What’s Christmas without presents, candy canes and a little vigilante justice served in a Santa suit? From writer/director Mike P. Nelson comes Silent Night, Deadly Night, a reimagining of Charles Sellier’s controversial classic from 1984 [our review]. After witnessing his parents’ brutal murder at the hands of a man dressed as …

It takes a special kind of band to play for a crowd of sweaty, sunburned Warped Tour diehards less than 24 hours after charming families at Disney World’s Epcot — and make both feel equally natural. But Bowling for Soup has never been a typical band. In a year where …

I’m excited for Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 (written by Scott Cawthon and directed by Emma Tammi) not because I’m a fan of the books or games or the fandom in general, but because it reunites Matthew Lillard with his Scream costar, Skeet Ulrich (read our interview with him HERE), and …

After years of experimenting and trying to fit into the “Warped Tour pop punk” mold, he stopped chasing expectations and started confronting his own emotions — the ones he’d spent years keeping hidden. The result? lowest — a 13-track collision of post-hardcore chaos and emo-rock introspection …

Who says you can’t reinvent yourself in your 40s? Annie Davis is living proof that it’s never too late to chase your wildest dreams. In just the past few years, she’s launched a music career, shut down digital haters and tested her prowess on Survivor…all with pink hair and plenty of …
