COMET TV Jan GIVEAWAY: The Craft Exclusive Swag Pack! Edgar Allan Poe Double Features! And More

We are the weirdos, mister.
Nancy, The Craft

January is here and with the start of any new year it’s the perfect time to come up with resolutions and things to accomplish in 2018. Or you can just cast a spell… That’s what the teen witches of The Craft did and look what happened to them! Oh… Wait a minute…

This month COMET TV has not just The Craft but amazing films like Labyrinth, Bubba Ho-Tep (Um… the awesomeness of Bruce Campbell?I say yes!) and more!

There are also Edgar Allan Poe double features all month with tantalizing and terrifying tales from one of the grand masters of horror. As The Raven says, “Nevermore!”

FILMS ON COMET IN JANUARY

The Craft (1996)
Teen movies might want you to believe that high school was all about keggers and beautiful cheerleaders, but we prefer The Craft’s version of events. Featuring a quartet of angsty teens who turn to witchcraft in the face of personal high school horrors, The Craft casts a spell that leaves you wishing you had an occult stor on your local main street.

Labyrinth (1986) 

January will mark the second anniversary of the day we lost pop culture legend David Bowie, so this month’s COMET is honoring his memory in the best way we coul think of .... by screening one of the most iconic roles of his career. Back in 1986, Bowie stole the show as the Goblin King in Jim Henson’s Labyrinth, from the music to the costumes, this was Bowie at his best.

It's been confirmed that Fear the Walking Dead will take place during the early stages of the zombie apocalypse - that period its parent series missed, with Rick in his coma - and is set in Los Angeles, over 2,000 miles from Atlanta where The Walking Dead is set.

But while Fear will initially serve as a prequel - dealing with the "anxiety and anticipation" of an outbreak, rather than going "full-zombie" - The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman has confirmed that the two series' timelines will align at some point.

Wipeout-ABC
Wipeout looks to be returning for eighth season this coming summer. After the Summer 2014 run of lower rated episodes, producers appear to be overhauling the format for 2015. ABC is now casting for an updated version, called Wipeout Extreme.
