While it seems like slasher movies disappeared sometime in the early 2000s, approximately after the emergence of Scream and its flood of opportunistic imitators and cash-grabs, masked killers and their teenage fodder never truly went away. More accurately, major studios put a pause on big-budget slashers. In the meantime, indie filmmakers like Greg Huson kept the subgenre from disappearing altogether; his movie Shredder was one of several last dying breaths for old-fashioned, original slashers before splatter films and remakes began to flourish.

While the bigger and more notable slasher franchises haven’t exactly embraced ice-cold surroundings, movies like the Idaho-shot Shredder understand the potential fun and advantages of a wintry environment. It brings new meaning to the word “stranded.” The contrast between stark whites and deep reds is also a satisfying sight for horror fans, especially when a movie is as blanketed in white powder as this one. Right from the start,...

Madrid — Ahead of next week’s Natpe market in Miami, Beta, one of the biggest independent TV-film powerhouses in Europe, has confirmed a swathe of sales on its U.S. TV movie productions and high-end spin-off series “Gomorrah: The Immortal.”

The sales flag Beta’s diversified production-distribution model, and the continuing appetite for TV movies in the U.S., led by Lifetime and Hallmark channels, as the demand for movies of all type rises in a new streaming platform era.

In banner sales, A & E has acquired a bevy of U.S. TV thrillers for Lifetime, among them “Fatal Friend Request,” starring Sarah Lind (“True Justice”) and Bree Williamson (“Private Eyes”), produced by Cartel, “Purity Falls” by Stargazer, with Krisanna Loken (“Burn Notice2) and Trevor Stines (“Riverdale”) and a trio of Ninth House-productions: “Perfect Party Planner,” toplining Lindsey McKeon (“Supernatural”), “Bridal Nightmare” with Karissa Lee Staples (“S.W.A.T.”) and Mark Hapka...

Prey, also known as Indigenous, follows a group of tourists as they travel to the paradise of Panama for their post-graduation vacation. After meeting a few locals, the five friends decide to check out a supposedly magical waterfall deep in the jungle, despite others warning them of the lurking indigenous Chupacabras. After their guide vanishes, the group soon find they have fallen prey to something stalking them in the jungle.

In this day and age of instant gratification, the fact that a movie has taken two years to finally see the light of day in the UK – especially given how fast non-theatrical titles hit VOD these days – is usually a bad omen. And that’s totally true of Prey; a film which wastes 25 minutes of its already short, less than 80 minutes,...

Taking risks as you try to figure out where you belong, and what you should be doing with your life, can be a difficult challenge for anyone, no matter what their circumstances or personalities are like. That’s certainly the case with both actress Lindsey McKeon, a former two-time Daytime Emmy Award nominee for her role as Marah Lewis on ‘Guiding Light,’ as well as one of her more recent characters, Tessa the Reaper, on the hit CW series, ‘Supernatural.’ The actress began her career on more family oriented shows as ‘Saved by the Bell: The New Class’ and ‘Boy Meets World,’ before delving into more sultry roles, such as on [ Read More ]

The post Interview: Lindsey McKeon Talks Supernatural appeared first on Shockya.com.

(Cbr) "Supernatural's" Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) has had many memorable run-ins with the Grim Reaper, both of the literal and metaphorical variety. The most haunting and harrowing of the literal encounters were the ones that brought him face to face with Tessa (Lindsey McKeon), a reaper who claimed souls for the physical embodiment of Death. They first crossed paths in season two of "Supernatural" when Tessa tried to claim a comatose Dean’s soul. Their subsequent encounters in seasons four and six reminded Dean that the natural order of the universe was complicated and ugly, but necessary. Tessa came to feel the pain of the natural order herself in season nine thanks to the Angel Metatron’s machinations and their impact on the afterlife. The fatefully intertwined Dean and Tessa had their final run-in during the penultimate episode of season nine, with Tessa drawing their saga to a close...

Casting News for Recovery: “Kirby Bliss Blanton (The Green Inferno, Project X) and Samuel Larsen (“Glee”) have been cast in the upcoming thriller “Recovery”, starting production this summer. The film follows Blanton’s character on the night of her high school graduation after her iPhone is stolen and tracked down with a “find my iPhone” app to a house where the demented tenants plan on kidnapping her and making her part of the family. Alex Shaffer (Win Win) and James Landry Hébert (Two Step, Gangster Squad) are also on board to star.

Dean Winchester, what have you done?

Not one week after Dean took his blade to Abaddon, Dean Winchester and his Fb-bff (First Blade Best Friend Forever) have struck again. This week’s casualties? Gadreel, who before death was ready to help them defeat Metatron, and Tessa the Reaper.

To be fair, though, Tessa’s death wasn’t technically Dean’s fault. She impaled herself in the blade. (Read our interview with Lindsey McKeon here, by the way.)

But if Dean hadn’t brought the blade with him in the first place — as Sam suggested — the whole situation could have been avoided.

Spoiler alert: If you haven’t watched the May 13 episode of Supernatural, you probably want to stop reading now. Actually, you definitely want to stop reading now!

