagan posted a new BTS photo of the set confirming that the show is in production:

A new version of Stephen King’s classic novel Carrie is currently being made, and fans just got a sneak peek behind the scenes. The original Carrie was King’s first published book back in 1974, and it quickly became a famous horror movie directed by Brian De Palma.

Since then, it has been remade a couple of times, including a TV movie in 2002 and a film in 2013.

Now, Mike Flanagan, known for adapting other King works like Gerald’s Game, Doctor Sleep, and The Life of Chuck, is bringing Carrie back as a new eight-episode series for Amazon Prime Video. The project was first announced in October 2024, with a writers’ room created to develop the story further.

The word “sleep” is simply not part of Mike Flanagan’s vocabulary. Just days after his latest film, The Life of Chuck, celebrated its wide release, the director is back at it again with yet another Stephen King adaptation. This time, he’s returning to the small screen for what will be his first series-pairing with Prime Video in a fresh telling of the horror author’s debut novel, Carrie. Taking to his Instagram to share the good news, Flanagan posted an image of a clapperboard doused in blood with the production’s logo overtop. In the caption, he wrote, “And we’re off #dayone #carrie.” A slew of famous folks flocked to the comments to show their support, with names like Josh Ruben (Heart Eyes), Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad), and Jack Quaid (The Boys) cheering Flanagan on from the sidelines.

Mike Flanagan is a horror maestro, especially when it comes to bringing the literary works of Stephen King to life on screen. Now he’s tackling Carrie in an eight-episode series adaptation for Amazon. While the principal cast was already announced, we’ve now learned about the cast of recurring characters appearing on the show, including quite a few Flanagan regulars.

Kate Siegel, Michael Trucco (Hush), Katee Sackhoff (Oculus), Rahul Kohli (Midnight Mass), Crystal Balint (The Fall Of The House Of Usher), and Danielle Klaudt (The Fall Of The House Of Usher), who have all collaborated with Flanagan in the past, will appear in Carrie. But that’s not all!

Heather Graham will also play a role in the series, along with Tim Bagley (Grace and Frankie), Tahmoh Penikett (Battlestar Galactica), Mapuana Makia (Doogie Kamealoha M.D.), Naika Toussaint (Van Helsing), Delainey Hayles (Interview with the Vampire), Cassandra Naud (Influencer), and newcomer Rowan Danielle.

Mike Flanagan is assembling his cast for his upcoming adaptation of Carrie, and he’s bringing back a lot of familiar faces for the horror series!

He has quickly made his name as a modern-day master of horror. He wrote and directed several films like Oculus, Ouija, Gerald’s Game, and Doctor Sleep. Flanagan has really made his mark on television with his Netflix series The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass, The Midnight Club, and The Fall of the House of Usher.

Each project was inventive, scary, thought-provoking, and boasting a first-rate cast to win over viewers. They ranged from adapting works like Edgar Allen Poe to more original storylines while still enthralling those watching.

Now, Flanagan is ready to take on a famous property in Carrie. The upcoming eight-episode Prime Video series will star Summer Howell in the title role of a troubled teen.

Mike Flanagan is working on another Stephen King project: Carrie. The filmmaker has a vast history with the horror author, and, after the recently released The Life of Chuck, he's already at work on the Carrie TV show.

Early this month, Summer Howell was announced in the titular role, as previously rumored. Alongside her announcement were two returning Flanaverse actors. Now Deadline reports that the Carrie cast has announced 14 more members, including some familiar names from Flanagan's previous works.

The two previous Flanaverse actors were Matthew Lillard, who stars in The Life of Chuck, and Samantha Sloyan. Lillard first collaborated with Flanagan on The Life of Chuck, and is set to play Principal Grayle, as previously revealed in early May. Meanwhile, Sloyan has been a part of multiple projects, including The Fall of the House of Usher, Midnight Mass, The Midnight Club, and Hush. She is set to play Carrie's mom.

14 recurring guest stars have joined “Carrie,” Mike Flanagan‘s series adaptation of Stephen King‘s 1974 novel for Prime Video.

Flanagan will reunite with frequent collaborators Kate Siegel, Michael Trucco, Katee Sackhoff, Rahul Kohli, Crystal Balint, and Danielle Klaudt on the project.

New additions to his circle include Heather Graham (Boogie Nights), Tim Bagley (“Grace and Frankie”), Tahmoh Penikett (“Battlestar Galactica”), Mapuana Makia (“Doogie Kamealoha M.D.”), Naika Toussaint (“Van Helsing”), Delainey Hayles (“Interview with the Vampire”), Cassandra Naud (Influencer), and newcomer Rowan Danielle.

Natasha Lyonne has always been an artist who marches to the beat of her own drum. First emerging as a teen star in films like “But I’m a Cheerleader,” she has developed into one of Hollywood’s top hyphenates after co-creating and leading the Netflix time loop comedy “Russian Doll” and the Peacock mystery series “Poker Face.” Her gravelly, unapologetically intellectual persona has become truly iconic, and she continues to prove her ability to apply it to multiple genres.

That unique versatility earned her the Maverick Award at the 2025 IndieWire Honors. While she was unable to attend the ceremony in person, Fred Armisen accepted the award on her behalf.

“Natasha couldn’t be here tonight, but she really wishes she were here,” Armisen said. “But on behalf of Natasha, she said thank you all so much and she loves you all.”

But while Lyonne wasn’t on hand to address the audience in person,...

The 1990s are having a moment, a quarter of a century (yikes!?) since we welcomed the new millennium. Maybe it's merely millennials sipping the sweet nectar of nostalgia, "kids these days" having an archaeological-like fascination with the past, or our collective desire to remember the last time the world wasn't constantly ending (except on the big screen). Whatever the reason, it's also worth noting the '90s were also a terrific time for movies.

