| Cursed Films II Returns for More Deep Dives Into Hollywood's Weirdest History Posted: 07 Apr 2022 01:30 PM PDT  Shudder's documentary series Cursed Films returns this week, and since season one got the heavy hitters out of the way (Poltergeist, The Omen, The Exorcist, The Crow, Twilight Zone: The Movie), season two allows for a somewhat looser interpretation of the series theme—though Hollywood nightmares still abound. |

| Star Trek: Picard Is Getting a Little Unhinged, And I Kind of Like It Posted: 07 Apr 2022 11:00 AM PDT  At one point near the climax of this week's Star Trek: Picard, a character exasperatedly says "Fine, why not?
