It never fails; when the season finale of a series you are really like comes, a bit of panic sets in as you wonder if you’ll get to see more. Will it be canceled or renewed?

Is The Northeast The Scariest Place on Earth?
The United States is a big place, encompassing about 1,650 miles of space between the Canadian and Mexican borders. As such, location scouts rarely have to go very far to find an environment for a horror picture. Desert or snowcapped mountains, volcanoes, cities, or farms, the US can act as a surrogate for just about every location on Earth. There’s even a rainforest off the mainland in Puerto Rico. George A. Romero Of course, different states have different resources available to horror productions. California, the home of LA and Hollywood, is the obvious example. The CableTV website reports 163 “deaths” in the Sunshine State from just 17 movies, including The Fog, The Shining, Alfred Hitchcock’s seminal The Birds, and Killer Klowns from Outer Space, an oddly satisfying watch even after all these years. However, California doesn’t come close to Pennsylvania’s fictional death toll of 615 from six movies. As this fictional catastrophe can mainly be laid at George A. Romero’s

Black Mirror’s Loch Henry, One Of The Most Disturbing Entries To The Series

Spoiler-Free Reviews: STAG and AMERICAN MELTDOWN (Chattanooga Film Festival)
Stag (2022) Writer/director Alexandra Spieth’s horror comedy Stag balances those two styles together nicely while adding some serious drama to the mix. The result is an amusing feature that aims for the feelings as well as the fear and fun factors. Jenny (Mary Glen Fredrick) learns through social media that her former best friend Mandy (Elizabeth Ramos) — “I go by Amanda now”— is getting married. The estranged friends make an awkward reconnection over the phone during which Mandy invites Jenny to her bachelorette party trip, which is being held at a remote property on which a young woman was rumored to have been sacrificed. Jenny gives new meaning to the term socially awkward as she finds herself among the other guests, maid of honor Willa (Liana Hunt) and her younger sister Casey (Stephanie Hogan) — whose family owns the property— Leslie (Safiya Harris), and Constance (Katie Wieland). Strangely acting one-eyed groundskeeper Devon (Daniel Boyd) is on hand to make
