Did Desmond And Dana Link Up?

As reported by TMZ, Dana and Desmond have been casually seeing each other and hanging out in recent weeks. The timing allegedly comes after Desmond’s estranged wife, Kristy Scott, filed for divorce back in December. While insiders say the situation isn’t super serious right now, the two have reportedly been getting to know each other and spending time together behind the scenes.

Fans started putting the pieces together after both appeared to share posts from the same outing — the Houston Rodeo. Though neither posted photos together, on Friday, March 13, Desmond shared a clip showing off his cowboy-inspired outfit, while that same night, Dana posted a shot of the “Welcome to the Rodeo” sign, instantly sending social media into detective mode. For now, sources say the connection is still new — but clearly people are already watching closely.

After redefining the Western with his explosive revenge saga Django Unchained, Quentin Tarantino doubled down on the genre with an even darker and more experimental follow-up. Released in 2015, The Hateful Eight remains one of the director’s most unusual and polarizing films.

Nearly a decade later, the snowbound Western is finding new life online — with the film now streaming for free on Fawesome, giving audiences a chance to revisit Tarantino’s icy chamber drama. Set in post-Civil War Wyoming during a brutal winter storm, The Hateful Eight traps a group of strangers inside a remote stagecoach lodge as paranoia, secrets, and grudges begin to unravel.

The film centers on the definition of a stacked cast led by Samuel L. Jackson as Major Marquis Warren, Kurt Russell as John “The Hangman” Ruth, and Jennifer Jason Leigh as Daisy Domergue. The rest of the cabin is filled out by Walton Goggins as Chris Mannix, Demián Bichir as Bob, Tim Roth as Oswaldo Mobray, Michael Madsen as Joe Gage, Bruce Dern as General Sandy Smithers, James Parks as O.B. Jackson, and Channing Tatum as Jody Domergue.

An Actor Awards Recap — The Collider Movie Quiz!

The Screen Actors Guild doled out accolades eight nights ago. Is it fresh enough in your memory to survive this recap?

Is ‘The Hateful Eight’ Worth Watching?

Collider’s review of the movie stated that The Hateful Eight did little to change entrenched opinions on Quentin Tarantino, but strongly rewarded those already attuned to his style. The film was described as a confident, deliberate Western that used confinement, dialogue, and escalating tension to interrogate race, violence, and power in post-Civil War America. While not a radical reinvention, it showcased Tarantino refining his craft through structure, ensemble work, and visual detail, particularly with the 65mm presentation. The review praised the explosive second half, razor-sharp performances — especially Jennifer Jason Leigh’s — and argued the film functioned as a dark, thematically rich companion piece to Django Unchained.

“The Hateful Eight may not be Tarantino’s ‘best’ film, but it doesn’t need to be. His return to the Western genre doesn’t feel like a retread of Django, but an essential exploration of themes that couldn’t be completely examined by just one movie, especially one that took place in the antebellum South. While I wouldn’t go so far as to call The Hateful Eight a spiritual sequel to Django, it’s definitely got the same weighty topics on its mind and Tarantino — ever loquacious, bratty, frustratingly brilliant, and shockingly witty — knows just what he wants to say. Hunker down and listen up.”

The Hateful Eight is streaming now on Fawesome.

Sci-fi TV shows have taken over the medium in the last few years, with every platform looking for its newest hit. Apple TV has plenty to hang its hat on between Severance, Silo, and Pluribus, while Netflix recently wrapped up its biggest sci-fi show of all time in Stranger Things. It’s certainly a tough genre to master — one could argue that there are far more misses than hits when it comes to sci-fi TV shows each year, but they all have one thing in common: a great writer. A cool world alone isn’t enough to make a compelling sci-fi show; there must be interesting characters and a layered plot for audiences to buy into.

Hulu has found a sci-fi show worth clinging to in Paradise, the gripping thriller led by Sterling K. Brown. The show starts as a simple murder mystery, but it’s evolved into something much greater as it continues to dive deeper into its ongoing Season 2. Aside from flashbacks with President Cal Bradford (James Marsden), the entirety of Paradise Season 1 takes place inside the bunker, but Season 2 sees Xavier Collins travel outside the bunker to search for his wife. He’s run into some trouble along the way, but so far, it’s nothing a former Secret Service agent can’t handle.

After a three-episode premiere just a few weeks ago, Paradise is already more than halfway through its eight-episode season. The sci-fi show is sitting handsomely at the top of Hulu streaming charts in America, and Disney+ streaming charts in international territories. Not all that surprising, considering the show holds a Certified Fresh 91% from critics on the aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes at the time of writing. It’s eerily similar to Silo, the aforementioned Apple TV sci-fi show led by Rebecca Ferguson.

Has ‘Paradise’ Been Renewed for Season 3?

