Events take a dark turn for a small town school teacher, played by “The Americans'” Keri Russell, in the first teaser trailer for horror movie “Antlers,” produced by Guillermo del Toro.
The footage, unveiled Tuesday, centers on a young boy (Jeremy T. Thomas) reading from a frightening short story he’s written as Russell listens. The trailer includes images of a cabin with blood-splattered floors, otherworldly creatures and Russell screaming inside her car.
“Once, there were three bears that lived in a dark, wet cave up above a small town,” Thomas says. “Every day, Little Bear went to school, and at night he would come home and eat dinner. But, one day, Little Bear came home and Big Bear and Baby Bear were different. Big Bear got sick, and his insides turned black. Big Bear has become more angrier and meaner, because they had no food, no meat.”

You can see from the look on Keri Russell’s face, the story she’s hearing from one of her students is no ordinary fairy tale.
In “Antlers,” an upcoming horror and fantasy film from director Scott Cooper and producer Guillermo Del Toro, Russell plays a teacher in a small town in Oregon who along with her brother (Jesse Plemons), the town’s sheriff, discovers that a young boy is harboring a dangerous secret with frightening consequences.
“Once, there were three bears that lived in a dark, unlit cave up above a small town. Every day, Little Bear went to school, and at night he would come home and eat dinner,” the boy played by Jeremy T.

MaryAnn’s quick take… Sure, millions of Native people dead and ancient cultures destroyed, but who has to live with that? All the good soldiers who were just following orders, that’s who. Won’t someone think of the white man? I’m “biast” (pro): nothing
I’m “biast” (con): nothing

You know what the real white man’s burden is? Living with the guilt of the colonialism, oppression, and genocide you are party to. I mean, look at North America.

Praise be: The unexpectedly delightful combination of Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg is back.
The hilarious duo is once again hitting the small screen for VH1’s Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party, and in honor of the upcoming season 2, they sat down with People Now for a round of Confess Sesh.
First up was the rapper’s weirdest food craving: peanut butter, pickles and potato chips on a sandwich. (For the record, Stewart, 76, thinks that sounds delicious.)
Up next, Stewart revealed what she would do if she were Beyoncé for the day.

Toys can often play an important role in a film, sometimes becoming the star. This is our list of the 20 most famous toys in film.
Toys and movies have a unique and long-running relationship. In the beginning, toys were just props in movies. Somewhere along the line, someone figured out that toys could be used to help sell movies, and vice versa. Merchandising began, and children everywhere could find either the toys featured in their favorite movies or toy versions of things from their favorite movies on the shelves of their local toy stores. Some toys also graduated from being props to being characters. First animation, then stop-motion, puppetry, and later CGI helped to bring them alive on screen. More recently, movie studios have begun making movies based on toys.
Throughout all of this, one thing has remained consistent: the important role that toys have played in film. However, there...

You can call him “Little Bear” or “Little Vinny NuNu,” and you can also call him lucky to be alive.
Last week, a woman named Fawn Schneider brought the cub to the Orphaned Wildlife Center in Otisville, New York. The cub had been hit by a car and narrowly survived, but his mother was killed. The little guy was unconscious and unresponsive at first, but has proven to be a fighter. After constant care and monitoring by the Center’s veterinary staff, the cub has pulled through the worst of his multiple head and leg injuries.

They say a dog is a man’s best friend, yet when Bryan Michael Stoller first began his career in the early 1970s hosting a Canadian children’s TV program called “Film Fun,” he never dreamed that 30 years later an irresistible little canine would be so connected to his career.
Teaching has always been important to the 50-year-old filmmaker, and if it had not been for his venture into directing, he says he surely would have would become an educator. “Film Fun” was a show in which a then-10-year-old Stoller, his sister Nancy and featured guests taught youngsters about the art of filmmaking with an emphasis on animation techniques. In 2003, he authored a title for the popular “Dummies” how-to series, “Filmmaking for Dummies,” and edited “Screenwriting for Dummies.”
However, it was his four-legged companion that revived his interest in filmmaking. Stoller...

With family films taking a bite out of the boxoffice, Bryan Michael Stoller hopes Little Bear, a 28-pound Queensland heeler, can follow in the paw prints of Marley, Marmaduke and the Beverly Hills Chihuahua.
Most movies starring a dog, like "Beethoven," use 10 or more look-alike animals. In Stoller's "First Dog," about a foster kid who returns the president's lost dog to the White House, Little Bear is the solo star. He did his own stunts and even barked for postproduction looping.
"I have a credit in the movie as his acting coach, not as a trainer," said Stoller, who directed, produced, wrote and edited the movie, which was made for less than $3 million and screens Tuesday night for the first time for distributors and backers.
