The Vanished: My Murdered Wife’s Body is Missing?
“The Vanished” is a Korean movie released in 2018, and categorized as Crime, Mystery, Thriller and Suspense, and is streaming on many platforms. This Korean drama is adapted from “The Body”, a 2012 Spanish Thriller/Mystery. ♦ Why is There No Body on the Slab in the Cooler? In “The Vanished”, detectives are called to a morgue because a security guard is babbling something about seeing a ghost, and the words coming out of his mouth are jumbled up, confused, and make no sense. Yet he insists he’s telling the truth about what happened. In morgues around the world, a dead body is often kept in a cooler (a refrigerated room), both before and after autopsies. The dead bodies are placed on a morgue slab, where they stay until the undertaker comes to pick them up OR they get transported somewhere else. The sliding slabs are kind of like drawers that you can open and close. You pull out the slab, view the body or remove the body, and/or slide the

Secrets of the Neanderthals , A Netflix Documentary
Neanderthals: More Than Just Extinct Cousins An upcoming Netflix documentary, “Secrets of the Neanderthals,” explores the lives of these fascinating extinct hominins. While not quite sentient like us Homo sapiens, Neanderthals were highly intelligent and our closest extinct relatives. Our DNA shares about 96-98% similarity with chimpanzees, but creating human-chimp hybrids is ethically and biologically impossible. Neanderthals were indeed impressive! They had their own culture, evident in cave art and likely a form of communication. Similar to us, they crafted tools for hunting and used animal skins for clothing. While not “races” like humans, Neanderthals likely had variations in skin tone, with evidence suggesting brunette, redhead, and blonde individuals were found. The documentary will likely delve into the many theories surrounding their disappearance around 40,000 years ago. Did they succumb to climate change, competition with our species, or a combination of factors? This Netflix Documentary will investigate our closest extinct ancestor. Secrets of the Neanderthals Trailer One of the biggest enigmas in human evolution is the disappearance of

Knuckles Miniseries Premieres on Paramount+
Later this year, Sonic The Hedgehog will return to theaters in his third movie, but before then, Knuckles the Echidna is branching off into his own career with a Paramount+ TV show. All six episodes became available today on the service. When we first saw the movie version of Knuckles, he had a character arc similar to his introduction in Sonic 3: manipulated by Robotnik into believing Sonic was after his Master Emerald, Knuckles and the ‘hog traded blows a few times until they realized it was actually Eggman who was trying to steal the jewel. They patched things up just in time to stop Eggy’s giant robot from trashing the planet. After all that was finished, you’d think Knuckles could take it easy, but a new threat has emerged, and it’s specifically targeting him. One of Robotnik’s assistants has hired two people, turned them into cyborgs and sent them after Knuckles to get his power. Meanwhile Wade Whipple is tired of being a joke and wants to train with

Max Beyond Launches On Digital
Hazimation, a small LA-based animation studio, has officially launched their biggest project, a fully animated CG movie called Max Beyond, on digital platforms. Max, a small boy, has been held captive in a research facility for years due to his ability to open rifts to other dimensions. Those who hold him prisoner want to exploit this power, but Max has a plan to escape…if he can just reach his older brother. Leon is planning to break in and bust him out, but Max doesn’t think this is a good idea — he can’t find an outcome where this doesn’t result in Leon’s death. Can Max and Leon save each other? That may require a different approach. “When Max discovers his captors are using his power against him, he realizes he must stop focusing on how the story ends and rewrite the story from the beginning,” reads the description. Where will their journey ultimately take them? Max Beyond was directed, co-written and co-produced by Hasraf ‘HaZ’ Dulull (Disney’s Fast Layne, indie

Tell Me More! “‘Dark Hole’ is about a petrochemical factory’s sinkhole that turns people into strange figures, and the people who aren’t infected try to survive.” (Description per Apple TV+) So! It’s not an alien invasion. It’s just humanity messing up humanity! No surprise it’s a petrochemical factory. Petrochemicals have been linked to birth defects, cancer, respiratory illnesses, heart failure, neurodevelopmental disorders, and climate destruction.

MILF Manor Season 2, Yes This brain rotter got a Season 2
“MILF Manor” Season 1 shattered our expectations for humanity’s future, showcasing eight cougars dating each other’s sons. These women, all divorced and in their 40s, are romantically involved with men in their 20s. Watching a 60-year-old woman, heavily botoxed and surgically enhanced, engaging in intimate acts with a 20-year-old twinks may seem like the epitome of trash TV, but unfortunately, it’s a ratings goldmine. While this show might sound like the plot of an adult film, it’s actually a Reality TV series airing on TLC, formerly known as The Learning Channel. Despite its controversial content, the success of the first season has secured a second season. It’s a departure from TLC’s educational roots. One memorable moment from the first season involves a son discovering that his mother had slept with his friends. Additionally, there’s a challenge where mothers attempt to identify their sons among a lineup of shirtless men by feeling their abs. Just imagine the potential for a spin-off titled “DILF Manor,” featuring elderly men dating each other’s daughters.(There

Microsoft Introduces X-Men 97 XBox Series X And Controllers
X-Men 97, currently running through its first season on Disney+, is a spectacular revival of one of the 90s’ most beloved cartoons. I suppose we can count the C-suite at Microsoft among their fans, as they’ve just revealed a special XBox Series X with a custom paint job in honor of the series. The special design is a series of comic panels depicting the X-Men battling the Sentinels and Master Mold that wraps around the console’s shell. It wasn’t ripped from a comic, it was written by Rich Douek and drawn by artist Paco Diaz specifically for this console. And that’s not all! Microsoft also went through the trouble of painting eleven XBox controllers in the colors of every X-Men member from the show. Wolverine, Storm, Rogue, Morph, Magneto, Jubilee, Gambit, Jean Grey, Cyclops, Beast and Bishop are all represented and come sealed in blister packages. Sounds great, so where can you buy them? ….Um, nowhere. This isn’t a product intended for sale. It’s a contest prize. To enter, you
