The technical categories at the VMAs are often some of the most interesting and hardest to predict. Unlike the main categories, these are not voted on by the general public, but by special juries of music insiders. Let’s take a look at which videos could grab one or two Moon Persons on September 12.

SEEWho’s hosting the 2021 VMAs? Doja Cat gets the coveted gig Best Art Direction

This category seems to favor visually busy music videos with a lot going on. So I would say that, unless Lil Nas X sweeps all his technical nominations for “Montero (Call Me by Your Name),” “911” by Lady Gaga or “Best Friend” by Saweetie and Doja Cat seem to more closely resemble past winners. I will give “Best Friend” the edge just based on how creative that video is, but any of the three mentioned shouldn’t come as a surprise.

Teyana Taylor is probably the only person on the planet who is shocked by her new role. The star of E!'s new reality series We Got Love Teyana & Iman first turned heads choreographing and dancing in Kanye West's iconic hit "Fade" music video, but the multi-hyphenate talent has been working behind the scenes for over a decade in the music industry. Teyana and NBA player husband Iman Shumpert are parents to two daughters, and We Got Love is expected to "give an unfiltered behind-the-scenes look at their lives juggling music, fashion, business and family" according to a press release.  As for her new title as Maxim's Sexiest Woman Alive for the annual Hot 100...

We're going to change it up for a moment and talk graphic novels. One graphic novel in particular, only because it's from a friend of ours in Chile, filmmaker Patricio Valladares, so it's easy enough to extend him the favor and give him a shout out.    This 26th march, the debut back to comic book world from chilean filmmaker Patricio Valladares with Monsters And Killers (Asesinos y Monstruos) will be available on digital for all latin america via amazon kindle, and soon on comixology.com for North America.   Monsters and Killers is a brand new and terrifying graphic novel from Chilean filmmaker .

If you were confused by the end of Kanye West's leaked music video for "Feel Me," featuring Tyga, look no further.  Director Eli Russell Linnetz, who directed the video as well as Kanye's "Famous" and "Fade" videos, exclusively told E! News that the shot of Kylie Jenner seemingly walking out of Kim Kardashian's nether-region is symbolic of her rise to fame. "It features Kylie coming out of Kim's vagina," he explained. "The metaphorical meaning being that there would be no Kylie without Kim." As Keeping Up With the Kardashian fans know, the family became shot to superstardom following the premiere of...

Director layerd old home movies into final cut after pandemic halted production.

Uncork’d has picked up US, Canadian and Mexican rights to Embryo, the sci-fi horror thriller from Chilean genre specialist and Hidden In The Woods director Patricio Valladares.

Valladares and regular collaborator Barry Keating co-wrote the screenplay about Kevin and Evelyn, a couple camping in the woods whose trip takes a turn for the worse when the woman is abducted and impregnated by aliens.

Ty Dolla $ign borrows from classic house music on his new single “Ego Death,” which was created with help from Kanye West, Fka Twigs, Skrillex, and serpentwithfeet.

“Ego Death” references Ralphi Rosario’s club single “You Used to Hold Me,” which included a brassy vocal turn from singer Xaviera Gold, and nods to Ultra Naté’s “Free,” a Nineties juggernaut that still lights up dance floors today. Ty Dolla $ign sings blunt, bruised lines — “It hurt my ego when you walked away/Gave me your all, that wouldn’t make me stay” — over a terse,...

Mention Teyana Taylor’s name, and it evokes kinetic experiences: aerobicized thrusts in Kanye West’s “Fade” clip, melting alongside Kehlani in a “Morning” homage to the 1998 camp-classic Wild Things, casually flexing in Jay-Z’s video for “Blue Magic.” As a dancer and model – she launched her career in her teens by choreographing Beyoncé’s “Ring the Alarm” video – Taylor leaves a visual imprint as distinct as anything by Rihanna, Ciara and other doyennes of black pop.

But as a musician, Teyana’s path has been less assured. An early...

Wheezy outta here

I'm a late bloomer, third year on the scene

Twenty racks don't feel like?nothing to me

Came from?the streets, it turned me to?a beast

Invisible set, diamonds huggin' my piece

Book me for a show, I need eighty at least

I want the smoke, ain't no keeping the peace

Keep me a razor when I'm in the East

Open 'em up just like a surgery

Everything burning around me, I'm lit

Show a lil' attitude, swap out the bitch

I spent two-fifty, don't know where it went

My hood on my back, I gotta represent

Toronto, you useless, you don't got a pole

Warm that boy up, he got shot in the cold

Thirty rounds in the clip, let it unload

I f**k the b***h I picked right out of Vogue

Took twenty b***hes on my first vacay

I ain't pickin' up,...

Sure to cure "the case of the Mondays" is Nightworld, starring Robert Englund and Jason London, which is now on Netflix and headlines today's Horror Highlights. Also: Texas Frightmare Weekend details, Melancholy Star's Starlight Filmmaker Programme, and Monsters in the Closet Kickstarter details.

Nightworld's Netflix Release Details: Press Release: "Nightworld, starring Jason London and horror icon Robert Englund, will be officially available on Netflix North America from February 16, 2017!

The psychological thriller is directed by Patricio Valladares and produced by Bulgarian based film company Open Frames, a subsidiary of Global Group.

In October last year, Nightworld became the first-ever Bulgarian film to enjoy a limited theatrical release in the U.S. The film opened in 11 major American cities and is now available on 20 VOD platforms, like iTunes and Amazon Prime.

Nigthworld is also the very first 100% Bulgarian production to be picked up by Netflix U.S.

