A child star’s arc is rarely a bright one. Thrust into the public eye at a formative age, sometimes by parents who are less concerned with their kid’s wellbeing than they are the size of their paychecks, an actor can succumb to all the tropes of drugs, excess, and mental breakdowns by the time are old enough to drive.…

Cult hero and Australian rave icon Partiboi69 is here to steam up your windows with “Bathe With Me,” a booming, synth-driven ode to the old adage that “you gotta be dirty to get clean.” The song’s accompanying video is as strange as any in the wanton artist’s oeuvre, but comes with the addition of offbeat editing by …

Disney already ran Star Wars into the ground and hasn’t gotten around to rebooting Indiana Jones yet, which means it needs to go in another direction if it wants to squeeze some more sweet cash out of Lucasfilm, but since nobody remembers Strange Magic and Scott Derrickson is already making a new Labyrinth, that…

In December, we reported that The End Of The F***ing World creator Jonathan Entwistle, who just saw his I Am Not Okay With This canceled at Netflix, will be the next brave soul to try and bring the Power Rangers back to the mainstream. Today, The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that the creator’s plans extend far…

High school rites of passage have a way of bringing communities together (Friday Night Lights, anyone?), and Midnight In Paris, which follows a group of Michigan teenagers during the five days leading up to their prom, has faith in our nostalgia and empathy. Filmmakers Roni Moore and James Blagden keep their focus…

Watch This offers movie recommendations inspired by new releases, premieres, current events, or occasionally just our own inscrutable whims. This week: With Ben Wheatley’s take on Rebecca in theaters and en route to Netflix, we’re singling out other Hitchcockian thrillers—ones that explicitly recall the master of…

Phil Collins wasn’t thinking about Orianne Cevey when he sang about a woman with “the built-in ability to take everything she sees,” but he may as well have been. According to Miami Dade County court documents shared by The Miami Herald, the rocker’s ex-wife has commandeered his $33 million South Florida mansion with…

Kaley Cuoco, free at last from The Big Bang Theory’s stinky nerds, is leaving on a jet plane for her next series. The Flight Attendant, an HBO Max series based on Chris Bohjalian’s novel, stars the actor as an airline employee who, after a fling with a hunky passenger, finds herself at the center of a murder…

Note: This article discusses the ending of Netflix’s The Haunting Of Bly Manor, as well as the ending of the fifth episode of Hulu’s Monsterland.

If your Halloween ritual involves watching It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! while disemboweling an actual pumpkin (you sick fucks), then you should probably know that things will be a little different this year—but that’s okay because you’re used to everything being different this year, so what’s one more stupid…

Japanese amusement park Yomuriland, like other notable parks across the world, doesn’t want to let a little pandemic get in the way of business. While we’re familiar with the way this sort of thing has functioned so far this year—like, say, the Evil Mouse Corp encouraging visitors not to cancel their vacation plans by …

As if Netflix’s cancellation of GLOW wasn’t upsetting enough already (in THIS year of ALL YEARS are you OUT OF YOUR MINDS), we’ve now learned that season four was likely aiming to address some of the cast’s (and viewers’) concerns about the show’s handling of storylines involving women of color. GLOW star Sunita Mani…

Good morning. Many of you might already be aware, but it bears repeating that yesterday a certain story broke involving the proper nouns “Jeffrey Toobin” and “Zoom Dick.” It was a lot to process on multiple levels, but the gist is this: Last week, noted CNN and The New Yorker legal analyst Toobin, while participating…

If your favorite part about Seinfeld was the characters’ general indifference to anything that didn’t advance their own craven desires, well, we have some bad news.

Heads up, Encyclopedia Brown-heads: The time has come for your dark cinematic adaptation—At least, sort of. In The Kid Detective, Adam Brody plays Abe Applebaum, a Brown-like sleuth who, in his youth, solved more than 200 cases in his Pleasantville-like town, including the case of the missing fundraising lockbox and…

There’s a feature of old Irish folktales, which is the notion of a land somewhat parallel to our own that belongs to a magical, beautiful, aristocratic, and frequently cold and remote people called the fae. It’s over the hill and around the bend, or in the vicinity of an ancient barrow, or across the ocean—somewhere…

Now that almost 20 years have passed since we were given the last installment of the Austin Powers movies, we’re becoming worried that the world is beginning to forget the monumental scope of Mike Myers’ greatest contribution to cinema. Actor and comedian Lisa Gilroy, thankfully, continues to carry the torch. She…

The first season of HBO’s The Vow, an emotional exploration of the NXIVM cult, ends with the tease of an interview with NXIVM founder Keith Raniere, a man whose banal cruelty undulates beneath layers of self-help hooey. The man also known as Vanguard was arrested on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering at the…

In internet time, a decade ago may as well be the Jurassic, buried under layers of verbal history and sometimes impenetrable memes. For fans of Allie Brosh’s diary webcomic and subsequent book Hyperbole And A Half, they’ve waited nearly that long to see a second installment. Though she published a lot of her life on…

Sacha Baron Cohen is bringing his signature(?) character of Borat Sagdiyev back to what passes for theaters these days (it premieres on Amazon Prime on October 23), with a trailer promising there are still some people in America who aren’t in on the scabrously revealing joke. Appearing on Monday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live,…

Anya Taylor-Joy has only been acting in film and television since 2014, yet she’s already amassed a filmography with a breadth and pedigree that would be impressive for an actor twice her age. Since making her debut as the lead character in Robert Eggers’ period-piece horror film The Witch, she’s gone on to deliver…

Here’s what’s happening in the world of television for Tuesday, October 20. All times are Eastern. 

A consistent strength of We Are Who We Are has been its ability to give very high stakes to very low-stakes situations. It deftly and somewhat unnervingly captures the oscillating highs and lows of youth. The boredom, the mania, the explosion of feelings without a place to put them. The show finds intimacy and urgency…

The first trailer for season two of Disney+’s The Mandalorian was all about establishing the season’s new quest, which involves trying to get Baby Yoda/The Child back to “its own kind” and will require the Mandalorian to meet up with an extinct order of wizards called the Jedi that were basically all over the place…

With the aptly named final chapter “Last Day—The Dark,” The Third Day comes to an end, which begins right at the moment where Helen meets Sam on a dock outside the Big House. Sam wastes no time catching Helen up with what’s happened to him over the past several months. After all, he did walk out on her and their two…
