This week, the Cinemaholics saw Only the Brave and they’re more than ready to talk about the movie, which is based on true events surrounding the Granite Mountain Hotshots. Starring Josh Brolin, Miles Teller, Jeff Bridges and Jennifer Connelly, this is a biographical drama full of some big surprises, and we definitely recommend that you see it before digging into the real story.
Elsewhere on the show, Jon, Will and Maveryke also talk about The Snowman, starring Michael Fassbender and Rebecca Ferguson and directed by Tomas Alfredson. Based on the seventh novel of a series of detective stories by Jo Nesbø, The Snowman hasn’t exactly taken the critics or audiences by storm (and don’t get us started on Geostorm), so sit back and hear Will’s thoughts on how the David Fincher knockoff plays out.
Following that, Jon and Maveryke rave about Fincher’s work in Mindhunter Season 1, now on Netflix,...

Patton Oswalt is recounting the tragic day he found his wife, Michelle McNamara, dead — and speculating that the cause of her death might have been related to an overdose.
In a heartbreaking interview with The New York Times, the 47-year-old comic described what he calls “the second worst day of his life” — the first being when he had to tell their 7-year-old daughter, Alice, that her mother had died.
McNamara, 46, was writing a book about a serial rapist and killer at the time — working long days and nights to solve the crimes of the person she had coined “The Golden State Killer.

Sofia Coppola's teen burglars bling home the bacon – but her dad goes straight to DVD. Plus the latest streaming action…
Here's a suitably alarming story for Halloween: Francis Ford Coppola, the man responsible for Apocalypse Now and the Godfather trilogy, is now a director of straight-to-dvd horror. All right, it's not as bad as all that. His latest film, Twixt (Metrodome, 15), has languished on the shelf since premiering at the Toronto festival two years ago, too eccentrically auteurist to catch the recent wave of vampire-movie mania and too schlocky for the arthouses. Bundled on to DVD in time for the spooky season, it emerges as a daft but sporadically endearing curio, a sort of Midnight in Paris with filed fangs.
Val Kilmer, whose newly parachute-like face is quite the most frightening thing here, is a "bargain-basement Stephen King" who stumbles upon a small-town murder that may or may not...

FEARnet is proud to reprint this rare interview – originally printed in the 2013 World Horror Convention Souvenir Program Book (which was limited to only a few hundred copies) – with kind permission from Paul Goat Allen. In just five short years, John Joseph Adams has risen from relative obscurity to become one of the most renowned (and sought after) editors in all of genre fiction. His name has become synonymous with excellence. As a book critic who has spent the last 20 years reviewing science fiction, fantasy, and horror, very few releases truly excite me anymore – but when an anthology with Adams’s name on it lands on my doorstep, I’m instantly thrilled. He has put together some of the strongest anthologies I’ve ever read (and I’ve read a lot!): the best zombie anthologies (The Living Dead and The Living Dead 2), the best vampire anthology (By Blood We Live...
