Two from Stockton, California charged in Point Pleasant home invasion burglary
A man and woman from Stockton, California, were each charged with home invasion burglary Friday in an armed break-in that occurred at a home in Point Pleasant while a resident was inside, authorities said. Arrested Thursday night were Jaheim Wilson, 23, and Oleyah Brown, 21, Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer said in a statement. Wilson was also charged with two weapons offenses in connection with the burglary. Police in Point Pleasant were called to a Barton Avenue home shortly after 1:30 p.m. Thursday on the report of home invasion with a shot being fired. The officers found the rear door had been forced open and the home had been burglarized. Ocean County and Point Pleasant detectives discovered that an armed man and a woman kicked the home's door in and took the resident's possessions while the occupant was inside. The armed man fired a single shot and the two fled, Billhimer said. The investigation led to Wilson and Brown as the people responsible, Billhimer said. At 11 p.m. that day, detectives from the prosecutor's office found Wilson and Brown in Toms River. After they were charged, they were taken to Ocean County Jail where they both await detention hearings. Lawyer information for the two was not immediately available.

‘Fantastic Four: First Steps' Reveals Galactus' Big Goal
Noah Hawley teases a plethora of new creatures coming to Alien: Earth. Mark Frost weighs in on the potential future of Twin Peaks after David Lynch's passing. Plus, Jennifer Love Hewitt wants you to stick around after the credits for I Know What You Did Last Summer. Spoilers now!Deadline reports Madeleine McGraw (The Black Phone, The Black Phone 2) is attached to star in SuperUnknown, 'a supernatural coming-of-age thriller' from directors Chris and Nick Riedell. The story is said to follow 'a high schooler who discovers his parents have been harboring a supernatural creature. Subsequently, he and his bandmates must face off with the creature as it escapes and terrorizes their suburban town.' Variety also reports Jeffrey Combs will star in Mystery of the Mothman, a feature from debut filmmaker Austin Birtch exploring 'the legend of the Mothman, tied to a wave of late-1960s sightings in Point Pleasant, West Virginia of a human-sized, birdlike creature with glowing red eyes.' During a recent interview with SFX Magazine (via Bloody-Disgusting), Zach Cregger stated his upcoming Resident Evil movie may not be 'completely obedient to the lore of the games.' I am a gigantic Resident Evil game fan. I've played them all. I don't know how many times I've just looped [RE4] again and again. I just love it. I'm definitely not trying to be completely obedient to the lore of the games. I'm trying to tell a story that just feels authentic to the experience you get when you play the games. I don't think I'm breaking any major rules, but I also recognize that no matter what I do, people are going to come for me online. So all I want to do is just make a really good movie and tell a story that's compelling. I know that I'm gonna be happy with the movie, and hopefully other people will, too. I will also say, I've never seen a movie like it. It doesn't jump around like Weapons and Barbarian, but it is still unto itself. Speaking of which, a new poster for Weapons courtesy of Fangoria teases a few of the film's most unusual implements of death. During a recent interview with Extra TV, Jennifer Love Hewitt teased that the new I Know What You Did Last Summer includes a can't-miss scene after the credits. I'm going to get killed for saying this, but don't miss the credits. Hang out until the credits end. It could be an awkward moment, it could be a death, or it could just be something really fun. But don't miss it. Johnny crushes on the Silver Surfer, while Galactus demands Franklin Richards in two new TV spots for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. In conversation with Empire (via Indiewire), Mark Frost stated he feels Twin Peaks is 'a closed circle' following the death of David Lynch, but adds it's 'still kind of too soon' to consider a fourth season. We had talked a little bit about where a fourth season might go, but with David having left us, it's hard to imagine doing anything beyond this. It certainly feels like it closed the circle. Initially, David and I were in two minds about how to end The Return. I felt that Cooper [Kyle McLachlan] going back and rescuing Laura, then having the mystery of her death disappear, might be an extraordinary way to bring us back to ground zero. But David said, 'He has to pay a price for what he's tried to do.' Sheryl Lee was incredible. This is the moment when the full horror comes back to this poor soul; it's the price Laura Palmer pays for Cooper's attempted good deed. That was the end of this story. I felt there were uncertainties about his health, so I didn't press him on it, but nothing really stopped the flow of his creativity. [It's] still kind of too soon' [to say whether or not Twin Peaks is done for good] 'but it's something I'll get around to thinking about long and hard. Speaking with SFX Magazine (via Bloody-Disgusting), Noah Hawley revealed Alien: Earth will introduce five new species to the franchise in an attempt to replicate the mystery of unraveling the Xenomorphs' lifecycle in the original. These are five unique species that have been collected on this Maginot ship, which I saw as like the HMS Beagle, Charles Darwin going around collecting his specimens from around the universe. The reason that I did that is because I think if I have a skill at reinventing these classic films for television, it's in understanding what the original movie made me feel and why, and then recreating those feelings for you. On some level, the most critical feeling that you get from seeing Alien for the first time is the one that's impossible to recreate, which is discovery of the life cycle of this creature. Every time you think that you know what this monster is, it changes into something worse. You can't ever get back with those creatures. But if I bring in new creatures, you don't know how they reproduce, what they eat, how they're parasites. My hope is that we'll reawaken those feelings in the viewer when they watch the show from week to week. Finally, Spoiler TV has photos from 'Bloodlines,' this week's episode of Revival.
