If you've seen the promos for Darren Aronofsky's mother!, you probably think you've got a pretty good idea of what to expect: some kind of haunted-house horror about a couple (Jennifer Lawrence and Javier Bardem) whose blissful existence is upended by the arrival of some unexpected guests (Ed Harris and Michelle Pfeiffer).

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
