‘South Park' Highlights Brutal Unaired Scene Attacking Kristi Noem: ‘Didn't See This On TV?'
The long-running animated series first targeted Noem in last week's episode, 'Got a Nut,' which depicted her as a crazed, dog-killing leader of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids — whose heavily touched-up face simply won't stop melting.

The show doubled down after Noem publicly decried the portrayal as 'lazy,' and turned her liquefied visage into the profile photo of its social media accounts. 'South Park' went even further, however, in an alternate end-credits scene that didn't make the television broadcast.
'Didn't see this on TV? Here's the Paramount+ version of the end credits scene,' the official 'South Park' account wrote Monday on X, formerly Twitter.

The end-credits scene shown during last week's broadcast saw Noem and her band of ICE agents singing 'Hark! The Herald Angels Sing' after a bloody raid on President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort. The alternate version arguably skewers her even further.
The scene shows Noem, who infamously admitted in her 2024 memoir 'No Going Back' to killing her family dog because of its 'aggressive personality,' waltzing into a pet store fully armed — and unloading round after round into the canines in the building.
When one puppy tries to escape, Noem hobbles after it — and shoots it in the face.
Noem has yet to respond to the newly highlighted scene, but seemed to detest her overall portrayal on the show. The Trump official told conservative pundit Glenn Beck last week that she hadn't seen the episode, but apparently heard about its unflattering portrayal of her looks.
'It's so lazy to constantly make fun of women for how they look,' Noem said on his podcast. 'Only the liberals and the extremists do that. If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that, but clearly they can't. They just pick something petty like that.'
Unlike the liberals and extremists she referenced, Noem has overseen the massively unpopular and potentially unconstitutional immigration raids launched by ICE at the direction of Trump earlier this year. In July, she even claimed these efforts have protected Americans from cannibals.
'South Park' returns Wednesday for the third episode of its ongoing 27th season.

Red-Band Trailer For The Blood-Soaked Horror Romance Film STRAIGHT ON TILL MORNING and Interview with Director Craig Ouellette — GeekTyrant
Here's the trailer for a great indie surival horror thriller titled Straight on Till Morning . This is 'a romantic horror feature with lesbian leads about the beautiful and terrible things people do in the name of love.' The director of the film, Craig Ouellette, explained: 'Every character in the movie is motivated by love. But of course what some people love might not be what other people love, and there is the conflict.' I watched this movie at the FilmQuest Film Festival and it delivers a unique blend of horror and romance, following two women, Dani and Kaitlin, who meet by chance in a roadside diner and impulsively decide to road-trip together to Los Angeles. Both women are at turning points in their lives with Dani, trying to escape the ghosts of her past, and Kaitlin, chasing a hopeful future. But soon, their path takes a sinister detour, plunging them into a nightmare that will test the limits of their love and resilience. The movie evolves into a 'house of horrors' scenario when Dani and Kaitlin cross paths with a seemingly pious couple who harbor far darker intentions. Kidnapped and locked away in the family's eerie home, they are forced into a brutal fight for survival against their unhinged captors. I really liked the movie! As I said in my review, 'This film doesn't shy away from showing the harrowing lengths people will go to survive, nor does it compromise on its message: the fight for love and identity is worth every ounce of blood, sweat, and tears. Straight On to Morning is a thrill ride of romance and terror.' I also included an interview with the filmmaker below: What was the inspiration for your film? How did you come up with the idea? 'Neal McLaughlin, the co-writer, had the idea to do a romantic horror movie, ala True Romance meets Hostel. That's where it began and it's been a long journey to create and balance the tones of romance and horror into something that audiences at festivals seem to really enjoy.' Tell us about yourself. What is your background? How long have you been a filmmaker? 'I've been a storyteller since 1st grade when I wrote my first story 'The Adventures of Legoland'. It's brilliant! As for movies, it was in High School in Dallas, TX that I realized the magic of editing and the moment when two shots get put together that create an entirely new world. From that point on I was hooked!' What inspires you to work within genre cinema and tell these kind of stories? 'I love suspense. And I love that horror (and sci-fi, fantasy etc) allow us to dive into stories head on. We don't have to sugarcoat things and we can use our imaginations to tell outlandish stories that are grounded in real world issues and challenges. If you do a straight forward drama you often have to dance around what you are really trying to say, And in Horror you can put it front in center in all it's ugliness and beauty.' What was your favorite part of the filmmaking process for this project? 'Oh man! So many parts I love. Writing, Editing, Working with the actors and crew to create a world that otherwise does not exist.' What are you most proud of with this film? 'The audience reactions at packed festival screenings have been AMAZING. To hear an audience gasp, cheer, scream, cringe and be on the ride that we set out to make really means so much. I'm proud we were able to create something that is really connecting to people on an emotional and visceral level.' What is a favorite story or moment from the making of the film you'd like to share? 'So many people gave of their time and effort to create this. I'm forever grateful to all of them.' What was your most challenging moment or experience you had while making your film? 'The whole things was hard as hell. Making independent movies is one of the most difficult things to do it seems. I knew it would be harder than my many short films, but it was SO MUCH HARDER. Gathering money, resources, making things look good with little.' If it did, how did your film change or differ from its original concept during pre-production, production, and/or post-production? How has this changed how you'll approach future projects as a result? 'From the original concept to now, the biggest change is that it became a Queer film. A few years into the 15 1/2 year journey to make it, Neal and I realized how much stronger the film would be if it were a Queer story. It just opened up so many layers of subtext and became something more interesting on a lot of levels. It also makes a much stronger statement too. And then there are the hundreds of ways things change because of time, blocking, actor intentions, limitations, creativity and more. But that's all part of the creative journey of filmmaking that I love.' Who were some of your collaborators and actors on the film? How did you start working with each other? 'Bonnie Jean Tyer, who plays Kaitlin Sanbourne, one of the two leads and is a producer, wardrobe and more on the film is an amazing woman with so much passion and so many skills I'm constantly impressed. We met at a team building day job, and over the years began to work together on her western series, and then this. The is a powerful queer filmmaker and amazing actress who is going to go far. 'Kelsey Christian, who plays Dani Dupree, the other lead, is a fabulous actress and singer from Nashville. We met via audition and she was so purely the character AND she's a great singer (which is important for the film). I'm grateful she stuck through all the ups and downs of the project and has always been a supporter of the film. 'She brought her heart and soul to the project. In truth, all the actors, Bill Hengstenberg, Michael Gmur, Maria Olsen and Travis Lincoln Cox, as well as all the supporting actors were incredible. I love working with actors and am awesome in awe of the amazing ways they can create emotion and connection. 'Behind the lens we had an amazing set of producers and crew members who really gave so much for this film. As I mentioned before I'm grateful to all of them.' What is the best advice you've ever received as a filmmaker and what would you like to say to new filmmakers? 'Take business classes. It's something I wish I did, but I didn't so now I have to figure out all this business stuff along the way. Each movie you make (if it's for profit) is a small business (or a big one) and having that basic understanding is helpful. Make movies (and live life) with passion, without being precious. Being precious is a limiting agreement. Nothing will EVER be perfect. It is impossible. But we can strive for greatness and connection. Exercise regularly and eat well because making movies is so hard.' What are your plans for your career and what do you hope this film does for it? What kind of stories would you like to tell moving forward? 'I'm ready to be making movies, both smaller indie films and large studio pictures. I love the idea of jumping back and forth between scales of projects because each of them has their plusses and minuses and provide ways to creatively tell stories.' What is your next project and when can we expect to see it? 'I have two feature scripts ready to go that we are in the fundraising stage for. So one of those two, or if someone had a script and a plan I'd be interested in exploring other opportunities as well.' Where can we find more of your work and where can interested parties contact you? Do you have a website or YouTube/Vimeo channel? Social media handles? 'My website is Craigofilm is also my youtube channel, instagram and facebook too. The movie's website is and @straightontillmorningmovie on the IG.' Bonus Question #1: What is your all-time favorite film? 'I love love so many movies. But if I have to choose one it is ALIENS'

