The Predator is still in production, and in case you forgot that the franchise resurrection is actually happening, director Shane Black is here to remind you. The filmmaker, who co-starred in the 1987 original, took to Twitter on March 30 to share a photo from the set, and it’s giving us serious flashbacks...
Just about every franchise is being resurrected and rebooted these days, from sci-fi flicks like Tomb Raider and Predator to sitcoms such as Roseanne and Will and Grace. Sometimes these revivals work, sometimes they don’t, but they almost always generate lots of interest — especially when they come out of left field like Bill...
It may seem hard to believe, but a Duke Nukem movie is apparently actually happening. The video game character’s heyday was in the ’90s, and questions remain about just how well the stripper-loving antihero will translate in the #MeToo era, but that isn’t stopping Platinum Dunes’ Andrew Form and Brad Fuller from plowing ahead...
Remember ROM the Space Knight? Like many ’80s properties, ROM began as a toy line before gaining wider frame outside the toy realm. In his case, it was in the pages of Marvel Comics where he really came into his own, but now the character is finally set to make the leap to the...
Pacific Rim Uprising has finally hit theaters, and the film has been relatively successful, essentially making back its production budget in its first week of release. That’s good news for the franchise, as it suggests that we may see more of the Jaegers in the future, but one interesting place where they could pop...
It’s been a while since there’s been a Friday the 13th movie, almost a decade in fact. The franchise last appeared on the big screen in the poorly-received 2009 reboot, Friday the 13th. After that, another reboot was planned for an October 13, 2017 release, but was abruptly canceled last year. Since then, it’s...
Among many horror aficionados, 1973’s The Exorcist is still considered to be the scariest movie ever made. Its depiction of demonic possession is downright horrifying, but fans could at least take comfort in the fact that it was only a movie — or was it? A new documentary, The Devil and Father Amorth,...
We love a good old-fashioned creature feature here at COMET, in case you couldn’t tell, but they’re not as prevalent as they used to be. Decades ago, it wasn’t hard to find horror flicks featuring giant ants or frogs, but these days they’re increasingly rare. Which is why we’re so thankful that Boar exists....
The new anime Godzilla franchise is progressing rapidly, and after recently learning about the release date of the series’ next installment, we can now report on the official English title and actual plot of the film. According to Godzilla-Movies.com, the sequel to Godzilla: Monster Planet (called simply Godzilla in the U.S.) will be...
To date, there have been a total of seven installments in the horror/dark comedy franchise Leprechaun. After the classic and campy 1993 original, the series went to stranger and stranger places, with the diabolical Irish faerie taking trips to outer space and “the hood” (twice). Now, the franchise is going back to its roots...
