LOKI (SEASON 2) / October 6, 2023 (Disney+™)

“The second season of the television series Loki, based on Marvel Comics™ featuring the character of the same name, sees Loki working with Mobius M. Mobius, Hunter B-15, and other members of the Time Variance Authority (TVA) to navigate the multiverse in order to find Sylvie, Ravonna Renslayer, and Miss Minutes.”

As cool as Loki is (more so than his surfer model brother, Thor), Miss Minutes is the breakout star. And she’s a cartoon!

SOUL MATES / October 20, 2023 (Limited Theaters)

“Jason and Allison — two unsuspecting strangers — find themselves participants in a twisted new dating service, led by the Matchmaker, who forces the two singles inside a nightmarish maze designed to help them find their soul mate — or die trying.

Date, mate, lacerate.

BLACK NOISE / November 3, 2023 (VOD)

“An elite team of security contractors are hired to rescue a VIP from an isolated island estate, only to arrive and find a mostly empty island, save for opposing masked gunmen and a mysterious siren sound that drives them all to the brink of insanity.”

And that mysterious siren sound is EDM. That annoying repetitive crap will drive anyone normal to the brink of insanity.

He’s on a mission to craft his own macabre family by using the body parts of his unfortunate victims, forcing a mother and her son to confront their deepest and darkest fears.”

I hope Trash Man isn’t a…waste…of time Heh.
