Jesse McCartney is a name that pop music lovers from the ’00s will never forget.
Many fans met him as a member of the boyband Dream Street, but he found breakout success as a solo artist. Jesse‘s discography features hits such as “Leavin’,” “Body Language,” and “Just So You Know,” and as a songwriter he helped pen Leona Lewis‘s enduring smash “Bleeding Love.”
That was just the start for him, though, and he’s continued to grow and explore new projects over the years.
On Friday (April 5), he dropped a new EP titled All’s Well. The five-song collection features a cheeky collab with Yung Gravy called “Make a Baby.” As the title implies, it’s all about the excitement and challenges of family planning, something that he and wife Katie Peterson are currently familiar with.
Next up, he embarks on the All’s Well Tour in a week.

Lisa Gray, a budding art restorer who travels to the small Italian village of Sambuci just outside Rome to bring a medieval painting back to its former glory for a wealthy and titled client. Little does she know she is placing her life in danger from an evil curse and a monster born of myth and brutal pain.
I have been a fan of Federico Zampaglione’s genre work since I saw his film Shadow in 2009. Then came the original cut of Tulpa back at Frighfest 2012. It’s safe to say I was one of the Only people who reviewed that screening and that cut positively (and then went on to review the recut just as glowingly) and saw what Zampaglione was trying to achieve.

So, Federico, The Well has its UK premiere at the Glasgow Film Festival, as part of the popular FrightFest event. Are you excited?

Wanting to get back on the horror horse! I deeply love this genre, because it speaks to the human soul, investigates our unknown fears and gets lost in deep darkness whilst clinging to a blade of light. The Well pushes at the most extreme emotions,...

Federico Zampaglione’s new horror film The Well will have its world premiere at Sitges this Friday, October 6th. It will have its North American premiere at LA Screamfest the following week, on Tursdya, October 12th. The poster for the flick was unvealed today. It features actress and model Melanie Gaydos standing behind a well that is overflowing with blood. A bold choice, as lead actress Lauren Lavera is still riding the wave of success from Terrifier 2 and that would usually be what a production would want to put front and center in their marketing. Hopefully there will be more about The Well in the coming days as the premieres roll out. Poster art for Federico Zampaglione’s new horror film The Well...
