Westworld Season 4 Episode 2
One of the biggest strengths of the first season of Westworld was its massive ensemble cast. Some of them were known performers taking on new characters, with established actors like Ed Harris as the mysterious Man in Black and Anthony Hopkins adding a little class to the story of a very adult theme park full of robots just waiting to go kill-crazy. However, the performers who weren’t as well-known stood out because they all had very distinctive looks, and few characters in Westworld stood out quite like Angela Sarafyan. With her striking, wide-set hazel eyes, Sarafyan’s Clementine Pennyfeather was undoubtedly a favorite of guests of the park, if only because of her kind heart and assigned profession. The “hooker with a heart of gold” trope brought to life.

I Know What You Did Last Summer is not getting an encore on Prime Video.
Deadline broke the news late Friday that the streaming service has canceled the YA horror series after just one season.
News of the cancellation is somewhat surprising.
The show garnered mixed reviews, but there was a decent amount of buzz, which typically translates to viewership.
However, the streaming service never releases raw viewership statistics, so really any show can be canceled at any time.
The good news for fans is that the central mystery was pretty much closed up at the end of I Know What You Did Last Summer Season 1.
Written and executive produced by Sara Goodman, I Know What You Did Last Summer is based on Lois Duncan’s 1973 novel, which was also the basis of the iconic 1997 film.

Amazon released the first teaser for its “I Know What You Did Last Summer” reboot series Wednesday, revealing a new generation of teens being hunted down by a killer who, well, knows what horrible act they did last summer. And thanks to the updates in technology since the original flick — and the Lois Duncan book it’s based on — came out, the new villain in this series is way more tech-savvy.
Just look at that haunting “I’m Coming 4 U” text, complete with a clown emoji, that’s sent to the kids who think no one knows about the crime they are trying to cover up.
Watch the teaser video above.
Written and executive produced by Sara Goodman, “I Know What You Did Last Summer” is based on Lois Duncan’s 1973 novel, which was also the basis of the iconic 1997 film starring Jennifer Love Hewitt, Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Phillippe.

NOS4A2 Season 2 Episode 3
One thing that NOS4A2 did between seasons is tinker with its special effects. For whatever reason, Charlie Manx as an old man looks a little better than he did the previous season.
All across the board, it seems, the special effects seem to be coming across the screen better, from the blood and guts of previous episodes to things like the scarred-up ghost living in the Manx house on the outskirts of the Manx inscape, just outside the gates of Christmasland.
However, one effect that doesn’t hold up when seen frequently is the razor-sharp teeth of the children keeping Millie company and eating whatever drifters Charlie brings home. When they just show up, it looks fine. A child flashes a creepy, fanged smile while sitting in the back seat of the Wraith? Perfect. Millie Manx tries to emote with a mouth full of digitally enhanced dentures?...

Colette (Wash Westmoreland)
Keira Knightley is back in her beloved genre, the period piece, for Colette, and it looks to be one of her strongest roles. The story of the famous French author finds her trying to balance her newfound success, her exploration of her sexuality, and a marriage to her dominating husband Willy (Dominic West). Coming from Still Alice co-director Wash Westmoreland, whose husband and co-director Richard Glatzer passed away in 2015, Colette is now on VOD following a fall theatrical release and acclaim from Sundance.
Where to Stream: Amazon, iTunes, Google
Inception (Christopher Nolan)
Inception is an arthouse movie with blockbuster aspirations. Or perhaps it’s the other way around.

The tale of Lizzie Borden has been told in rhyme and on screen before. In 1975, Elizabeth Montgomery led TV movie The Legend of Lizzie Borden. The less said of 2013’s “nude film” Lizzie Borden’s Revenge, the better. Finally, in 2014, Christina Ricci played the titular tool wielder in Lizzie Borden Took an Ax, followed by a series. After these average to abysmal affairs, director Craig William Macneill (The Boy) and screenwriter Bryce Kass have fashioned what’s close to a prestige feature, and the first big screen film version of Borden’s bloody tale.
Instead of lazily charting the pre-trodden path from a grimy, exploitative perspective, Kass crafts multifaceted characters, fortified by disturbing family drama and taut plotting. These, when mined under Macneill’s burrowing eye, and with outstanding performances, make Lizzie (the film) a disquieting, absorbing and unforgettable drama/thriller, topped with the obligatory mum and dad hacking.

