[TV Bites] Next On “American Horror Story” Episode 3, Behind The Scenes Of “AHS” And “Mockingbird Lane”
“American Horror Story: Asylum,” aired its second episode of the season, “Tricks And Treats”, tonight. In the episode, ““The staff summon an exorcist to deal with a possessed farm boy, while Sister Jude’s dark past is revealed.” The new season is set at an East Coast asylum for the criminally insane in 1964 and revolves around Jessica Lange’s new character — a nun — and her boss at the institution, played by James Cromwell. Sarah Paulson, Zachary Quinto, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Clea Duvall, Chris Zylka, Joseph Fiennes, Chloe Sevigny, and Adam Levine round out the cast.
If you’ve already watched the first episode and are primed for the second, I think it’s safe to watch the brief behind the scenes clip – entitled “The Opening” – that we’ve included below the jump. And if you’ve already seen the second episode, it’s safe to watch the promo for Episode 3 – “Nor’easter” (airing October 31st at 10:00 pm e/p): “A violent storm hits Briarcliff, allowing a group of patients to plan a daring escape. Sister Jude (Jessica Lange) is haunted by her past.” Written by Jennifer Salt; directed by Michael Uppendahl.
We’ve also got a glimpse behind the curtain of the pilot turned Halloween special “Mockingbird Lane“. Earlier today we shared 5 clips from the show, but if you’re not yet satiated – this behind the scenes clip is for you. I’m actually kind of curious to see this one!! This new, reimagined version of the classic 1960’s comedy “The Munsters” is based on executive producer Bryan Fuller’s (“Pushing Daisies,” “Heroes”) script and was directed by executive producer Bryan Singer (“X-Men” film series, “House”).
“Mockingbird Lane” airs Friday, October 26 on NBC. Head inside for the clips!
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
