Blood, Guts, and Artistry: Horror Films Too Intense for the Faint of Heart

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 14: There’s horror — and then there’s this. The kind that doesn’t just scare you, but rearranges your moral compass while doing so. These are not popcorn thrillers or haunted mansion stories. They’re cinematic vivisections: calculated exercises in discomfort that make you wonder why you ever trusted light switches, bathrooms, or your own empathy. The filmmakers here are not entertainers — they are surgeons of dread, philosophers of pain. Their lenses capture fear in its rawest form: skin peeling, nerves twitching, morality dissolving. And yet, behind every squelch and scream lies meticulous craft — an art…

‘Misri’: When Love, Law, and Lights Collide — Gujarat’s Sweetest Scandal Hits the Screens

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 12: It was supposed to be a love story, not a law-and-order case. But then again, what’s cinema without a little chaos? Misri, the Gujarati romantic drama that was meant to melt hearts, ended up stirring a moral debate (and a few police reports) before even hitting the big screen. Set against the sun-soaked charm of Ahmedabad, Misri has found itself in the spotlight — and not just for its cinematic storytelling. A promotional stunt, quite literally involving stunts, turned what was meant to be a breezy marketing move into a cautionary tale on how not…

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 12: If Bollywood had a mirror, De De Pyaar De 2 would be the reflection it’s slightly embarrassed to look at — equal parts glossy and self-aware, humorous yet haunted by déjà vu. Ajay Devgn is back, playing that dangerously likeable man who mistakes emotional maturity for gym endurance, and once again, his heart (and age) find themselves in the middle of a romantic tug-of-war. Released under the banner of T-Series and Luv Films, this sequel arrives six years after the 2019 hit De De Pyaar De, with early numbers suggesting both nostalgia and skepticism are…

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 12: There are films that entertain, and then there are films that assert dominance — the latter being where Predator: Badlands has comfortably pitched its tent (and maybe a few skulls). Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, the same man who brought eerie precision to 10 Cloverfield Lane, this latest entry in the Predator franchise walks the fine line between cinematic spectacle and primal chaos. Released worldwide in early November 2025, the film has already torn through the global box office with an $80 million opening weekend — the biggest in franchise history — and approximately ₹9 crore…
