“Black Panther” director, Ryan Coogler, recently recalled his final conversation with Chadwick Boseman, who played the titular Marvel superhero.
Appearing on the Nov. 3 episode of the “Wakanda Forever: The Official Black Panther Podcast”, Coogler said: “My last conversation with him was calling to ask if he wanted to read [the script] before I got notes from the studio.
“That was the last time we spoke. He passed maybe a couple weeks after I finished,” he continued, referring to the script for the film’s sequel, “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever”, which hits theatres on Nov. 11.
Coogler went on to note that Boseman sounded tired through the phone.
“I could tell he was laying down when we were talking,” he said, adding that Boseman’s wife, Simone Ledward Boseman, was also present during their call. “He kicked Simone out because he told her he didn’t want her to hear nothing that could get...

Written and directed by Jean-Paul Ouellette, based on the story from legendary horror author H.P. Lovecraft, The Unnamable is one of those films that passed me by growing up. I knew about the film, mainly thanks to the 1992 sequel – released in the UK as The Unnamable Returns – which was heavily, and I do mean heavily, promoted upon it’s release. Hell, it seemed like every movie magazine I read (remember those days?) had ads for The Unnamable Returns and every VHS rental had a trailer for the movie. But at the time I could never track down the original film and I never caught the film on DVD… So this Blu-ray release, from Unearthed Films, is a first-time watch for me.

College students from Miskatonic University who retreat to an early 18th-century mansion for a weekend of lust are stalked by a fatalistic female. The demon delights in tearing the limbs off her human victims to carry out a centuries-old family curse.

Los Angeles — Film fans everywhere can identify that movie-trailer voice: A booming baritone that entices viewers with cryptic explanations of the latest upcoming epic.
The business behind such voice work is the backdrop of Lake Bell's new film, "In A World...," of which she is writer, director and star.
Real voice-over artists – the men and women who've spent years invisibly announcing the latest Taco Bell temptation, the promise of Firestone tires or upcoming Lifetime programs – say it's good to watch their profession being acknowledged on screen, even if the portrayal isn't perfect.
"It was fun to have that be a thing – that voice-over even got mentioned," said actor Steve Staley after seeing the film. "It was great to see our field get screen time in a realistic way," added Staley, who gives voice to cartoon and video-game characters and commercials.

The weather in Portland turned on October 1st, from clear skies bathing the city with sunshine to cloudy with a chill in the air.
It seemed like perfect to witness the end of a yearly Rose City tradition. For fifteen years, the first weekend in October brought legions of fans to The H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival. But the crowd gathering in the Hollywood Theater would not only celebrate Cosmic Horror in film and literature, but also bear witness to the festival's last Portland gathering. Festival director Andrew Migliore, having used up all his 'sanity points', was calling this year his last.
Such sad news did not deter the fans packed into the Hollywood Theater. The vendor room was hot and muggy as people circled around tables full of books, artwork, t-shirts and all manner of tentacled merchandise. I took a quick look, but rushed into the upper left theater...
