As Neil Young once sang, the now shuttered Participant is gone, but not forgotten.
Some of Tinseltown’s leading talents like Regina King, George Clooney, Ava DuVernay, Daniel Dae Kim, Martin Sheen, Regina King, Alfonso Cuaron, Matt Damon, Diego Luna and more have joined up with the National Domestic Workers Alliance to express “gratitude and pride” in the work put out by the Jeff Skoll-created shingle over the last two decades. At the same time, the A-Listers are imploring the ever increasingly conglomerated industry to keep their eyes on the social impact prize.
“As we say goodbye to Participant, we must underscore that values-based storytelling is needed now more than ever; to expand the room for debate, to open our hearts to experiences vastly different from our own, to immerse us in the beauty of humanity’s complexities,” the star-studded letter says. “And in the face of unprecedented change and uncertainty,...

Actor Kevin Spacey had been at the peak of his career when he was accused of s*xual assault and was put on trial. Many reports of assault and misconduct came out as part of the Weinstein Effect, which led him to lose out on most of his acting commitments at the time. The actor was also dropped from his long-running Netflix show House of Cards.
Spacey was reportedly cleared of his charges in 2023 and was ready to get back to work again. The two-time Oscar winner won his first Academy Award for his performance as Verbal Kint in Bryan Singer’s cult classic The Usual Suspects. The character was reportedly written with Spacey in mind as he was not too famous at the time, which would have given the twist away.

Dragon’s Dogma’s creative breakthrough—as a series, since much of what the sequel does was introduced in the 2012 original—is that it conceives of the RPG adventure not as a string of combat encounters or dialogue decisions, but as often arduous traveling through dangerous, unpredictable lands—with all the planning, consequences, and improvisation that entails. This angle is so daring and unusual that Dragon’s Dogma 2, which once again sees you set out as the chosen Arisen on a quest to slay the mighty Dragon (or at least it seems that simple at first), somehow feels unlike anything else that’s been released since the first game.
The loop of the game is in many ways similar to that of other action RPGs. Quests send you out into the wilderness to complete tasks and fight monsters before having you return to town to buy equipment and learn skills. This is a familiar rhythm,...

Rachel Zegler and the cast of A24’s Y2K had a blast describing a favorite scene where a group of fleeing high school students slide, tumble and bump down a hill inside an overflowing porta potty
“So, like, the big sh*t — let’s just nip it in the bud — the big sh*t was hot chocolate mix with glycerin, so it smelled amazing. And it was really confusing to shoot that,” said the star of the Kyle Mooney disaster comedy that premiered at SXSW tonight.
The Porta Potty “was on its side, on shocks. Yeah, it was actually bouncing up and down,” Zegler said. “And you can see lovely [co-star] Jaeden Martell here was covering my ear because I kept talking about how I didn’t want water in my ears. And Evan kept saying ‘get your hand off her ear, we can’t see her face.’ But the...

Synapse Films have announced a Limited Edition Uhd & Blu-ray Slipcover combo for Mike Mendez’s much-cherished The Convent (a personal fave of mine Fyi).
From its opening massacre, set to the strains of (appropriately enough) Lesley Gore, The Convent is an in-your-face fright film with a full-blooded sense of humor. Director Mike Mendez both embraces and skewers the traditions of supernatural/possession cinema, with wicked twists that upend expectations and deliver jolts and laughs in equal measure. Not for the devout or the easily offended, the film gives Barbeau one of her best roles as the motorcycle-riding, shotgun-wielding Christine, with bonus appearances by fellow genre icon Bill Moseley (The Devils Rejects) and rapper/actor Coolio. The Convent rocked audiences at festivals including Sundance and Fantasia, but has long been unavailable on disc. Now you can possess its uncensored U.S. debut remastered in Dolby Vision 4K from the original uncut...

Horror maestro Eli Roth returns with the long-awaited Thanksgiving, ushering in a new holiday-themed slasher villain with a one hell of an appetite for body destruction. After an ill-advised early Black Friday sale results in several grizzly deaths, a masked madman known as The Carver turns a small town into his hunting ground as he seeks revenge on the people responsible. It’s dyed-in-the-wool Slasher with some best-of-the-year kill sequences and made with lifelong horror fans in mind.
Adapted from a fake movie trailer included in Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez’s Grindhouse (2007), Roth’s Thanksgiving is the throwback the Slasher crowd has been dying to see for over a decade now. Expanding on the camp and craze of that previous short, Thanksgiving (2023) reunites Roth and previous Thanksgiving (2007) screenwriter Jeff Rendel with an expanded cast including Patrick Dempsey (Scream 3), Gina Gershon (Bound), Rick Hoffman (Hostel), and Nell Verlaque (Big Shot...

In Edgar Wright’s Hot Fuzz, a character at one point asks, “Is it true that there is a place in a man’s head that if you shoot it, it will blow up?” Trepang2, from Vancouver-based developer Trepang Studios, believes in this idea with a near-religious fervor. The game is ludicrously gory, as the hail of your first-person fire is capable of mashing bodies into a red paste, sometimes even leaving behind intact organs in its wake. Eventually, you inject a serum that lets you dual-wield the shotguns and then modify them so that they set things on fire.
Drawing inspiration from the dreary aesthetics of mid-2000s shooters and 2005’s F.E.A.R. in particular, Trepang2 sits at the blissful intersection of the very silly and the very serious. Its heavily armored black-ops teams move through gray hallways and offices, coexisting with horrific creatures and experiments gone awry. You play as one such experiment,...