When we found out Tessa the Reaper was returning for an episode of Supernatural, there was no way we ever thought it meant that Death’s righthand woman would meet, well, death. But that’s precisely what happened when poor Tessa decided to take her own life. More specifically, she decided to kill herself by impaling herself on Dean’s First Blade.

So what was going on in that moment? According to Tessa herself,...

Just in time to showcase the film's presence at Cannes, Lightning Entertainment has unveiled the sales art for the Chupacabra flick Indigenous. It's heavy on atmosphere but a bit light on goat sucker. Now there's something you don't hear everyday, huh?

From the Press Release

As demand for commercial horror/thriller fare continues to rise in the global marketplace, Lightning Entertainment has bolstered its offerings in the space, acquiring international sales rights to two highly sought-after titles, “Indigenous” and “Dark House,” which will debut in Cannes. The announcement was made today by Lightning Entertainment’s Evp & General Manager Ken DuBow.

Castiel has been a fan favorite since first appearing in "Supernatural" Season 4, but the status of Misha Collins, the actor who portrays him, has been in a constant state of flux, going from recurring to regular, back to recurring, and even switching to "Special Guest Star" in Season 8.

He's been considered a series regular this year in Season 9, and things will remain the same for Season 10; however, per TV Guide, the role Castiel will play hinges on how the battle with Metatron is resolved in the season finale, which airs on Tuesday, May 20th.

And we've just gotten hold of the synopsis for said finale, Episode 9.23, "Do You Believe in Miracles?," which you'll find below the summary of the upcoming Episode 9.22, "Stairway to Heaven."

Meanwhile, Castiel is shocked when he learns the angel that caused the attack was one of his followers and did it in his name. Dean discovers there is a conspiracy amongst Castiel’s angel followers, and at the heart of it is Tessa, the Reaper (Lindsey McKeon).

Chupacabra sightings continue to ran rampant throughout the country, and we suspect the only time anyone's really gonna see one of these beasts (or at least someone dressed as one) is in Indigenous, which will be playing at this year's Tribeca Film Festival!

Check out a few stills and the trailer for Indigenous, which premieres as part of Tribeca's Midnight section. Its screening schedule can be found below the synopsis.

Written by Max Roberts and directed by Alastair Orr, the film stars Zachary Soetenga, Lindsey McKeon, Sofia Pernas, Pierson Fode, Jamie Anderson, and Juanxo Villaverde.

Synopsis

A group of five American friends on the cusp of adulthood travel to Panama to relax and reconnect. They befriend a local woman in their hotel bar, and despite some ominous whispers, she goes against the specific instructions of her brother and takes the Americans on a day trip into the pristine falls at the nearby jungle.

I got chills up and down my spine when I read what was posted on Lindsey Mckeon’s Twitter feed. I’m all for Supernatural characters returning, but I feel like the long-running CW series has almost exhausted itself of likable characters to continue bringing back. Remember when Kevin died earlier this season? That death meant nothing to me because he was never someone I enjoyed seeing. On the other hand, Lindsey’s role as Tessa the Reaper has been one I’ve appreciated since her very first appearance in the Season 2 opener “In My Time Of Dying.” So when I heard Mckea was reprising her role, I was immediately worried about her fate.

What got me worried was how Mckeon said on Twitter: “Off to Vancouver to reprise my beloved role as #TessaTheReaper @CW_SPN Stay tuned, you will all be very excited…” What’s with the dot dot dot?...

Chupacabra sightings have been absolutely running rampant in the news this year, with many spotting and even photographing the famed goat-suckers of mythical lore. Perfect timing for a new horror flick starring one of the little buggers, which is headed our way at this year's Tribeca Film Festival!

Check out a few stills from Indigenous, which premieres at next month's festival as part of the Midnight section!

• One Tree Hill alumna Lindsey McKeon has joined 90210‘s upcoming fifth season, Zap2it reports. She’ll become a mentor to Silver after the two bond over their respective Braca gene diagnoses.

Lindsey McKeon is about to run it back on The CW.

The actress (Supernatural, One Tree Hill) has been cast in a recurring role on 90210 Season 5, Zap2It confirms, as she'll debut on episode three this fall and portray Suzanne, a patient who acts as a mentor to Silver, following the latter's diagnosis last season that she's susceptible to breast cancer.

"She's kind of a force of good, but she's sort of the thing that makes Silver realize what her problem has been the whole episode," producer Lara Olsen says of McKeon's Suzanne, who will also be carrying the Braca gene.

90210 kicks off Season 5 on October 8 and fans should expect many casting changes overall. Justin Deeley is exiting as Austin, for example, while Lori Loughlin will return for the premiere.

"Lindsey's playing a person that Silver knows from her Braca gene awareness," executive producer Patti Carr tells us. "She's playing a character who also has the Braca gene."

He gives the doctor a letter for Ben incase something happens to him. Then calls for Tessa in Latin and needs Death, who comes anyway. He only loaned Dean the ring and he knows where Dean's stashed it. Death can break into Lucifer's cage, where both Sam's (Jared Padalecki) and Adam's souls are. Dean wants them both and he can only pick one. No contest as to who he was going to choose. Sam's soul has been there for a year and is damaged. Death offers to put up a wall in Sam's mind so he won't recall anything. Tessa says it's not permanent.
