Exclusive: Janel Parrish (Pretty Little Liars) and Jonathan Bennett (Mean Girls) have signed on to star in Myles Clohessy’s indie horror film, The Bog.
They join previously announced cast members Mark Ryder (Borgia), Timothy Murphy (Westworld) and Robert Clohessy (Blue Bloods) in the film, which goes into production in Ireland and Scotland in October.
Inspired by haunting true events, The Bog tells the story of two couples, led by a troubled Collette (Parrish), who intertwined through friendship, unknowing infidelity and a tragic family death, decide to take an epic hiking trip into the remote Scottish Highlands to get away from it all, reconnect and stay at one of the secluded ancient cottages that dot the area. What starts as the time of their lives—and a much-needed, doctor-requested couples retreat—quickly spirals out of control for the group of friends in the isolated, harrowing mountain territory.

Director: Jourdan McClure. Writer: Ryan Finnerty and Jourdan McClure. Cast: Bill Oberst Jr., Hannah Levien, Whitney Nielsen, Nich Kauffman and Galen Howard. Children of Sorrow is an indie film from Rogue River (2009) creators Ryan Finnerty and Jourdan McClure. The film's story focuses on an isolated cult in the desert. Here, one man brings twelve followers on a journey to hell; few survive the trip. Children of Sorrow also focuses on one villainous character, while more heroic characters are simply forgotten. Light on conflict but full of disturbing and awkward scenes, Children of Sorrow is a harrowing tale set in the depths of madness. The story is centered on one man - Simon Leach (Bill Oberst Jr.). This character calls himself the Father, but this is not one man you would want in your family life. The Father recruits several impressionable twentysomethings. Once interviewed and indoctrinated, the followers are slowly brought...

Every horror fan has their own idea of what’s authentically frightening, but for me personally, successful horror goes straight for the kill by getting to the root of what scares us on a primal, inherently human level. It touches nerves and stirs fears that live deep inside all of us. We’re unsettled, disturbed, and maybe even provoked as a result. Children of Sorrow is the type of film that successfully does all this and more by drawing us into the lives of some truly fascinating characters.
The film introduces us to cult leader Simon Leach (Bill Oberst Jr.) and a group of desperate teens he has assembled together in a Mexico desert compound to help him realize his personal vision of faith and spiritual growth. The latest member of the group is Ellen (Hannah Levien), a young woman searching for her sister who...

The After Dark Film Festival is one of this reviewer's favourite annual events. Every year, After Dark Films comes out with an interesting slate of underground horror titles. This year, After Dark has already announced the attachment of the horror films: Asylum, Red Clover, and Dark Circles to their 2013 line-up. Children of Sorrow has also been attached to the film festival as of today. Children of Sorrow, from director Jourdan McClure (Rogue River), involves an isolated cult. Simon Leach (Bill Oberst Jr.) is the leader of the cult and Leach has plans to take advantage of his many followers. Few will escape the confines of his heavily surveilled ranch and few will forget McClure's latest film. Fans of horror can preview the movie poster for the film here. The graphic shows Leach in a Christ like pose, with a brilliant sun in the background. However, Leach is no saviour. Director: Jourdan McClure.

After Dark Films, the company behind the “8 Films To Die For” horror film series (aka After Dark Horrorfest), has revealed that the fourth entry in their second “After Dark Originals” lineup will be the cult thriller Children of Sorrow. Directed by Jourdan McClure (read our interview with McClure about his film Rogue River) and written by Ryan Finnerty (Rogue River, Smosh), Children of Sorrow stars veteran horror actor Bill Oberst Jr. (who shocked the social media world in the interactive thriller Take This Lollipop) as cult leader Simon Leach, whose desert commune seems like the promised land for his troubled followers... who are unaware of his more sinister intentions. “Belongingness can be a terrifying subject, even more so when acceptance is disingenuous,” McClure says. “Children of Sorrow is the nightmare version of that."

After Dark Originals, which features a combination of originally produced and acquired films, has announced the fourth film in its second series, the Jourdan McClure-directed Children of Sorrow, which brings us a “petrifying look into a cult psyche.”
After Dark Horrorfest was an incredible thing for the horror genre, snatching up and distributing independently produced horror flicks and packaging them up in their nifty “8 Films to Die For” banner. While only a small handful of them were truly good flicks (Lake Mungo and Frontier(s) are incredible), there’s no denying that After Dark was doing a damned good thing for budding filmmakers and fans as a whole.

Late last year, it was announced that she teamed up with Scott Spiegel for a new feature, titled Die, Maniacs, Die!, and I recently had a chance to learn more about the upcoming movie and a new horror convention she’s working on.
You started writing for a number of horror publications and eventually began representing talent through your own management firm. That’s not the usual path I see journalists take in the industry. Can you tell me how this all came about?

This thriller, that features a cult and its maniacal leader, has also won awards at the Sacramento Horror Film Festival (Best Feature, Best Acting). Currently, Children of Sorrow is in distribution negotiations and a release date for this title will be announced shortly. Actor Bill Oberst Jr. might be best known, outside of acting ability, for partaking in over 75 murders in his various films. Oberst has eviscerated, disemboweled, and hacksawed through these characters in films such as Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies, and Scary or Die. A graphic (seen below) documents some of the forms of murder that this actor has portrayed onscreen; the methods are gruesome and numerous. Click for larger Children of Sorrow Release Date: 2013.

