EVERYTHING DECAYS IN THE HAUNTED TRAILER FOR EMILY MORTIMER'S HORROR THRILLER MOVIE RELIC! SPANISH PRINCESS SEASON 2 TRAILER IS HERE

     'RELIC' TRAILER 

PUTS POOR EMILY MORTIMER IN A SCARY HAUNTED HOUSE

We are not used to seeing Emily Mortimer in horror movies, but I'm guessing there is first time for everything: RELIC, which also stars Robyn

Relic already aired in some countries this summer

Nevin and Bella Heathcote, will open October 30th, directed by Natalie Erika James who also wrote the script.

When elderly mother Edna inexplicably vanishes, her daughter Kay and granddaughter Sam rush to their family's decaying country home, finding clues of her increasing dementia scattered around the house in her absence. After Edna returns just as mysteriously as she disappeared, Kay's concern that her mother seems unwilling or unable to say where she's been clashes with Sam's unabashed enthusiasm to have her grandma back. As

Edna's behaviour turns increasingly volatile, both begin to sense that an insidious presence in the house might be taking control of her.

PRINCESS epic series, might scare you to death and afterlife too! In the 2nd run, which stars October 11th at Starz, we continue the story of Queen Catherine and Henry VIII that was started in the tragically poorly written, acted, cast and directed first season. Presiding over the most glamorous court in Europe and beloved by their people, together they create an England that is proud, confident and strong enough to withstand threat from abroad. Catherine's struggle to produce an heir places her marriage and position in the court at risk, and she is haunted by her choices from the past.

screens, but for some reason Starz did not cancel it but is currently shooting eight more final episodes that will close the whole affair and finish it for good. And now they've added some new names for the final season and among them are some of our favourite Brits: Andrew Buchan (as upwardly mobile Sir Thomas More), Ray Stevenson (as Henry's boorish brother in law, King James IV of Scotland) alongside Sai Bennett (as Henry's sister Princess Mary now of age to forge a political alliance for the Tudors through her own marriage) and Peter Egan (as Tudor stalwart General Howard). Sadly, Charlotte Hope and Stephanie Levi John, who have shocked us with their atrocious efforts in acting and utter lack of charisma in the first part, return to their roles of Catherine of Aragon and her lady in waiting, with bland Ruairi O’Connor as king Henry VIII.

  The Second Part

PREMIUM SPOTLIGHT ON STARZ' TUDOR SAGA THE SPANISH PRINCESS WITH BRAND NEW ULTRA LAVISH CHARACTER PHOTOS AND TRAILER!

WILL ROYAL UP YOUR SPRING!

The Spanish Princess starts May 5th

I cant say I'm exactly thrilled with how they're trying to forcefully stuff feminism and diversity down our throats with this one, especially as I think it is the part of their marketing with those ideas currently being so trendy, and I don't think historical shows need such treatment. Notice how the most famous names in the cast, Elliot Cowan and Olly Rix, are missing from the photo shoot, probably just because they're men. But I do believe THE SPANISH PRINCESS epic series will be the highlight of period set productions this year as it comes from the team which created visually most beautiful epic saga ever White Princess. Today you can enjoy the stunningly gorgeous character photos for the eight part series which hits Starz May 5th! Our verdict after watching
