Shudder’s Host Brilliantly Adds Paranormal Activity to Our Pandemic: Review
The Pitch: Tired of Zoom calls? Bored of the same ol’ small talk? How about a seance to spice up your quarantine? Such is the conceit of Rob Savage’s Host. This swift, 56-minute capsule of terror follows a group of friends who tap into some paranormal activity amidst our ensuing pandemic — and, yes, we do mean ours. The whole thing was shot entirely during lockdown, and the all-too-palpable reality of Covid-19 surrounds these unfortunate souls, only it’s the last thing they need to fear. No Upcoming Meetings Today: Like Dave Franco’s The Rental, the concept here alone demands a watch of Host. This is ingenuity at its finest, and its origin story is almost as exciting as the film’s brazen execution. What started out as a Zoom prank gone viral — Savage tweeted video of himself investigating ...

Rivaldo: Philippe Coutinho could be a regular at Arsenal or Spurs
Rivaldo says a return to the Premier League is the “best option” for Philippe Coutinho to take this summer, and that the Barcelona flop “could be a regular starter” at Arsenal or Tottenham next season. Coutinho is due to head back to Barca at the end of the season following a loan spell at Bayern Munich, who have already decided against signing the midfielder on a permanent deal. Quique Setien, who inherited the managerial reins at Camp Nou in January, insisted that the 28-year-old could be a part of his plans for next season when addressing speculation over his future during the coronavirus-enforced lockdown. However, Coutinho’s agent revealed this week that there’s been “a lot of genuine interest” in his client over the past few months, and that he would like to secure a move back to Eng...
Madonnna Heralds Demon Semen Doctor As “My Hero” Following Bizarre COVID-19 Presser
Madonna and Dr. Stella Immanuel Oh, Madonna, what a ride you’ve taken us in recent months. One second you’re donating 100,000 surgical masks to jails and prisons, they next you’re sharing weird bathtub takes on COVID-19 and paying tribute to George Floyd in the cringiest way possible. Now, you’ve gone and stepped in it again by circulating a video from a fringe group called America’s Frontline Doctors — and getting censored in the process. In case you missed it (and hopefully you did), on Monday a handful of “doctors” stood on the steps of the US Capitol to deliver a press conference touting the largely unproven effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment or cure. Right-wing news organization Breitbart was the only outlet to livestream the hastily o...
