Airing October 28 on Chiller is The American Scream, which also is premiering this weekend at the Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas (review forthcoming).

Endless styrofoam tombstones and backyard beasts come courtesy of a few supremely dedicated local “home haunters” who’ve devoted their lives to the art of handmade monster making. The American Scream follows three of these horrific households to uncover the triumphs and tragedies that come with carrying the blackened banner of true Halloween spirit.” READ MORE
