Nicole Kidman didn’t want to take her work home with her after playing Celeste on the HBO hit Big Little Lies. The 50-year-old actress opened up about portraying the victim of domestic abuse, including the incredibly graphic and violent sex scenes between herself and co-star Alexander Skarsgard, who played her abusive husband, Perry.
“There wasn't really any rehearsal,” she told W magazine in its new issue. “It was more on the day we would go in and do it. Alex was so in it, and I was so in it, and there was — talking about trust — an enormous amount of trust there, yet at times it felt dangerous and really upsetting, and I would go home afterwards and I would feel — I would keep on a very brave face at work and then I would go home and I didn't realize how much it had penetrated me. And it affected me in a deep way.”

Featuring two members of notorious alt-metal unit Dog Fashion Disco (frontman Todd Smith and guitarist Jasan Stepp), Maryland-based “psychedelic metal” band Polkadot Cadaver essentially carries on the former group's bizarre and experimental aesthetic, with the same emphasis on macabre themes. They've toured with FEARnet faves like Wednesday 13, Wayne Static, and William Control, and this week they made “The Devil's Dozen” on Sirius Xm's station Liquid Metal. I'm kind of surprised they haven't broken bigger among horror, metal and dark rock fans, but I'm gonna do my best to improve that situation here. Their third album, which goes by the magnificently tasteless handle Last Call in Jonestown (following the equally warped but not nearly as heavy 2011 release Sex Offender), is a prime example of their dark, aggressive and slightly schizo sound. The band dubs this project “heavy as Zeus's balls,” and I think that's as good a summation of their sound...

Though she's known these days as the sweet and innocent Lily on the CBS sitcom "How I Met Your Mother," Alyson Hannigan's biggest contribution to pop culture is indisputably her role as the sweet and not-so-innocent Michelle Flaherty in the "American Pie" franchise.
Her character's big reveal at the climax of the classic 1999 teen comedy, in which the audience's (and protagonist Jim's) perception of her goes from tame to over-the-top with one unforgettable "band camp" story, is a scene that has achieved near mythic status among millennial moviegoers, and we've all got a special place in our hearts for her because of it. However, Hannigan's very first starring role came more than a decade before she rocked Jason Biggs' world, in the sci-fi comedy "My Stepmother Is an Alien."
At the time it was a big career boost for the then 14 year-old actress, who had only appeared briefly...
