If nothing else, Onslaught stands as proof that director Adam Wingard, making his way back to lean, mean originals after a decade in the IP mines, hasn’t lost his touch for the sort of deliciously vivid details that suggest motherlodes of stories unto themselves. In the first few minutes alone, we get grinning jack-o’-lanterns lined up in a dusty canyon, exploding one by one in target practice. A knife slicing through gnarled, unpeeled carrots that look like nothing so much as human fingers. An ancient Nazi scientist (Dan Stevens) crawling across a carpet to lick a woman’s stilettoed foot. Onslaught…

With just days to go until the Creative Arts Emmys, the race for Best Comedy Guest Actress is as tight as its been this entire season. Hacks’ Kaitlin Olson, the frontrunner in the Gold Derby odds since nominations were unveiled in July, has seen her once-commanding lead dwindle as Widow’s Bay’s Betty Gilpin surges. Olson started out with a comfortable margin, drawing strong support from both Gold Derby users and experts for her hilarious, scene-stealing role as Deborah Vance (Jean Smart)’s daughter, DJ, in the fifth and final season of HBO’s Hacks. While Olson still holds a solid lead among…

When you imagine “The Twilight Zone,” it’s hard not to immediately think of its creator and narrator, Rod Serling. His dapper suit, occasional cigarette, and distinct deadpan voice made it one of the best CBS shows of all time. Serling’s voice is synonymous with the series, yet he wasn’t the studio’s first choice. In fact, they had several other options before finally allowing Serling to narrate his own show. Throughout the early days of television, Serling had…