Hulu has yet to pick up Paradise for a third season officially, but this is likely more a matter of when rather than if. The show is performing well in the viewership category, and creator Dan Fogelman has been open about his three-season plan for the series. Sterling K. Brown recently confirmed that filming for Paradise Season 3 will begin in just a few months and go through the end of the summer, so a renewal announcement is likely imminent. The show will not go beyond Season 3.

When was the last time you were scared while watching a horror movie?

And I mean really scared, the kind of freaked-out that stays with you long after the movie is over.

A24’s new horror movie, Undertone, does just that. The Canadian film, out now in theaters nationwide, achieves what few other films in the genre accomplish — it projects real menace and suggests evil is lurking right behind you.

It’s 2026’s scariest film to date and joins recent films like Hereditary and Skinamarink as superior examples of elevated horror. But how did first-time feature film director Ian Tuason make a scary movie for the ages? And why is The Sopranos, HBO’s classic mob series that is definitely not scary, a key influence?

What Is ‘Undertone’ About?

Undertone centers around Evy (The Handmaid’s Tale‘s Nina Kiri), a young Canadian woman who produces a popular supernatural podcast with remote co-host Justin (The White Lotus‘ Adam DiMarco) from her quiet Toronto home. With her mother in the last stages of an unnamed terminal illness upstairs, Evy wants nothing more than to focus on her work rather than deal with her mother’s inevitable death. But when Justin finds 10 tapes that document a young couple’s haunting, Evy soon realizes she can’t avoid the ghosts of her past, present and uncertain future.

If that plot description is a little vague, that’s on purpose. Part of the pleasure of watching Undertone is letting Tuason slowly reveal what it’s all about — and what it all means.

The Origins of ‘Undertone’: From Radio to a One-of-a-Kind Horror Film Experience

“[Undertone] started as a radio play. I used to listen to a lot of narrative podcasts like Mark Phillips’ Homecoming, which was later adapted into a Prime Video show starring Julia Roberts. I was big into The Black Tapes [by Paul Mae and Terry Miles], too. I was writing the part with Justin and Evy investigating these hidden messages in these audio files when COVID hit, and then my parents got sick. I moved back into their home [to take care of them], which coincidentally is where we shot Undertone.”

“The Exorcist really freaked me out and traumatized me as a kid because it took something in your home that’s safe and weaponized it. What would happen if something similar happened to me when I was taking care of my mom? That feeling of your home safety being weaponized against you?”

“That was my answer to the next question I had: What does Evy do in between recording her podcasts? Oh, she’s taking care of her dying mom. Next thing I know, we’re filming.”

The Sounds of Terror

Undertone differs from most horror movies in that it relies more on sound to tell its story and generate its scares.

“The original script had more sound direction than camera direction,” Tuason admits. “I specifically wrote ‘the baby cries to the rear right’ in the script, and you hear that. I related everything to the frame. It’s easier for the sound editor to know what I’m thinking [and what I want].”

“I was heavily involved in the sound mix, so I just started pointing in different directions and advised them to put a bang [at a key moment in the story]. I got that idea from my background in virtual reality. I made a lot of VR content, which requires you to create a 3D soundscape. In VR, there isn’t a frame, there’s just a space.”

Undertone is a horror movie that plays with ambiguity. For the bulk of the movie, you’re not sure what’s happening to Evy. Is she imagining things? Or is she really experiencing an actual haunting, something she’s always been skeptical of believing in?

“That was intentional,’ Tuason confesses. “I wanted to maintain a feeling [of uncertainty.] What’s happening in the movie? [What Evy goes through] may or may not be paranormal, and you don’t know for sure because a faucet could turn on by itself, right? That sound she hears upstairs could be the wood expanding in the floorboards. Even when the lights turn off, and Evy sees a figure in the dark, it’s brief, and then the lights turn back on, and the figure is gone. I couldn’t write something and put it in there unless it could be plausibly explained.”

How ‘Undertone’ Elevates Horror — and Drew Inspiration from ‘The Sopranos’

The result is a scary movie like no other. Eschewing blood, guts and any need for a clear explanation, Undertone marinates in the terror of ambiguity. You can even call it “elevated horror,” even though that term has some negative connotations among genre fans.

“I just discovered that ‘elevated horror’ was an offensive term to some people. That surprised me. There’s no agreed-upon definition of what it actually means. Some people take it like ‘my horror is better than yours.’ And I can’t really define it either, but I know it when I see it, like Hereditary or The Babadook. Those movies were made by filmmakers who are experts in their craft.”

“When I was writing Undertone, I was taking ideas from different things that weren’t even in the horror genre. I took a lot from The Sopranos because I liked certain shots. I mean, some of Tony’s (James Gandolfini) dream sequences are really scary! Ultimately, I tried to make the best movie I could by making Undertone the scariest it could be.”

Mission accomplished, Ian.

Undertone is now playing in theaters.
