Sunday’s SAG Awards ceremony will be a streaming event for the first time on the Netflix YouTube channel. One of the highlights each year is the special In Memoriam segment. It’s been a particularly rough year with over 100 deaths of prominent actors and actresses who were likely members of SAG/AFTRA. Show producers typically are able to include approximately 40-50 people in a tribute.
Among that group will certainly be Oscar winners Louise Fletcher, William Hurt and Irene Cara, plus nominees Angela Lansbury (a SAG life achievement recipient) and Melinda Dillon. Emmy champs Mary Alice, Kirstie Alley, Leslie Jordan, Ray Liotta, Stuart Margolin, Robert Morse and Barbara Walters.

Jane Fonda has been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The 84-year-old actress took to Instagram on Friday to reveal the news, while adding that she’s also already started chemo treatments.
“This is a very treatable cancer,” she said in a lengthy post on Instagram. “80 per cent of people survive, so I feel very lucky. I’m also lucky because I have health insurance and access to the best doctors and treatments. I realize, and it’s painful, that I am [privileged] in this. Almost every family in America has had to deal with cancer at one time or another and far too many don’t have access to the quality health care I am receiving and this is not right.”
Fonda, who made headlines in 2020 with her climate change protests in Washington D.C., and subsequent arrests, also revealed that she’s doing chemo for six months. She said she’s...

Cynicism isn’t hard to come by in the horror genre; any Italian cannibal or home invasion flick will satiate your desire for an outlook on man’s worst transgressions. Conversely, it’s even harder to find a film with such a buoyant feel that is at odds with the terror on display. Well, folks, may I present to you The Boogens (1981), an endearing charmer of a subterranean monster movie. By the time it’s over, you may want to give it a big old hug.
Released by Jensen Farley Pictures in September (with Paramount buying up the TV rights) on a budget of $600,000 Us, The Boogens did nothing to impress critics. However, a certain Stephen King loved the hell out of it, and his praise would grace the advertising as it did with his accolades of The Evil Dead (1981). (A King blurb held a lot of truck in those days.

Sex scenes are an inevitability in most horror films. Some of them are tactful, add something to the film, and tell the audience something about the characters involved. Some are racy, appear tacked on, and the audience wouldn’t know the difference if the scene were removed altogether. Regardless of how the scene plays out, it is statistically proven that audiences love sex... actually, I just made that up, but if there were a survey conducted, I fully expect that the results would be overwhelmingly in support of onscreen sex. It goes beyond just seeing bare body parts, though. There's something about onscreen sex in a horror film that conjures memories of the horror and grindhouse films of yesteryear. But most importantly, we just love sex, and we love violence, and when the two are combined we can barely contain ourselves. The more gratuitous, the better. So, for your carnal enjoyment,...

For horror fans, 1981 was a banner year. First, we were inundated with over a dozen slasher flicks, including genre classics such as Halloween II, The Burning, The Prowler, My Bloody Valentine and Friday the 13th Part 2. The year also included future classics like The Howling, The Evil Dead, An American Werewolf in London and The Beyond, so it's no surprise a little monster movie called The Boogens became lost in all the cinematic mayhem. But the film developed a following and is now out on DVD for the first time.
