Shriek

Venom 1+2

-> Venom (USA 2018, 112 Min., FSK 12):Als Journalist versucht Eddie schon seit Langem den zwielichtigen, aber genialen Gründer der Life Foundation, Carlton Drake (Riz Ahmed), zu überführen - eine Besessenheit, die ihn bereits seine Karriere und die Beziehung zu seiner Freundin Anne Weying (Michelle Williams) gekostet hat. Bei der aktuellen Recherche zu Drakes Experimenten verbindet sich das Alien Venom mit Eddies Körper und verleiht ihm nicht nur erstaunliche Superkräfte, sondern auch die Freiheit, zu tun, was immer er will. Durchtrieben, düster, unberechenbar und voller Zorn: Eddie muss lernen, die gefährlichen Kräfte, die von Venom ausgehen, zu kontrollieren. Und ist gleichzeitig berauscht von der neu gewonnen Macht, die er nun in sich spürt. Da sich Eddie und Venom gegenseitig brauchen, um ihre Ziele zu erreichen, verschmelzen sie immer mehr miteinander. Schließlich stellt sich die Frage: Ist das noch Eddie oder schon Venom?-> Venom - Let There Be Carnage (USA 2021, 97 Min., FSK 16):Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) lebt nun schon seit einiger Zeit mit dem außerirdischen Parasiten Venom in seinem Körper und die beiden haben sich mehr oder weniger miteinander arrangiert. Allerdings will Venom am liebsten den ganzen Tag Bösewichte verhauen und seinen gewaltigen Hunger stillen, während Eddie darum kämpft, seine Karriere als Journalist wieder in Gang zu bringen. Eine passende Gelegenheit könnte der Serienkiller Cletus Kasady (Woody Harrelson) sein, dessen Opfer immer noch nicht gefunden wurden und der nur mit Eddie über seine Taten sprechen will. Als Cletus dann hingerichtet werden soll, überlebt er, weil er sich ebenfalls mit einem Parasiten verbunden hat: Als Carnage sorgt er fortan für ein wahres Gemetzel, wobei ihm Frances Barrison alias Shriek (Naomie Harris) hilft, die über Schall-Superkräfte verfügt. Eddie und Venom haben also einiges zu tun...

Swamp Inheritance: The Swamp Series, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1104min

In the third book of the Swamp Series, visit the New Orleans area and a small town in the Louisiana swamp another time, where love crosses obsession and where deception, secrets, and murder are hidden in troubled minds in the streets of the city and behind a dark curtain of Spanish moss. Slip into the web of suspense where situations get sizzling and edgy, killers lurk, and passion runs hot and deep. Take a walk and get friendly with the warm and furry, once more.Domeno's skin crawled as if something had skittered along his shoulders. Emile stood a few feet away, the edges of his teeth showing behind the gray-toned skin. That same bony structure that had been misshapen and malformed months before had straightened, and the gobs and patches of hair that once covered his entire body were only wisps. His mismatched eyes held a reddish tint, not the solid wolf red of a shift, but close. Had another full moon worked that magic? Or, was it his double wolf genes?The man stood at the end of the crudely constructed table and studied the naked girl. Leather cuffs around her wrists and ankles bound her to the table, and a pair of leather straps, one across her chest, below her breasts, and one across her pale thighs. He had removed all her clothing except her shoes. She really should have let herself get more sun, he thought. The first girl he killed had been an accident, but none of them since had been accidental.The ball of white fur and gold eyes peered up at the man when he removed the lid. It waited a moment, as if judging the situation, placed one cautious paw at a time over the edge of the box, and climbed out. It could have easily been a dog, an overgrown puppy, but it wasn't. "Wolf!" the man cried, an instant before the animal sank its fangs into his throat with a snarling shriek and toppled him to the ground. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joseph G. Deak.

The Day Luck Died: First One Out Gets Pie! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 23min

Author's foreword:You better not breathe a word of this to anyone! The soldier stood at the pile of bodies. The room was filled with a sense of dread and fear. Not fear, maybe anger and revenge. When you see bodies stacked to the only way out, you understand it's a dog pile, of dog-face soldiers. "It's your way-out son", the voice came in my headset. It was my dads' voice!"Coming in loud and clear, Dad! Where the hell are you, Sergeant First Class Martin?" "Climb boy, before the thing that made that 100-man pile gets the 101st. Climb, boy!"I scrambled up the pile of bodies, not questioning my father's crackling voice through the headset. Whatever did this would do the same to me if I didn't get the hell out of there. At the sound of something scraping metal on concrete behind me... "Nemesis," I thought that shadow creature that was responsible for my lack of sleep for the last few days. Eight days, to be exact! I beat my record eight days without sleep! My head rocked. I knew in my weakened state. I would be mincemeat in nothing flat.The pile reached the only way out of the maze a small, round, glassless window. I scurried faster as I heard Nemesis around the corner and shriek its menacing scream....The window was within grasp; a few bodies shifted left and started to slide. I jumped and made the window, held on, as the pile started to fall. I went through the window as Nemesis just cried a blood-curdling scream.As I climbed through and was greeted with the most amazing sight, on the other side was heaven; the city lay beneath my now floating body. I landed and knowing the portal was gone, I didn't have the sense of being pursued. I saw the back of what appeared to be several marble and gold buildings as I made my way through the back of the walkway leading through the mall area. People were making their way through the mall greeting each other with hugs, kisses, and handshakes. I reached for my talk button, but ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elizabeth Hardman.