Trump's DHS touts massive number of illegal immigrants deported as Dems lash out at ICE
The Department of Homeland Security is touting new data showing that the nation's illegal immigrant population has plummeted by 1.6 million people since January. The statistics, from the Center for Immigration Studies, indicate that self-deportations are driving the trend. The federal government has provided financial incentives for illegal immigrants to leave and has run advertisements telling them they can only apply to return if they leave voluntarily. "In less than 200 days, 1.6 MILLION illegal immigrants have left the United States population," DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement on Thursday. "This is massive. This means safer streets, taxpayer savings, pressure off of schools and hospital services and better job opportunities for Americans. Thank you, President Trump!" The agency says over 1 million people have opted for self-deportation through the CBP Home app. DHS began offering $1,000 and free travel out of the United States to those seeking to leave the country on their own and who do not have a criminal background outside of their immigration status. Meanwhile, Washington, D.C., is becoming an example from the Trump administration to sanctuary cities around the country, as Attorney General Pam Bondi ordered that officers cooperate with federal immigration authorities and put Drug Enforcement Administration Administrator Terry Cole in an oversight role of the police force. "I sent out 33 letters to mayors around this country. I think three or four of them were in California alone. Not surprising. I sent out letters to all of these mayors and to the governors saying, "You must comply.' we want to know what you're doing to comply with our federal government," Bondi said on "Hannity" on Thursday night. Tensions are high between Democratic leadership and federal law enforcement in sanctuary cities, as there were immigration authorities outside Gov. Gavin Newsom's rally in Los Angeles on Thursday, and at least one arrest was made by U.S. Border Patrol. "WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY WEAK LITTLE DONALD TRUMP, THE CRIMINAL PRESIDENT!" Newsom's office told Fox News Digital in an email. Some New York City leaders are also making critical comparisons to rebuke the Trump administration's immigration policies. "When I look at the visuals of ICE agents masked on the street, taking people from their homes, taking people who are rightfully showing up for court. It reminds me of something that some of my ancestors had to go through, which is the KKK," New York City Council Member Nantasha Williams said this week. Many Democrats have likened ICE agents to Nazis since Trump took office. "I'm gonna start with the flashing red light — Donald Trump's modern-day Gestapo is scooping folks up off the streets," former vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said in May. "They're in unmarked vans, wearing masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons. No chance to mount a defense. Not even a chance to kiss a loved one goodbye. Just grabbed up by masked agents, shoved into those vans, and disappeared." "I don't know of any police department that routinely wears masks. We know that there are other groups that routinely wear masks. NSC-131 routinely wears masks," Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said in June, referencing a neo-Nazi group. DHS says that ICE agents are facing a 1,000% increase in assaults since last year. "We will not and have not let this violence stop us or slow us down. Everyday our law enforcement continues to enforce the law and arrest the most depraved criminals including pedophiles, terrorists, murderers, gang members, and sexual predators," Noem stated earlier this month as ICE seeks to hire thousands of more agents. President Trump is touting the immigration crackdown, as the administration says the efforts to remove illegal immigrants from the country will lead to less of a strain on public resources. "We want to stop crime. I think if the Democrats aren't strong on this issue, they won't be able to do it. I think this is a bigger issue than all of the other ridiculous things that like open borders," he said Thursday.
