With writer/director Declan O’Brien’s Joy Ride 3: Road Kill releasing to DVD and Blu-ray this Tuesday, June 17th, here’s additional coverage stemming from our set visit last summer to the same in Winnipeg, Canada.

Written and directed by O'Brien, whose previous horror entries include the Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment features Wrong Turn 3, Wrong Turn 4 and Wrong Turn 5 (as well as Syfy's Sharktopus), Joy Ride 3: Road Kill (review) originated with the 2001 Paul Walker-starring, J.J.

In the all things must come to an end, we present tomorrow (Tuesday, March 13) final installment of MTV's popular movie series, "My Super Psycho Sweet 16: Part 3."

Jillian Rose Reed stars as Sienna in the film, which she tells Zap2it, "is definitely the end."

Is everyone killed off?

"That is a little bit of a surprise," Reed says. "This one definitely sums up all of the questions you are left with from Part 1 and Part 2. Skye Rotter is trying to move on with her life. And, she gets closure."

Though Rose was not in the first two movies, she was a fan.

"They definitely creeped me out," she says. "And I thought how awesome that MTV has this [movie] series to audition for, and so I auditioned. I actually was lucky enough to skip the first round and came in for the chemistry read with Lauren McKnight."

The producers...

"I don't want it to be the end," leading lady Lauren McKnight says of the final film, which airs tonight at 10 p.m. Et on MTV.
