Last month, we unveiled the trailer for writer/director Craig Rees’ film Goldilocks and the Three Bears: Death and Porridge, which puts a horror thriller twist on a classic children’s story. (You can watch that trailer in the embed above.) While we’re still waiting to hear when the film is going to make its way out into the world, Rees has provided The Daily Star with some interesting information, revealing that Goldilocks is going to feature some “pretty graphic” violence, including head crushing and eyeball damage!
Goldilocks and the Three Bears: Death and Porridge has a short and simple synopsis: Never enter into someone’s house without permission.
But most of us already know the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. A young girl called Goldilocks wanders into a house in the woods, helps herself to some porridge, sits in the chairs, tries out the beds. Then...

Bob Barker was a pillar of television’s greatest generation.
Barker, the enduring host of “The Price Is Right” who died Aug. 26 at the age of 99, was a World War II veteran who trained as a Navy fighter pilot. But his destiny was not to fly missions in the Pacific theater. Barker’s service to his country came in the years after the war, when he and an elite corps of seasoned radio announcers laid a large part of the foundation for commercial television as we know it today.
Barker was a born broadcaster. He had a resonant voice, and his 6-foot-1 frame didn’t hurt in making an impression on viewers in the early days of grainy TV pictures. But his biggest asset was the gift of being to speak extemporaneously on live television – and make it look and feel natural while doing so.

A new creature feature from New Zealand filmmaker Scott Walker (The Frozen Ground), The Tank is coming to select theaters on April 21 followed by a Digital release on April 25.
Set in the 1970s, The Tank is a story about a young family who awakens a horde of creatures. Academy Award-winning special effects supervisor and creative director Richard Taylor and his team at Peter Jackson’s VFX studio Weta Workshop created the creature effects!
Bloody Disgusting has been told that one of the themes throughout the film is the clash between masculine and feminine values. This led to Regina Hegemann’s casting as The Creature.
“Not only has she got the flexibility and the performance, but she has the no fear attitude needed to play this role,” director Scott Walker tells us. “I really wanted every element of the film to feel like it really happened so everything needed to be...

During television's infancy, it didn't take much to keep viewers entertained—especially if those viewers were children themselves. The four-disc DVD set Hiya, Kids!!: A '50s Saturday Morning collects episodes from 22 different '50s TV series, from legendary shows like Time For Beany and Sky King to long-forgotten regional hits like Ding Dong School and The Magic Clown. The episodes are between 15 and 30 minutes long, in kinescoped black and white, and about as thrilling to watch as a test pattern. But even test patterns can hold some fascination when viewed from the right angle. Fans of vintage TV personalities will enjoy seeing scandal-plagued game-show icon Jack Barry hosting the "kids say the darndest things" forum Juvenile Jury, and Price Is Right announcer Johnny Olson hosting Kids And Company. Those who like picking through old TV shows for quaint racism should pay special attention to The Pinky Lee Show.
