GUEST COLUMN: Scary Movies You Probably Haven't Seen Before

by Lewis Robinson

Since the silent era, Hollywood has been producing horror films, and moviegoers love seeing pictures that make them jump out of their seats.

GUEST COLUMN: Movie Stars Need Matchmakers

By Lewis Robinson

Donkey brays, “Celebrity marriages. They never last, do they?” It might have been a little ironic of Murphy to be asking that question. Even though he has only been married once, he has had children with five different women. If it seems to you that movie stars’ marriages do not endure, you are absolutely correct.
