Yet, not enough attention ever seems paid to the kind of movies that cause filmgoers to grasp their armrests — or another’s arm on said rests — after the lights go out. Where is the love and anticipation for a potential new slate of nightmares that make us swallow our breath with every creaking house groan in the night? Of course, predicting what will be the most worthwhile horror movies in any year can be a bad dream in itself....
Payroll management systems are in demand these days. And more and more businesses want to streamline and automate many areas of their business, especially stressful and repetitive ones. That said, the payroll process is time-consuming and can be expensive.

Megatron… a good guy?! He’s even got a cute nickname, “Megs.” What world are we living in?

Originating from the book series created by del Toro and Daniel Kaus, 2016 series Trollhunters kicked off Tales of Arcadia as part of Netflix’s quest to produce original animation for children. You don’t go into Trollhunters and its two series successors, 3Below and Wizards, expecting form-breaking storytelling for Western children’s cartoons, but each series had plenty to offer: Del Toro’s colorful realms with their own mythology, slapstick one-liners in the midst of swordplay, and colorful creatures from lovable AAARRRGGHH (Fred Tatasciore) to the paternal Blinky (Kelsey Grammar) with his teacher bravado....
Bobby taught me about opera and certain types of pop music whenever I used to stop by and see him as a kid, and he also introduced me to the idea of appreciating art, film, and literature. I didn’t quite realize it at the time, but Bobby certainly taught me the importance of education, culture, and, to some extent, critical thinking. I also didn’t realize at the time that Bobby was, for lack of a better word, different....
The Unreal Engine was originally developed by Epic Games for its 1998 FPS Unreal. The toolset has since been through several iterations that all demonstrate an uncanny ability to power almost every video game genre imaginable and also deliver top-notch graphics. The Unreal Engine is just as at home in shooters such as BioShock and Gears of War as it is in RPGs like Dragon Quest XI and The Last Remnant....
Compare the openings of the original Utopia and the US remake, and you’d be forgiven for thinking that the new version had softened the show’s hard edges. Right out of the gates, the 2013 UK original kicks off with a series of murders. In the aptly named Doomsday Comics shop, a pair of assassins cosh one man with a metal pipe, and gas another two men and a child to death....
Vikings Season 6 Episode 18 “Here is the grave of the most famous Viking who ever lived.” There’s an element of truth to the well-known axiom that says it’s always calm before the storm, and as we near the end of the saga, Vikings allows its characters a moment to catch their collective breaths before taking steps that will drastically alter their respective political and personal landscapes. “It’s Only Magic” delivers a series of emotional interiors that lays the groundwork for resolutions in Kattegat and France and provides a fresh beginning in a wondrous new world....
Netflix confirmed as much when the company trumpeted viewing data for the Jenna Ortega series late Tuesday afternoon. According to the streaming service, Wednesday chalked up 341.2 million hours of viewership in its first seven days, as per Netflix’s own internal analytics. This topples the record previously set by Stranger Things 4 back in late May/early June of this year, as well as any other English language series. However, it is still under Netflix’s all-time record holder, last year’s Squid Game, a drama in the Korean language that totaled 571....
Wellington Paranormal does for cops what What We Do In the Shadows does for vampires: not really much. People didn’t offer their throats to Staten Island bloodsuckers, asking to be made immortal after the FX series, and there won’t be a run on the New Zealand police academy any time soon, even after any cadets learn there is a paranormal unit in some of the local precincts. Hardly any law officer has even visited the basement office of the paranormal unit at the Wellington station....
Westworld Season 2 Episode 1 Freeze all motor functions and begin running diagnostics, because Westworld has finally galloped back into the HBO corral—and with it comes many gifts. There are of course the violent delights and violent ends that we must expect from visiting Robert Ford’s dreams within dreams, plus all the mazes that accompany therein. But more pleasing still is the return of true appointment television. It is rare in the modern age for a series to still crack the zeitgeist threshold and feel like an event that everyone must experience live, yet here we are, hanging on every syllable uttered by Bernard, figuring out whether he is friend or foe to his human compatriots, and wondering just exactly how Dolores’ bloody revenge will escape the park....
If you are among those who’re wondering what the noise is all about, this article will bring you much-needed relief. So, grab some coffee ☕, lean back, and enjoy! Rapid changes and overnight tectonic shifts do not bother frontend developers. They’ve understood that resistance is futile, and have buckled up to learn a new CSS framework every year, a new JavaScript framework every week (because that’s how fast they seem to be mushrooming), and complete rewrites of personal and work-related web apps every two years....
The hype surrounding cryptocurrencies and Web3, in general, has been monumental over the last few months. And while most people are already familiar with NFTs, there is another term that has been rising in popularity. And that term is Decentralized Autonomous Organization or DAO for short. What exactly is a DAO? In layman’s terms, a DAO is a smart contract that is agreed upon by people who share similar interests....
Artificial intelligence has changed the way machine performs work. Today, your computer can do many personal and professional tasks if you train it with AI tools. Some examples are creating images, producing voice from text, controlling utilities, etc. But these are not truly intelligent. There are lots of months of training behind such automation. How about a truly intelligent computer application that can learn on its own? That is artificial general intelligence’s domain....

For psychic vampire Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch), it’s another Wednesday, which some fellas in his office like to think of as Hump Day. What We Do in the Shadows is a series adaptation of the feature film created by Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, and for the uninitiated, it is a mock-doc styled vampire reality show. The vampires’ familiar, Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), keeps things real for the human audience. Colin brings the vampires to ground....
Historically speaking, the fantasy genre has a thorny relationship with motherhood. Technically, it’s acknowledged that the protagonists must have sprung from somewhere. But it is often solely their paternity that is seen as important—while the mothers, if mentioned at all, are usually either dead of irrelevant: unmentioned or languishing in a convent somewhere. If the mothers (or stepmothers: a different type of a mother-figure) persist in being alive into their children’s adulthood they are most often presented as an obstacle to their child’s self-actualisation/quest, or, as is most common with the stepmother archetype, present an actual threat to the protagonist....
