When a perfect young couple moves in with an older couple, they get more than they bargained for and it permanently alters their lives. The basic premise of Shirley is simple. But when the older couple consists of troubled horror writer Shirley Jackson (Elisabeth Moss) and her professor husband, Stanley (Michael Stuhlbarg), it’s so much more complicated for aspiring professor, Fred (Logan Lerman), and his young wife, Rose (Odessa Young).

Leigh Whannell's 'The Invisible Man' Trailer Torments Elisabeth Moss
Universal’s attempt to kick off a Dark Universe based on their classic monster movies didn’t exactly get off to the best start. The less we say about The Mummy, the better. But when has that ever stopped a studio from rehashing an IP in hopes of cashing in? Next up is a reworking of The Invisible Man from director Leigh Whannell and it looks…super rad. Check out the first trailer below.

'Us' (2019) Movie Review
Following up any movie as culturally impactful, wildly popular, and generally acclaimed as Get Out is a daunting task, especially considering it was a debut feature. But Jordan Peele is back with Us, his sophomore horror yarn. I don’t want to pit it against his previous endeavor, they’re drastically different, but it is a creepy, atmospheric, weird-as-balls doppelganger horror. There’s a lot to unpack, but I think I love the way Peele’s brain works. It’s also as relevant as Hands Across America has been or ever will be.

'The Handmaid's Tale' Season 2 Trailer Lights A Fire
The first season of Hulu’s The Handmaid’sTale was not only grim and timely and captured the attention of
audiences and end-of-year awards voters for those very reasons, it also
encapsulated the entire narrative from Margaret Atwood’s 1985 dystopian novel.
Basically, the young series is in uncharted water from here on out. Where
season 2 goes remains to be seen, but we have our first look at the upcoming
episodes in this new trailer.

New 'The Handmaid's Tale' Trailer Is A Damn Scorcher
I cancelled my Hulu subscription recently. There’s great
stuff available, but between other services and an increasing lack of free
time, I simply didn’t use it enough to justify another expense. But I think I
jumped the gun, based largely on The Handmaid’s Tale. Their adaptation
of Margaret Atwood’s all-too-plausible dystopian nightmare already had my
attention, but holy hell, this new trailer is all of the fire emojis.

'The Handmaid's Tale' Trailer Intends To Survive
Hulu’s upcoming adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s speculative
fiction classic, The Handmaid’s Tale, couldn’t be timed any
better. Unless maybe it debuted late next week. We’ve seen a few stills, but
today brings our first look at actual footage. Check out the first trailer
below.

'The Handmaid's Tale': Take A First Look At Hulu's Margaret Atwood Adaptation Starring Elisabeth Moss
Earlier this year I reread Margaret Atwood’s speculative
fiction masterwork The Handmaid’s Tale. It had been a while,
but I was struck by how prescient and immediate and current the 1985 novel felt.
People are fond of debating which fictional dystopia we’re going to wind up
with—the frontrunners are always George Orwell’s 1984 and Aldous
Huxley’s Brave New World (though the current landscape
certainly feels like a synthesis of the two).
