    Andrew Getty — grandson of J. Paul Getty — sank an estimated $4 million to $6 million of his own fortune into the horror film, which he obsessed over right up until his death in 2015.

    More..

    Now released in the U.S. available on VOD and DVD, the psychological horror stands out in no small part because of its somewhat protracted production (almost 15 years), and also its director: a Getty oil heir who died at age 47 before seeing the film completed, becoming another chapter in his family’s tragic history.

    The story may seen standard genre fare: a mentally challenged boy has his dreams haunted by demonic creature who orders him to embark on a murderous rampage, collecting the bodies in his basement.

    But for Andrew Getty — grandson of J. Paul Getty — his first and only feature wasn’t just a passion project; it was something borne from his own powerfully twisted nightmares.

    A conservative radio host whom President Donald Trump has credited with being instrumental to his upset victory claims he was assaulted outside a California restaurant Tuesday night.

    Michael Savage, the 74-year-old host of the nationally syndicated talk radio show Savage Nation, was dining solo at Servino Ristorante in Tiburon, with his toy poodle, Teddy, keeping him company, when another patron allegedly began taunting him by saying, ‘weener, weener.’

    The heckler was apparently referring to Savage’s legal name, Michael Alan Weiner.

    As Savage was heading out the door, the verbal abuse allegedly turned physical when the jeerer knocked the septuagenarian to the ground, according to the talk show host’s attorney, Daniel Horowitz.

    When another diner tried to step in between the brawlers, he was punched in the face, Horowitz told the Mercury News.

    Savage’s beloved 12-year-old pooch also got shoved after getting caught in the middle of the scuffle.

    The disturbance at the Italian restaurant at a shopping center on Main Street has been confirmed by the Tiburon Police Department.

    When police officers arrived at the scene at around 8.25pm Tuesday, they found that Savage and his attacker had each placed the other under citizen’s arrest.

    IFILM REPORTS

    That first piece of news comes our way via Variety’s Justin Kroll, who took to Twitter to report that Reeves is working on War For the Planet of the Apes until the end of June, confirming earlier reports from Mark Hughes at Forbes and Sean Gerber of the Batman News podcast. That means The Batman won’t even begin production until 2018 at the earliest, which means that the rumored 2018 release date is impossible.

    FRIGHTFUL FLIGHT FIRE

    During a flight from Beijing, China, to Melbourne, Australia, a passenger was sleeping when suddenly her face began to feel hot.

    About two hours into the flight, the woman’s headphones exploded, burning her face and singeing her hair, according to a press release published on Tuesday by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau.

    “As I went to turn around I felt burning on my face. I just grabbed my face which caused the headphones to go around my neck,” the unidentified woman said in a statement. “I continued to feel burning so I grabbed them off and threw them on the floor. They were sparking and had small amounts of fire.”

    Images show the woman’s cheek and lips covered in soot and charred pieces of hair along the top of her head.

    The press release says flight attendants were already pouring water on the headphones before the woman could begin stamping the fire out.

    This is one of those you ‘need to view it yourself’ type of videos.. A ghost attack in a forest? … you be the judge.

    From what is known.. or thought to be known: It was filmed in India..

    The video, which was shared on YouTube on Saturday, was allegedly filmed by a CCTV camera which had been set up to keep track of local wildlife.

    Nobody knows for sure what sent the boy crashing to the ground, but the uploader describes the ghostly attacker as a “black, shaped entity.”

    The IT remake coming this autumn have left movie-goers screaming.. The website BLOODY DISGUSTING, linked to INDEPENDENT, and shared worldwide on Drudge, reports this:

    The trailer opens with footage of Bill Denbrough making a paper boat for his little brother Georgie. We then move outside, where Georgie is chasing his boat in a rainstorm as it floats next to the curb,” the description reads. “Suddenly, Georgie runs right into a street barrier, which knocks him down on the ground. He then watches as his boat sails into a gutter. He runs to the gutter and tries to see if he can see his boat. As he looks deep into the sewers, Pennywise abruptly appears before the screen cuts to black.”

    The members of the Loser’s Club then meet up and realise they’ve all been seeing the same entity until finally someone says ‘The Clown.

    The description continues: “The teaser then moves into its centrepiece, which shows the members of the Loser’s Club looking at pictures on a carousel slide projector that suddenly acquires a life of its own and begins moving through the slides at an increasingly alarming speed. The pictures are of Georgie and his parents, and each slide zooms in on Georgie’s face before cutting to his mother, whose hair is covering her face. As the projector moves from slide to slide, the hair moves out of his mother’s face, and her face is revealed to be that of Pennywise himself.

    “The trailer then blows through a flurry of shots, as most trailers are known to do. The most striking image from this succession of shots is the unforgettable moment when blood flows out of Beverly’s sink, only in Muschietti’s film it spews out like a geyser and blasts her in the face. There is also a sublime image of Pennywise approaching two of the children (he has them cornered against a wall), but the shot is framed in a way so that only his long, bony fingers fill the screen. The children are in the background, out of focus but clearly terrified

    Expect a lot of clowns this year starting in August, if not earlier. And with it, Halloween costumes galore of Pennywise vs the Losers Club..

    WHAT IF! What if the blue water of earth was where the land is.. and the land was where the water would be.. There would be few national boundaries and few continents divided by water. It would mostly be on large continent continuous around the world.

    Some alternate dimension probably houses this very look.
