The thing I've loved the most about Chucky since its series premiere is its ability to raise the stakes and deliver unpredictable twists that shake up the narrative.
Chucky Season 3 Episode 2 lost sight of that, possibly for good, delivering an infuriating hour rather than entertaining.
Miss. Fairchild was wrongly framed for murders on Chucky Season 1, forever tarnishing her reputation.
Despite her apprehension about joining this mission to take down Chucky, she understood the risks of the doll being back on the loose.
Devon, Jake, and Lexy were under her care, so the last thing she wanted was for either of them to get hurt by going to the White House.
It's maddening that she agreed to go to the White House and even more so that she was interested in immersing the kids in life there.
The best-case scenario would have been to alert the authorities. As unlikely as it...

Jeff Burr, director of “Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III,” “From a Whisper to a Scream” and “Straight Into Darkness,” has died. He was 60.
Director-writer Jim Wynorski shared the news of Burr’s death on Facebook, writing that he “passed away last night [Oct. 10] in his sleep.”
Burr helmed New Line’s “Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III,” starring former pro wrestler R.A. Mihailoff as the villain in the 1990 installment. He later directed several entries in the “Pumpkinhead” and “Puppet Master” franchises, including “Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings” (1993), “Puppet Master 4” (1993), “Puppet Master 5” (1995) and “Puppet Master: Blitzkrief Massacre” (2018).
Burr was born in Aurora, Ohio, on July 18, 1963, and grew up in Dalton, Ga. He attended USC, but dropped out after his third year alongside fellow director Kevin Meyer to finish their American civil war short “Divided We Fall.” His feature-length directorial debut was 1987’s “From a Whisper to a Scream,” starring Vincent Price, Clu Gulager and Terry Kiser.

Jeff Burr, the horror specialist who directed Vincent Price in one of his last movies and entries in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Puppet Master, Pumpkinhead and Stepfather franchises, has died. He was 60.
Burr died Tuesday in his sleep in Dalton, Georgia, of apparent complications from a stroke, his longtime friend, actor Eric Spudic, told The Hollywood Reporter.
After several other directors had dropped out, Burr came aboard at the last minute to helm New Line’s Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (1990), this installment starring former pro wrestler R.A. Mihailoff as the villain.
He said it took 11 tries before the MPAA would sign off on an ‘R’ rating for the film, which grossed $5.8 million on a $2 million budget.
Burr went on to direct Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings (1993) and Puppet Master 4 (1993), Puppet Master 5 (1994) and Puppet Master: Blitzkrieg Massacre (2018).
Outside of the horror realm, he helmed Eddie Presley (1992), a film about an Elvis...

We got some sad news today as we have learned that director Jeff Burr, best known for Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, Stepfather II, Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings, and more, has died. He was just 60 years old.
Like many future horror directors, Jeff Burr grew up reading horror magazines like Famous Monsters of Filmland and making his own Super-8 movies. He later attended the University of Southern California but dropped out after his third year to finish his American Civil War drama Divided We Fall with co-director Kevin Meyer. His second feature found him entering the world of horror, and he scored a superstar of the genre to star in it: The one and only Vincent Price.

One of the great unsung traditions of horror is a character’s external environment reflecting their internal state. It has found its way into films as diverse as Repulsion (1965), The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994), and Relic (2020) to name just a few. Edgar Allan Poe was hardly the first to use the device, it had been a feature of the Gothic romances popular in the decades before him, but Poe moved it from character-deepening subtext to overt metaphor in his short story “The Fall of the House of Usher.”
Roger Corman’s 1960 film adaptation of the story latches onto and expands this and several of Poe’s obsessions into what has become a classic of slow-burning terror. The Fall of the House of Usher is the first in what has come to be called the Corman Poe Cycle. These eight films produced between 1960 and 1964 are among the most stylish,...