The art of drag provides the opportunity to find yourself. That may sound odd considering the objective is typically to make yourself look like somebody else, but that transformation has a magical way of discovering something within yourself you never ever knew was there. Few films understand the power of drag like Sophie Dupuis's "Solo," a radiant and intimate story of queer life and a celebration of the queer community's connection to the art of drag.
Simon owns Montréal nightlife. He's garnered a reputation as one of the premier drag queens of the city, impressing with a tantalizing combination of a tight lipsync, fierce dance moves, and gorgeous fashion-forward outfits, made specially for Simon by his sister. When Simon transforms into Glory Gore, she's unstoppable; in complete command of the stage and audience -- people just can't get enough, cheering her name and soaking in every second of her fiery performances.

With the possible exception of 1992’s Alien 3 for the Game Boy and 2014’s Alien: Isolation, video game adaptations of the Aliens franchise have struggled to capture the tension and horror of the films. It takes both foresight and a particular skill to make the player feel vulnerable in a game while still providing an enjoyable experience, and in that regard, the more action-driven adaptations have especially come up short. Few certainly capture what Ridley Scott’s Alien and James Cameron’s Aliens do—the crippling fear of being helpless against an incomprehensible enemy—and without reducing the threat to cannon-fodder.
Aliens: Dark Descent bucks this trend. Here, players take control of a squad of space marines on the moon of Lethe, where an alien outbreak has spread across a colony under the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. Unlike most real-time strategy games, missions begin with a focus on stealth, where the marines...

Then he held up a pair of glasses and called out again until someone felt their way forward from the masses to regain their sight.

Attorneys for Kevin Spacey are seeking to throw out a $31 million arbitration award arising from his conduct on the set of “House of Cards,” saying his behavior amounted to nothing more than “sexual innuendos” and “innocent horseplay.”
The production company behind the Netflix show, MRC, won a confidential arbitration ruling against Spacey in 2020. The company had argued that Spacey owed them millions in lost profits because his misconduct forced them to remove him from the sixth season of the show, and it had to trim the season from 13 episodes to eight.
The judgment became public on Nov. 22, when MRC filed a petition in civil court to confirm the award. Spacey’s lawyers filed an opposition on Friday, asking the court to set the ruling aside. The attorneys argue that Spacey did not engage in sexual harassment and did not violate MRC’s anti-harassment policy.

Be it face-eating spiders, punctured eyeballs or a deadly snail attack, Fulci staked his claim as Godfather of Gore with dreamy languor and plenty of blood
There is more than one candidate for the title Godfather of Gore, but Italian film-maker Lucio Fulci can lay greater claim to it than most. This is a director who seems pathologically incapable of filming someone falling off a cliff without inserting closeups of their face scraping against the rocks on their way down. This is a director who seemingly can’t film an eye without getting the urge to squish, skewer or enucleate it. Welcome to Fulci World.
It was a film called Zombie Flesh Eaters that brought Fulci to international attention. At least, that was its UK title; its Italian studio called it Zombi 2 to cash in on the success of George A Romero’s Dawn of the Dead, which had...

You may have seen that recently here on Nerdly we’ve been reviewing a few more “underground” horror titles thanks to distributors Tetrovideo, films such as Vore Gore, Nightmare Symphony and Thanatomorphose. Now whilst we haven’t covered many underground/extreme horror on the site in the past – though we have reviewed films like Lung, American Guinea Pig: Bucket of Guts and Gore, Mecanix and Your Flesh Your Curse – that doesn’t mean we don’t watch a Lot of them. So with that in mind here’s a rundown of our Top 5 Extreme Films… in no particular order and with a caveat that, should you choose to watch these for yourself, you have a strong stomach and a penchant for debauchery and gore!

According to Wikipedia. Vorarephilia (often shortened to vore) is a paraphilia characterized by the erotic desire to be consumed by, or sometimes to personally consume, another person or creature, or an erotic attraction to the process of eating in general practice. Vore Gore is an anthology of nine extreme horror shorts revolving around this desire.
Vore Gore opens up with “Mouth” by Mikel Balerdi, which features some cringe inducing footage of diseased mouths, teeth removal and other bloody trauma. It’s shocking if entirely plotless.

(Spoilers ahead for the final season of Netflix’s “House of Cards”)
“House of Cards'” final season is here and now we know how the show wrote out Kevin Spacey’s Frank Underwood.
The short story is: He’s dead, which we’ve known for a while without knowing any other meaningful details. When the season begins, its mentioned that he died in his sleep and we see photos of Robin Wright’s Claire Underwood, now president, looking at her dead husband’s casket. But here’s what happened, as far as we know:
After Claire declined Frank’s phone call in the Oval Office, she mentions to the camera it was the last time they spoke. Two months later, Frank storms into the White House, furious at Claire for not giving him the pardon she promises she would. Scared, Claire locked herself in her room and found Frank...

Days after Netflix fired Kevin Spacey from “House of Cards” and canceled an upcoming Louis C.K. standup special, both disgraced stars can still be found on the streaming service.
Five pre-existing Louis C.K. comedy specials, including this spring’s “Louis C.K. 2017,” continue to live on the site, available for viewing.
Meanwhile, four projects still pop up when searching for Spacey’s name, including “House of Cards” and the documentary “Now: In the Wings on a World Stage,” a behind the scenes look at Spacey starring in the Bridge Project production of “Richard III.”
That’s not to say that the streaming service isn’t taking a hit: Netflix scrapped plans to release the Spacey starrer “Gore,” a Gore Vidal biopic that had already finished shooting. And it may have to start over on Season 6 of “House of Cards,” with Robin Wright now as star, even though that show had already been shooting.

Bringing an end to what has been a shocking and deeply troubling week, we’re learning tonight that Netflix has fired Kevin Spacey from House of Cards. Not only that, but they’ve also axed plans to release Gore, a film they were working on with the actor that was in post-production.
