In the new animated feature film WAR OF THE WORLDS: GOLIATH, now in theatres and on VoD, World War I is about to break loose, but Earth has a bigger problem – a new Martian invasion. Good thing that, in this version of history, a multi-national task force has built weaponry that can stand up to the alien assault, with soldiers of all countries (and both genders) putting aside their differences to save our planet from a common enemy. Adrian Paul voices one of the main characters, an Irishman who finds his loyalties tested by certain aspects of the conflict. […]Read On »

MARVEL’S AGENTS OF SHIELD has taken a long time to get here – like 14 episodes too long […]Read On »

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Kristen Hager, Mark Pellegrino, Amy Aquino, Vincent Leclerc, Andreas Apergis Writer: Casey Fisher, adapted for U.S. television by Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke, created for U.K. television by Toby Whithouse Director: Stefan Pleszcyznski Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: March 10, 2014 Happily, BEING HUMAN doesn’t decide to permanently warp the timeline. Given that we’ve spent three-and-a-half seasons investing in the one already provided, dumping it now would be a cheat of huge proportions. In “Too Far, Fast Forward!” things get set right – though it’s not clear exactly how – and […]Read On »

Sam Underwood seems like decent, level-headed fellow in person. However, the English actor has played a number of highly disturbed Americans. There was Dexter’s would-be apprentice Zach in the final season of DEXTER and Dana Brody’s unstable boyfriend Leo on Season 3 of HOMELAND. Now, in Season 2 of THE FOLLOWING on Fox, Mondays at 9 PM, Underwood portrays twin serial killers Luke and Mark, whose mother Lily (Connie Nielsen) is even more warped than they are. At an event held by Fox for the Television Critics Association, Underwood talks about playing dangerous men. AX: Did you audition for THE […]Read On »
