All The Scary Details You May Want To Know About Vampire Zombies From Space with Michael Stasko

In part two, fans might want to be careful in what gets revealed concerning all those Easter eggs that can be found in Vampire Zombies From Space.

Mike Stasko - WRITER_DIRECTOR_PRODUCER When Mike Stasko makes up one third of the core team who helped fine tune what Vampire Zombies From Space is, I’m really hoping for more! His latest film is almost similar to Casey Walker’s A Little Bit Zombie, a movie made more than a decade ago. Both deal with how victims eventually become a member of the walking dead, and to find a cure is rarely explored. I will post an old interview I did with him and include updates regarding his next horror movie, which is currently in post-production. And please visit this link to read part one with writer Jakob Skrzypa.

While the circumstances are completely different between these two particular films, I’m a sucker for zombie comedies. It’s a subgenre that gets a movie made at least once every two years, but not a lot of them stand out because they lack originality. The last time I laughed out loud was with Anna and the Apocalypse! The fact that it’s also a musical says it all.

There are honestly not enough movies being made that marry random genres together. I have to say it was by sheer luck that this movie and Night of the Zoopocalypse released nearly back to back. The dose of nostalgia and euphoria I had was on cloud nine. Afterwards, I had to fall back to the animated medium to rewatch Monsters vs Aliens to round out what I feel are in my top five favourites of this subgenre.

When Vampire Zombies From Space is Too Delicious Not To Miss. An Interview with Jakob Skrzypa.

As Vampire Zombies from Space continues to tour film festivals this year, the producers hope word of mouth will encourage others to see this fun campy film. After Horror Hound and the Great Canadian Film Fest, it’s sure to gain cult status in no time!

In what’s fang-tastic about Canadian styled science fiction cinema is that fans don’t know what to expect. With Vampire Zombies from Space, Jakob Skrzypa dreamed up more than just another satire about an alien invasion from terrors birthed from Western European and Haitian folklore. Although ancient alien conspiracists may say otherwise, it’s safe to say in our world, they have earthly origins!

This comedian, actor and producer has a wicked sense of humour to which those familiar with the works from the Toronto sketch comedy duo Fun Uncle (YouTube Channel) will recognize. And for those who haven’t seen his works before, there’s a good chance they’ll want to investigate his back catalogue of works!

Here’s Everything Viewers Need To Know Before Jurassic World Chaos Theory Season Three Arrives

This recap covers everything viewers need to know before watching the next season of Jurassic World Chaos Theory tomorrow.

Coming to Netflix April 3, 2025

Just what fans of Jurassic World Chaos Theory need to recall is that the gang has one less member. Brooklynn is working with Santos, the enemy, and to keep her friends safe, she must cut ties with her past.

Although this series beginning sets up the belief where she was dead, this young former Vtuber has been alive all this time. She’s been undercover to find out who has been trafficking dinosaurs. After achieving some success, she must go further down the rabbit hole! It’s about time; the movies never went deep into what Biosyn Genetics wants to do with genetically modified dinosaurs.

All Things Avatar The Last Airbender Related That’s Coming in 2025/2026

Here, we reveal everything you want to know about what’s happening this year for Avatar the Last Airbender. This article covers everything revealed at Fan Expo Vancouver, along with announcements from Dark Horse Comics and the studio.

Softcover edition available to order on Amazon USA

While fans of Avatar are eagerly waiting for the animated movie to release in 2026, the adventures that have taken place as published by Dark Horse Comics are getting a proper Avatar: The Last Airbender Omnibus collection! I’ve been collecting these comics as they came out, and they feel like a perfect continuation. This ought to be enough to sate eager fans following the news of the television series, Avatar: Seven Havens, which is a continuation of the franchise. The summary is as follows (from Variety):

Per the official logline, the series is set in “a world shattered by a devastating cataclysm. A young Earthbender discovers she’s the new Avatar after Korra—but in this dangerous era, that title marks her as humanity’s destroyer, not its savior. Hunted by both human and spirit enemies, she and her long-lost twin must uncover their mysterious origins and save the Seven Havens before civilization’s last strongholds collapse.”

As for the movie, the date for release is January 2026. At Fan Expo Vancouver, I said hi to Zach Tyler Eisen again. I saw him last year at Emerald City and asked if the creators considered him to come back for some kind of return role. Even then, non-disclosure agreements would prevent him from revealing anything. Also, Gordon Cormier, from the live-action version, was at the Terminal City show and this time he had a booth! Their panel was about answering questions from fans rather than offering updates regarding what’s being planned. One takeaway is that Cormier is excited about Toph’s debut! He did not mention when season two would air. Also, the fact both sides are supportive of one another says it all.

After 45 Glorious Years, Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX -Beginning- Delves Into What Ifs….

This cinematic presentation of Mobile Suit Gundam: GQuuuuuuX -Beginning- brings the first four television episodes together and shows an alternate future for this franchise.

GKIDS
Spoiler Alert
Now playing at select cinemas near you.

Mobile Suit Gundam is back with GQuuuuuuX -Beginning-! Not only does it reimagine the events from the original television series but also explores a huge what if scenario. Here, Char Aznable (Yuuki Shin) is the antihero who claims the RX-78-2. He’s the ultimate Mr. Bad Guy, and after he steals that said mech and christens it as the “Red Gundam” to win the One Year War, both he and his mech disappear! As for when that happens, before or after Char’s Counterattack, I’m not sure. The first act moves very fast, and I’d have to rewatch.

Consequently, I have to ask will he return? Instead of getting to the answer, the movie presentation jumps ahead by a few years, and introduces Amate Yuzuriha (Tomoyo Kurosawa). This teen finds life in a colony space habitat frustrating. Life in high school isn’t all that good either, and this leads to the usual tropes involved in many an anime.

Captain America Brave New World: More Thoughts Than A Review About Why This Film Matters

This movie only serves to get audiences used to a new person as a hero in Captain America Brave New World. But another question exists regarding whether he can truly lead a new guard?

Captain America Brave New World Spoiler Alert

A Marvel Cinematic World without Captain America feels weird. And even though I know what’s planned, my question is can Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) fit in Steve Roger’s shoes? He can, because one earns the title rather than it belonging to a specific person. And if he is to represent a new generation in Captain America Brave New World, hopefully the people of Earth 616 will embrace it.

When this new hero is important to President Thaddeus Ross’s (Harrison Ford) master plan, hopefully getting that approval is enough. This standalone film doesn’t feel like one. And when they saved the only hint of the grander plan for last, I could have hit the fast-forward button. Not everyone knows it is part of “The Multiverse Saga.” The idea started with Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) and continued in Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness (2022) and later on, Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania (2023), hopefully those people invested in seeing this seventeen old franchise go on won’t be waiting too long for this new grand arc to hit its finale.
