OCTOBERLAND (2015) Trailer, Poster, Stills, Gifs


SYNOPSIS: On Halloween five friends head into the woods to tell scary stories around a campfire...Trick or treaters find more than they bargained for when they go in search of candy. An abandoned house isn't as abandoned as it appears. A costume party takes a sour spin...But the scariest story of the night, might be the one they're in!

Octoberland is an award winning student/independent horror anthology film written by Nolan Sordyl and John Kuder, directed by Nolan Sordyl, and starring Macey Heslet, Ronny Woodburn, Dani Schwinn, Cleo DeOrio, Phil Gasser, Seth Chamberlain, James Nickerson, Kayse Schmucker, Will Bradford, Dan Telford and Joe Delaney. This is the feature length directorial debut for Baldwin Wallace senior Nolan Sordyl, shot entirely in Northeast Ohio.

Each segment is ok for a student/independent film, like most indie-films the acting is bad and the audio is all over the place, loud in some scenes and too low or drowned out by music in other scenes. The opening credits scene is strange (or I guess clever, idk) and the ending didn't make sense, but that guy who played Will was a looker, right John? I enjoyed watching the film but I think most people will find it terrible. Check out the trailer, spoiler gifs, and stills below.

Watch THE STAR WARS HALLOWEEN SPECIAL Intro

Video by HardCheapKnock:

Before the infamous 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special graced our eyeballs there was an earlier Star Wars special that many never heard about. To aggressively swell the amazing success of the 1977 Star Wars: A New Hope summer release, the 20th Century FOX executives decided to get something produced for the fans as quickly as they could. But their initial holiday offering was dissed horribly by critics & fans alike and was shutdown during the actual television broadcast. Unfortunately this is only a portion of the show's beginning intro but proof nonetheless.

3 DEAD TRICK OR TREATERS (2016) Trailer and Poster


Yesterday ComingSoon.net premiered the trailer and a new poster (above) for the film 3 Dead Trick or Treaters (2016), written and directed by Canadian filmmaker Torin Langen. 3 Dead Trick or Treaters (2016) along with 10/31/16 (2017) and Candy Corn (2018) are my top 3 films I can't wait to check out this year or next. Watch the trailer after the synopsis below...

SYNOPSIS: After stumbling upon the graves of three murdered trick or treaters, a small town paperboy discovers a series of handwritten horror stories tacked to the children’s headstones. Penned by a deranged pulp author driven mad by his craft, the stories chronicle grisly tales of Halloween rites, rituals and traditions. Absent of dialogue and heavy on atmosphere, 3 Dead Trick or Treaters is an anthology chiller unlike any you’ve seen before.
