Vivica A. Fox’s “The Wrong Valentine” premieres Thursday, marking the star and producer’s 25th film in Lifetime’s “The Wrong” franchise. And 25 installments into her made-for-tv series, Fox says there is only one thing she could possibly do in a “Wrong” film that wouldn’t be right.
“I get to cast myself in characters that normally Hollywood wouldn’t even give me an opportunity to play,” Fox, who has produced all 25 “Wrong” films and has starred in 22 of them, told TheWrap. “I’ve played a detective, a principal, a mom. The only thing David DeCoteau, the director, won’t let me play is the villain, because I’ve always got to deliver that catchy phrase. ‘Well it looks like you’ve got the wrong cheerleader’ or ‘You’ve got the wrong Valentine’ or ‘You’ve got the wrong Mr. Right.’ And people are like, ‘I can’t wait...

Sarah Uphoff, better known as Pantera Sarah due to her love of heavy metal music (Pantera is a heavy metal band), ran the show when it came to Los Angeles’ club scene in the early 2000s.
Before the days of smartphones and social media, the club promoter captured candid moments of her celebrity friends like Leonardo DiCaprio, Scarlett Johansson, Jason Mamoa and Justin Timberlake enjoying fun, uninhibited evenings at the nightlife spots she worked with.

If you have your finger on the pulse of internet memes and viral videos, you probably remember one from a few months ago in which a couple of Boston guys came across a sunfish while they were out on the water. The man filming it, Michael Bergin, cursed like a sailor (appropriately enough) and narrated the entire thing, and if you haven't seen it, at least the first few minutes are essential viewing to prepare you for what's to come. So take a look at the original (Nsfw) video right here, and then meet me below for the rest:
Pretty ridiculous, right? Not as ridiculous as this new video by Tom Hyndman, who mashed up that video with the trailer for Ron Howard's new whale hunting film In the Heart of the Sea (which opens in theaters this Friday). This is pretty damn funny, and even though it's not...

"We're seeing some s--t we ain't nevah seen before, kid!" Is it a sea monstah, a floundah, maybe a tunah? We don't know! Stupefied fisher and man with a wicked-cool accent Michael Bergin has shared a video to Facebook from the great city of Boston where he and friend Jason Foster (a.k.a. "Jay") find something in the water that blows their f--king minds. What follows is 5-minutes of Mike losing his cool over a "dying" sea creature which he debates eating or rescuing. Did we mention this video's Nsfw? Cameraman Mike drops a lot of questionable language, but to be fair, you would too if you encountered a "monstrous f--king thing" like this,...

New York -- Several classic horror tales are getting a gay makeover courtesy of Regent Studios, its sister cable channel Here! Networks and cult director David DeCoteau.
The helmer has inked a two-year deal with Regent to direct 10 films and two television series through his Rapid Heart Pictures shingle.
The projects, some of which will be released theatrically by Regent in the fall, include Edgar Allan Poe's "The Pit and the Pendulum" and adaptations of works by H.G. Wells and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. New features will also be made for "The Brotherhood" and "The Invisible Chronicles," two ongoing TV/DVD series.
All of the legendary tales in the slate will be refashioned to include gay themes, as was DeCoteau's recently released Poe adaptation "House of Usher." The only film confirmed for release this Fall is the "pansexual" film noir "Playing With Fire," starring Susan Anton and Michael Bergin.
DeCoteau has produced and/or directed more than 50 genre films over the past two decades, including "Leeches!" "Creepozoids" and "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-o-Rama," after his start in the mid-'80s gay porn industry.
