I sat down for an interview with actress Carly Turro to talk about her on the zomcom series “Bunkheads” which is now streaming on Amazon Prime. She also discussed her role in the Golden Globe-winning series “Homeland” and Blood Puppet! Christmas ’94, a new horror comedy headed your way later this year. Horror Fuel: “Tell us about you, what made you want to get into acting?” Carly Turro: “It took me a little while to figure it out. I was originally studying biology in college and thought that I wanted to go into some kind of science as a career or research, then I thought maybe med school until I made a switch into acting. I figured out that I wasn’t going to be happy or have a long sustainable career in something like medicine. It wasn’t the right fit for me.

June’s episode of “Into the Dark”, titled “They Come Knocking”, is about a father and his two daughters on a road trip to spread the ashes of their mother. Once they have arrived at the remote spot where the father purposed, the episode takes a frightening turn when the struggling family is stalked by black eyed children. The episode is the most emotionally driven episode to date. As we watch flashbacks and see the family’s tension, the story of the mother’s illness and death comes to light. I’ll be honest, this part of the episode got under my skin. The mother’s passing and the emotional wreckage hit so close to home for me. You see, my father went through something so similar as cancer took him. I could relate a little too well to the family. I may have even shed a tear or two. The blacked eyed children, characters we do not see often enough in film, are creepy

Greg Yaitanes who directed “Castle Rock‘s” the episode “The Queen” in the first season, is back in the director’s chair for the second season, which is now in production. Yaitanes will be directing two episodes this season, including the premiere of the J.J. Abrams-produced series. Season two will spend a lot of time in the nearby town of Jerusalem’s Lot and will delve into the origin story of Miserey character Annie Wilkes, played by Lizzy Caplan (Cloverfield). We wanted to evolve the look on a visual level, and move [more] and be with characters more,” Yaitanes told Indiewire. “One of the things that worked well with ‘The Queen’ was point of view.

We’re taking the things that worked well in Season 1 and taking them up a level.” He continued, “We’re seeing

May’s episode, titled “All That We Destroy”, is a tale about the lengths a mother will go to to protect her son.
