Stephen King and J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot Productions have teased the impending arrival of a secret new Hulu project titled Castle Rock, named after the fictional Maine town that serves as the setting of many of the author's stories.

"Jj Abrams and I want to invite you to take a trip to Castle Rock. Soon. Be afraid," King warned on Twitter after the minute-long teaser was revealed.

The video that accompanied the unveiling lists the names of many of the characters, places and creatures that lurked in and around Castle Rock – Shawshank State Prison,...

No one was sure, when "The Green Mile" was released 15 years ago this week (on December 10, 1999), whether lightning could strike twice in the same spot for Frank Darabont. Sure, the writer/director's first Stephen King prison drama, 1994's "The Shawshank Redemption," had gone from commercial failure to beloved classic in five years. But another King prison tale, one that was three hours long and featured some horrific electric-chair executions, bizarre fantasy elements, and a trained mouse?

As it turned out, of course, "Green Mile" became a huge hit, earned four Oscar nominations, put another feather in star Tom Hanks's cap, and made a star of Michael Clarke Duncan, who played miracle-working, self-sacrificing inmate John Coffey. To this day, it remains the most beloved movie adapted from a King tale.

Still, as many times as you've seen it, there's plenty you may not know: how former ditch-digger Clarke got the star-making part,...

What if you were guarding a prisoner on death row who was capable of performing miracles? This is the moral dilemma guard Paul Edgecomb faces in Frank Darabont’s The Green Mile, the 1999 film based on the Stephen King serial novel of the same name. At the brink of its 15th anniversary, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced a new Diamond Luxe Anniversary Edition of the film on Blu-ray.

One of five films getting the anniversary treatment from Warner Bros. (the other four are Natural Born Killers, Forrest Gump, Gremlins and Ben-Hur), The Green Mile will be re-released on Blu-ray on September 30th. It’s unknown at this time whether the new release will include a fresh transfer, but it will come with new special features, including a longer version of the behind-the-scenes documentary. The 15th anniversary release of The Green Mile features new eye-grabbing packaging that prominently places the movie’s characters.

Clippers center Deandre Jordan faced off with an 11 foot beast this week in Los Angeles ... but instead of guarding it, he had it delivered to his home. Jordan hit up Mr. Jingles Christmas Trees in Beverly Hills to pick up an 11 ft. noble fir for $300 ... and left a fat tip when they dropped it off at his house.The best part -- Deandre posed for a pic at the X-mas lot and looked almost as tall as his tree!

The name may not immediately ring any bells, but if you like a good British horror, you’ll have almost definitely sampled the work of Paul Hyett in the past. Having worked on special effects and make up for the likes of The Descent, Attack the Block and The Woman in Black, this year’s Frightfest opened with his directorial debut The Seasoning House, a film more lyrical and less gore-filled than the SFX background and blood soaked résumé might imply.

Set in the Balkans in 1996, the film documents the grimmest of catch-22s where young girls that manage to survive the brutality of war were then forced into the nastiness of seasoning houses, brothels where girls are beaten and used for sex by pent-up passing soldiers.

A deaf mute girl (played brilliantly by Rosie Day), is orphaned by the conflict and finds herself taken to one such house. She...
