If, like me, you grew up reading The Hardy Boys (or Nancy Drew) and The Boxcar Children, and you also have a soft spot for Twin Peaks and other comforting yet disturbing Lynchian dreamscapes, then you should find a lot to enjoy within the quaint and creepy pages of Kris Bertin and Alexander Forbes' Hobtown Mystery Stories Vol. 1: The Case of the Missing Men. Set in a secluded Canadian town where a group of teenage sleuths kill time by trying not to be killed while solving macabre mysteries, Hobtown Mystery Stories Vol. 1: The Case of the Missing Men is now available in color for the first time from Oni Press (following its previous black-and-white publication by Conundrum Press), and Daily Dead had the pleasure of catching up with Kris and Alexander in a new Q&a feature to discuss their unique approach to the teen sleuthing genre, their eclectic cinematic and literary influences,...

As far as individual authors go, Stephen King is certainly in the top of the list of authors whose works have been adapted. He is right there with Agatha Christie, Edgar Allan Poe, Arthur Conan Doyle, and other authors whose works have been adapted often and in many forms. But unlike the aforementioned authors, King’s adaptations are usually original, while the other authors have seen their works adapted and remade more than once. In light of that fact, we can confirm that King’s story, “The Monkey,” had been adapted into a film this spring and the movie was presented to buyers at Cannes this year!
Knowing how popular King’s adaptations are, it was a sure thing that someone would buy the movie, and as it happens, Neon managed to nab the distribution rights for the upcoming movie and they have confirmed that a 2025 release date is currently planned.

To help the boys cope with their grief, Fenton decides to move to Bridgeport for the summer to live with the boys' aunt and grandmother.

A Stephen King horror story about a malevolent (sort of) doll almost sounds like something that could've been written specifically for James Wan to turn into a movie. But while the filmmaker behind "Saw," "Insidious," "The Conjuring," and "Malignant" is indeed involved in adapting "The Monkey" -- a short story King wrote for Gallery magazine in 1980 before later including it in his 1985 collection "Skeleton Crew" -- for the screen, he's only lending his services as a producer.
Instead, "The Monkey" is being written and directed by Osgood "Oz" Perkins, son of "Psycho" actor Anthony Perkins and the mind behind such creepily atmospheric and inventively stylized horror pictures as "The Blackcoat's Daughter," "I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House," and "Gretel & Hansel". Osgood Perkins is also currently riding high thanks to the buzz around "Longlegs," his upcoming occult serial killer horror-thriller that boasts one of the most intriguing trailers in recent memory.

Eighty or so celebrities staked out tables to sign their name and pix for a fee. J.R. was one of those who got hooked on attending these shows a few years back and now never misses one.

Rick Springfield was a massive music star in the ’80s, but even he had to bow to his record label’s demands. In 1975, executives shelved one of his albums for being too “suggestive.” But the “Jessie’s Girl” singer’s previously unreleased classic rock songs will soon go public.

It’s the dying fish that sticks in the mind. You don’t see one in Bonnie and Clyde (1967) or any of the other US movies about murderous young lovers on the lam. Director Terrence Malick’s astounding debut feature Badlands (1973), which started production just over 50 years ago, has a simplicity that is completely out of kilter with its time. While his contemporaries Martin Scorsese and Brian De Palma were making gritty, violent urban movies exposing the racial, sexual, and political tensions in an America coming to terms with the disasters of Watergate and the Vietnam War, Malick was recreating the midwest of the late 1950s in loving fashion.

Neil Gaiman is on a roll these days, with his characters appearing in "Doom Patrol" on HBO Max and the Netflix adaptation of "The Sandman" both garnering audience and critical acclaim. News regarding the upcoming "Doom Patrol" spin-off "Dead Boy Detectives" just keeps on rolling, and it's high time that we finally put on our research caps to wrangle as much information as possible regarding the new series based on the comics of the same name from DC, as well as "The Sandman" universe.
Created by Gaiman and Matt Wagner, the titular Dead Boy Detectives first appeared in live-action during season 3 of "Doom Patrol," but now these supernatural sleuths are ready to take the reigns on their own story. We're still a ways away from actually getting to see "Dead Boy Detectives" on the small screen, but here's everything we know so far.

The third film in David Gordon Green‘s Halloween trilogy, Halloween Ends, is treating itself to 5.4M at the box office during Thursday preview screenings. The final confrontation between Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Michael Myers (James Jude Courtney) opened in 3,200 markets, with showtimes starting at 5 p.m. The Thursday preview screening total for Halloween Ends is 11 more than Halloween Kills, which took home 4.85M in Thursday totals last year.
Analysts expect Halloween Ends to score 55M for its treat bucket during the film’s opening weekend across 3,901 venues. The film reportedly cost 30 million to produce, not accounting for promotional materials and campaigns. The final chapter in Green’s Halloween trilogy also went day-and-date with Peacock on the streamer’s paid subscriber tier.

