Long before Christopher Reeve showed audiences that a man could fly, the cinematic legacy of Superman had already gotten a jump start from all forms of media. The strikingly fluid animation of the early '40s Max Fleischer cartoons made it feel as if you were watching an issue of "Superman" come to life. They were impressive feats for the time and, even today, still look pretty phenomenal, capturing the weight and scale of a powerful superhero living among the people. Later that same decade, Superman's first live-action appearances on the big screen arrived in the form of two serials ("Superman" and "Atom Man Vs. Superman"). Kirk Alyn, who largely went uncredited as the titular superhero, may have become an animated figure when it came to flying, but on the ground, people got to see an actual person in the suit. It would be two years after Alyn's last appearance as the Man of Steel,...

Four decades after its release, Silent Night, Deadly Night is getting reimagined. It remains to be seen if the release of the new horror film will be quite as controversial as the original movie.

Per Deadline, it has been revealed that a reboot of Silent Night, Deadly Night is in the works. The project will come from Terrifier franchise backer Cineverse, while Mike P. Nelson has been brought on board to write and direct. Original Silent Night, Deadly Night executive producers Scott Schneid and Dennis Whitehead are producing alongside Jamie R. Thompson. Reportedly, the film is aiming for a late 2025 release in theaters with plans to start filming in the near future. Cineverse will launch sales of the project at the American Film Market.

Thanksgiving is an amazing scary movie for a lot of reasons, but it...

Sixty-six years ago, Creature from the Black Lagoon director Jack Arnold teamed up with author Richard Matheson to bring Matheson’s sci-fi novel The Shrinking Man to the screen as The Incredible Shrinking Man (watch it Here). Now Deadline reports that Picture Perfect Federation Chairman Patrick Wachsberger, who was formerly the Co-Chairman of Lionsgate, is working with La Vie En Rose producer Alain Goldman on a French remake of The Incredible Shrinking Man that is set to star Jean Dujardin, who won an Oscar for his performance in the lead role of the 2012 silent film The Artist – which also happened to be the Best Picture winner that year.

The Wachsberger-produced Coda just won Best Picture last year and La Vie En Rose earned an Oscar for star Marion Cotillard, so this remake has multiple prestigious names attached to it.

Universal Pictures released The Incredible Shrinking Man in ’57 and still holds the rights to the property,...

There are a lot of Christmas horror movies out there, but the most controversial one of all was the 1984 slasher Silent Night, Deadly Night. A film that was run out of theatres by outraged parents… and then used the controversy as a foundation to build a lengthy franchise on. To celebrate the holidays this year, we here at Arrow in the Head have compiled a list of the Best Moments in the Silent Night, Deadly Night Franchise. To see what our picks were, keep scrolling. Then let us know what you would choose as the franchise’s best moments by leaving a comment below!

Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984): Visit With Grandpa

There’s no violence in this moment, but it still ranks as one of the most disturbing scenes in this franchise. Little Billy accompanies his parents on a Christmas Eve visit to his grandfather, who sits in a...

Quick…name a favorable film where the landscape is run by (or at least partially include) the demographic of little people as part of the instrumental storyline? C’mon…it should not be that difficult, okay? If you want to mention say Darby O’Gill and the Little People then that would fine. How about Bad Santa or Poltergeist for that matter?

In That’s Good Enough, Short Stuff: Top Ten Films Featuring Little People we will take a look at some of the mini megastars that inhabited these movies and contributed their fair share of entertainment value to the on-screen proceedings. The debate as to whether some of these selected films featuring these pint-sized performers are considered positive, exploitative or dismissive are not up for discussion (although one of these considerations could apply in the minds of a few folks). Instead, we want to celebrate the inclusion of...

I watched Universal's newly restored and remastered Blu-ray edition of Clint Eastwood's High Plains Drifter (10/15; Amazon) last night and before hitting play I'd actually forgot I'd seen it before until Eastwood as "The Stranger" came into view, riding into the small town of Lago where the duration of the film takes place. Released in New York 40 years ago this past April, Drifter is an interesting one when compared to today's cinema, which is hellbent on revenge whereas this is a story of retribution... or is itc The citizens of Lago are made to pay for their past misdeeds while at the same time seeking protection from a trio of gunmen they previously watched whip their own town marshal to death after he threatened to reveal their mining town was actually on government land. Riding into town looking for a whiskey, a shave and a bath, Eastwood channels his iconic...

Halfbrick has just announced the the first Dlc for their Xbla game Raskulls (which coincidentally is also Dlc) will come with four new characters: Kitten, Viking, Spaceman and Barney. Raskulls Reinforcements will also include a Grand Prix Event, called Shiny Stone Cup, which features four race levels and includes a new “Castle” environment.

Kitten – A descendant from the legendary half-cat, half-skull and half-awesome Raskulls of the Faraway Mountains, Kitten is a cute yet deadly addition to the cast. Why deadly? Ask Little Billy Bobskull, the crippled boy in the Extensive Bite n’ Scratch ward at Raskulls General.

Viking – One of King’s past rivals, Viking likes to pillage, loot and drink with the best of them. On the other hand, he’s big into haberdashery. Fine men’s suit craftsmanship does not a nice Raskull make. Spaceman – Spaceman, I always wanted you to go | into space, man. Barney – A Pirat minion of Captain J.

The guillotine was a device developed during the French Revolution and was used in carrying out thousands of executions. It consisted of an upright frame from which a sharp blade is suspended. The blade is raised with a rope and then allowed to drop, quickly severing the victim’s head from their body. In 1964, the Aurora plastics company, famous for their series of best-selling monster model kits, produced a 1/12th scale model of an actual working guillotine complete with a little victim whose head could be lopped off with the flick of a switch. Though tame compared with some items in popular culture today, parents groups at the time complained that it was warping the young minds of future baby boomers but the toy was cool and proved to be a hit. Warner Brothers studios jumped on the brief ‘Guillotine Craze’ bandwagon the next year with the juvenile horror film Two On A Guillotine,...

Oh God. Sometimes you just saunter along thinking all is well and then you have Katey Rich on the Blendcast and her appearance makes you realize just how far you have left to go as a broadcast journalist. That just happened. Good thing there.s enough references to Rick Moranis, Bill Curtis, Jonah Hill and that Zoltar Machine from Big to distract our more ignorant viewers. Listen below as Katey Rich talks about Comic Con, Trevor Clippert throws out at least ten Princess Bride quotes, Brain Carraher bitches about Phil Hellmuth and Mack Rawden lets you know what happens when a gypsy curses a pregnant woman. G-Force is also slandered with venom and virulent ire, some nice things are said about Freaks And Geeks, and we all plea for Raaaaaaaaandy to be given his own movie. Warning!: This week.s Blendcast is littered with violence against children jokes, obnoxious...
