A dark new force has entered the lives of our Parkhurst faves and their lives will never be the same again. Friendships will be pushed, lovers tested and not everyone will make it out alive.

Wednesday is an American coming of age supernatural horror comedy television series based upon the character Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family. Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, it stars Jenna Ortega as the titular character, with Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Isaac Ordonez, and Gwendoline Christie appearing in supporting roles. Four out of the eight episodes are directed by Tim Burton, who also serves as executive producer.

The comic jokes about learning German, speaking ill of the dead, judging people in horror movies, and ordering Indian food in Scotland.

Slumberland is a 2022 American fantasy adventure film directed by Francis Lawrence and written by David Guion and Michael Handelman. It is based on the comic strip, Little Nemo in Slumberland, by Winsor McCay. The film stars Jason Momoa and Marlow Barkley with Chris O'Dowd, Kyle Chandler and Weruche Opia in supporting roles.

The comic ponders romance, racist hotel showers, post-coital bedtime prayers, and why he loves women of a certain age

The School for Good and Evil is a 2022 fantasy film directed by Paul Feig. It is based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Soman Chainani, with the screenplay is written by David Magee and Feig.

This sci-fi vignette sets the stage for one of the most original tales we’ve seen from the genre in some time. It’s straight from the pages of your favorite classic science fiction dime store novel, and it revels in its weirdness. Just when you think you know what’s going to happen, it blindsides you with something you weren’t expecting.

For instance, it’s easy to assume that the ship’s crew was recreated because the original humans died, but the additional wrinkle that their real selves are alive has disturbing implications. Are these living, breathing people going to die when the migrant ship arrives at their intended new planet? What is life and who is allowed to decide where a clone may live? These are heady questions that Exception introduces, but doesn’t force on the audience – they will be in the back of your mind as it progresses, however.

Further, Exception is a visually arresting feast. It may not look anything like what you’re used to from the anime world, but it’s a treat for the eyes and steeped in nontraditional design. Everything about Exception is otherworldly, from top to bottom. Most of that is due to legendary character designer Yoshitaka Amano, who was responsible for bringing the cast to life, but there’s an unsettling eerieness that permeates just about every part of the series.

It’s a fun kind of weird that we don’t see enough of in Western or anime series, and I’m thrilled to see that no punches were pulled bringing this story to fruition.
