On May 5th, the highly anticipated Paramount+ original, Death’s Roulette, will premiere. Directed by Columbian actor-director Manolo Cardona, this suspenseful thriller is reminiscent of Saw and House on Haunted Hill.

Scream VI: A Modern Neo-Slasher

Paramount+ is proud to host the entire Scream franchise, including the latest installment, Scream VI. This action-packed neo-slasher is set in New York City and has grossed over $170 million globally. Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, also known as Radio Silence, have masterfully combined action and horror to create an unforgettable cinematic experience. With Scream 7 undoubtedly on the horizon, Scream VI will dominate horror rankings throughout May.

Attack the Block: An Instant Classic

Attack the Block quickly became a fan favorite after its 2011 release. Starring John Boyega as Moses, this fast-paced alien invasion adventure showcases his talent before becoming a household name in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. In this thrilling tale, a London street gang must protect their block from extraterrestrial monsters wreaking havoc. With a sequel in pre-production, Attack the Block is a must-watch for any horror enthusiast.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers: A Timeless Classic

The 1956 classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers is now available on Paramount+. Kevin McCarthy delivers a paranoid performance as he warns everyone about the impending takeover by mysterious creatures. With a captivating cameo in the 1978 remake featuring Donald Sutherland, Veronica Cartwright, Jeff Goldblum, and Leonard Nimoy, this timeless thriller remains relevant and chilling today.

Zu: Warriors from the Magic Mountain: A Spectacular Wuxia Fantasy

Tsui Hark’s 1983 film Zu: Warriors from the Magic Mountain is an outstanding example of Hong Kong’s Wuxia martial arts fantasy genre. Yuen Biao stars as a young soldier caught in a war between two rival armies during the Tang Dynasty. After seeking refuge in the mystical Zu Mountain, he encounters supernatural forces led by a Blood Demon intent on world destruction. This visually stunning film inspired John Carpenter’s Big Trouble in Little China and is available on Paramount+ in a 2K restoration.

Iron Maiden & Soundgarden Secure Top Positions: Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Fan Vote

Iron Maiden & Soundgarden Secure Top Positions: Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Fan Vote

The Power of Fans: Iron Maiden and Soundgarden Outperform Other Renowned Artists

In an unexpected turn of events, Iron Maiden and Soundgarden have made it to the top 5 in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame fan vote this year. With fan voting now closed, both bands have surpassed well-known artists such as The White Stripes, Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, and, regrettably, Rage Against The Machine. The top 5 fan-voted artists include:

  1. George Michael, with 1,040,872 votes
  2. Cyndi Lauper, with 928,113 votes
  3. Warren Zevon, with 634,130 votes
  4. Iron Maiden, with 449,682 votes
  5. Soundgarden, with 427,020 votes

However, it is crucial to note that this doesn’t guarantee Iron Maiden and Soundgarden’s entry into the Rock Hall’s Class of 2023. The fan vote represents only one portion of the final vote, with Hall members’ votes being tallied this month.

Eligibility and History: Iron Maiden and Soundgarden’s Road to the Rock Hall

To qualify for the Rock Hall’s Class of 2023, artists must have released their first single or album in 1998 or earlier. Iron Maiden unveiled their self-titled debut album in 1980, making them eligible for 18 years now; Soundgarden isn’t far behind, having released their debut EP, Screaming Life, in 1987.

The potential inductees for Iron Maiden include Clive Burr, Paul Di’Anno, Bruce Dickinson, Janick Gers, Steve Harris, Nicko McBrain, Dave Murray, Adrian Smith, and Dennis Stratton. Iron Maiden had previously been nominated in 2021. Still, they were overlooked to the extent that the CEO had to address the situation. Even the band Kiss expressed their dissatisfaction with the issue.

Soundgarden’s potential inductees are Matt Cameron, Chris Cornell, Ben Shepherd, Kim Thayil, and Hiro Yamamoto. Soundgarden has only been nominated once before, in 2020. Both of Soundgarden’s nominations occurred after the passing of Chris Cornell in 2017.

The Ongoing Struggle of Rage Against The Machine

Rage Against The Machine has been nominated for the Rock Hall in 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, and now 2023 without success. However, there is always the possibility of another attempt in 2024.

Conclusion: An Exciting Time for Iron Maiden and Soundgarden Fans

While the fan vote alone does not guarantee Iron Maiden and Soundgarden’s induction into the Rock Hall’s Class of 2023, it certainly demonstrates the unwavering support of their fans. As the final decision approaches, fans of both bands eagerly await the outcome. Regardless of the results, the impressive fan vote performance is a testament to the lasting impact and popularity of Iron Maiden and Soundgarden in the world of rock music.

Grindcore is a controversial type of tumult music that has been around since the 1980’s. It combines a malestrom of barbarity musical elements from the darkest corners of heavy metal and hardcore punk, resulting in a unique sound that is both aggressive and mentally healing.

