Back in 1975, director Peter Weir adapted Joan Lindsay’s Picnic at Hanging Rock into a feature film, telling a deeply compelling story centered on the mystery surrounding the disappearance of a group of young female friends. During a literal picnic at Hanging Rock on Valentine’s Day, a group of girls goes missing, and it’s up to you to figure out what truly happened.

This year, Amazon brings a brand new version of Picnic at Hanging Rock to their Prime Streaming service, in the form of a six episode mini-series debuting on May 25.

Amazon’s Picnic at Hanging Rock is being billed as…

“A gripping reimagining of the Australian novel that plunges into the mysterious disappearance of three schoolgirls and their governess.

Starring Natalie Dormer as the enigmatic headmistress of Appleyard College, the six episode limited series follows the subsequent investigation and the event’s far-reaching impact on the students and staff of the college.”

Starring alongside Dormer as the three students who mysteriously vanish include Samara Weaving as Irma Leopold, a Rothschild heiress; Madeleine Madden as Marion Quade, daughter of a high court Justice; and Lily Sullivan as Miranda Reid, the rebellious tomboy who grew up with four brothers on a cattle station. These girls have a strong bond and together resist the edicts of society. Other cast members include Lola Bessis, Yael Stone, Anna McGahan, Sibylla Budd, Ruby Rees and Inez Curro.

“Chucky” – Official Trailer for This Week’s New Episode Brings Brad Dourif into the White House!

Brad Dourif

Just two episodes remain in Season 3 of “Chucky,” with the second-to-last episode airing this Wednesday night on USA & SYFY. It’s titled “There Will Be Blood,” and oh yes there will be.

Last week’s episode was absolutely INSANE, with Chucky taking control of the situation room in the White House and attempting to start World War 3. His plan was thwarted, but not before nuking the North Pole. In the wake of launching that missile, Chucky met the true death, his doll body disintegrating into ash like he got Thanos snapped out of existence.

The episode ended with an appearance from Brad Dourif as Charles Lee Ray in his human form, with his spirit now free from the doll and roaming around the haunted White House.

Here’s the official plot synopsis for this week’s episode: “Parapsychologists investigate the disturbances in the White House, while Tiffany (Jennifer Tilly) plans her escape.”

“There Will Be Blood” airs Wednesday, April 24 on USA and SYFY. Reversing a new plan they tested out last week, we’re told the episode will be available on Peacock this Thursday.

Watch the trailer below to preview this week’s bloody new episode!