It was the last decade before Hollywood completely sold its soul to serialized slop. Sure, the film industry has long fawned at the feet of franchises, but get this: in the '90s, only a handful of sequels led the end-of-year box office, while Best Picture-winners even topped the domestic box office twice. Beyond the box office, the decade saw the apex of the indie film movement, "grown up" movies still being made for theaters, and...

On June 5, the IndieWire Honors Spring 2025 ceremony will celebrate the creators and stars responsible for some of the most impressive and engaging work of this TV season. Curated and selected by IndieWire’s editorial team, IndieWire Honors is a celebration of the creators, artisans, and performers behind television well worth toasting. We’re showcasing their work with new interviews leading up to the Los Angeles event.

A conversation with Natasha Lyonne is to experience a gravel-voiced one-woman film school with a carousel of cultural references that range from “The Long Goodbye” to Lou Reed to quantum physics.

But what makes Lyonne singular (and why she’s being recognized with the Maverick Award at this season’s IndieWire Honors) is more than her encyclopedic mind or her distinct creative stamp. It’s her ability to turn lived experience into genre-busting, soul-searching, radically original storytelling.

In a TV landscape dominated by serialization,...

Gia Coppola will be honored by Italy’s Filming Italy Sardegna festival where “The Last Showgirl” director will receive the event’s Women Power Excellence Award.

In a statement Tiziana Rocca – the marketing guru and current Taormina Film Festival chief who also heads the event in the Italian island of Sardinia – praised Coppola as a fresh voice in international auteur cinema who has been able to depict “with a unique and deep look the contradictions of the human soul and the transformations of contemporary society.”

“Her presence is a source of great pride for our festival and a tangible sign of the increasingly strong link between American cinema and our country,” Rocca added.

Following Wish You Were Here’s release, the actor answers your questions about Sunday roasts, being kept on her toes by Paul Greengrass and especially villainous villains

Hi Julia. What’s it like being directed by Paul Greengrass with his fast-cut, handheld camera, reportage style? Do you have to approach your acting in a different way? HighPriest1967

Paul is an extraordinary director, a visionary director, and I absorbed so much by watching him work. He comes from documentary, so even though he was filming these elaborate, very expensive, complicated action sequences, he was still able to see things happening spontaneously. I remember when we were shooting The Bourne Ultimatum in Tangier, running through those windy streets. Normally as an actor, you turn a corner and you think you’re off camera, so you’d stop. But you could never do that with Paul because there might be a camera around the corner.

Heather Graham was frequently cast as the sexpot in comedy movies, and eventually she began to tire of being seen as just one thing. She's experienced a lot in Hollywood, and she knows full well the industry isn't always good for women.

She talked to The Guardian about her career recently. “I related to the awkward romantic comedy heroines more than to the glam characters. Sometimes, I felt like I wasn’t being seen for my intelligence or other qualities," she mused. But even more on her mind was how much Hollywood skewed to the male demographic.

“Most movies are financed based on a male actor attaching themselves,” she told the newspaper, “and if it’s not a male-driven story – if the guy’s not this hero, like killing all these people and saving everyone’s lives – it’s sometimes harder to get men to attach. Every independent movie is...

The actor has seen the best and worst of Hollywood, from directors like Paul Thomas Anderson to the notorious Harvey Weinstein. She talks about her #MeToo moment, her difficult childhood and her new movie, Chosen Family

For almost all her life, Heather Graham says, she was a “people pleaser”. It was encouraged in childhood, she says, this obligation to put others’ needs above her own, and it endured even after the 1997 film Boogie Nights had made her a star and she had severed all contact with her “judgmental, authoritarian” parents.

Now 55, Graham was in her 40s before she recognised her self-sabotaging tendencies, and tried to correct course. “I realised, no, actually I can just ask myself, ‘What do I want?’ and make myself happy,” she says over Zoom from her home in Los Angeles. “I wish I could have had this when I was 20 or 15. If I wasn’t trying to please other people,...

Back in 1982, Barbara Hershey starred in a horror film called The Entity, which was based on the story of Doris Bither, “a hard-working single mother whose life becomes a nightmare when she is attacked in her bedroom by someone – or something – that she cannot see.” Now, Deadline reports that Heather Graham is set to star in a horror film called Entity Within – which is also based on the Doris Blither story!

Alliance Media Partners represent world sales on the project and will be presenting it to potential buyers at the upcoming Cannes Market. Gvn Releasing is producing the film and will be handling U.S. distribution. Steven Schneider produces alongside German Michael Torres.

Nick Simon (The Girl in the Photographs) is directing Entity Within from a screenplay by Thomas Fenton, who worked on the script for Saw IV. The story is set in 1974 suburban Los Angeles, where a single mother...

The 1980s was a tremendous decade for horror movies. We saw the birth of new icons, and were treated to a plethora of practical effects from filmmakers who pushed the limits of acceptable taste. Yet sandwiched in between the likes of Freddy Kruger, Jason Voorhees, and effects wizard Tom Savini was perhaps one of the best supernatural horror movies ever made that doesn't get nearly the love that it should. Maybe now it will get the recognition it deserves thanks to star Heather Graham, who is set to lead a new spin on the true story that inspired 1982's The Entity.

Deadline reports that Graham is set to lead Entity Within, which comes by way of Insidious and Paranormal Activity producer Steven Schneider. Directed by Nick Simon, the film isn't a remake in the traditional sense, but rather a new look at one of the most documented paranormal cases in...