At its core, grindcore is all about speed and intensity. The fast-paced blast beats and guitar riffs are often accompanied by screamed or growled vocals, making for a frenzied listening experience. Lyrics tend to focus on themes such as social injustice or political turmoil, adding to the overall sense of anger and aggression. Despite its relatively niche appeal, grindcore has had an undeniable impact on the wide range of genres within heavy metal. Its influence can be heard in everything from black metal to death metal, as well as other subgenres such as metalcore, powerviolence and crust punk.

Jerry Springer, Tabloid Talk Show Pioneer, Passes Away at 79

April 27, 2023 at 10:40 a.m. EDT

Jerry Springer, the one-time Cincinnati mayor who went on to create a television phenomenon with his namesake talk show, passed away on April 27 at his residence in suburban Chicago. He was 79 years old.

Linda Shafran, Springer’s long-serving publicist, announced his passing in a statement, without mentioning the cause of death.

From Mayor to Television Sensation


Before his rise to television fame, Springer worked as a lawyer and served as Cincinnati’s mayor in the late 1970s. He later transitioned into a career as a network news anchor before launching “Jerry Springer,” the controversial talk show that premiered in 1991.

Controversial and Captivating Show


The program ran for an impressive 27 seasons and nearly 5,000 episodes, captivating millions of American viewers while critics denounced it as exploitative and sensationalist. Howard Rosenberg, a television critic for the Los Angeles Times, wrote in 1997 that “Springer wears his sleaze and slime like a chest full of medals.”

Provocative Episodes and Scandals


The show was known for its provocative episode titles such as “Threesomes With Grandma” and “I Married a Horse,” the latter of which led some TV stations to refuse to air it in 1998 due to discussions of bestiality and interspecies relationships. In a particularly memorable episode titled “Klanfrontation!”, Jewish Defense League leader Irv Rubin clashed with hooded Ku Klux Klan members.

In 2000, Nancy Campbell-Panitz, a guest on Springer’s show, was tragically murdered by her ex-husband after appearing on an episode featuring love triangles.

Springer’s Perspective on His Show


Springer occasionally distanced himself from the series while also defending its entertainment value. In a 2000 interview with Reuters, he stated, “I would never watch my show. I’m not interested in it; it’s not aimed toward me. This is just a silly show. I don’t take it seriously. But when people argue about the show intellectually, then I’m prepared to answer about why I think it is okay to do it and why I think it’s important that shows like that are on the air.”

Remembering Jerry Springer’s Legacy


As news of Jerry Springer’s passing spread, fans and former guests of the show took to social media to share their memories and express their condolences. Despite the controversy surrounding the show, many acknowledged the significant impact it had on popular culture and the talk show landscape.

Impact on Television and Popular Culture


“Jerry Springer” paved the way for other talk shows to push the boundaries of conventional television. His show’s format, which often featured outrageous guests and dramatic confrontations, influenced a generation of television producers and hosts. While some argued that Springer’s show contributed to the decline of television standards, others maintained that it provided a platform for people to share their unconventional stories and experiences.

Springer’s Philanthropy and Civic Engagement


Outside of his television career, Jerry Springer was known for his philanthropic work and civic engagement. He supported various charities and participated in fundraising events to benefit causes close to his heart. Throughout his life, Springer remained involved in politics, occasionally commenting on political issues and using his public platform to advocate for social change.

A Lasting Legacy

The show’s controversial nature and Springer’s ability to connect with his audience made it a unique and memorable part of television history. While “Jerry Springer” may have been divisive, it left an indelible mark on the industry and will continue to be a topic of discussion for years to come.

Tributes Pour In for the Late Talk Show Host


As the news of Jerry Springer’s passing continued to circulate, celebrities and television personalities alike shared their tributes and reactions on social media. They acknowledged his contributions to the entertainment industry and the way his show changed the landscape of talk shows forever.

Celebrity Reactions and Tributes


Talk show hosts, actors, and other celebrities expressed their condolences and shared personal anecdotes about their interactions with Springer. Many highlighted his sense of humor, charisma, and the unique ability to connect with people from all walks of life.

Some praised Springer for creating a platform that gave a voice to individuals who might not have otherwise been heard, while others reminisced about their favorite moments from the show, showcasing the lasting impact of his work.

Reflections on Springer’s Career


Media pundits and television critics also weighed in on Springer’s career, offering a more balanced perspective on his legacy. They acknowledged the controversy and polarizing nature of “Jerry Springer” but also recognized the undeniable influence it had on television programming and its role in breaking down barriers.

In the years following the end of “Jerry Springer,” many television shows adopted elements of its format, incorporating dramatic confrontations and shocking subject matter. This shift in television programming is, in part, a testament to Springer’s lasting impact on the industry.

Legacy and Impact


Despite its controversies, “Jerry Springer” became a cultural phenomenon and cemented Springer’s place in American pop culture. The show spawned numerous imitators, including “The Maury Povich Show” and “The Steve Wilkos Show.” Springer also made numerous appearances on other television shows, including “Dancing With the Stars” and “America’s Got Talent.”

However, Springer’s legacy will always be intertwined with the controversies and tragedies associated with his show. While he defended the show’s entertainment value, its critics saw it as exploitative and sensationalist.
