Hollywood loves a good comeback story and the most talked about comeback of the year has, undoubtedly, been that of Brendan Fraser.

Photography by Getty Images Y2K has finally gone too far. By Natalie Michie Date December 13, 2022 Facebook Twitter The year is 2005. Bedazzled Motorola Razrs are the definition of high-tech.

Between Hereditary and Midsommar, writer/director Ari Aster has quickly proven to be a masterful filmmaker with some seriously messed-up stories to tell. So whatever he’s got next, we’ve been on high alert. His mysterious movie with Joaquin Phoenix was announced last year, and it looks like the name has changed from Disappointment Blvd. to Beau Is Afraid – but more interesting than the title switch is what’s up with this debut poster. The official new title for the film was unveiled by A24 (the production company behind enough favorites for a thought-provoking horror movie marathon) alongside a very random and frankly,…
