The Six-ening Theory Of 'American Horror Story: Roanoke'
If the past five seasons of Ryan Murphy's horror anthology have taught us anything, it is that nothing happens by coincidence. American Horror Story: Roanoke will reportedly tie into all that has come before it more than ever. It is easy to spot the similarities of pig men and witches; but, does the number six have a lot more to do with the sixth season of the show than we first thought? Get ready, things are about to get "six-ening."

Porky Pies: Is Evan Peters Piggy Man On 'American Horror Story: Roanoke'?
Four weeks, that's 40,320; that's how many Evan Peters-less minutes we have had to endure since American Horror Story: Roanoke first graced our screens. Like a game of Where's Waldo, everyone is asking, "Where's Evan?". What if the Horror Story veteran has been hiding in plain sight all along? We know that Peters isn't adverse to hiding his face for the show — featuring a Season 1's Rubber Man — and now the latest theory is that Mr. Peters is this season's meaty menace "Piggy Man."

"Wubba lubba dub-dub," where the Squanch is Rick & Morty Season 3? Well, it looks like we will have to wait just a little bit longer to see how the show picks up after the dramatic second season. Things looked pretty dire for the Smith family when we left them: returned to an alien-filled Earth, their savior Grandpa Rick was destined to spend his days rotting in a maximum-security Galactic Federation prison. With mother and father figures Beth and Jerry reportedly filing for divorce, it seems that things are going to get worse before they can get better for the Smiths. What consequences will the divorce have on rest of the family in the third season of Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's crazy cartoon comedy?

Time To See-'Saw': Is This The First Image Of 'Saw: Legacy'?
The Saw films became a bit of a Halloween tradition — trekking to the cinema to see which "helpless" members of the public would be dispatched in gruesome traps this time.

Bucky Up Your Ideas: Did Sebastian Stan Confirm He Is The New Captain America?
If you want to "shield" yourself from wild speculation, turn back now, because Sebastian Stan is once again waving Old Glory in front of our faces. We have varying rumors from "now" to "never" on when Chris Evans will shuffle out of the MCU, and even then, it is unlikely to be permanent. However, the hot tip to put on some star-spangled pantaloons when it eventually does happen is Stan's Bucky Barnes.

Robots In Disguise: How Does HBO's 'Westworld' Turn Its Actors Into Robots?
You might be wondering where you have seen the whole "robots in a theme park" story before — and no, it isn't The Simpsons episode "Itchy & Scratchy Land" — but that's because HBO's latest offering, Westworld, is a reimagining of the 1973 film of the same name.

7 Years Bad Luck - The 5 Darkest Moments From Black Mirror!
For those who have plunged into the dark depths of Charlie Brooker's mind for Black Mirror, you will know that the horror anthology is not for those seeking popcorn and pleasantries. Sicker than your average episode of American Horror Story, Black Mirror is a dystopian look at our modern lives, and whilst there may only currently be seven episodes, the twisted-techy-terror comes back to our screens for a full series of Netflix and 'kill'. Coming next month, the streaming giant has teamed up with Brooker to give us another thirteen episodes to haunt your nightmares. You can currently stream the six episodes (and Christmas special) online. But in the meantime, let's refresh on the show's darkest moments so far. I don't know about you, but I can't wait to see what misery is around the corner — sorry, I'm a little twisted like that!
