The Pope has his Popemobile. The Pope’s Exorcist has his ExorcistMobile. Strutting around the streets of Italy in a scooter, Father Gabriele Amorth (Russell Crowe) dedicates his life to the Vatican and the exorcism of demons. His boss, the Pope (Franco Nero), tells him of a demon, unlike anything they’ve ever heard of in a Spanish abbey which has possessed a
Read MoreRobert Renfield is a timid little man in an abusive relationship. He serves his master Dracula by acting as his caretaker.

Read MoreIf there’s one show that people can’t seem to stop talking about recently it’s The Last of Us. HBO build another hit, which audiences can’t get enough of. That includes us here at The Cosmic Circus, so of course we had to jump on Zoom for The Last of Us discussion podcast, capping the end of an excellent season. Join host
Read MoreThe time has come to say bid farewell to the first season of one of the best video game adaptations in recent years. The Last of Us broke many records in terms of audience score and fan acquisition. Episode 8 gained more than 8 million viewers, a big jump from the record 4.7 million during episode 1.

Read MoreWe learned more of Ellie’s (Bella Ramsey) story in The Last of Us episode 8. This was the second episode focusing mainly on the past, the other being “Long, Long Time”. It’s certainly a great way to enrich the story by including more of what is known from the game. Adding these greater explorations into side stories infuses a deeper and
Read MoreAMC has gone all in on the works of Anne Rice with the development of the Immortal Universe.
