Trailer For REALM OF SATAN a Very Borning Documentary About Modern Satanism — GeekTyrant
Monument Releasing has released the trailer for Realm of Satan , Scott Cummings' documentary that dives deep into the world of Satanism, and it's not what you'd expect. The film premiered at Sundance earlier this year and I watched it, but it was a very borning and completely uninteresting film. There's definitly nothing exciting about modern satanism. Not like the wild tales we;'ve heard from the 70s and 80s! The documentary takes viewers inside the controversial Realm of Satan church, offering a close look at Satanists' daily lives as well as their rituals and beliefs. According to the official description, the film 'captures Satanists in both the everyday and the extraordinary, revealing their mystical world of magic, mystery, and misanthropy.' Cummings approaches the subject with an artistic len: 'Cummings crafts each frame like a painting to allow the wild, elegant, and dynamic world of Satanists to unfold on screen.' The project features figures like Peter Gilmore, Blanche Barton, and Peggy Nadramia, key names associated with the Church of Satan. It's produced by Pacho Velez ( Searchers, The American Sector ), Caitlin Mae Burke ( We Could Be King ), and Molly Gandour ( GasLand ). Cummings expressed excitement about the theatrical rollout: 'I'm thrilled to be working with Monument on the theatrical release of Realm of Satan. The movie theater is a magical space, and this film demands that singular experience. 'Monument has stood behind and celebrated the uniqueness of this film and I am thrilled to bring audiences into our spell together. I have been a Mubi subscriber and cheerleader since their earliest day and found some of my favorite modern films through their impeccable curatorial vision. I couldn't think of a better and more exciting partner to work with.' The movie will make its U.S. theatrical debut on July 17th in Philadelphia, followed by runs at New York's Nitehawk (Prospect Park) and Metrograph. After its limited release, it hits digital platforms on September 2 and later lands exclusively on MUBI starting October 3 for U.S. and Canadian subscribers.

WWE star says she suffered breast implant-related injury in ring: 'It has moved'
Professional wrestling may have predetermined outcomes, but the risk of injury is real. But this past Monday, longtime star Nikki Bella, whose real name is Stephanie Garcia-Colace, suffered an injury that might have been previously unheard of. In an injury report, it would be labeled as a chest injury, but Bella and her twin sister, Brie Bella (Brianna Danielson), revealed what the injury really was. Nikki's breast implant wound up getting dislocated in an eight-person match on "Monday Night Raw" earlier this week. "Your implant OK? I think it's stuck in your ribs," Brie asked her sister. "I think it is. I had to go to the doctor yesterday to get my t-t looked at," Nikki replied. "I just was telling Brie, like, having conversations with my shirt off, and I'm thinking in my head, like, 'I didn't think I'd be here today, on my day off in New York City, getting my boobs looked at.'" Nikki then revealed that "It has moved." Nikki had been in and out of the ring for years due to neck injuries and a cyst in her brain, but she made a surprise return at this year's Women's Royal Rumble in February. She was previously engaged to John Cena, who proposed to the WWE Hall of Famer during WrestleMania 33 after the couple won a mixed tag team match against The Miz and his wife, Maryse. They were engaged for nearly a year before calling off their wedding less than one month before the date. Nikki was married before getting engaged to Cena, and married Artem Chigvinstev, her "Dancing With The Stars" partner, in 2022. But the dancer was arrested in 2024 on a felony domestic violence charge, and two weeks later Nikki filed for divorce.
