The Barn
Before The Barn Part II streams exclusively on Screambox on May 26, catch up on the 2016 original. The Barn stands out among the glut of ’80s slasher throwbacks because it’s not satirical or a send-up; the unapologetic love letter approaches the well-trodden material with a refreshing earnestness. Capturing not only the style but also the spirit of his influences, writer-director Justin M. Seaman taps directly into horror fans’ nostalgia while introducing an imaginative mythology with ample heart in a charming package.

President Joe Biden announced that WNBA star Brittney Griner has been released from a Russian prison on Thursday in exchange for arms trafficker Victor Bout.
After months of negotiation, Biden signed off the trade that set the basketball star free and, in exchange, the U.S. will send Bout back to Russia after more than 12 years in custody.
This means that American corporate security executive Paul Whelan will remain jailed in Russia. U.S. diplomats had hoped to include Whelan in any deal.

“Moments ago, standing together with her wife, Cherelle, in the Oval Office, I spoke with Brittney Griner,” said Biden on Thursday morning. “She is safe, she is on a plane, she is on her way home… She will soon be back in the arms of her loved ones and she should have been there all along.”

Brittney Griner, the WNBA star who had been held in Russian prisons for 10 months on drug charges, was released from custody Thursday. Griner was released as part of a long-talked-about prisoner swap negotiated by the U.S. State Department for convicted Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout.
According to CBS News, the one-for-one exchange was approved by President Joe Biden within the past week. Details of the deal remain unclear, but CBS News reports that at least one concession was made by only agreeing to swap one American prisoner for one Russian.

This isn't the first time a police reform storyline was at the forefront of an episode, but it did make for one of the most effective episodes.
The writers made some bold choices that paid off on Chicago Pd Season 8 Episode 8.
Initially, it seemed like yet another instance where a white cop killed an innocent Black man, but the situation quickly evolved into something way more complex than that.
There was no question as to whether or not David Whelan was guilty. Anyone who watched the footage was very much aware that he was going down for murder.
Everyone except for Whelan, that is, who remained ignorant and stuck to his version that he was acting in self-defense for far too long.
I get the intention, it just, I don’t know, seems a bit overzealous, right? I’m just saying, you don’t punish the many to get to the few.

*full disclosure: an online screener of this film was provided by Terror Films. This reviewer has worked on publicity for this film. Tagline: "Fear has no Borders." Director/writer: Phil Guidry, Simon Herbert and David Whelan. Cast: Monica Davis, Edward L. Green, Patrick Pedraza and VaLynn Rain. As the classic idiom states: "a photograph is worth a thousand words." In the case of Savageland, there are at least thirty-six photographs and a whole lot of victims. Very professionally shot, the film covers a fictional massacre, at Sangre de Cristo. The film is told in a pseudo-documentary style and Savageland comes across as a mystery, that you might find on the A & E Network. Much of the film is told through photographs, taken by the sole survivor Francisco Salazar (Noe Montes). They piece together a night of horror! The film comes across as believable, outside of a few lines and Salazar's conviction.

Savageland is a film from a trio of directors. Phil Guidry, Simon Herbert and David Whelan have developed this horror feature. And now, the film is set to see United States' video platforms on February 24th. In the film, there is only one survivor of a terrible massacre. It is believed that he is a serial killer. But, as more evidence emerges, it becomes apparent that something even more malevolent is at play. More of the film's story can be seen in the film's first trailer, found here! For more on the story, events take place at Sangre de Cristo. This small town is the focal point of a multiple murder investigation. Fifty-seven people have been killed or have disappeared and there is only one man left alive. His story is unbelievable, at first. Then, with more video footage, it becomes obvious that there is more than one killer. Savageland...

This year's festival was held over two weekends in Southend, in the Park Inn by Radisson Palace Hotel. Friday 20 January's standout movie was 'Savageland' (directors: Phil Guidry, Simon Herbert and David Whelan, 2015, Us). A prisoner is convicted to die by lethal injection after he is accused of going on a killing spree in his one-horse town. As he's the town loner, the survivors are keen to see him executed. Cinema verite interviews of the local sheriff and other town worthies add uncomfortable realism, as talking heads say there may be no direct motive for the murders but there's also a lot of local hate...

Terror Films has acquired another indie, horror title for distribution. Titled Savageland, this film was written and directed by: Phil Guidry, Simon Herbert and David Whelan. Savageland involves a small town on the Arizona-Mexico border, which is wiped out by a vicious attack. One lone survivor has photos from that chilling night. This feature is slated for a 2017 release, across North America. A preview of the film's launch is hosted here. There is a bit of mystique surrounding Savageland. Only a few stills have been released for this title. Two of those photos can be found here. They show strange figures moving in dark grey or white backgrounds as if captured on a film roll negative. As well, early reviews have been positive, with Michael Klug, of HorrorFreak News, saying of the film's unnerving nature "[it] digs at something even deeper within." This unsettling picture will see a wide release through Video-on-demand and other digital platforms,...
