Exclusive: BUBBA THE REDNECK WEREWOLF Is Getting A Hair-Raising Sequel

Bubba the Redneck Wolf, based on Mitch Hyman’s comic book series by the same name, has been killing it on Hulu.

Todd McFarlane Is Summoning ‘Spawn’ Once Again

Todd McFarlane, the genius writer, toy designer, and comic book creator, is bringing back one of his coolest characters, Spawn, for another movie. In the 1997 movie starring John Leguizamo and Martin Sheen played villains who were out to cause havoc and raise a little Hell . Al Simmons (Michael Jai White) was a cop before he was murdered. After making a deal with the devil, so that he could come back to earth and watch over his wife, he returns as the anti-hero Spawn. Martin Sheen’s character wants to unleash a new plague on the people of the world and it’s up to Spawn to stop him. Several animated versions have been made since the 1997 live action film.
