Former The Walking Dead co-star Austin Amelio was on the small balcony filming a Twd Season 8 scene with stuntman John Bernecker in 2017 when Bernecker fell over, missing the protective pads underneath by two feet and landing on the concrete head-first. He died two days later from the severe head injuries.
“I saw the whole thing, I was in complete and utter shock,” Amelio told the jury Friday in emotional testimony at the wrongful death trial of The Walking Dead stuntman. “It was the worst day of my life.”
During the opening week of the trial in Gwinnett County, Ga, attorneys for the plaintiff, Bernecker’s mom Susan, tried to convince the jury Bernecker’s death was preventable and the result of negligence on the part of the production. AMC’s legal team argued Bernecker’s death stemmed from human error on the stuntman’s part, saying he grasped the rail...

This is the first trailer released for a new haunted house horror thriller called Delirium. It doesn't look like a great horror movie, but it does look like it might be fun to watch. The story follows a group of teens who dare one of their friends to walk up to the porch of a legendary haunted house and he ends up disappearing. So his friends decide to go on in after him, and as you'll see, terror awaits them.
What I like about this is that this is stuff my brothers, friends, and I would do all the time when we were growing up! It was always fun exploring abanded old building and houses that we thought were haunted! Here's the synopsis:
The Hell Gang, an exclusive group of friends, promise a schoolmate that he can join their gang if he can just make it to the porch of...

"I didn't have a good feeling about this..." Gravitas Ventures has debuted the first official trailer for a horror thriller titled Delirium, which first premiered last year but is just getting a release in early 2018. This is actually one of the first feature films made by former stuntman and second unit director Johnny Martin, who later went on to direct Vengeance: A Love Story with Nicolas Cage, and Hangman with Al Pacino, both also released this year (before this film). Delirium is about a group of teens who dare a classmate to reach the porch of a legendary old house, but he never comes back. So they gear up and go in themselves to get him. Starring Mike C. Manning, Griffin Freeman, August Roads, Ryan Pinkston, Seth Austin, and Elena Sanchez. This looks like a very wild, testosterone-filled haunted house horror flick. Tread carefully. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Johnny Martin's Delirium,...

The internet may be a useful everyday tool that we take for granted, but at its core, it has the power to be devastating and deadly. In the darkest reaches of the web are the most horrifying of possibilities, and even if you’ve never been a victim yourself, chances are you’ve at least heard some terrifying stories involving the deep web.
The upcoming Lrm-exclusive digital series, Dark/Web, will be tackling some of those possibilities. The single story will be told over the course of the eight-part series, but embedded into each of the episodes are bite-sized “segments” that act as mini-anthologies within the show.

Here's a tough question: Do you judge Nate Parker's The Birth of a Nation as a film, or put the man behind it on trial as a former student at Penn State in 1999 who was accused of raping an 18-year-old woman – a crime for which he was acquitted. I'll leave the playing God stuff to social media, where it thrives, and stick to what's onscreen which, by any standard, is a monumental achievement.
The Birth of a Nation is a passion project for Parker, who labored for seven years...

Director: Charles Beeson. Writers: Eric Kripke and Matt Pitts. Executive Producers: Jon Favereau, and J.J. Abrams. Cast: James Alcorn, Nadej K Bailey, Griffin Freeman, Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Giancarlo Esposito, Zak Orth, David Lyons and Daniella Alonso. In "The Children's Crusade," Miles (Billy Burke) and his group are again distracted from their search for Danny (Graham Rogers). This time Charlie (Tracy Spiridakos) is caught up and sucked into a sob story involving several orphaned children. One in their group has been captured, Peter (Griffin Freeman), and his brother, Michael, wants him back. Rescuing Danny can pretty much be forgotten at this point. The next fourty minutes is spent in a swashbuckling episode that puts Charlie in a precarious position. This was an exciting episode despite the show's main plot moving forward ever so slowly. The children, "a hairless group of Ewoks" (Aaron), have been left alone by their parents for eight years now.