With the teaser trailer for the Full Moon feature Reel Evil having hit the web today, we caught up with one of the flick’s actresses, Jamie Bernadette, to discuss the Danny Draven-directed, Charles Band-produced found-footage film.
Written by Shane Bitterling, Reel Evil follows (according to the film’s synopsis) “struggling filmmakers Kennedy, Cory and James, who finally catch the break they are looking for when they are hired to shoot a behind-the-scenes documentary for a major studio production. But their dream job quickly turns into a nightmare when they explore the legendary haunted location and find something far worse than anything Hollywood could create. Terror becomes reality for the filmmakers as they uncover the malevolent secrets of the hospital and the sinister doctor who once ran it.” Rounding out the cast are Jessica Morris, Jim Tavaré, Kyle Morris, Christian Edsall, Sandra Hinojosa, Michael Cline, Jeffrey Adler and Lino Dumont.

Synopsis
Children of Sorrow, a young woman embeds herself in a cult looking for answers to her sister's disappearance, only to find a dark secret within the cult and an even darker secret within herself.
Director Jourdan McClure says, "Children Of Sorrow is unlike anything I thought I would do. It’s really my attempt at a P.O.V Mocku-horror film with roots in the slice of life genre. The story is told through the lenses of diegetic devices. This is not found footage but the style utilizes elements of the Ff aesthetic along with the documentary presentation to make something unnerving and interesting."

Shot in a found footage or pseudo-documetary style, fans of horror can have an early look at this film below. A release date is forthcoming. Director: Jourdan McClure. Writer: Ryan Finnerty. Cast: Bill Oberst Jr., Hannah Levien and Whitney Nielsen.

*here be major spoilers. Director: Jourdan McClure. Writers: Ryan Finnerty and Kevin Haskin. Cast: Michelle Page, Art Alexakis, Chris Coy, Michael Cudlitz, Lucinda Jenney, and Bill Moseley. Tagline: "Still waters run deep." Rogue River is the second project that this reviewer has seen from Kejo Productions. The other was a thriller titled Sensored starring Robert Picardo. Sensored was a entertaining outing. Rogue River is less thrilling and more predictable. Even a theme of incest only creates a few unsettling moments. This film, which clocks in at a mere eighty-one minutes, is not really recommended for horrors fans seeking something really frightening. The film follows Mara (Michelle Page) on her journey to bury her father's ashes. She is interrupted by a friendly man, Jon (Bill Moseley). He wants to help her after her car has been stolen. Or, does he want to help himself to Mara when he has her back at an isolated cabin?...

Ever wonder what the kids from Home Improvement are up to these days? Well, when it comes to Zachery Ty Bryan, who played the oldest Taylor kid, Brad, the answer might surprise you. He's producing movies, including the shocking horror flick Rogue River, that hits the shelves this week.
So, how did he transition from a teen heartthrob to a behind-the-scenes dealmaker? About four years ago, he and his long-time friend Adam Targum (a writer/ producer on CSI: New York) decided they wanted to approach the entertainment industry from an entirely different angle. They figured that their diverse blend of skill sets would make them a unique team in the production realm, and set about finding scripts to bring to fruition under the banner of Vision Entertainment Group.

Let's be honest: when you see Bill Moseley in a movie, you automatically assume he will be the bad buy. That's not a bad thing - he so so good at playing bad. In his new movie, Rogue River, directed by Jourdan McClure, Bill plays Jon, a good guy - for about five minutes. Jon lures a young woman named Mara into a false sense of security by introducing her to his lovely wife, Lea, but things quickly start to fall apart as Jon and Lea try to force a new family dynamic in the most brutal way possible. In reality, Bill is jovial, friendly, and the complete opposite of the demented characters he has played over his 30-year career. On the eve of Rogue River's release (it is available on DVD June 5th), we chatted with the...

On the surface, Rogue River sounds like a pretty generic abduction film. A young woman named Mara goes to a secluded, peaceful part of the river to spread her father's ashes. She strikes up a conversation there with a man named John (played by Bill Moseley, so you know he will turn out to be demented), who offers her a ride when she discovers her car has been stolen. Everything in town is closed for the night, so he invites her home to his wife, Lea. Naturally, bad stuff ensues. What sets Rogue River apart from the pack is the beautiful photography, the peaceful setting, the outstanding performances, and subtle, layered themes. We talked with director Jourdan McClure about all this, and more. What was the...

Genre favorite Bill Moseley is once again bringing his one-of-a-kind abilities to an upcoming horror film. Moseley stars in the movie Rogue River, which is due to hit DVD on June 5. Read on to hear from the man himself!
Moseley recently took the time to sit down with Dread Central and tell us all about Rogue River and some of his other intriguing upcoming projects as well.
Moseley remarked that working on Rogue River was especially fulfilling for him because of one of his co-stars. "I knew what I was getting into," Moseley said."It was the first time I'd ever worked with my girlfriend, Lucinda Jenney, who plays Lea. That was a lot of fun.
