Countess Vaughn is one of the most beloved actors from the 90s and 2000s. For several seasons, she starred as the best friend of the title character on Moesha before getting a show based on her character. Since the show’s end, she’s continued acting and has appeared on multiple reality shows.

A spinoff of Moesha, The Parkers followed the mother-daughter duo, Nikki and Kim Parker, as they both attend a junior college and navigate their close relationship and individual lives. The show was canceled in 2003 ahead of Upn merging with The WB.
Mo’Nique, who starred as Nikki Parker alongside Vaughn as Kim, says a reboot has been in talks, but she’s not on board. However, she’s happy about the impact of the show.

What would happen if Nikki and Kim Parker from The Parkers lived in New York City? Apparently, they'd be giving us incredible dance numbers. At least, that's how dancers Sonia Allen and Tiffany Rae reimagined the popular characters in a video, courtesy of Andii Media. The clip, which was shared on Nov. 26, features Rae and Allen transforming into Kim and Nikki, respectively, as they get down to the theme song for The Parkers, as well as a special mashup of "Lose My Breath" by Destiny's Child and Missy Elliott's hits "Work It" and "All N My Grill."
Rae, who choreographed the routine, shared the video on Instagram, writing: "The Parker's In Newyork‼️ Happy thanksgiving!!

In the 1950s, independent film was just as keen to stick its nose in the atomic blender as the Hollywood big boys. Of course, budget restrictions frequently left most of the monsters wanting, be they big or small. But sometimes a shot of quirk was enough to stand apart from the Tinseltown terrors. I give you Fiend Without a Face (1958), a low budget romp content with showing less until it has to show it all, with giddy results.
Produced by British company Amalgamated Productions and distributed by MGM (in the States), Fiend was sent out on a double bill with The Haunted Strangler, a Boris Karloff vehicle. With a combined budget of 130,000 pounds, the double feature brought in domestic and international receipts of over $ 650,000 dollars, filmic diplomacy at its finest.

Fiend Without a Face first started out as a story that appeared in Weird Tales (possibly the best fantasy/horror fiction magazine ever) back in 1930 as “The Thought Monster” by Amelia Reynolds Long. The film’s director, Arthur Crabtree, also gave us Horrors of the Black Museum in 1959.
A lone sentry on patrol hears a crunching, slurping sound in the woods and goes to investigate. A farmer out checking on his cows in the early morning is attacked and the sentry arrives seconds later to find a dead man and no sign of the killer. Official cause of death: Heart Failure. The Air Force wants to do an autopsy but his daughter, Barbara (Kim Parker), won’t allow it and hands the body over to the local authorities.
The Adams farm comes under attack and the old couple die as horribly as Farmer Griselle did. The Air...
