TV Recap: AMERICAN HORROR STORY FREAK SHOW "EDWARD MORDRAKE PT. 2"

TV Recap: AMERICAN HORROR STORY FREAK SHOW "EDWARD MORDRAKE PT. 2" By: Suepafly The Freak Show remains quiet on Halloween, with Edward Mordrake's eerie green fog accompanies his ghost around as he questions other freaks looking for the one to add to his troupe. So far he has not found the one pure freak to add to his group. He makes them all confess their sin, telling him how they came to be a part of the show. He wants their darkest moments. The woman with no legs stabbed a man she was jealous of, though he had inspired to perform. The microcephalics, Pepper and Salty, dance around innocently, not a care in the world or even notice that Mordrake is watching them. Paul sought solace in the dark, he came during the depression though. People hated his deformity, and he hated them, wanted to make them fear him, so he tattooed his body, but not his handsome face. He could have ruled the world with a different body. None of them are the one he's looking for. Mordrake

Dr. Mansfield believes that the the specimen was a loser in life, and at least in death they have value. One of his specimens are brought into questions, as are his medical credentials. The curator tells him that they're obviously creative people, and if they bring her some truly authentic specimens then she would happily take them. She use to get calls from actual freak shows when one of their passed, selling the bodies to her museum, but there are few freak shows left in the country.

The town is on lockdown after the recent murders, and kidnapping. Most people are choosing to stay in doors. Even a detective is missing, and the police are out for blood. A pair of detectives arrive with questions. Jimmy sends them to see Elsa. The detectives are free to look around with an escort. Elsa tells them that they can see the monsters if they buy a ticket to the show, but there won’t be a show, they’re about to impose a curfew. Dot and Bette arrive, and the detectives remark about their missing hospital patient, but they were no longer ill, so there was no reason to stay. They had given their statement to the missing detective whom they say reeked of booze, and he concluded that their mother’s death matched the others. Mr. Henley’s shop worker returns, and finds

Yes A Sequel To Olympus Has Fallen Is Called London Has Fallen

Though we’re still slightly pinching ourselves to figure out if this is real, the word arrives from Screen International , not some random rumor site, so we’re going ahead: a sequel to Olympus Has Fallen is in development, Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and more are on to return and it’ll be called London Has Fallen . Yes, in the seemingly endless series of films where London Gets It In The Neck (damn these good tax incentives and excellent production facilities!), Nu Image is putting together a package deal for the new movie ready to tempt buyers at the American Film Market. This time around, the plot will see a terrorist threat to the capital during the funeral of the Prime Minister. Naturally, Eckhart’s President Benjamin Asher, ace Secret Service officer Mike Banning ( Butler ) and Speaker Trumbull ( Freeman ) are all present and must now wade in to help. Angela Bassett and Radha Mitchell will show up again too and the producers are looking for someone to pl

OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN DVD Review

OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN DVD Review By: MattInRC The Die Hard/Air Force One action thriller OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN is fun, exciting fare. I've always considered Gerard Butler to be one of the least utilized actors in Hollywood. Best known as Leonidas in the amazing visual feast known as 300 , Butler's phyique and stage presence instantly won over fans who worshipped him as a bonified action star. He was even considered for the role of James Bond before Daniel Craig was ultimately given the keys to the Aston Martin. Then, something happened: Butler began showing up in RomComs and other lesser action titles, of which none suited or matched his talents. When your film diet consists of Playing for Keeps and The Ugly Truth , one might start to think you're the victim of a cruel joke. Luckily, someone saw the action hero in Butler, and OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN represents the perfect return to the place where he should have been all along. Butler plays Mike Banning, a

Emma Roberts Joins American Horror Story: Coven

FX is welcoming another member into its coven. Emma Roberts is joining the third-season cast of American Horror Story: Coven. Details on which character the actress will play are being kept under wraps other than the fact she's a party girl. While little is known about the witch-themed season three of American Horror Story , producers said at PaleyFest in March that the series would again search for haunted places in America. Co-creator Ryan Murphy previously told The Hollywood Reporter that next year would feature three characters playing real people, with co-star Kathy Bates being one of them. Roberts joins a growing cast in the anthology from Glee's Murphy and Brad Falchuk that also includes her boyfriend Evan Peters , who will be back for his third run. Previously announced co-stars for season three include Angela Bassett, Patti LuPone, Gabourey Sidibe, Bates and returning players Jessica Lange, Peters, Sarah Paulson, Taissa Farmiga, Frances Conroy and Lily Rab