Like any anticipated Disney release, “The Little Mermaid” has inspired dozens of imaginative product launches and collaborations ahead of the film’s May release. But the best of the bunch might be this haircare set from Carols’ Daughter, made specifically for those with natural curls and textured hair to perfect their own mermaid locs.
The Vanilla Leave-In Conditioner Set, a limited-edition release for Black hair made in collaboration with the Disney film, is a nod to Halle Bailey’s decision to maintain her natural hair in her portrayal as Ariel. Bailey’s long, textured locs seen in the film, which she achieved without a wig, is an important moment for representation and Bailey’s identity, as the movie presents Disney’s first Black Ariel (and first Black princess in a live-action movie.

With Alan Wake 2 finally getting that release date, you’re probably wondering about certain aspects of the game. Namely, the addition of a new character in Saga Anderson in Alan Wake 2 as a playable protagonist. No need to worry, as Gamespot has you covered.
Sitting down with Remedy Entertainment creative director Sam Lake, performance director Hannah Price, and actress Melanie Liburd, the group reveal just who Saga is, where she’s come from, and more importantly, her place in the story.
Obviously, given the journey of Alan Wake 2, the game’s story has changed over the course of the past 13 years. The team began thinking of introducing a co-protagonist “a few versions ago.”
“We wanted to be really, really ambitious with the story,” says Lake. “So having multiple points of view in the story, and having more tonal shifts with that, just felt like the right way to go. And out of that,...

Connor Price has been in the spotlight for a long time.
He (and all four of his siblings) started acting young. When he was 10 years old, he was cast in a little movie called Cinderella Man, where he played the son of Russell Crowe. It was his first major role, but definitely not his last: since then, Price has been in dozens of TV shows and movies. When he spoke to Tubefilter earlier this month, he’d just finished filming guest roles for Chicago Med, CSI: Vegas, and FBI: International.
But while Price loves acting, there’s something else he loves even more.

What a disturbing end to the season!
Law & Order Season 22 Episode 22 featured Sam Waterson's real-life daughter as McCoy's estranged daughter Rebecca, who took it personally when her father put ethical concerns over helping her with a case.
The case itself brought up questions that don't have answers, some of which may keep fans talking all summer long.
This was also Sam Waterson's 400th episode of Law & Order, which is no small feat. Congratulations to the veteran actor on reaching this milestone; the story he was given was certainly worthy of him!
McCoy reminded me of Blue Bloods' Frank Reagan throughout the second half of the hour. Like Frank, he refused to bend the rules for family members who shared his profession, leaving Rebecca feeling slighted.

The gun control debate took center stage in Law & Order’s Season 22 finale, which aired on Thursday night.
Tensions were high after a U.S. senator was shot and killed at his daughter’s wedding. After reviewing footage from the incident, Shaw and Cosgrove realized their suspect was a waiter whose face was obscured by a KN95 mask. (He might have been a murderer, but at least he was being Covid-conscious.)

It’s a family affair on Law & Order in the Season 22 finale — don’t worry, it’s already been renewed — and TV Insider has an exclusive sneak peek! In the episode “Open Wounds,” a senator is gunned down at his daughter’s wedding. Jack McCoy (Sam Waterston) pushes for a severe sentence and squares up against a formidable Da — his own daughter, Rebecca (played by Sam’s daughter Elisabeth Waterston). Price (Hugh Dancy) aims to stay neutral but can’t help but empathize with the defendant over a shared trauma. In our clip, Jack finds out Rebecca’s the defense attorney on the case. “I didn’t know you were doing murder cases,” he remarks. “I represent people I think need representing. Sometimes that includes people charged with murder,” she explains. “He’s not the monster you described.” Jack, however, isn’t so sure. “That may be, but the evidence tells a different story,...

Margo Price has reinterpreted her Strays track “Change of Heart,” which originally had sort of a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers gone country vibe, as a sparsely adorned acoustic song. The song now has a dusky, campfire feel, as she and country artist Sierra Ferrell slow it down and plumb new emotional depths in the lyrics. Price’s husband, Jeremy Ivey (who also cowrote the song), plays guitar on the tune while Billy Contreras plays fiddle.
