There’s nothing scarier than childhood. Look no further than the movies (or your very own memory palace) for proof. With the upcoming release of Abigail and the recent child-adjacent scares from The First Omen and Imaginary,...

The episode of Best Horror Movie You Never Saw covering The Good Son was Written and Narrated by Kier Gomes, Edited by Paul Bookstaber, Produced by John Fallon and Tyler Nichols, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.

There is nothing like a proverbial bond between one’s own offspring. The joys are finding your inner self within them. The feeling of self-fulfillment, reproducing your very own mini-me. The realization that you have much more purpose in this world than just being a cog in corporate America riding that 9-5 grind. Ah yes, the moments you share with your own child far outweigh the trials and tribulations of dealing with the everyday stress of adulthood. But what if that child has an embedded evil inside of them? What if their own volition comes with malice and harm? Would you cope with still accepting them as they were? Would you sleep with one eye open,...

Despite still being one of the most recognizable child stars of all time, Macaulay Culkin prefers to stay out of the spotlight these days. In a rare interview, Culkin opened up about his childhood acting in hit movies and how stories about him “divorcing” his parents were blown way out of proportion.

Macaulay Culkin became one of the world’s biggest child stars

Culkin began acting when he was just 4 years old, appearing onstage and in small parts in TV shows and movies. His big break came with 1989’s Uncle Buck, but it wasn’t until the following year, with the release of Home Alone, that Culkin became a household name. His role earned him a Golden Globe nomination and an American Comedy Award.

From there, Culkin starred in a series of movies, including My Girl, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, The Good Son, and Richie Rich. However,...

Kieran Culkin is opening up about growing up with his massive and famous family in New York City. Kieran, who stars as Roman Roy on "Succession," is one of seven kids shared by Kit Culkin and Patricia Brentrup. The pair never married, though their split in the 1990s and ensuing custody battle became tabloid fodder because Kieran's brother Macaulay had become very famous after starring in 1990's "Home Alone" franchise. Kieran revealed in an interview with Esquire published March 27 that his dad - an actor himself - had all seven try to be actors, though only Macaulay (who his siblings call Mack), Kieran, and Rory pursued it seriously.

The family grew up in the Yorkville section of Manhattan, and Kieran says that even though he was just a kid himself, he felt bad for the way fame affected Macaulay's life. "Poor f*cking guy," he told Esquire of his brother.

Excellent performers can shine and be recognized in many mediums. This is proven again by the fact that twenty-three of this year’s Emmy nominees have received Tony Award nominations in the past and nine of those nominated actors have won Tony Awards.

“Succession” is the series most predicted to win the Outstanding Drama Emmy again this year. Four of the Emmy nominees for their guest roles in “Succession” were also Tony Award nominees in the past: Dame Harriet Walter, Sanaa Latham, Arian Moayad, and Hope Davis.

Dame Harriet’s 2009 Tony nomination was for Best Actress in the play “Mary Stuart,” playing Queen Elizabeth I of England. Sanaa’s Best Featured Actress Tony nomination was in 2004 for a revival of “A Raisin in The Sun,” starring Sean Combs. Arian’s Tony nomination was in 2011 for “Benghal Tiger at The Baghdad Zoo,” starring Robin Williams, and Hope Davis was up in 2009 for “God of Carnage,...

The Culkin kids didn't want to be famous. But before any of the seven children among the brood whose last name would come to be synonymous with that of the child actor could decide what they did want, they found themselves thrust into the spotlight as a Hollywood dynasty in the making whether they liked it or not. Born to father Kit Culkin, brother to actress Bonnie Bedelia and once an aspiring actor himself, and mother Patricia Brentrup, Shane, Dakota, Macaulay, Kieran, Quinn, Christian, and Rory were born into a family of modest means. For the first nine years of middle child Kieran's life, the entire family resided in a railroad apartment in a tenement building on East 94th Street and Second Avenue in...
