8 Etsy Finds That Moms Really Want for Mother’s Day

Published

Moms have a pretty demanding job, working day in and day out to keep their spawn happy and healthy.  In return, we get one day off to be pampered and celebrated for all we do.

As a mother of three exhaustingly wonderful children, my Mother’s Day list is short. Sleeping in, coffee I don’t have to make myself, and hopefully no cooking or cleaning.

The following is a list of my all-time favorite “wish list” items off of Etsy, any of which would make me a super happy mom this Mother’s Day.

Hellraiser Cameo & Jewelry Box Set – Villaoscura

I must admit, I have coveted this item from afar for quite a while now. This seller has beautiful artwork that anyone would love. With options of characters such as Jason Voorhees, Pinhead, and the Grady Twins, everyone is sure to find a piece they will love. You can find one to call your own for $25.36 on Villaoscura.

Silent Hill Cartoon Leggings – Lanes Creations Shop

What mom wouldn’t want an adorable cartoon Pyramidhead printed all over her pants?

I can happily picture myself rocking these awesome leggings with my favorite t-shirt and some heels. Moms can still look and feel cool, and these pants – featuring all our favorite creatures from Silent Hill – would surely make that happen.

Be the mom all other moms envy for only $39.95 at Lanes Creations Shop.

Horror Collage Wall Canvas – Design T-shirts Direct

How fun it would be to hang this conversation piece up and discuss the characters and movies found within? I can imagine the thrill of opening this bad boy up on Mother’s Day morning, where I almost trip over myself as I rush to take down the photo of my children and replace it with this masterpiece. The kids will understand, really, they will.

Artwork has never felt so right. Pick this up for $21.04 at Design T-Shirts Direct

Magnetic Horror Bookmark – Crafty Babas

My love for all things horror came as much from reading books as it did from watching movies.

Picture grabbing your favorite scary novel, and as you turn the page, you glance up and see Freddy’s adorable little face looking down upon you as you read. It’s the best way I can think of to save my place for the next evening.

At the conveniently low price of $2.02 you can afford to buy mom all her favorite characters at Crafty Babas.

Jason Voorhees Coffee Table – We Play Our Way

This table fills me with a level of Squee that I usually reserve for only really tiny things or puppies.

This is the most expensive item on the list, but looks to be well worth the splurge. This crafter gifts us with an amazing image of our favorite campground killer looking badass and terrifying as only Jason can.  

There is nothing I would love more – after a hard day of “Mom-ing” – than to rest my tired feet right on that toasty fire and pretend I am camping at Crystal Lake.

Mom is definitely worth the $99.99 you’ll pay for this table at We Play Our Way.

Classic Horror Pin-Up Dress – Vintage Galeria

It is now time to pay homage to the classics with this vintage horror dress.  

This piece has been carefully crafted with amazing old school horror icons like Frankenstein and Dracula. Make mom feel a little 50’s glamor with this pin-up style number; she can enjoy this whimsical and lightweight dress during the warm summer months ahead.

Well worth the price of $59.95 at Vintage Galeria.

Polymer Clay Trick ‘r Treat – Jamie Swimm Designs

Look at this adorable bundle of cuteness!  I can honestly see myself hanging out with Sam, drinking coffee and watching a movie.  He is the absolute cutest ball of evil there ever was. I love this guy more than words.  

With so many Trick ‘r Treat items on Etsy, this one surely stands out. I may just have to purchase this one for myself.  

Only $23.99 at Jamie Swimm Designs

Room 237 Keychain – All Things Hip and Cool

Who here does not love The Shining?  Room 237 really instilled terror in my younger self, talking to the TV screen to warn Danny not to go in there.   

I love how this looks like a real old fashion hotel room keytag. You just know that people who are not fans of the film will miss the meaning behind it. I would proudly display this on my keys every single day for the rest of forever.

Even my youngest child – who is too young for a job – could afford this at $4.99 at All Things Hip and Cool.

 

I know all most moms really want for Mother’s Day is a day off and to be surrounded by her children. The older we get, the more time with the kids is really all that matters.

