Based on the popular Wattpad book by Ali Novak, “My Life With the Walter Boys,” the series stars Rodriguez as Jackie Howard, a 15-year old girl who loses her family in a tragic accident.

“The fourth season will explore the formative years, pioneering accomplishments, dueling philosophies and key personal relationships of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X,” per the official description. “While King advanced racial equality through nonviolent protest, Malcolm X argued forcefully for Black empowerment, identity and self-determination. With their formidable wives, Coretta Scott King and Betty Shabazz, by their sides, King and Malcolm X became synonymous with the civil rights era and the fight for racial and economic justice.

"What are they?" "The hollow ones... They're watching." Vertical Entertainment has debuted an official Us trailer for a horror film titled The Hollow Child, the feature directorial debut of Jeremy Lutter. Inspired a bit by a folklore tale about children-snatching trolls who secretly hide in the forest, the film is about a foster family that realizes something is wrong with one of them. A troubled foster teen, Samantha, works to expose a dangerous supernatural impostor in her new family and rescue her foster sister. The cast includes Jessica McLeod, Hannah Cheramy, John Emmet Tracy, Jana Mitsoula, Genevieve Buechner, Connor Stanhope, and Johannah Newmarch. This does look like a solid, very eerie forest horror. Watch below. Here's the new official trailer (+ poster) for Jeremy Lutter's The Hollow Child, in high def on Apple: Highly intelligent and malicious creatures known as The Hollow Ones live in the Woods and entice children with their hypnotic folklore music.

We already shared the first trailer, poster(s) and clip from the upcoming American Mary movie. And you liked it, right? Ok then, today we have the first TV spot for the female-centric surgical horror-thriller which comes from Jen and Sylvia Soska, and we definitely recommend you to check it out, ’cause, well… appearances are everything, and this Mary is stylish, artful and darkly funny!

So, as we previously reported, the movie is both written and directed by the Soska Sisters, and centers on a medical student named Mary Mason, played by Katharine Isabelle, as she becomes increasingly broke and disenchanted.

The rest of the story goes like this:

…the allure of easy money sends Mary into the twilight world of body modification and underground surgeries where obsessed flesh artists will pay anything and go through any pain to get their unusual procedures done. But Mary soon finds that her...

If you keep an eye on our Spotlight section you might recall that a few months ago we brought you articles about two indie movies for which funds were being raised by crowdsourcing. This week we received a new ‘concept’ trailer for one of those, The Ferret Squad, which we present below.

The Ferret Squad, which is still looking for funding, will be directed by Vancouver filmmaker Alison Parker, who previously shot a short film on a similar theme called Jake and Jasper: A Ferret Tale. That earlier production was about the friendship that develops between Jake Tyler (Connor Stanhope, who played a young Lex Luthor in Smallville) and a furry friend called Jasper after the boy’s mother dies.

Jake and Jasper’s small but accomplished cast also features Andrew Jackson (whose credits include Stargate Sg-1, Andromeda, Warehouse 13...

The Soska sisters, Jen and Sylvia (Dead Hooker in a Trunk), are preparing their second feature. Their newest horror film, American Mary, deals with underground surgeries. And, Mary is not someone you would likely hire for a quick nip and tuck. The first trailer shows a few surgeries gone wrong. Apparently, Mary (Katharine Isabelle) has dropped out of medical school. She now experiments on a steady stream of clientele. Her results are disturbingly lackluster. Late in the clip, Dr. Josef Mengele is mentioned. If you missed the joke, that is because Mengele has been dead for thirty years now. Previously, he was a Nazi doctor who performed pseudo-science on twins and other concentration camp prisoners. Enjoy the dark humour below. Directors: Jen Soska, and Sylvia Soska. Writers: Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska. Cast: Katharine Isabelle, Julia Maxwell, Antonio Cupo, Connor Stanhope, Paul Anthony, Paula Lindberg and John Emmet Tracy. The...

Lois (Erica Durance) and Clark (Tom Welling) drive to cover a story in the boonies and Lois realizes she can't cover the anti-hero rally story, which will go to Cat Grant who'll get the front page. Lois questions Clark about all the strange incidents that she came across, which Clark puts down to being Kryptonian, such as the spaceship she found, which belonged to Kara. Lois is also into the whole Clark being an alien thing, "it's like dating a god." Thought she was into him for him, not his powers! The car gets a flat tyre which Clark can't fix and has to walk to town. Lois befriends a girl, Charlotte (Bella King) and stays behind with her. Charlotte dressed in bonnet and 'old worldly' clothes which were a big giveaway. Okay well if not for the clothes then the horse and buggy, but she's happy to ride along with her.

Sneak Peek the Vancouver-lensed "Smallville" episode "Harvest", directed by Christopher Petry, written by Al Septian & Turi Meyer, airing October 29 on The CW:

"...'Clark' (Tom Welling) is concerned about the safety of 'Lois' (Erica Durance) so he diverts her away from covering the 'Vigilante Registrations Act' by suggesting she cover another story.

"After he comes clean with her, an angry Lois tells him that she can take care of herself, but when a flat tire strands their car in the middle of nowhere, their plans take a turn for the worse and Lois ends up in serious danger.

"Meanwhile, 'Tess' (Cassidy Freeman) searches for a cure for 'Alexander' (Connor Stanhope), who is rapidly aging..."

As the final season of "Smallville" stretches on, fans are being taken on a roller coaster ride filled with DC Comics easter eggs and trips down memory lane. For the forthcoming sixth episode of the show's final season, the ride continues with Clark Kent (Tom Welling) and Lois Lane (Erica Durance) taking center stage.

After last week's "Isis," Lois is once again front and center for "Harvest," the sixth episode of the tenth and final season of "Smallville."

According to a plot synopsis released by The CW, the episode sees Clark trying to rescue Lois from a situation he perceives as dangerous, only to find danger in an entirely different area.

"Clark is concerned about Lois' safety so he diverts her away from covering the Vigilante Registrations Act by suggesting she cover another story," states the episode description. "After he comes clean with her, an angry Lois tells him that...

The Shrine - Still - CrucifixionYou really have to respect a village for sticking with Paganism 1400 years after variations of this religion have basically gone out of fashion. Paganism is a blanket term used to cover many Eastern European before the emergence of Christianity. Paganism is one of the themes within director Jon Knautz's (Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer) Canadian horror film The Shrine, which will have a World Premiere at Montreal's Fantasia July 25th. The film will have one showing at the film festival and The Shrine, unsurprisingly, shows a "pagan-looking shrine," (Fantasia) where the Polish locals hold Pagan rites for mysterious demons. The trailer for the film is fantastic and the clip shows more of the religious rites performed by these ancient worshipers, below.