Actor Austin Stoker, best known for playing Lt. Ethan Bishop in director John Carpenter‘s 1976 classic Assault on Precinct 13, was born on October 7, 1930 in Trinidad… and sadly, it has been confirmed that he passed away on October 7th of this year. His 92nd birthday. Stoker’s wife Robin told The Hollywood Reporter that he died of renal failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. She said, “His transition was beautiful.”
Born Alphonso Marshall, Stoker was in a dance troupe with fellow Trinidadian actor Geoffrey Holder (you may remember him as Baron Samedi in the James Bond movie Live and Let Die), and the pair moved to New York together to pursue careers in the entertainment industry. The Hollywood Reporter says, “In 1954, he played the steel drums on Broadway in Truman Capote and Harold Arlen’s House of Flowers, starring Pearl Bailey, Alvin Ailey and Diahann Carroll, then toured in...

Halloween Ends isn’t really going to be the end of the Halloween franchise. As long as there is still money to be made off of Michael Myers, we’re still going to be getting new Halloween movies. But this movie probably is going to be the last time Jamie Lee Curtis ever plays franchise heroine Laurie Strode – and in a new promo video, Curtis gets choked up while talking about her last day on the Halloween Ends set. The day she said goodbye to a character she has been playing, off and on, for forty-four years. You can watch the promo video right here:
#HalloweenEnds is almost here, and @jamieleecurtis was kind enough to share her experience of the last day on set, and just how much Laurie Strode means to her.

Those precocious kid detectives made childhood seem exciting and all they did was solve benign mysteries like The Case of the Missing Pencil Sharpener. But even though their whodunits were small-scale, they were still pretty damn magical. So what happens when you subtract the childhood magic, skip ahead 20 years, and catch up with a 31-year-old washed-up kid detective? Evidently, you get a great movie out of it.
"The Kid Detective" is the story of Adam Brody's Abe Applebaum, a once-celebrated mystery-solving kid who's gone from making headlines in local papers to wallowing in his own self-pity. Still solving...

Michael Myers isn’t looking as good as he used to. In 2018’s Halloween (watch it Here), the latex of his mask was deteriorating – which makes sense, since it was the same mask he wore during his 1978 killing spree. The ending of that movie left the mask with burn damage for Halloween Kills (watch that one Here). Now four years have passed between the events of Halloween Kills and the upcoming sequel Halloween Ends, and when we catch up with Myers this time we’ll find that his mask is showing more wear and tear… and has even gotten moldy. Trick or Treat Studios will be selling replicas of Halloween Ends‘ moldy Myers mask, and are going to start accepting pre-orders (for the price of 79.99) at that link on September 15th. In the meantime, you can see an image of the Trick or Treat Studios replica mask at the bottom of this article.

For several years, the Halloween and Hellraiser franchises were housed at the same studio. That’s no longer the case, so it’s a cool coincidence that we’re getting new additions to both of those franchises this October. A Hellraiser reboot is scheduled to arrive first, set to be released through the Hulu streaming service on October 7th. The new Halloween sequel, Halloween Ends, will follow a week later, reaching both theatres and the Peacock streaming service on October 14th. In anticipation of these release dates, USA Today has unveiled new images from each film: one giving another look at Pinhead, who is played by Jamie Clayton in the Hellraiser reboot, and the other offering a glimpse at the Michael Myers vs. Laurie Strode showdown we’ll be witnessing in Halloween Ends. Both images can be seen at the bottom of this article.

We’re only a month and a half away from having the chance to see the latest Halloween sequel, Halloween Ends, as the film is set to reach theatres on October 14th and will be available to watch on the Peacock streaming service the same day (for viewers with a paid subscription to Peacock Premium or Premium Plus). Despite how close the release date is, director David Gordon Green has revealed to Empire that he is still working on the film’s ending… and along with the quote from Green, Empire also shared a bloody new image from Halloween Ends, which you can check out at the bottom of this article.
Green told Empire that the ending of Halloween Ends
changes every day. In theory, the picture is locked, but this morning I called the editor and said, ‘What if we do this one thing…’ … It’s exciting, uncertain, satisfying and sad.

Laurie Strode's last stand will play out on Peacock the same day it hits theaters.
Universal Pictures, Miramax, and Blumhouse’s Halloween Ends, the final installment of the most acclaimed, revered horror franchise in film history, will debut as Peacock’s Halloween movie event Friday, October 14, day-and-date of its theatrical release.
The move follows in the footsteps of Halloween Kills, which launched on Peacock and in theaters on the same date in 2021.
Granted, that move was in response to Covid-19, but the flick went on to generate a decent amount of money at the box office.
It was significantly lower than its predecessor, but it likely helped boost Peacock subscribers.
"This is Laurie Strode’s last stand," the logline for Halloween Ends reads.
"After 45 years, the most acclaimed, revered horror franchise in film history reaches its epic, terrifying conclusion as Laurie Strode faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil,...
