At first glance I thought, “What a cool Hellboy poster.” A closer inspection and I thought Hellboy is appears really short. I think it’s because we can’t see his legs and his head looks too large for his body.
Am I wrong?
The Passage has one last trailer before tomorrow night’s premiere. I can’t wait!

History Channel’s Project Blue Book looks like something that many of us are going to enjoy. Here’s the synopsis…
HISTORY’s upcoming new drama series ‘Project Blue Book’ is based on the true, top-secret investigations into Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and related phenomena conducted by the United States Air Force from 1952 to 1969.
Dr. J. Allen Hynek (Aidan Gillen), a brilliant yet underappreciated college professor, is recruited by the U.S. Air Force to spearhead a clandestine operation called Project Blue Book. Along with his partner, the debonair Air Force Captain Michael Quinn (Michael Malarkey), he is summoned to investigate UFO sightings around the country and use science to discover what really happened. However, when some encounters cannot be explained away and cases remain open, Hynek begins to suspect that he has been duped by the government into a larger conspiracy to cover up the truth. Set against the backdrop of the Cold War and rising Atomic Era, each episode will draw from the actual Project Blue Book case files, blending UFO theories with authentic historical events from one of the most mysterious eras in United States history.
Here are three trailers to give you a bit of a taste…
The Us Poster and Trailer are Here! The poster is ok, but the trailer rocks!
Bird Box (2018)
Director: Susanne Bier
Screenplay: Eric Heisserer based on the novel by Josh Malerman
Stars: Sandra Bullock, Trevante Rhodes, John Malkovich, Sarah Paulson, Jacki Weaver and B.D. Wong.
The Pitch: “Let’s turn the apocalyptic novel Bird Box into a movie!”
Tagline: Never Lose Sight of Survival.
The Overview: Beware of Spoilers…
When an unknown global pandemic strikes a diverse group of strangers find themselves barricaded in a house. They soon discover that unknown entities are causing people who see them to go crazy and kill themselves or others. As the time they’re holed up grows longer and supplies grow smaller, they become as much a threat to each other as the unknown that awaits outside.
I’m a huge fan of apocalyptic movies where strangers must find a way to get along to survive. Bird Box falls into this category and doesn’t disappoint. Although this is clearly a Sandra Bullock showcase, she is surrounded by an excellent supporting cast. Trevante Rhodes is especially good.
Fans of The Mist, World War Z and the like should really enjoy this new twist on the apocalypse.

Syfy Wire presents Everything You Didn’t Know About Invasion of the Body Snatchers! I’ve enjoyed all versions a bit, but there’s no beating the original!
The Hellboy trailer is here and I have real mixed feelings about it. Hellboy looks cool and I like the supporting cast, but the tone looks more like comedy than horror… and the comedy wasn’t that funny.
Here’s the synopsis for Kingdom, a six episode mini-series coming to Netflix on January 25, 2019:
In a kingdom defeated by corruption and famine, a mysterious plague spreads to turn the infected into monsters. The crown prince, framed for treason and desperate to save his people, sets out on a journey to unveil what evil lurks in the dark.
If you like what you’ve read, my best is you’ll love the trailer. I sure did.
This international trailer makes me want to see Glass even more!
