Greg Nicotero Joins Shudder’s ‘Creepshow’ Series

Nearly three decades after the theatrical release of George Romero’s horror anthology Creepshow is getting a series adaptation from “Walking Dead” director Greg Nicotero. Nicotero will direct and executive produce several of the episodes of the Shudder series as well as oversee it. Romero’s original, released in 1982, featured segments by master of horror Stephen King and starred names like Ted Danson and Adrienne Barbeau. The film was so well loved that it spawned two sequels and a comic. Nicotero has a deep connection to Creepshow. He worked alongside Romero on Creepshow 2 and Day of the Dead. Creepshow is a project very close to my heart! It is one of those titles that embrace the true spirit of horror…thrills and chills celebrated in one of its truest art forms, the comic book came to life! I’m honored to continue the tradition in the spirit in which it was created.” Nicotero stated. Set to premiere on Shudder next year, each

“Walking Dead” Casts “Sons of Anarchy” Star Ryan Hurst

As the season premiere of “The Walking Dead” draws closer we’ve learned that “The Whisperers” are coming. Among them, a new cast member. It has now been announced that “Sons of Anarchy” star Ryan Hurst has joined the cast as “The Whisperers'” biggest, baddest villain, Beta. Beta is the second in command to Alpha who leads the group that puts on walker hides like a onesie. Beta is a major adversary to the survivors in the comics, so we assume it will be the same on the show. Hurst will be the third new cast member for the series who all belong to the group. Cassady McClincy was recently cast as Alpha’s daughter Lydia. Hurst was a major player as Opie on the biker series “Sons of Anarchy“. Hurst starred as the lifelong best friend to the club’s leader Jax’s (Charlie Hunnam). Opie volunteered to give his life for Jax and the club in a prison beatdown in what was

Major Actor Leaving “The Walking Dead” And Another Steps Into The Spotlight

WARNING SPOILERS “Walking Dead” fans are in for a rough season. As the beloved show approaches its ninth season, there are multiple reports confirming at least one major character is leaving the series. While there are multiple contracts that will run out at the end of season nine which is currently filming, it has been confirmed by Collider that at least one main character is leaving. We’re sorry to say that it is actor Andrew Lincoln who plays Rick Grimes. It’s unclear at the moment how his character will exit the show. There is also talk the Lauren Cohan (Maggie) will also leave before the end of season nine, since her contract only brings her back for six episodes of the season. Cohan has two movies in the final stages of production, Mile 22 and Whiskey Cavalier. Keep an eye out for those. Now that we’ve given you the bad news, we can give you some good. I doubt Norman

Is The “Fully Nude” Walker A Bad Sign For ‘The Walking Dead’?

AMC’s zombie series The Walking Dead will be returning February 25th where the remaining fan base can see what happens to Carl and hopefully the conclusion of the war between Rick and Negan, the longest confrontation of the show. This confrontation may also be possibly the reason why last season’s rating was low. After the heartbreaking mid-season end that’s leaving many fans confused about the fate of Carl who was bitten by a walker (honestly I think fans will be disappointed since Chandler Riggs has since cut his hair and is attending college.). With many “what ifs” being put out on the internet trying to woo fans back to the series that seems to be running in circles and no longer progressing, it appears yesterday the show’s writers have reached desperation to attract fans. They will have a fully nude walker. Right now many people are leaning closer to the computer screen saying “go on…” while many others are collectively
