I knew that somebody had to have done it, and I was right. Candy.com sells what they proclaim to be the world’s largest gummy candy heart. Life-sized and weighing in at 1 and pounds, this cherry-flavored anatomically-correct sweet delight can be yours for only $15.95. Cheaper on bulk orders if you want to give one to all of your friends, add a little fake blood, and walk around the park gnawing and slurping.

Happy Death Day 2U gets a 2019 Valentine’s release with its official opening February 13th, 2019. A sequel to the 2017 film Happy Death Day, it promises more of the dark humor, scares, and gore that made the first one a pretty solid hit. Tree is transported back to the repeating day where she dies over and over again, only this time there are friends stuck in the loop with her. Warning, there is a serious spoiler of the first movie in the preview for the sequel. It also looks like you would get much more out of the sequel if you see the first one first. That said, it looks great and worth seeing for sure.

A trailer for the new Child’s Play movie for 2019 has been unboxed (see what I did there), and it looks really awesome. They look like they are going back to the beginning of things for a reboot. It’s a bit of a teaser, and Chucky is pretty well hidden in the trailer, but it’s enough to get you hooked. It’s not clear that there’s even a supernatural element to Chucky now, and they may have gone in the direction of science fiction horror. This time around, the Buddi dolls are high tech robot companions made by a Kaslan Corporation, and they have a terrific tie-in website. You can see the trailer, read about the specifications of the Buddi dolls, read about other high-tech products by Kaslan, and hear a special message from founder Henry Kaslan himself.
