Announcement: “SEQUELLAND: A STORY OF DREAMS AND SCREAMS” Dishes Dirt On Direct-To-Video

Tuesday, May 26, 2020 | Books

Do you lie awake at night wondering why a movie like Jaws: The Revenge ever gets green lit? Do you gaze out the rainy window into an uncaring world, baffled as to what the fuck was going on with Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2? Do you regularly use the existence of The Howling II:…Your sister Is A Werewolf as proof that God doesn’t exist? Well, we finally have the answers for why so many horror sequels suck balls so very hard, and the answer shockingly doesn’t involve deals with Pazuzu.

Proven masochist Jay Slayton-Joslin delved into the soulless, seedy underbelly of Hollywood to find out the answers, and emerged the other side covered in direct-to-video quality slime to pen SEQUELLAND: A STORY OF DREAMS AND SCREAMS.

Jay sits down with the broken souls behind some of the greatest horror sequel flops, finding out what went wrong, whether it be budget, writing, in-fighting or as is usually the case, good old-fashioned hubris.