Lizzie Borden and the gruesome murders of her parents remain in the public imagination, due in part to that memorable childhood rhyme about 40 whacks. Andrew and Abby Borden were found brutally murdered in their home in Fall River, Massachusetts on August 4, 1892, when no one else was there except Lizzie and a servant girl. Yet Lizzie Borden was acquitted of the murders, partly because the jury just could not believe that such a well-brought up young lady from a respectable family could possibly have committed such a horrible crime.
Over the years, there have been lots of theories about what happened that day. Lizzie is a psychological thriller that tells one possible version, one that delves into the family dynamics within the Borden family and the restrictive lives of women in that patriarchal era,...

The morning of August 4, 1892, Lizzie Borden discovered the bodies of her father and stepmother who had been axed to death in their house. She went on to become the prime suspect in the murders, and even though she was eventually acquitted, history turned her into a folk tale used to instill fear in little children who shudder at the idea of her cursed axe. How could it not? After all, Borden became the embodiment of everything a woman was not supposed to be: wealthy, outspoken and unmarried.
In Lizzie, director Craig William Macneill and screenwriter Bryce Kass don’t attempt to further acquit her, but sticking to the idea that Borden indeed murdered her parents, they create a feminist case for her. Not that murder is justifiable of course, but rather than focusing on Lizzie as a figure out of a horror movie or creepy folk tale, she is portrayed...

A lesbian spin on the legendary Lizzie Borden murder case is nothing new — Ed McBain posited the notion in a 1984 novel — but the stylish and haunting “Lizzie” paints a provocative portrait of a woman driven by passions and left with few options in a society that gave her little agency.
In “Lizzie,” we come to know Borden’s inner turmoil, not only by her periodic “spells” but also in the way that the camera captures a bewitching Chloë Sevigny. She’s often off-center in the frame, or reflected in mirrors, or out of focus in the foreground as she imagines what’s happening far behind her.
Screenwriter Bryce Kass (“Outlaw Prophet: Warren Jeffs”) and director Craig William Macneill (2015’s “The Boy”), like everyone else who has tackled this story, are left to their own conjectures and theories as to the how and the why behind the murder of Borden’s father and stepmother,...

Filmmaker Craig William Macneill hasn’t been one to shy away from creating compelling, layered characters led by their darker impulses, and his latest feature, Lizzie, is another startling reminder of how isolation can drive people to do terrible things. Starring Chloë Sevigny in the titular role, and featuring a talented ensemble that includes Kristen Stewart, Fiona Shaw, Jamey Sheridan, and Denis O’Hare, Lizzie doesn’t dawdle on the shocking events that transpired that fateful day when Mr. and Mrs. Borden were brutally murdered with an axe—instead, it turns its focus inward on Lizzie and how the repressive society she was brought up in caused her to live a life of isolation and bottled-up rage.
Daily Dead recently caught up with Macneill for a Q&A in honor of Lizzie’s release this Friday via Saban Films and Roadside Attractions, and he discussed what drew him to the project,...

This Friday, Saban Films and Roadside Attractions are releasing Lizzie, the latest movie from filmmaker Craig William Macneill, into theaters everywhere in the Us. In this haunting character study of a woman who seemingly crumbles under the oppressive thumb of both society and her family, Chloë Sevigny stars as the infamous Lizzie Borden, who was suspected of murdering her parents (played by Jamey Sheridan and Fiona Shaw) in cold blood with an axe.
Before the death of her mother and father, Lizzie finds a kindred spirit in Bridget (Kristen Stewart), a housemaid recently employed by the Bordens who shares a deep connection with the titular character, giving Lizzie her very first taste of freedom, and propelling the troubled woman to cut her family ties, both figuratively and literally.

“Bisbee ’17” (September 5)
On July 12, 1917, nearly 2,000 striking miners — most of them Eastern European and Mexican immigrants — were rounded up by their deputized friends and neighbors, herded onto cattle cars, and abandoned in the middle of nowhere. Known as the Bisbee Deportation, this traumatic event has since benefited from an impressive act of collective forgetting, as many of the locals are descendants of those responsible and would rather ignore (or erase) that chapter of the history books. “Kate Plays Christine” filmmaker Robert Greene wasn’t going to let them do that.

