Spooky Season is just around the corner and you’ll soon be driving past decaying cornfields. Amongst the brown stalks will be quite a few scarecrows that probably give you the creeps more than any birds that would hit the field for lunch. Dark Night of the Scarecrow scared millions of TV viewers a week before Halloween back in 1981. This was no happy TV movie. You might remember hiding under your parents’ coffeetable. Now it’s going to look even better with both a 4K UHD and Blu-ray version arriving in September. Also included is Dark Night of the Scarecrow 2 that came out 40 years later. Here’s the press release from VCI Entertainment:

Lee Daniels’ first-ever horror effort, “The Deliverance,” is not to be confused with 1972’s “Deliverance.” Although, much like John Boorman’s three-time Oscar nominee about idiot canoers going through hell in rural Georgia, it does make movie-watching pretty painful. 15 Years Later, the Adventure of Making 'Coraline' Continues



Not since “Hillbilly Elegy” has Netflix done Glenn Close so dirty. That’s true even taking into account her small part in the hugely horrible “Heart of Stone” for the streamer last year. “The Deliverance” director Daniels, an ambitious storyteller with an admirably spotty track record, is best known for creating the TV show “Empire” with...

GROTESQUERIE Teaser: "In Ryan Murphy’s 10-episode drama series Grotesquerie for FX, a series of heinous crimes have unsettled a small community. “Detective Lois Tryon” feels these crimes are eerily personal, as if someone—or something—taunting her. At home, Lois grapples with a strained relationship with her daughter, a husband in long-term hospital care and her own inner demons. With no leads and unsure of where to turn, she accepts the help of “Sister Megan,” a nun and journalist with the Catholic Guardian. Sister Megan, with her own difficult past, has seen the worst of humanity, yet she still believes in its capacity for good. Lois, on the other hand, fears the world is succumbing to evil. As Lois and Sister Megan string together clues, they find themselves ensnared in a sinister web that only seems to raise more questions than answers.
