About Skinwalker Ranch
Skinwalker Ranch, also known as Sherman Ranch, is a 512-acre property located southeast of Ballard, Utah. It is believed to be the site of various paranormal and UFO-related activities. The ranch is named after the skin-walker of Navajo legend, which refers to vengeful shamans.
Background
Reports of UFO sightings in the Uintah Basin became widely known in the 1970s. However, the claims about the famous ranch first surfaced in 1996 through an article published in the Salt Lake City-based newspaper called Deseret News. Investigative journalist George Knapp later wrote a series of articles about the ranch in Las Vegas Mercury, a popular weekly magazine. The reports described the inexplicable and terrifying experiences of a family who had purchased and occupied the property.
The ranch, situated in Uintah County in the western region, adjacent to the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation, gained popularity as the UFO ranch due to its alleged 50-year history of peculiar incidents. Kelleher and Knapp reported nearly 100 occurrences that included mysterious disappearances and mutilations of cattle, sightings of unidentified flying objects or orbs, large animals with red eyes that remained unharmed by gunfire, and invisible objects emitting destructive magnetic fields. Retired US Army Colonel John B. Alexander, involved in the investigation, described the NIDSci effort as a scientific approach to gather solid evidence. However, the investigators acknowledged the challenges they faced in obtaining scientifically publishable evidence.
Cattle mutilations have been part of the folklore of the surrounding area for decades. When Robert Bigelow, founder of the National Institute for Discovery Science, purchased the ranch for $200,000 in 1996, this was reportedly the result of his having been convinced by the stories of mutilations, which included tales of strange lights and unusual impressions made in grass and soil told by the family of former ranch owner Terry Sherman.

Hulu picks up ‘The Toxic Avenger’ for January streaming debut
Hulu has acquired streaming rights to the cult classic The Toxic Avenger, set to premiere on January 8, 2026. Directed by Macon Blair, it stars Peter Dinklage and features a notable cast. The film addresses themes of justice while contributing to philanthropic efforts in medical debt.
Hulu is adding a new cult-leaning superhero to its lineup. Cineverse (Nasdaq: CNVS) announced that Hulu has acquired streaming rights to The Toxic Avenger, with the film set to make its SVOD premiere on Thursday, Jan. 8, 2026.
The action-comedy/horror title has already built strong buzz with critics and genre fans, including an 86% score on Rotten Tomatoes, according to Cineverse.
A reboot with a stacked cast
Written and directed by Macon Blair (I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore), The Toxic Avenger features an ensemble cast led by Peter Dinklage as Winston Gooze, a downtrodden janitor whose life changes after a catastrophic toxic accident.
Cineverse highlighted additional cast members including Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, and Taylour Paige.
What the story is about
The film follows Winston Gooze after he’s transformed into a new kind of radioactive hero: the Toxic Avenger. Now “Toxie” must go from outcast to savior, taking on corporate overlords and corrupt forces while trying to protect his son, his friends, and his community.
In Cineverse’s words: in a world where greed runs rampant, “justice is best served radioactive.”
A campaign with real-world impact
Beyond the film’s critical reception, Cineverse credited the movie’s campaign with helping eliminate more than $15 million in medical debt for over 10,000 people, in partnership with Undue Medical Debt.
Where it goes after Hulu
Cineverse said Hulu’s debut will be part of an exclusive window. After that, the film is expected to become available on other SVOD and FAST platforms, including Cineverse’s horror-focused streaming brand Screambox.
For viewers who don’t want to wait, Cineverse noted the film is currently available to rent (TVOD) or purchase digitally and on physical media.

Angel Studios and 2521 Entertainment Acquire DAVID Franchise, Set December Theatrical Release
Angel Studios partnered with 2521 Entertainment to acquire the DAVID franchise from Slingshot USA, including an animated film and television series set for a December 19 release. The project, based on David’s biblical story, underscores Angel’s commitment to family-oriented, values-based entertainment.
Last Updated on October 24, 2025 by Daily News Staff
PROVO, Utah – Angel Studios (NYSE: ANGX) announced Tuesday it has partnered with 2521 Entertainment to acquire the DAVID franchise from Slingshot USA, bringing one of the company’s most anticipated projects under its direct ownership ahead of a December 19 theatrical release.
The acquisition includes both an animated feature film and a five-part television series based on the biblical story of David, the shepherd boy who defeated Goliath and became king of Israel. The project was created by the same studio and director behind YOUNG DAVID, an animated series that achieved some of the highest approval ratings in Angel Guild history.
Strategic Asset for Growing Platform
“DAVID is the largest audience-funded film in history,” said Neal Harmon, co-founder and CEO of Angel Studios. “Owning the DAVID intellectual property is a long-term strategic asset, and we anticipate making similar series acquisitions that resonate with the Angel Guild and have performed exceptionally well on our platform.”
The acquisition comes as Angel’s grassroots membership base—the Angel Guild—has grown beyond 1.5 million members across more than 180 countries. These paying members help decide which film and television projects the studio will market and distribute, creating what the company calls a values-based approach to entertainment.
Angel plans to explore producing additional episodes of the DAVID animated television series to extend the franchise, responding to strong demand for television content among Guild members.
A Story Three Decades in the Making
Director Phil Cunningham described the journey to bring DAVID to screens as a testament to faith and perseverance.
“A vision that began over 30 years ago has required immense sacrifice, faith, bravery, and commitment from many to bring it to completion, and we have arrived at this moment,” Cunningham said. “David dared to take off Saul’s armour and go to battle with just a slingshot. Angel has proven time and again that it is a leader and willing to take on the biggest challenges.”
The animated feature digs deeper into David’s life beyond his famous confrontation with Goliath, exploring his roles as warrior, poet, shepherd, and eventual king who led and inspired a nation.
Proven Partnership
Angel and 2521 Entertainment have collaborated on 14 projects to date, including notable releases such as SOUND OF FREEDOM, which earned $250 million at the worldwide box office, KING OF KINGS, THE WINGFEATHER SAGA, and THE LAST RODEO. The companies also have YOUNG WASHINGTON scheduled for upcoming release.
“At 2521 Entertainment our mission is to go beyond entertainment and offer families stories that elevate and leave a lasting impression in an otherwise distracted world,” said David L. Hunt, co-founder and chief creative officer of 2521 Entertainment. “DAVID is one of those rare movies that will build meaningful, lasting family memories and connections. And there are few things in life more valuable than that.”
Founded in 2023, 2521 Entertainment has quickly established itself in faith-based and values-driven content, with credits including KING OF KINGS—the highest-grossing faith-based animated opening ever—and HOUSE OF DAVID, Amazon Prime’s top-ranked series.
Release Schedule Adjustment
As part of the acquisition and release strategy, Angel announced that ZERO A.D., previously scheduled for December 19, 2025, will now be released in 2026. This clears the holiday theatrical window for DAVID’s debut.
“At a time when the world is craving hope, David’s unyielding courage and faith remind us all to stand tall,” Harmon said. “I am profoundly grateful for the miracle of this moment.”
The December 19 release positions DAVID as a holiday season offering for families seeking values-based entertainment during the theatrical window traditionally dominated by major studio releases.