The best and most effective horror stories can often times drive people’s most petrifying nightmares. Acclaimed genre icon, actor Robert Englund, knows a thing or two about terrifying and possessing innocent and unsuspecting people’s minds. After portraying the infamous serial killer, Freddy Krueger, eight times in the ‘Nightmare on Elm Street’ film series, the performer […]

There are only couple of days left to the official Us release of Nightworld on October 20, starring Robert Englund and Jason London. Having this in mind, we are running an exciting giveaway for free cinema tickets for readers and fans, who would like to attend one of the 11 locations that will host the …

Cinema history is filled with tantalizing ‘what ifs,’ ranging from the weird to the fascinating. What if Kubrick had been able to make his epic Napoleon? What if Bill Murray had been cast as Batman in the 1989 film? What would David Lynch’s Return of the Jedi have looked like? Now, we can chalk another one up on the board, because in an interview with Cinema Blend, Freddy Krueger himself, Robert Englund, revealed that he lobbied to make A Nightmare on Elm Street 3.

Elm Street scholars will of course know that the third film in the franchise is Dream Warriors. Set in a mental hospital, we find ‘final girl’ Nancy Thompson training her patients to control their dreams in order to combat Freddy. Needless to say, it doesn’t end well for most of them (I seem to remember Freddy injecting one person with a buttload of heroin).

Englund says...

It started as a seemingly simple security job, but Brett (Jason London) soon discovers that he's protecting more than just a building, he's protecting the world from something sinister that wants to get out in the new horror film Nightworld. Ahead of the film's release later this month from Gravitas Ventures, we've been provided with an exclusive clip from the movie for Daily Dead readers to enjoy right now.

You can watch Brett come across some eerie tracks in the darkness in our exclusive clip below, and keep an eye out for Nightworld (co-starring the legendary Robert Englund) in select theaters and VOD platforms beginning October 20th from Gravitas Ventures.

Synopsis: "When former cop, Brett Irlam (Jason London, Dazed and Confused), takes a job as head of security at an old apartment building in Bulgaria’s capital city, Sofia, he immediately begins to experience a series of bizarre and terrifying events.

You can go ahead and add Freddy Krueger’s name to the ever-growing list of horror icons poised for a return.

With Michael Myers and John Kramer (Aka the Jigsaw Killer) bound for the silver screen once more – Halloween in 2018; Jigsaw late next month – Warner Bros. and New Line are plotting a new incarnation of A Nightmare On Elm Street, with David Leslie Johnson (The Conjuring 2) on script duties.

Aside from some surprising story trinkets that emerged last month, both studios have maintained a radio silence when it comes to the mooted reboot, though if the Powers That Be were to place Robert Englund in control of casting, the series stalwart would name Kevin Bacon as a potential candidate to play the mutilated Freddy.

Word comes by way of Cinema Blend, after the outlet caught up with Englund to discuss his involvement in Nightworld, a psychological thriller currently incubating in post.

People who strive to escape their past may ultimately end up drudging up even more bizarre events. In the upcoming horror film, ‘Nightworld,’ Jason London is diligently striving to move on with his life after making previous mistakes, only to find himself immersed in an even more terrifying situation. In honor of the actor’s character […]

Chilean director Patricio Valladares has been busy. He has a handful of movies currently in production and two others scheduled for release this year one of which is Nightworld which feels very much like something that spawned from the mind of Stephen King or Clive Barker.

Nightworld stars Jason London as a retired Lapd officer who takes on a job as a security monitor in an old apartment building in Bulgaria's capital. Shortly after taking on the job, he starts to experience unexplained events and as he begins a deep dive into the history of the building, it quickly becomes apparent that something sinister is afloat.

"What do you keep back there, King Kong?" Gravitas Ventures has unveiled a trailer for an indie horror thriller film titled Nightworld, from Chilean director Patricio Valladares. The story follows a former Lapd officer who gets a night security job at an old apartment building in Bulgaria's capital, Sofia. But he soon discovers the building has a "malevolent force nestled deep in the bowels" that wants to break free and enter our world. Jason London stars (and he looks a lot like Greg Kinnear), along with horror icon Robert Englund, plus Gianni Capaldi, Lorina Kamburova, Diana Lyubenova, and Atanas Srebrev. This really doesn't look that great, but maybe that's just me. The big door is the coolest part about it. See below.

As the camera swoops over a chilly boreal wilderness, and Luc Suarez’s brooding music evokes an air of intrigue and menace, it seems like we’re onto a winner. And look, there’s Robert Englund in the credits! That’s a sign of quality, right?

Jason London plays Brett Anderson – an ex-cop rather than an ex-Suede frontman – who is having nightmares about his dead wife, Ana (Diana Lyubenova). So naturally he moves to the Bulgarian capital Sofia and becomes a security camera operative in a creepy basement. A man named Martin (Gianni Capaldi) runs the building on behalf of a shadowy organisation. Brett is kept in the dark about what the organisation actually does – and also about what might be skulking in the giant...

When you think of iconic horror franchise, it.s safe to say that one of the first ones that claw its way into your head is A Nightmare on Elm Street. It.s spawned seven sequels, a TV series, and a crossover with Jason Voorhees that no one needs to talk about. The film was remade back in 2010 to less than favorable reviews, and it notably recast the role of nightmare machine Freddy Krueger. Robert Englund, who played Krueger in almost every version of the character, may not have been in that movie, but it doesn.t mean he can.t share his opinion on it.   According to The A.V. Club, Robert Englund was attending Belfast Comic-Con, promoting his latest movies The Midnight Man and Nightworld. Of course, the conversation inevitably turned toward A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Englund was asked what he thought about the remake. The...