Saban Films has acquired U.S. distribution rights to the “The Super,” starring Val Kilmer and John Flueger (“Chicago P.D.”).
Stephan Rick directed from a script by John J. McLaughlin. The genre film is based on an idea from “Law & Order” creator/producer Dick Wolf, who produced through his company Wolf Entertainment alongside Tom Thayer, Patrick Rizzotti, and Brett Forbes.
“The Super” centers on the mysterious disappearance of several tenants at a luxury New York City apartment building. Flueger portrays the building’s new superintendent and a former NYPD officer, who immediately suspects the strange maintenance man, played by Kilmer. With his daughters’ lives on the line, he must decipher the cryptic riddles in which Kilmer’s character speaks to solve the case of the disappearances before it’s too late.
“‘The Super’ marks a return to form for Val Kilmer, who delivers a truly menacing performance,” Saban Films’ Bill Bromiley said.

I love all things related to the Lizzie Borden murders. It's just such a fascinating story/mystery and I watch just about anything related to it. A new film is launching next month that takes a different approach to the story, and it's first trailer is pretty damn great:
I'm loving the sense of tension present throughout this trailer, almost feeling more like a horror movie than a period drama and it's pretty effective. Color me intrigued!

It's both surprising, and not considering the spectacle it became, that over 100 years since Lizzie Borden was tried and acquitted of killing her parents, her story is one we keep going back to.
Books, movies, series (most recently the rather good "The Lizzie Borden Chronicles" starring Christina Ricci as Lizzie) and now we're getting yet another take on her story; this one at the hands of Craig William Macneill who made his feature debut a few years back with the horror movie The Boy (trailer).

I'm sure you're all familiar with the haunting nursery rhyme, "Lizzie Borden took an axe, And gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, She gave her father forty-one."
The story of Lizzie Borden has been reimagined with some new twists to the story in an upcoming film called Lizzie, which stars Chloë Sevigny in the role of the suspected murderer who was accused of hacking up her mother and father, and Kristen Stewart in the role of the family maid, Bridget Sullivan.
I had a chance to see the film at Sundance earlier this year and I thought that it was an interesting take on the story, although it did seem like it was very long and drawn out. In Corrin's review for the film, she said:
Lizzie is an artsy period piece full of frustratingly long pauses and attempts at making an old legend modern and erotic.

"Takes a legend and blows it up from the inside." Roadside Attractions has debuted the first official trailer for an indie drama titled Lizzie, which first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. The dramatic thriller tells the story of Lizzie Borden, infamous for murdering her parents with an axe in 1892. Chloë Sevigny stars as Lizzie Borden, and the cast includes Kristen Stewart as her lover, Bridget, as well as Kim Dickens, Fiona Shaw, Denis O'Hare, Jeff Perry, Jamey Sheridan, Jay Huguley, and Tara Ochs. This didn't have the best reviews out of Sundance, but it does look like a fascinating film with some stunning performances. Director Craig William Macneill "explores the days leading up to the savage crimes in a dark tale of repression, exploitation and thwarted dreams." If you're curious about this, give it a watch.

Lizzie Borden took and axe and, well, maybe. We don’t actually see the deed in this chilling new trailer for Craig William Macneill’s Sundance Fest hit Lizzie starring Chloe Sevigny and Kristen Stewart, but we do get a Lizzie who can wield a wicked retort.
Asked by an interrogator whether her murdered father had enemies, Sevigny’s Lizzie responds, “This is America, sir. Every man with a pulse has enemies.”
Co-starring Jamey Sheridan as Borden patriarch Andrew Borden, Lizzie, judging by this footage, certainly doesn’t shy from speaking ill of the slaughtered. We see a sinister Andrew Borden abusing family maid Bridget Sullivan (Stewart), smacking around Lizzie and slaughtering what seems to be Lizzie’s pet pigeon.
The trailer also portrays the developing intimate relationship between Lizzie and Bridget. Maybe more than one woman took an axe and handed out those 41 whacks?

After debuting at the Sundance Film Festival in January, Chloe Sevigny’s passion project is finally hacking its way to the big screen.
Set in 1892, “Lizzie” follows the notorious would-be axe murderess Lizzie Borden (Sevigny), who was accused and acquitted of killing her father and stepmother in Fall River, Mass. Kristen Stewart co-stars as Bridget Sullivan, an Irish maid who comes to live with the Borden family and secretly develops an intimate relationship with Lizzie.
The thriller also features Fiona Shaw as Lizzie’s stepmother, Abby Borden; Jamey Sheridan as Lizzie’s father, Andrew Borden; and Kim Dickens as Lizzie’s sister, Emma Borden. Denis O’Hare, Jeff Perry, and Jay Huguley also star.
