Inspired by the real supernatural phenomena that writer-director William Mark McCullough and his family endured in their home, A Savannah Haunting is a dread-filled, slow-burn supernatural drama about a mother grappling with her guilt stemming from the tragic drowning of her youngest daughter.
The film was shot on location in the actual haunted house in Savannah, Georgia, that has imposed chilling experiences for years.
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive look at the trailer for the film that’s releasing in select theaters and major digital platforms from Vertical Entertainment on October 28, 2022.
“A Savannah Haunting follows a family who moves to Savannah, Georgia to distance themselves from the brutal memories of their daughter’s death. Once in their new home, the mother slowly grows to believe she is being haunted by her dead daughter. They discover a more sinister force may be at work as ties to Savannah’s brutal slave...

[Note: With the film now released in the UK, here’s a reposting of our review of Don’t Look Back from its screening at Frightfest last year]
Writer/director Jeffrey Reddick has a lot of form when it comes to supernatural horror. Not only did he create the long-running Final Destination franchise but he’s also behind the likes of underrated and under-seen supernatural slasher Tamara, Dead Awake and the more recent The Final Wish. All films that play with the idea of the dead returning for revenge on the living in one form or another. And Don’t Look Back is no different.
Don’t Look Back tells the story of Caitlin Kramer, a young woman trying to overcome her traumatic past who, whilst walking through the park one day, sees a man brutally assaulted. However no one intervenes to stop the attack. Instead they all start...

The former Batman played Wayne Enterprises executive Dean West in an unaired episode of “Powerless,” and in tribute to the late performer — who died last week at 88 — NBC and DC have posted “Win, Luthor, Draw” in its entirety on YouTube.

Adam West, TV’s original Batman, has died. He was 88.
West passed away after a short battle with leukemia, his family confirmed on Facebook.
West rose to fame in 1966 as the star of ABC’s Batman, which produced a total of 120 episodes over three seasons before it ended in 1968. Burt Ward, who played Robin, issued the following statement to our sister site Variety:
I am devastated at the loss of one my very dearest friends. Adam and I had a special friendship for more than 50 years. We shared some of the most fun times of our lives together. Our families...

According to Entertainment Weekly, Adam West is set to guest star in an upcoming episode of the DC Comics television show Powerless. Scheduled to play the character Dean West, Chairman of Wayne Industries, he makes his way to Charm City after an attack on Gothan City forces Wayne Industries to make some cut backs to the company. Dean will interact with Van Wayne and Emily Locke, played by Alan Tudyk and Vanessa Hudgens. Adam West had previously been on the show as the narrator for the pilot episode.
Powerless has received mixed reviews since debuting on February 2nd of this year. While I certainly think the premise of the show is interesting and can lead to some good stories with the right group of characters, the show has come off as an Office clone minus the laughs. While some have enjoyed the light hearted aspects of the show, others have criticised the uneven tone,...

Powerless Adam West episode
Powerless - NBC's DC-inspired workplace comedy, which stars Vanessa Hudgens, Alan Tudyk, Danny Pudi and Christina Kirk - has officially been cancelled. TV Line confirmed the news last month.

There were two episodes left to air of the show's first season, but NBC removed both of them from its schedule. One of them, which features the late, great Adam West as a guest star, is now available for fans to watch online.
Here it is...
Here's how Cbr describes the episode, and Adam West's part in it...
"Gotham comes to Charm City when the iconic Adam West, who played the role of Batman on television in the Sixties, guest stars in an upcoming episode of Powerless as Dean West, chairman of Wayne Industries. Following an attack on Gotham City, Wayne Industries has to make some cuts and Mr. West visits Charm City to deliver the bad news to Van and Emily. Will the dynamic duo of Van and Emily be able to save the team at Wayne Security, or are our Charm City Heroes destined for the unemployment line?"
Powerless cancelled
Alan Tudyk has taken to Twitter to lament the cancellation, along with the show's exec producer Patrick Schumacker...

Powerless cast
We don't have a proper trailer for Powerless yet, but we do have a little video featuring some cast chit-chat.
The cast were out in force at the San Diego Comic Con, where they discussed the ramifications of dealing with superhero-based insurance claims and what we can expect from the show - and it seems that Wonder Woman is a name dropped into the fray right from the outset.
"The first claim that Emily Locke is working on is one caused by Wonder Woman," Vanessa Hudgens told DC All Access. "Just sets the tone I think."
You can see the rest of the cast chatting about their roles here:
Also, while chatting to Cbr, Patrick Schumaker has discussed the idea of iconic DC actors showing up as new characters...
"If they’ll let us do it, I would have Jason Momoa show up next season as the Sparkletts guy," Schumaker said. "He’ll never show up as Aquaman. Ben Affleck will never show up as Batman. We can’t rule out that Grant Gustin could show up some other time playing somebody else, that there’s a little bit of a crossover. You have so much license, given the high-concept nature of this show, I think you have a lot of license.
"The idea of a multiverse, I think, gives you license to have an actor from one of the other shows show up playing somebody different," he added. "Because who’s to say in this world that Barry Allen or Wally West – Barry Allen if it's Grant – isn’t a courier? He doesn’t have any powers, necessarily. Or maybe he does, and we just never show it. Maybe he’s the FedEx guy."
Schumaker revealed that the Easter eggs have actually already begun: "the actor who played Jimmy Olsen in Richard Donner’s original Superman, Marc McClure [...] He actually stands in for Emily’s father in the pilot. So we already kind of start with some little Easter egg-y stuff that alludes to the films and other media that have existed, historically, for DC Comics."
It's worth pointing out that Momoa, Gustin and Affleck have hardly been confirmed - not by a long stretch - but it's exciting to know the powers that be are open to some fun fan-pleasing ideas.

Also, here's the latest synopsis, courtesy of Cbr:
"In a world where humanity must cope with the collateral damage of Super Heroes and Super-Villains, Emily Locke (Vanessa Hudgens) begins her first day as Director of Research & Development for Wayne Security, a subsidiary of Wayne Enterprises that specializes in products that make defenseless bystanders feel a little safer. Full of confidence and big ideas, Emily quickly learns that her expectations far exceed those of her new boss (Alan Tudyk) and officemates, so it will be up to her to lead the team toward their full potential and the realization that you don’t need superpowers to be a hero."

Fans of The Hunger Games will be pretty pissed at this one, but I don't think filmmakers Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer (known for quite funny 300 spoof Meet the Spartans and Twilight spanker Vampires Suck, care much. The names of the characters in The Starving Games are quite funny, with Maiara Walsh of TV's Switched at Birth and Zombieland series playing Kantmiss Evershot as opposed to Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen in the super-successful Hunger Games franchise, the second film of which opens on November 22nd via Lionsgate. Hysterically, there's even Hugh Janus and...Jason Statham? I mean hell, there's even Iron Man and Nick Fury in this poster below. Also in the cast are Cody Allen Christian, Brant Daugherty, Ross Wyngaarden, Dean West and Diedrich Bader.
