Official Synopsis: "Loveland, Ohio. Home of the Frogman. In the summer of 1999, a 12-year-old named Dallas Kyle captured footage of the mythical creature, but no one believed it was real.
Twenty years later, Dallas, now an amateur filmmaker struggling to turn his passion into a career, returns to Loveland with friends Amy and Scotty determined to obtain irrefutable proof that the Frogman exists. But what starts as an innocent documentary soon turns into a Lovecraftian nightmare as Dallas uncovers the horrific secrets hidden beneath Loveland's idyllic surface.

Camp Pleasant Lake: "DeskPop Entertainment will release Thomas Walton's refreshingly indie new horror film Camp Pleasant Lake in select cinemas and on VOD February 27th! The picture, which stars 90s screen icon Jonathan Lipnicki alongside a bevvy of genre film icons, is a loving throwback to the thrilling, violent summer camp slasher films of the 1980s.
In Camp Pleasant Lake, Rick and Darlene Rutherford breathe life into the eerie remnants of an old campsite, unaware of its dark past. Strange occurrences haunt the area, mirroring the tragedies of the old camp, where two decades earlier, a young girl was kidnapped and her parents brutally murdered. Amidst chilling atmospheres and long-forgotten secrets, the couple grapples with a horrifying revelation—they are entwined in the camp's history. And as the shadows of the past collide with the present, the Rutherfords must confront the haunting histories of a sinister crime.

"This thing is after me." Gravitas has debuted a trailer for an indie psycholigcal thriller called There is a Monster, set for VOD release later this month. It's the feature debut of a filmmaker named Mike Taylor, who wrote and produced as well. This hasn't played at any film festivals and is getting dumped in January. Here's the pitch: a man is haunted and hunted by a monster that only he can see. If this sounds familiar, it's because this kind of idea has been made plenty of times before, in so many better ways. The monster hovers over him as he sleeps, and it starts to affect him physically. More attacks occur and he blames the monster for his troubles. But his wife and best friend wonder if maybe he's losing his mind. There is a Monster stars Joey Collins, Ena O'Rourke, Jesse Milliner, Marcellus Shepard, Kelly Schwartz, MerryRose Howley,...

Before you decide to put on the new Netflix documentary titled Poisoned: The Dirty Truth About Your Food, you’d want to put your plates to the side if you have a weak stomach. There’s nothing extreme about “Poisoned”; it only puts out hard facts about the food supply chain in the United States while also delivering a message to the government to take action. I’m not sure if it’ll really make a difference there, but it’s got grit and uses case studies to examine the seriousness of the situation. As the documentary begins, you hear loads of people from the industry talking about how America has one of the safest food supply chains in the world, and as the documentary progresses, you realize how untrue that statement really is. The documentary runs about an hour and 20 minutes and is compact with a very straightforward point.

Finally! After almost seven years, Happy Valley is back, and this BAFTA-winning crime drama’s third and final season is set to be as nail-biting as ever. These six fresh episodes from writer Sally Wainwright are definitely worth the wait.
Series Three dives back into the action around five years after the explosive events of the Series Two finale, beginning with Sergeant Catherine Cawood (Sarah Lancashire) discovering the remains of a gangland murder victim in a drained reservoir, a discovery which will lead her all the way back to her nemesis Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton).
Catherine still lives with her grandson Ryan (Rhys Connah) who’s now sixteen and working out what kind of relationship, if any, he wants with Royce, the man who fathered him when he raped Catherine’s daughter Becky. Needless to say, Catherine won’t take this well.
Still battling with the local drug problem,...

SpaceX and Nasa’s historic launch of its crewed Falcon 9 rocket to the International Space Station planned for Wednesday has been postponed because of weather problems. The mission was scrubbed with 16 minutes, 54 seconds left on the countdown at Cape Canaveral, Fl. They will try again with an instantaneous window on Saturday, May 30 at 3:22 Pm Et.
Launch director Mike Taylor announced the scrub after what amounted to a great practice run, with Nasa astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley already on board the Crew Dragon and liquid oxygen and fuel partially loaded for the first private, commercially built manned spaceflight in U.S. history.
Communications between the spacecraft and mission controls at Kennedy Space Center and at SpaceX in Hawthorne, CA suggested that if the window had been 10 minutes wider, the launch would have been possible. Potential lightning was cited as one of the three weather points that prevented the launch,...

M.C. Taylor has been singing about his kids since before they were even born. Before his eldest child, Elijah, arrived in 2009, Taylor — who for the past 10 years or so has made records with a revolving cast of musicians under the moniker Hiss Golden Messenger — wrote a sweet back-porch hymn called “I’ve Got a Name for the Newborn Child.”
But on his new album, Terms of Surrender, the tenor of Taylor’s relationship to his children feels different: more high-stakes, almost desperate at times. In several songs, he carries on...

It’s not particularly good… some people may have now given up reading the rest of this review proving how showing your hand early can be the worst thing to do. In the case of Stu Stone’s sophomore effort Scarecrows, this is something he should have taken heed of.
Within the first five minutes, the biggest plot point has been revealed as we find that a farmer with a grudge against trespassers has replaced straw and cloth scarecrows with a much more authentic version. This leaves Stone relying on the empathy that we should be feeling for his protagonists and this is where things begin to go wrong but just like Stone’s last scene, let me take you back to the beginning.
