Long before “Squid Games,” “The Hunger Games” and other fictional competitions involving risking one’s life for boundless riches, Stephen King wrote “The Long Walk.”

“The Long Walk” follows 50 young men who have voluntarily agreed to take part in a competition in which the winner receives a hefty sum of money and the granting of a wish.

The competition has one rule: the young men must walk endlessly and keep a pace of 3mph. Those who don’t are executed promptly, and the last one standing wins it all.

The film is filled with gruesome deaths and will have your heart racing, but it’s a hard-hitting reflection on the issues in our own world, and it’s one that’s worth the watch.

A little over a year after the release of her last album, “Short and Sweet,” pop star Sabrina Carpenter has released her newest album, “Man’s Best Friend,” to declare that she is anything but.

The album, produced alongside Amy Allen, Jack Antonoff and John Ryan, was released on Aug. 29. It features 12 tracks, starting with “Manchild,” which was originally released as a single on June 5.

While many of the lyrics reflect on past relationship struggles, annoyances and anecdotes, the album doesn’t convey heartbreak in the slightest, but rather, is an ode to moving up and onwards.

The Aztecs are still working out the kinks as they prepare for Friday’s match against Santa Clara following a tough loss against USD. Rommee Jaridly earned the Aztecs’ sole goal 86 minutes into the match– and after the Toreros had already put two on the board.

“I told our guys, that felt like an NCAA tournament second round type of game,” said Aztecs’ head coach Ryan Hopkins. “And in those games, you can’t make those big mistakes I felt like we did on the first two goals.”
