No, That Wasn’t an X-Men Reference in ‘Him’

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-09-20 21:00:21

Of all the sports, football clearly lends itself best to horror. It’s a violent battle and requires players to do things to their bodies that no person would normally do. That’s why those players get paid so much, which then opens up a whole other can of worms. Those points may seem like obvious ways to evoke the horror genre, but it’s not something that happens very often. A horror sports movie? It’s unique. Him, the new film from director Justin Tipping and producer Jordan Peele, embraces all

After stretching across movie screens this summer, Fantastic Four: First Steps is coming home next week. To celebrate, io9 has your first look at one of the behind-the-scenes featurettes being included—and it’s all about the unsung hero of the movie, the little robot that could, Herbie. The fifth member of a team that famously has the word “four” in its name, Herbie was the breakout star of First Steps.

'Superman' Has Landed on Streaming. Here's How to Watch

Superman is now streaming. James Gunn's comic book blockbuster, which is also the first big-screen release since DC Studios rebranded, gives the titular Kryptonian a new coat of paint. And honestly, I can't wait to watch it again. Gunn wrote and directed the movie -- which is an achievement in and of itself when you consider that he was also writing every episode of Peacemaker season 2 -- and took inspiration mostly from Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's celebrated All-Star Superman comic.

We’ve Seen ‘Primate,’ the First Big Horror Movie of 2026

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-09-21 13:00:29

We’ve seen into the future. Each January, Hollywood provides a few horror movies to kick off the new year and, in 2026, one of those movies is Primate. It’s a down-and-dirty, sub-90-minute horror movie about a killer chimpanzee starring Oscar winner Troy Kotsur, which just had its world premiere at Fantastic Fest 2025. And, we think, slotting it in early January is perfect because the film meets, but doesn’t quite exceed, expectations. Directed by Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down, Resident Evil

Tina Romero’s Zombie Movie, ‘Queens of the Dead,’ Has a Queer, Gory, and Gleeful First Trailer

You can’t have the last name “Romero” and release a zombie movie that flies under the radar—which is why it’s so delightful that Tina Romero, daughter of late zombie movie legend George A. Romero, is making her feature directorial debut with the glittery, flashy, gory, proudly queer, and over-the-top-looking Queens of the Dead. The first trailer is here, and it does not disappoint.

I Love Hallmark Movies, but This New Netflix Flick Shakes Up the Rom-Com Formula

You could argue that the newly released Miranda Cosgrove romance movie, The Wrong Paris, which arrived on Netflix last week, could have been a Hallmark movie. As someone who covers a lot of streaming and television content, I've watched at least 100 Hallmark movies over the course of my career, and the plot of The Wrong Paris, at least on paper, is the perfect Hallmark film.

Bridges, of course, starred in the first Tron over 40 years ago, as well as its sequel, Tron: Legacy, 15 years ago. His character, Kevin Flynn, is the key to everything that has happened in this story, and while Tron: Ares doesn’t seem to be about him, the fact he’s in it at all is a major selling point.
