The Curse of La Lloronais an interesting oddity. With a dead-faced title ghoul and jump scares a-plenty, it certainly feels like an entry in producerJames Wan’s growingConjuringUniverse. But outside of an appearance byTony Amendola’s Father Perez from Annabelle and a brief reference to “an incident with a doll”,La Lloronais mostly a standalone look at Mexico’s legendary Weeping Woman. Apparently, that wasn’t always the case. In an interview withGamespot, directorMichael Chavesrevealed a deleted La Llorona scene would have put the Weeping Woman’s trademark necklace in the hands ofThe Conjuringfilms' Ed and Lorraine Warren (Patrick WilsonandVera Farmiga)....

WithThe Kitchennow playing in theaters, I recently sat down with writer-directorAndrea Berloffto talk about the film. Based on the DC Vertigo comic book series of the same name,The Kitchenis set in 1978 Hell’s Kitchen and revolves around three housewives (Melissa McCarthy,Elisabeth MossandTiffany Haddish) whose mobster husbands are sent to prison by the FBI. They’re then forced to take matters into their own hands by assuming control of the Irish mafia....

Imagine: What if, thanks to the hard work of scientists, modern society has created a test that can determine, with 100 percent accuracy, who your perfect romantic match is. No more bad dates, no more heartache — all the guesswork involved in falling in love is a thing of the past. Whether or not that sounds like a dream or a nightmare, there’s no denying that it’s an interesting premise for a drama, which is perhaps why not one but two different British shows have come out in the last six months which are about exactly that: Last fall’sSoulmates, which aired on AMC, and the brand-newThe One, now streaming on Netflix....

I’m a big fan of what 20th Century Fox has done with their revitalizedPlanet of the Apesfranchise.Rise of the Planet of the Apessuccessfully rebooted the title back in 2011, acting as a palate cleanser toTim Burton’s 2001 mess of an attempt. Then, defying all expectations, the 2014 sequelDawn of the Planet of the Apesoutdid its predecessor, shifting the focus to Caesar as he rallied his fellow apes against the humans. Now, this summer’sWar for the Planet of the Apeslooks to be the most action-packed installment yet, but it also promises to have unique characters for audiences to meet....

I absolutely lovedThe LEGO Movie. It’s one of those rare films that works for any age group and it’s the type of movie you can watch again and again and always find something new. So when the film was a monster hit at the worldwide box office, it was no surprise that Warner Bros. moved ahead with a number of different types of sequels. But unlike some franchises that seem like a cash grab by the studio, I’m all in on every one of these because I think there are plenty of worlds and characters ripe for exploration....

Eight years ago, directorPeter Chan(Warlords) began developing the story forShe’s Got No Name, a true crime thriller that recently celebrated its world premiere at Cannes Film Festival. He was trying to find his way into the real-life story of housewifeZhan-Zhou, the “husband killer,” portrayed in the film byZhang Ziyi(Memoirs of a Geisha), but over the years, Chan saw the period piece as a multilayered tale of self-discovery and resiliency, themes that mirrored the political state of Shanghai under Japanese occupation....

When the NBC legal drama,Suits, launched in 2011, it is fair to say that the show made a very real impression on audiences.
