Many of the horror franchises that thrived during the days of VHS tapes and long lines at the box office have found it hard to keep up in the age of one million streaming channels.

This new chapter follows the characters we were introduced to last year (including Wednesday’s Jenna Ortega, Yellowjacket’s Jasmin Savoy Brown, and up-and-coming Mexican-American actress Melissa Barrera), as they explore college life in a n ..read more

The bill passed in late February of 2023 by Tennessee Governor Bill Lee aims to ban “adult-oriented performances'' (which, for some reason, includes drag performances) from public spaces such as book stores and restaurants, claiming that it might be “harmful to minors.” Understandably outraged, celebrities like Cyndi Lauper and the new wave band, The B-52’s, have spoken out against these laws.

And I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t mumbling mantras to myself in an attempt to wrestle my nerves into submission after his manager put me on a brief hold. “I am confident. I am worthy!” A co-founding member of the ’60s avantgarde band the Velvet Underground, Cale is an icon—a musical demigod whose debut album with the Velvets is widely considered one of the best rock records of all time. Heck, he even taught David Bowie to play the viola. “‘Taught’ is a curious word,” Cale says, laughing, as he carefully walks me through a memory. “At our Town ..read more
