Movie Review: The Last Thing Mary Saw Is A Deep And Dark Thriller

Writer-director Edoardo Vitaletti makes his feature debut with the religious thriller The Last Thing Mary Saw, starring Stefanie Scott (Insidious: Chapter 3), Isabelle Fuhrman (Orphan), Rory Culkin (Scream 4), Shane Coffey (“Pretty Little Liars”), Carolyn McCormick (“Law & Order”). and Judith Roberts (Dead Silence). Set in Southold, New York, in 1843, Mary is interrogated about the death of her family and the events that led up to it. As she recounts her tale we watch it play out. The film begins when it is discovered that Mary is in possession of a forbidden book and her family’s discovery that she and their maid are in a forbidden love affair. The family, religious zealots, put the girls through torture in an attempt to break their bonds, instead, it leads to death for many. Insidious 3 actress Stefanie Scott stars as Mary who, no matter how she tries, can not hide her love for Eleanor, played by Isabelle Fuhrman. The two have

Director Mickey Reece Talks “Climate Of The Hunter” And “Agnes”

Writer-director Mickey Reece, known for his arthouse films such as Arrows of Outrageous Fortune, Mono, and more, sat down with us to discuss his new film Climate of the Hunter, out this month on VOD. In the film, starring Ginger Gilmartin, Mary Buss, Ben Hall, and Jacob Ryan Snovel, “two sisters, Alma and Elizabeth, along with a dog who’s described as a “philosopher,” have come to Alma’s remote house to reconnect with Wesley after twenty years. Alma is recently divorced and Elizabeth is a workaholic in Washington, D.C., while Wesley lives in Paris dealing with a wife recently struck with a fatal disease. When the three come together for dinner it has all the makings of a lovely adult melodrama about loneliness, and the desire to connect and share our lives with someone… but we must add to the mix one otherworldly piece of information: Wesley could be a vampire.” Horror Fuel: “Where did the idea come from for your

Actor Brad Henke Talks CBS's "The Stand" In Our Interview

Actor Brad Henke Talks CBS’s “The Stand” In Our Interview

Unless you’ve been living under a rock somewhere, you’ve heard that a new limited series adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Stand” is on its way. I had the opportunity to sit down with one of the show’s cast, Brad William Henke, who plays the central role of Tom Cullen. Of course, this is far from the first time that I’ve heard Henke’s name, you see he’s starred in two of my favorite series, “Orange Is the New Black” in which he played a prison guard with a wrapped sense of justice, and “Justified”, as a redneck bad guy. Henke has been in over 95 films and series. I was eager to talk with him. Horror Fuel: “I really enjoyed your work in both Justified and Orange Is the New Black. Boy, you play a rough character in that one. Piscatella was a real piece of work. Was it difficult filming scenes like the one with Red and to get in
