Monolith is a new indie sci-fi film from Australia that tells the story of a disgraced journalist who makes an alien discovery.

[released in cinemas in April](http://movieweb.com/evil-dead-rise-theaters/).

Celebrity Treasure Island power rankings, week four: What's in the ... (The Spinoff)

It's week four of New Zealand's favourite reality show, and the arrival of a giant ancient structure has sent the game into a frenzy.

Just when you think Dame Susan Devoy cannot get any weirder, she goes and talks about jelly wrestling, foo foo valves and whether or not the monolith actually contains a peep show. Mel knows when it is time to step up and time to sit back, and had a quieter week. For the third time this week Elvis went “head over biscuit” during a challenge, but picked himself right back up again and kept twerking through the pain. Not only did he #FreeKaren, but he went on to regain his lead. Who knows what else this man is capable of? I miss last week when you were all “note” this and “note” that. Courtenay Louise is so hellbent on representing women in the finale that I am slightly scared she is going to accidentally eliminate all the other women in the competition!!!! The devil works hard, but Melodie Robinson works harder. In yet another twist in this endless Coca-Cola Corkscrew Coaster of emotions, Cassie Roma chose to eliminate herself from the competition to spend more time with her family at home. Raise your kaftans high in the air for a real one. Or is it monolisk? A giant ancient stone structure has been plopped on the island and nobody knows what it is or what it wants.

Treasure Island star reveals their true colours (New Zealand Herald)

It's looking good. What's not looking good is Kuaka's Dylan Schmidt showing Jesse Tuke the clue he was slipped by Mangō's Ron Cribb, following last night's ...

Tuke realises he's made another grand mistake: "Dylan is the last person I'd want to be in an endurance challenge with. However, before any spicy drama can occur, the Treasure Island producers do what they do best and leave us high and dry. Mangō and Kuaka pack their bags and off they go to the mystery challenge. "But somehow, I need to warn Joel because he's in my other alliance." After helping O'Leary he races back to the challenge and somehow comes first place. She is in the right place at all the right times. Is he a superhero, or is it karma for helping O'Leary? All for one and one for all. Bless Kuaka's Tuke: Despite being in the lead, he turns around to help his pal. "You are kidding me," Tuke says of the clue's potentially damning details. They are really stuck between a rock and a hard place. Well, it did look good but then Dame Susan Devoy walked past and saw them with the clue in their hands.
