It takes a strong stomach to watch a “Terrifier” film. Director Damien Leone’s trilogy (a fourth film is reportedly in the works) traffics in some of the most gruesome FX in the horror genre. And that’s saying something with films like “Men” and “The Substance” in the public space. Franchise killer Art the Clown (David …

It doesn’t take a genius to spot media bias. Loaded phrases are the first clue, like calling anyone appointed by President Donald Trump a “loyalist.” Do other presidents tap contrarians for key roles? The second? What stories get left behind and which ones get all the attention? Reporters routinely ignore select stories, like the wave …

J.K. Rowling isn’t an influencer in the traditional sense. She’s not begging for “likes” on social media or using filters to put her best face forward.

Ellen Barkin is sticking with X, for now. The progressive star, best known for films like “Sea of Love,” “The Big Easy” and Netflix’s “The Out-Laws,” hasn’t decamped for Bluesky like some fellow progressives.

There’s plenty to spoof about horror movies. The dumb decisions. The endless tropes. The heroes who leave the almost-dead killer breathing to slay again. Been there, “Scream’d” that. “Heart Eyes” isn’t content to mock just one genre. It takes aim at rom-coms, too, delivering a dual-edge spoof that will make you jump out or your …