Is there a certain item you are wishing for this year from your children?  What do you really want for Mother’s Day? Sound off in the comments below.

Wishing you a Mother’s Day full of all the joy your heart can hold.

‘Evil Dead’ Film Franchise Getting TWO New Installments

Published

on

It was a risk for Fede Alvarez to reboot Sam Raimi’s horror classic The Evil Dead in 2013, but that risk paid off and so did its spiritual sequel Evil Dead Rise in 2023. Now Deadline is reporting that the series is getting, not one, but two fresh entries.

We already knew about the Sébastien Vaniček upcoming film that delves into the Deadite universe and should be a proper sequel to the latest film, but we are broadsided that Francis Galluppi and Ghost House Pictures are doing a one-off project set in Raimi’s universe based off of an idea that Galluppi pitched to Raimi himself. That concept is being kept under wraps.

Evil Dead Rise

“Francis Galluppi is a storyteller who knows when to keep us waiting in simmering tension and when to hit us with explosive violence,” Raimi told Deadline. “He is a director that shows uncommon control in his feature debut.”

That feature is titled The Last Stop In Yuma County which will release theatrically in the United States on May 4. It follows a traveling salesman, “stranded at a rural Arizona rest stop,” and “is thrust into a dire hostage situation by the arrival of two bank robbers with no qualms about using cruelty-or cold, hard steel-to protect their bloodstained fortune.”

Galluppi is an award-winning sci-fi/horror shorts director whose acclaimed works include High Desert Hell and The Gemini Project. You can view the full edit of High Desert Hell and the teaser for Gemini below:

‘Invisible Man 2’ Is “Closer Than Its Ever Been” to Happening

Published

on

Elisabeth Moss in a very well-thought-out statement said in an interview for Happy Sad Confused that even though there have been some logistical issues for doing Invisible Man 2 there is hope on the horizon.

Podcast host Josh Horowitz asked about the follow-up and if Moss and director Leigh Whannell were any closer to cracking a solution to getting it made. “We are closer than we have ever been to cracking it,” said Moss with a huge grin. You can see her reaction at the 35:52 mark in the below video.

Happy Sad Confused

Whannell is currently in New Zealand filming another monster movie for Universal, Wolf Man, which might be the spark that ignites Universal’s troubled Dark Universe concept which hasn’t gained any momentum since Tom Cruise’s failed attempt at resurrecting The Mummy.

Also, in the podcast video, Moss says she is not in the Wolf Man film so any speculation that it’s a crossover project is left in the air.

Meanwhile, Universal Studios is in the middle of constructing a year-round haunt house in Las Vegas which will showcase some of their classic cinematic monsters. Depending on attendance, this could be the boost the studio needs to get audiences interested in their creature IPs once more and to get more films made based on them.

The Las Vegas project is set to open in 2025, coinciding with their new proper theme park in Orlando called Epic Universe.

Published

Jake gyllenhaal presumed innocent

Jake Gyllenhaal’s limited series Presumed Innocent is dropping on AppleTV+ on June 12 instead of June 14 as originally planned. The star, whose Road House reboot has brought mixed reviews on Amazon Prime, is embracing the small screen for the first time since his appearance on Homicide: Life on the Street in 1994.

Jake Gyllenhaal’s in ‘Presumed Innocent’

Presumed Innocent is being produced by David E. Kelley, J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot, and Warner Bros. It is an adaptation of Scott Turow’s 1990 film in which Harrison Ford plays a lawyer doing double duty as an investigator looking for the murderer of his colleague.

These types of sexy thrillers were popular in the ’90s and usually contained twist endings. Here’s the trailer for the original:

According to Deadline, Presumed Innocent doesn’t stray far from the source material: “…the Presumed Innocent series will explore obsession, sex, politics and the power and limits of love as the accused fights to hold his family and marriage together.”

Up next for Gyllenhaal is the Guy Ritchie action movie titled In the Grey scheduled for release in January 2025.

Presumed Innocent is an eight-episode limited series set to stream on AppleTV+ starting June 12.
